Stillness
I was a learned meteorologist, studying azure atmosphere and vivid weather,
To give a prophetic daily forecast, like bees gliding remote locales of heather.
Often I had to issue advisories and warnings, like a jumbo roar of...

Some Places I'Ve Called Home
Home is where the heart is,
Or so the saying goes.
There Is really much more than this,
As everyone, surely, knows.
Home is where you hang your hat,
Is another slogan that Is nifty.
There’s much, much more than that

Daisy Daze
I was a successful, fashionable florist, in mild green days of elegant gardens,
When an orange sun beamed its pleasure, like locales where lavender begins.
I formed arrangements for many occasions, drawing beauty lovers from afar,
As pretty...

On the Catwalk
In numerous locales countrywide, they hold sway
Pirouetting at intervals like ballerinas from Bolshoi
Beauteous, feline and very feminine
Slender to the point of emaciation, not quite
Cultivating the undernourished look on a frugal diet
Decidedly austere for a longer...

Mein kampf synonymous as a blooper
Mein kampf synonymous as a blooper
Writer of these words,
a former Lower Providence inhabitant,
who dwelled within darkest depths
of Dante Alighieri's inferno
for most of his outlandish, impish,
and devilish growing up years
witnessed microscopic scrimmage,
where spermatozoan with most forcefulness
muscled...

John B. Jackson
1880-1911
Norma knew.
Norma, my erstwhile friend of a thousand hunts;
Only she knew the feel of my beading thumb,
As we sought out promising locales, and
Our clever quarry, from points near and far.
From the salty marshes...

Stranger Still
She's the enemy to whom I've yet to be
Formally introduced --
Her sites set on my
Tennis bracelet or clutch...
She glowers.
There's something off about her hair
It's color strange and unreasonable.
She dons a skirt too short
And tight...

Critterature: The Peculiar Plight of the Poor Pitiable Octopus
To the ancient Norse he was Kraken
With a mean inclination,
And the Greeks called him Gorgon
With the same reputation.
But as monster of myths
He's been wrongly miscast,
So I'm here to shed new light
On this poor creature, at...

Who, What and Why
Fanatical Clerics feed religious fervour,
by rousing fanatics to kill - as an observer
can see almost daily on the TV today.
No thought given to victims, who they
regard as inconsequential in their quest
to become martyrs. When...

Ada McDonald
1873-1906
This is a mistake!
A huge contretemps indeed!
A foul up of the most egregious kind!
You see, it wasn’t my time yet,
This death thing; I had things to do still.
I had places yet to visit I...

Happiness of Life
Creasing Out Happiness
My little luxuries of life I refuse to barter
With Solomon's or Queen Sheba's treasures
Its ecstasy bewitches and beguiles me
As pirates to laden vessels to surfeit
Scrubbed and freshened from bath salts
I prepare for my...

Christmas Is
CHRISTMAS IS…
A time for family,
Festivities and joy.
Anticipation for
Each girl and boy.
A time to relax,
Catch up on rest.
Eat much that will put
Suit sizes to the test.
Music will sound
In many locales.
Jubilation from choirs
And professional chorales.
Some will celebrate
The...

The Arab Cavalry Ride For Locales Damascene, and To Freshen Anew the Long-Vanished Gardens Cordovan
On caparisoned, filleted camels do they
Over the great, soft, tawny sands
Ride;
Unfurled flags and tribal standards flown amidst them,
In the very midst of them-
Of they, who astride great tan camels,
Seem rather scandent and...

Frontier Days
Fort Worth to El Paso, a long stretch of tracks
Deputies securing Wells Fargo money sacks,
With reins in hand, stagecoach en route
Jessie’s gang kicks dust, chasing the loot.
Oil lamps hanging on the tavern’s post
Saloons filled with...

Ruffled Feathers
RUFFLED FEATHERS
We tramp through tall grass
water up to our ass
to disturb wild, winged creatures
and to photograph their awesome features.
We use the greek and latin names
when speaking to our pals
We chase birds from one nest
to strange...

A Dozen Octobers In Montauk
Fishing rods and reels, and bicycle wheels,
gentle thousand yard stare,
daisies in the dunes, measured afternoons
all without a damn care.
Bake shop coffee and wet shore like toffee,
Hampton Star in my lap,
on the beach sipping, salty...

No Clue
Younger people have no clue
That many things they like to do
Will, one day, prove to be too much,
By slipping from an aging clutch.
The rah-rah-rah and go-go-go
Of constant moving starts to slow.
The parties lasting through the...

Sweet Memories
Long after the joys are gone
The bitter sweet memories remain
Of our unforgettable companions
And the exotic, exciting locales
The few precious moments of real joy
We savored in freedom and abandon
Away from an unfriendly world
That had vowed to...
