Spring Break V - Russians On Miami Beach
I.
The Fish Crow is an outcast amongst the seagulls
Standing on the hot Miami sand
At the end
Of our rose-colored beach towel
Nodding and blabbing half-heartedly
Nuh-uh nuh-uh
To the lack of crumbs
From us
The stingy blue collar visitors
From freezing old...

Endeavors
Arthur Nelson was a curious, studious fellow, like pearly moon glowing,
Ten years old and spectacled, for all is adventure, when you're growing.
Arthur lived in a one story home, with his brothers and their parents;
And also...

One Square Mile
In one square mile, northeast of Noojee,
there are seven birds that I often get to see
as I walk on the tracks in pristine forestry,
in one square mile, northeast of Noojee.
A Whipbird crack through ti-tree scrub,

Fun In the Sun
Flesh on show and sun tan lotion
bodies laid on towels or sun lounges
By the ocean
Salty air wind blown hair
Music streaming from the near by fair
Baby screaming nappies full
Cool guys looking for babes on the...

Beachfront condos shrouded in the early mist
of morning. Seagulls hanging on the breeze,
their screeching waking sleepyheads
before their coffee, it's July the 4th,
the holiday is here!
Sailboats daubed in milky opalescence

Telemark
Imagine a world if they made it first
Their want to dominate would continue to thirst
Heavy Water to be their goal
More innocent lives, more lost souls
The German want for Nuclear Arms
Brought them to, Telemark's charms

Toys of Yesteryear
Toys of Yesteryear
Some of you have seen these.
Simple, beautiful toys.
Played on the living room carpet.
Sometimes on our knees.
Some right on an oil clothed
kitchen table.
No hang ups about the sexuality
of girls and boys.
In those days, we...

Song of the Evening
SONG OF THE EVENING
In a lullaby song of the evening.
In the background a cricket sings,
corellas fly past, to their resting tree
high upon silhouette wings.
Red sky widens and covers the west
with half sun glowing and...

Summer Sight
Summer sight
Ripples of the river, in addition, current of the slope
And canoe's shake, ahead lover's smiley face
Foam like milky run, sprinkles of icy flakes
Scatters of cold drops, and sprinters of river's
Funniest on earth I was...

Sheep And Other Animals
I: Sheep
(A poem about Covid)
next door to 19 chimneys
and 'the dark satanic mills'
a flock of sheep is grazing
oblivious in the hills.
II: Other Animals
(They do all exist!)
goblin sharks and pangolins
sea pigs, star-nosed moles
mata matas, sugar...

The trudging pathways lead me to beach lands.

Slight drizzle from the clouds, into the coco nut grove I move, on...

The Crows Beak
Winters frost appeared one morn.
A black majestic crow, stands stern on my porch,
Early hunter, seeking food for his born.
He poses with dignity, eyes piercing black,
A back of iron, hunting prey as a lion.
A predator with...

Dunstable Downs
A hillside of walkers gathering slow
blend with the gold medal fields all aglow.
Kites finding freedom, flutter and flow
as looping Red Kites begin to swoop low.
Families with picnics bask in the sun
whilst ice-cream smeared children playfully...

watching the last of the sunlight descend o'er the lake
Peaceful wings soar above our heads and we smile
as we shimmy through the...

Seed Gliders
Canary yellow flowers herald in the spring.
So bold are we sitting in sea of green.
Most grown-ups look at us as weeds.
They pluck, dig, spray and mow with limited success.
The curse, when our yellow flowers turn...

Model Airplanes
I have a fascination
With things that can take flight
Not so much with birds
But gliders, planes and kites
Then as a grade school kid
Different kites I would build
From string, sticks and newspaper
And then fly them on the...

Solo Flight
It gave me a thrill
To fly a plane
Alone in the sky
Since I was a kid
Always loved planes
Knew someday I’d fly
Growing up I did
Kites and gliders
And then model planes
Then out of college
Took the giant step
Flying the...
