The sign on the door said, 
Come one and come all
We welcome the short
and we welcome the tall

From the east or the west
or some place in between
Whether yellow or...

   In grandma’s kitchen smelling the fresh sweet aroma of her cooking and baking

Brigitte my love
Our Country suffers of many debts
The people are restless
Whatever shall we do love?

Ah Macron, we must think past the cookies
The solutions are complex, answers evasive
Let me speak with Marie Antoinette, she shall know!

I’m going to sea in a blueberry boat,
macaroon waves I will sail
Far past the girls and the buoys I’ll float,
maybe spout off to a whale

My crew at the ready but still half a sleep,
I’ll have...

I could  have  used  Facebook
To send you a ping
I  could  have  downloaded
A  birthday  card  from Bing
I  could  have  used   Messenger ...

chakra shot, aura ignored
inner peace left unexplored
feelings sans a sounding board
blest I’ve left the mindless horde

friends, none that lie to me
or neighbors that like to see

They sent me on a spaceship to walk on this dusty moon
I looked back upon planet Earth which almost made me swoon
I came to meet a Clanger and I hoped I’d meet one soon
But I...

For years Willie has saved his money,
investing it in stocks and bonds,
waiting to sit in his recliner 
each quarter with a martini 
reviewing his profits.
They often warrant 
another martini.

On the dark chocolate side of The Milky Way

The planets all look like cookies and donuts
Boys and girls grow to be bakers and astronauts

They have five different...

Oh Moon, come slumber on my chest of sand dune
Let your moonlight drizzles engulf this land in June
Sing! So the sandstorm dances with your flowing tune
Oh Lunar beam! Your touch wreaks fame and fortune
Cross the...

Just sitting, sipping tea with the Moon; 
Across she glows in her party dress,
I send my dreams up on a balloon; 

With each soft gaze ideas are strewn; 
Under this sky it’s easy to decompress,...

Anna and the French Kiss
Beckon from above
Should I quit this painting 
For the face I love

Shall I paint the Left Bank
Sitting on this bench
Or be teaching Anna
In my broken French

From the Eiffel Tower
Anna calls in...

Taste me, I’m sweet like macaroon.
This meeting today was highly opportune.

So many adventures to plan,
Drink my fill; seek to understand.

Enmeshed and ensconced, I bathe.
The moon’s craters burn and blaze.

Too hot for me, I begin to...

Passover’s coming so soon, so soon
  In two more orbits of the moon, the moon
Please take a matzo or a macaroon, macaroon
  And sing us a festival tune, tune... 

At least matzo ball...

Soft life had decided to give In  
A glass of vanilla yoghurt    
A piece of cake for breakfast  
A plate of macaroon for lunch  
And some pasta for supper...
