Cruisin'

All aboard the Fantasy M/S of Carnival
for half a week’s vacation time of fun and falderal.
Hear greetings from your captain, his director and the crew.
Ready, set, get going.  The Bahamas wait for you.

Bon Voyage!...

My Best Vacation Ever

We set sail as Reggae music played out on the Lido.
Our first night was casual; no need for tuxedo.
We could eat a pizza by the Windows On the Sea
or go beneath and dine on shrimp...

One Night With the Mjq (For Sue M)

It was a night I'll always remember,
I've told this tale so oft,
Sometimes I forget, and on my 3rd repeat
My friends think my mind has gone soft

But it's way back, maybe "69,
I was but a teenager...

Without a Horse

A man without a car is a poor fellow,
It’s like a cowboy without a horse, a lonely soul,
He doesn’t know what to do or who to visit in the ranches,
He walks alone in Los Angeles...

waiting patiently in the long PSoup line
Each got an able, ready pen in their hand,

It’s worth the wait to get some...

One For the Road (Or, Redneck Piggly Wiggly

At precisely 6:45 each morning
the house, it starts to shake
I don't need a clock
Oh no, for godness sake...

Big Ol' Redneck Piggly Wiggly
goes roaring off to war
I thing I'd rather listen
To seven people snore
His truck must...

Magical Christmas Dinner

Impromptu early dinner
Before party crowds arrive
December festive décor
Christmas carols in the air
Far from holiday shopping madness
Dining halls extremely peaceful
All truly mesmerizing and ever so perfect
Surely this is how heaven be

The fireplace ablaze and crackling
The jeweled...

Gardens - After Dark

Gardens – After Dark

Buddha sits stoically observing his garden.
The Gnomes snore as the Fairies toss and turn
asleep on the soft petals of flowers.  The impish
Pixies party with the flashy fireflies.
Nocturnal seekers. Mice, forever paranoid,
scurry...

Love Don'T Sweat

Written By:  D. Collins 12/1/15


Love don’t sweat in rain, sleet, or snow.
It’ cool, calm,  and collected in dealing with foes.
It doesn’t worry.  God gives it an upper hand.
A decisive advantage over every...

An Appetizer

The food was chased by a bent tine fork
Along the surface of a smooth glass plate,
Eventually was skewered with brute force torque.

A similar force confronted an unyielding cork
But for this event, on this mechanical date,

Familiar Stranger

You know him
This man you never met
You know him

You've seen that walk before,
the cool, confident stride
You've seen that smile before,
perfect white teeth
with a grin a mile wide

You know him
This man you never met
You know him

You've...

Vagabond

C'est aussi simple qu'une phrase musicale.

He is driven by the music in his mind.
Images swirl and almost coalesce...
toujours guide par le son
insaisisable de cette musique...
I merely listen and record.
What makes the music in his head?

Raw Love Celebration

You incite me 
You're exciting
Are you providing a sheltered love?
No objection

I need your thoughtful care

Delicious affection a heavenly constellation

Raw winged spell bound 
Roaring anticipation

The Cost of Water

Flight of stillness;
idle,
ditch-wise.

Ladders point up
but they say the ground is greater;
sunlight knitting to their brown feet green socks.
They crestfall and
buckle at the knee.

Hear guts clap thunder off somewhere else
but no storm in sight to maitre...

Pollinators Attend Rose Feast

Coiffed petals glad tidings tell
Vintage red cup raised to the sun
Whose heat mellows hearth's veil
Enticing host signals feast hath begun
Aromatic vial with sweet scents stew
Hypnotizing fumes already suitors cue
Maitre d' winged banqueters will review
Whizzing minstrels...

We couldn't see the turmoil past their swirling smoke
Something strange although ? Seeking for a gesture her children
Granted this clarity should not be given; at least, in his physical realm

A Pleasant Fall Evening In Rochester, Ny

A small stretch of bar to call my own:
I cover it with my paper and a thin book of poems - 
Most I don't understand at all
Some, unfortunately, I understand too well.
