In numerous locales countrywide, they hold sway
Pirouetting at intervals like ballerinas from Bolshoi
Beauteous, feline and very feminine
Slender to the point of emaciation, not quite
Cultivating the undernourished look on a frugal diet
Decidedly austere for a longer...

annoying rays down upon the slimy suntan-lotion-saturated

the convertibles get taken back in the garages &
the vast groups of lame ass motorcyclists who drive only...

Tough skinned -strong, take it and dish it out.  
Thin skinned - overly sensitive.  
Skin of our teeth -
struggle for life, survival. 
Skin defines and designs us, 
the skin we’re in, through pain,...

The cats had a rather slow day
So they went to the yard to play
All over the ground
Were nuts to be found
Before long, they had too much to weigh!

The porch, not the best place to keep

..~~Childhood Memory~~..
None of us could swim, from the river we were banned
Not allowed near the water without an adult holding a hand
When the adults were busy we went to play
Of course to the river our...

Modest swimsuits, bathing boxes
 White-blue flesh ice cold
Scratchy towels, sandy sandwiches
 Pots of tea being sold
Foxford blankets, picnic baskets – 
A donkey ride on the strand
Flowery summer frocks, mischief brimming 
 A practical joke being...

Summertime, a wonderful time full of nostalgic teenage memories
I spent many weekends with my best friend Tina at Bear Pond Park
Memories of packing our swimsuits, towels, music and bagged lunches 
And We always brought our...

Sitting cross legged beside a bonfire 
Flipping though old photos
Going back in time to the already expired
Reliving wonderful memories

There’s baby me butt naked covered in bubbles
Sister and Brother joining me too
Now I remember the greatness...

When's the last time you lived a single kiss
Moments passed by and you were in bliss
Days were longer and nights were short
Skies--vivid blue with birds of all sort


When's the last time you wandered past the...

Sunscreen could not save our skin,
as dressed in skimpy swimsuits, 
we splished and splashed that afternoon,
so happily slapping the water of the sun-kissed glistening sea,
splattering each other with its salty taste.

Afterward, we swam out into...

You do it for me, baby...

Cucumber Falls,
two sultry bodies gliding
beneath an emerald
waterfall...
chipped nail polish...deep
red...
nipple hard breasts...

Sailing at South Beach,
tossing our swimsuits into
the sea...
ultimate freedom...
my captain...

You know my...

not to see them but did use the corner of...

Up with the children at seven
For blueberry pancakes and ham.
Flapjacks enough for eleven -
How many will fit in the pan?

Lay out some slices of bread.
Spread with egg salad maybe,
Some tuna and celery for Fred,
And a...

That blurry mirage of sizzling heat
As the trucks passed by, steam rose from concrete

Irvington couldn’t build a swimming pool
But came up with a way to keep kids cool

How I begged my mother to make the...

The Boardwalk

Whistles, jeers
Unrelenting young men
Ladies in swimsuits sigh while passing by

Screams from the Wild Mouse
Creaking ominously against summer skies
What happens if it fails to make that turn?

Spinning wheels, colorful trophies
“Step right up and try your...

Sun, sand, surfing the waves,
  Sexy swimsuits: we've got it made in the shade.
Umbrellas in martinis and lined in a row
  On beaches and resorts wherever you go.
Maui, Mexico, or even the Maldives;

universal love
love and hate
hate your guts
guts but no brains
brains blown out

One on his finger, one in his nose;
Crackers and honey, marsh mellow toes;
Voluptuous women, desire that grows;
And what is the problem, he’ll never know

You walk along the sandy beach 
And you taste the salted air 
You step on very tiny shells 
As the wind blows through your hair
 
The ocean splashes on your feet 
As your baking in...

Behind our house – so many memories
created by myself and siblings dear!
Way back behind it there were many trees -
a woods where we amused ourselves all year.
But our first summer was my best recall:

A very mighty king resides on high.
His face beams down upon us from the sky.

We praise him when he’s shining happily,
Reflecting in the azure of the sea.

King Sun, however, toys with us some days.
He hides...
