We Made Ice Cream
I remember! 
  Cranking that old wore-out handle on that ice cream maker, until I thought my 
arms were going to fall off.  Having a big smile on my face, as I turned...

Premium Member Of Watermelons On the Vine and Rock Salt In the Pants
This story I am about to unfold,
is a favorite about my Grandfather.
In which he starts out acting very bold,
yet ends, running up a painful lather.

Down the dirt road, where he lived, when young,
was a farmer...

Mountain Of Mango Ice-Cream

It seems ages since we were young and untamed, enjoying rural pleasures
Summers were long and mango ice-cream sessions a ritual in the evenings
A thin custard was made of fresh buffalo milk and...

Pillar of Salt and Wisdom
As Lot and his wife
Left the city of Sodom
Where gnosis flourished
His wife heard Yaldabaoth’s wrath
As the two lands burned
Hearing the children crying
Her heart made blood tears
It ripped from top to bottom
Hearing the calm call
Of gnosis...

Premium Member Had Times Been Different
Down the long graveled road
Flanked by woods with filtered sun
Evening sun signaling me to abode
Where the bitterweed blooms,I run

Join family outside in the twilight
With the moon rising in the East
Offering some soft evening light
Fireflies begin...

A Letter To Winter and Spring
Dear Winter and Spring,
Read this letter carefully.
It's very urgent.

Winter, we've suffered
From freezing our booties off,
Horrible snowstorms;

Shoveling outside,
Thirty mile-per-hour winds,
Falling on our butts;

Icy streets and slush,
Sidewalks covered with rock salt,
(Did I mention snow?)

And the worst part...

Premium Member The Bucket Sits Idle
The bucket sits idle
catching the dripping of dreams
discoloring as they evaporate.
Their tenuous connection to time
now but an echo in the bucket.

The bucket has never held
any maudlin mystery
as age has just ticked me off.
I still use...

Should I  search for you through lotuses of gold 
or climb pyramids of truth and go beyond the self? 

If I were Ghost of Amdapor,  
could I possibly un-clock the secret 
of a...

Friendship

No matter how misconstrued,
one may be taken,
a gentle heart,
will never change,
and always shine through,

A friend,
that don't understand,
take their voices, pro or con,
with a pebble of rock salt,
They be what they have to be!

A friend nothing...

Make
What can I make of the black dirt, upon men's faces,
and of their words, rock salt, becoming rust.
What can I make of their derailment, their unjust
outspokenness, as even lust
determining their origin - adjust!

Using three Bloodhouds and his wits
He carried a shotgun loaded for cons
With rock salt to maim but not kill

Shadows are but sign posts, 
fleeting moment capsules, 
brown leaf portent creeper‘s auto-pilot,
tarpaulin-sky mist draped on ancient chapel spire,
worship at the coat tail of a wrinkled orange rind lantern,
oak wood clouds smoulder from their taproot...
