After the feast of worms is done; come see torn apart
The life and prospects skipping rope in children's heart
The dust drizzles atop the sutured sound
And eyes litany...

when nightmare first they dreamed.
For many years this nightmare 
would often try 
her courage to subdue, 
but now her sleep is silent.

During the day she'd often play
with her dog,...

Buttered Fields
 
It was early when she was tickled awake
as light eased under the eaves
to trickle through a sigh of curtains,
to whisper across the bedroom floor,
to nudgingly nestle beside her…..and beam!
 
Outside the sun had...

You and me,

Yes, we got pockets full of

Away with strife and toil...... pain and sorrow dim
  as into a mysterious shroud of darkness

I passed a house in a darkened space
A number flew before my face
I saw an elephant on a car
A man with an "L" shaped scar

I found a baby lying upside down
Bugs and spiders eating together...

Ella was an old woman
Who wanted to learn to skip
She held tightly to the rope
So she would not lose her grip

Tossing the rope over her head
That's when everything went awry
Her face went extremely red
As the...

They had such wonderful games to play
Which their siblings used to know
But not played much in my day.

Besides the normal skip

“My dreams are questioned
My very existence thought about
I also couldn’t stand in past
Crawling in present
Cant even think of future”

Every bird has learned
Its direction of flight
Still you think that you cant
Build...

You thought you loved so deep with out a doubt
Remember getting your first kiss, from...

Clock Watching 

Stare blankly at a Clock
And watch time stop 

On clockwise finger's
As seconds linger
Into Day's and Month's 

And when you wake
From the tick and tock
Of the body's clock

Your face will appear older
The Winters colder
And...

Sunbeams delight me with their touch,
a talent that Spring breezes share.
At first, it does not feel like much,
though, an answer to my prayer.
And still, Spring is beyond compare,
luring honking geese to take wing
and fly home...

I told you not to stop dreaming
Told you never to stop hoping 
But I guess you couldn't hold back from screaming
Guess you couldn't master the art of coping

But darling, it's not too late
Don't stop believing...

Childhood delight midst leaping spree
with skipping rope setting feet free
energized to count “One-two-three”
exposing exuberant glee.

Such was I with my peers so dear
decades ago showing glad cheer
kids defying downfall fear
soaring high along active gear.

Now, exercising through...

Manitou slides 
Doppelgänger silhouette
Ballet prides 
Twisted contorted pirouette
Pierrot dolls glare twingingly 
Stare wistfully from shaded mottled space
Ventriloquist disgusting tricks
From two deceitful

The magicians hook 
Stare garishly
Whilst he wilfully reels in
Audience of ooh faced crowds
Doused in...
