Dramatic Monologue
A Winters Tale
The bones of winter cracked the ice black, coal black night.
A hoary wind spits frost crystals that dazzle and blur the sight.
Boney fingers of bare deciduous wood, scratch against the eaves
as the stranger's tread crackles...

Nuts in the Soup
I wrote these lines 7 years ago, slightly edited today.
Perhaps they have more meaning now than they did then.
"There are so many nuts in the soup!"
That's what I hear and see and it's...

Nuts In the Soup
"Nuts are in the soup!"
That's what I've heard: not so absurd
Some add a pinch of spice now and then,
from wit and the sharpened nib of a pen.
Nutty little writers who like to fill
the soup...

A Great Wedding
The bride looked so lovely
All dressed up in lace,
The groom by her side
In His rightful place.
Food in abundance,
A mountain at least,
Guests by the hundreds
Flock to the feast.
French bread and garlic
Prawns in clay pots,
Sweetmeats...

All to be unheeded in my

For how can I abandon
That chocolate canyon?
And same goes for yummy

Eh to a trifle could I bear
any grudge?
Ah treacle or caramel...

The Diet
My wife is on a diet, so am I,
her will prevails in setting what we do;
no more to breakfast on a tasty fry
nor lunch of prime Scotch mince or Irish stew.
She loves her cherry cake,...

Second Indian Wedding
Colors of life, fertility, sanctity fly
Aromas include sweetmeats, coconut, fire
