Long Spooned Poems

"The Vanilla Ice Cream Knights and The Raspberry Queen"



"You’ve been spooning
too much Vanilla Icecream”, 
she advised the buffoon

all the feathery self-blustering chirpers 
parted way, she had loaded guns
she positively glided into the room

A sad, colossal flub,
A tale about a marinade.

Not sure where to begin.
My sensibilities assailed,
Yet I must jump on in.

The task at...

We met a few years ago, then suddenly you were gone
We danced the very last dance to our favourite song

On a Sussex farm works a golden haired girl
Surrounded by guys as she makes their hearts twirl

HUNGARIAN RHAPSODY

Her hand’s swan-like dance,
ivory shadow puppets
romance. Hungarian rhapsody.

The musician sans existence
as emotive fingers move
imaginary marionettes
with splendiferous precision.

Drama drops onto piano keys
occasionally taking a gentle stroll
then in sensuous sway, sashaying
like an exotic dancer. The musician

plucks...

every germ that came my way.
It is because of Mama’s nursing 
that I lived to write about it.
I succumbed to every illness 
in which I came in contact.

Many moons and seasons ago my five children
inquired where I was heading to on my journey

I replied ‘to the moon’ and to how to get there

We walked the beach one moonlit night
Our lunar orb shone down so bright
Darkened shadows consumed the land
This night we walked hand in hand

The summers breeze was fading away

Aboard our babe

Touches Of Sugar

Her Valentine bouquet
Carries his touches
Touches her heart

Nice was the dinner and show
Nice was the ribbons and bows
Bows of cupid's arrow of love
Bows of nuts dipped in chocolate  
Chocolate delights

Mischief to the hater,

But dark, bleak and horrible
