Ah the glory of a restful sleep

Ah... the glory of a restful sleep

Nothing beats the refreshing
blissful peaceful easy feeling
resulting from shut-eye after
feeling zonked out staying up
late after a hard day's night
binge reading or slaving o'er
crafting an umpteenth brilliant
masterpiece a comment from

Wind Song

I was a professional flutist, and performed in orchestras and symphonies,
To express the sheer joy of living, like the birds sing to summer's breeze.

Becoming accomplished took many years, and I'd played since childhood,
As a late...

MULBERRY TREES AND BUTTERFLIES 

Don’t go back to heavy sleep
dwell in the wakefulness

The day the asteroid arrived the dinosaurs were playing,
With toys and bats and balls and things, some dancing jigs and swaying.
Young Betty Brontosaurus was renowned for being dim,
She was running on a treadmill in her...

Terrorists

Terrorism is a villainous violence, 
Used by those who disagree,
Bloodshed breaks the somber silence,
Between those who feel unfree. 

However, when one disagrees
With how the system works,
They are targeted by an intelligent team
Of thieves who wear...

Ribbitt

There once were three magical pigs.
They were neighbors that danced the jig.
The wolf in the valley
Sometimes walked down their alley.
He was hungry for one of those pigs!

Pig-one lived in a house made of straw.
He looked...

on such divine evenings -

aye …

on such
divine evenings, thus,
are perfect odes not freely spun?
the Perseids, dancing their
jocund jigs -
capricious, evanescent stripes of
golden ire under a tapestry
of wonders …
watching rapt, ever-attentive,
streaking, burning ephemeral, as if the
gods themselves trace their
fingertips gently...

As the first rays of sunshine
wakes me out of my sleepy slumber,
I sat up in bed and looked at my hands.
The taste of stale cigarette smoke of cheap red wine

His Mighty

A waterdrop off a leaf into a pond
He keeps monkeys and trees, bond
And works zebras for donkeys

He sprinkles scent on flowers 
And enchants buffaloes for mowers
He spells vultures...

Writ Uals

when we married we

each with a lit candle
were asked to light
one with our two

we burned unity

our individuality out 
but this we did

The Homeless Girl

Young and solitary homeless girl
With sky-colour eyes
Wearing a haggard 
And consumed makeup

The blond hair that betrays 
Your young age
Melted like golden filaments
On minute shoulders

Soon you were taken 
From the jigs
With your friends
That now share with...

Heathen warriors dressed in the plaid
Victims of time and an evil brigade
Pursue their beliefs far into the South
Gaelic words from a Jacobite mouth

Like bairns against many a gun
The highlanders decided to run
Not for home and...

The Lephrechauns

In the Village of Wearing the Green,
townsfolk were getting ready to celebrate
their annual St. Paddy's Day with much flair,
flowing golden locks were dyed to green hair.

Sewing machines hummed and buzzed along,

Tickled Silly

An idea whispers,
sneaking in on cat’s paws,
a sly grin curling at the edges,
as I sip morning coffee, unaware.

It dances on tiptoes,
skipping across my mind,
twirling, pirouetting,
a ballerina in a china shop.

My thoughts, the porcelain,
shatter in its...

With each turn of the tide,
The beach opens up wide, 
The Irish sands stretch for many a mile;
And all around can be seen
More than forty shades of green,
There’s so many things in Ireland to make...
