Long Greeters Poems

Gold is your soul


The drive there will be boring.
The arrival so momentous!
The disappointing greeters;
The sights not quite as expected.
The smell at times will be rancid.
The art of it all will be lost.
They will say “Welcome...

I awoke to find 
that Jack Frost had paid a visit 
to my bedroom windows
for the very first time 
this Winter.

If only I had seen him at work
I would have thanked him
for decorating 
my otherwise...

My dream vacation flies me to the Holy Land
where my Saviour spent His earthly existence sublime…

There in Bethlehem, I will behold the Emmanuel’s humble birthplace
and be seized with gripping condescension-pangs
cognizant that the glorious King of...

I'll admit being green is not the easiest thing,

The forest floor stretches drum tight, bound by verdant slopes, a timpani of sound.
First greeters of rain’s onslaught, leaves trill joy, form larger drops, a deeper sound

While tires rumble freeways flowing through suburban sprawl like...

Across the limpid and serene river, the oasis of the Wild West pioneers,
there are ivory and charcoal peaks waiting for mountaineers
to discover as they rest under the long-leafed pines that sway;
on this side, the saw-tooth...

Everything has an END
The time I spEND
And sentiments I intEND
With my family and friENDS
But not with Jesus

Everything has an END
The breath I expEND
Trying to drive a point to its END
Maybe just driven crazy as one...

You have read my adventures
Along with Etto my droid
We are fighters of evil
As we leave them destroyed

But where am i from
I hear you all ask
I'm from Cygnus-X1
Where we live true without masks

Where you stay

Christmas Cheer

My aunt was very old and lived alone,
But loved in a way no-one can fathom,
So at Christmas time I visited her tidy,
To chat, converse, laugh and rhythm.

I had flushed cheeks from stepping out,
And coming...

Serenading voices of snow geese thrum in the morning sky
Unrivaled is the clangor of their echoed gabbles in October
Songs of Fall ride on the wind as russet leaves begin to fly
Unrobed are trees; stripped bare,...

Ghost Buster’s Eve
‘Tis the time
to shoot slime.

Adults Only Costume Party
Sex kittens prance.
Sultry nurses dance.

Party Food
Served eyeball soup
and goopity goop

A Bobbing Good Time?
Apple I get;
face sopping wet!

House of Creeps
The chainsaw guy
made me cry

A-Maze-ing Fright
Lost girl walks

Cork The Hole!
" Luv's-A-Leakin "
What does God see, what does He think?
Where will man, his value, place?
Will it be in this physical birdhouse,
or in the crafter's smiling face?

And what if this birdhouse should become
part of...

Skylark spread your wings
Pull yourself up from the ground
Trust in the currents

One foot can lift you
Out to meet the starry night
Release yourself soon

Energy is faint
Yet the heart beats with power
We can not lift you

Seen through the window by fireplace illuminating fuel,
Is a family gathering celebrating the Yule;
A union of Noël greeters in wondrous delight
Expresses warmth, joy, and happiness within the house.
Wishing each Merry Christmas with sincerity...

glib glassy green-eyed gruesome ghoulish goblins grabbing gloriously
glitzy glimmers of gourmet garnish.  Giants give garbled ghosts gruff
growls.  Gargantuous groups of glamorous gargoyles give greeters
goopy green gravy.  Garbanzos grab globs of giant gamblling...

Radiation lobby,
filled with unspoken sense.
I see a community of fighters and partners.
The partners are
the curious who know.
They sit using books as blinders,
or sitting watching others.
They are family waiting.

The fighters are strugglers,
arriving with smiles or stone...

gorgeous escorts welcome folks to her throne with pleasure.

Strong roots like muscles fix these plants tightly to the fence.
Each stalk seems to bow, flexing its backbone with pleasure.

and down swoops an angel...
