Long Sweet pea Poems

I'm off on the beaten path
with Little Rosey in my grasp

There's palm fronds like a giant clock,
twenty hands instead of two
And there's the honeysuckle bush
that suddenly broke through
the gap in my neighbor's greenhouse

"Bonnie!" she insists
"Bonnie...

Where every young lovers met and

Dreamy midsummer comes to the garden
 Leaving her perfume so intoxicating
Colors float up – bounce like a fountain

O April
how I’ve longed for your return
to breathe new life 
into this gnarled body..
for these roots to be unfettered 
from the grasping earthen frost - 
the past season of fanged nor’easters gnashed 
me bare -...

CHILDREN OF SPRING

Spring spreads out her parasol
 In April, June – always May;
Invites the children of her garden
Come with her to play today.

Yellow Daffodil stands straight up
 Announcing Spring with his horn;

Seed - scattered strewn or downtrodden.
Grain stuck on passive flytrap mucus.
Wild life biomes ripe with  open sesame.
Frantic birth pangs stiffen their gestations as green  leaf ferments bubble underneath.
Mother of all wombs, diva pulse...

As dusk's misty tones awake from silence,
darkness fades, as birds gather to rejoice.
A beautiful reminder of patience,
their sweet melodies give nature her voice.

Darkness fades, as birds gather to rejoice,
basking in the glory of a new...

And the sweet pea seed pods

Art is abstract
Art thrives with colours
Colours brighten faded coral
Colours highlight black
Black skies with silver stars
Black opal gemstones
Gemstones like amethyst
Gemstones of vivid ruby
Ruby roses and crimson thorns
Ruby as precious as emeralds
Emerald stalks of yellow daisies
Emerald and...

The river is gushing with vigor carrying fresh cold water supply
Its dancing bubbly liquid is glittering in the...

Ambitious Amaryllis arrive soon,
Bloodroots  beauty appears to bloom.
Colourful Camellias  grow in shade,
Daffodils  dance in garden parade.

Freesia  flowers friendly and fragrant.
Gleeful is the glamorous Geranium,
Hyacinths  cling in...

Seems appropriate in January, when the snow has yet to stop
That the flower of the month would be a lovely white Snowdrop

Then when February comes, we've still frost on our nose
But not so much that...

who'll kiss my tears away...

Excitement overflowed 
in their loving abode.
Their hearts were in a whirl.
The results showed it’s a girl.
With still months to wait
All they did was anticipate
The coming blessed event.
His wife with her Russian accent
Sang joyously all day...

I'm from Norfolk Virginny
where every bodies stingy
even king pins cut nuts and pinch pennies

where stick up kids are found

when the sun drops the pull out and start patting you down

in my garden towards the East,
the honey bees have built a hive,
where human traffic is the least,
their busy low hum comes alive.

swishing across my garden plot,
in one and twos for the nectar,
then hum their way...

THINGS WITH STRINGS

Spider's web, strings of stars,
a weaver's loom, and old guitars.
Balls of yarn, and DNA,
string bikini, and crochet.

Cats cradle, spools of thread,
Tails on kites, and hairs on head.
Theory in music, or in science,
together making...

Wafting in the air,sweet scent of your soul,
Like a garden of lilac shrub and sweet pea;
Exuding my path, deodorant of your whole,
Like the path of African civet cat or hill
Of scent-born-beetles. You are not afar,
Your...
