Long Regency Poems

Upwards
By your masterful and well 
Practiced hand.
To mingle with ever changing 
Skylines 
That frown down with arrogant 
Scowls
Upon the indigenous populous of 
This just and tolerant island.
To study and pontificate upon...

MY BUCKET LIST

Years and years ago, I made a bucket list.
I looked everywhere and could not find it.

so it’s time for a new one to be created

Amélie Beth Harris -McGeehan

Acknowledgment of birthday gal,
whose invaluable priceless worth
exceeds more'n a bajillion dollars.

Rise from the table...
Push back your chair.
Gather them all up...
Put them out of sight now...
Place them safely in the cupboard 
Bare.
Wrapped in stiff brown paper,
Strung tightly together
With thin white string;
Turn...

Five miles of neatly spaced suckered palm planted 
Bustling promenade,
Not withstanding a provincial cafe-culture 
Of restaurants and exciting little bars,
Enhance upon regal elegance of the crammed hotels
Regency period style facades;
Their fashionable shadows slowly lifting and...

Sit here a moment I pray
I wish to speak a little

Intuition flares,
prancing in ostentatious circles,
feather-tip proud.
Lugubrious grey wigs 
speckle gregariously
bedecked by flamboyant gems:
they flicker frustratingly

Our collective eyelid
flutters closed:

foliage awakening across the dene,
here a spring morning reigns serene.

SPRING DAWN

In the heavens;
 Then the dark;
Blackness spies;
as the light;
Shimmers explosions;
 Sparkling granulex surprised;
 Regency surpasses the dark;
 as the dark changes to light;
Encompassing fathoms rims delight;
Shine on past sparkles flash;
Bouillon seas flashes of lightning spryte;...

who gave the roar of his hoarse voice
couching before our queen, the moon 
couching with many rays of songs!

& his sharp eyes did like some prodigals
beckon the benevolence of...
