An Avocado tree you’d grown from ‘pit’ of eaten fruit.
Tree’s color for your living space! But pots do limit...

A Western Trail
He was eastern born in a small town.
And loved being out in the wild.
He fished, hunted, could track a deer down.
At the end of a good hunt, he just smiled.
But there was something not quite...

Loosin' Stella, a Cowboy's Lament
Dreamin' with my eyes on these Montana skies
Blue as the plaid in my plum good shirt
I got the mitten by a beauty queen smitten
By a flannel mouthed tenderfoot from the Wyoming dirt
I’m just a waddie...

how the Kid's life would have turned out,

The one true individual in his life
whom he loved devotedly like no other

Motion of a Fall
Leaves no longer held-aloft by their deciduous vaults
Clutter gutters and breezily sweep streets and rest
On right and left road sides, bright and red.
Tunnels formed by old trees meeting arc
Across city-streets and campus-sidewalks.
The bright...

Fantasies of a Lovers Corral Fairytale
Fantasies of a Lovers Corral invaded my mind
Pronounced reality I could no longer find

Forbidden thoughts excited even the...

To An Unknown Lover
Fondly I list of unrecantable dreams,
Casualty to my nature, subdued as a tenderfoot.
As though only few suns had passed by me.
Unrevealed, I gaze apon my beloveds image,
Craving those neptune eyes to consign my soul to...

Heartbroken
As I remember my quondam days,
I contemplate, I ruminate,
The musings of the bygone time,
Cleaves my heart apart,
With a sharp twinge.
I was tenderfoot, budding,
blossoming.
A bit naive, obtuse,
Savored euphoria in everything.
Being born under a lucky star,
In the...

Silence Is Never An Option
The wild, wild, west he shot his last gun,
the big bad felon that thought he had won.

He's left a trail of nowhere to go.

Sunny days

I chanced it and went for a walk to the woods
the track was now widened for cars.
The pace ended abruptly by an iron fence.

Canary in a Coal Mine
She wandered like a gypsy to Wyoming,
Where she settled in and sojourned for a spell.
She found herself a billet at the Hog Ranch,
And son, there weren’t no high-tone clientele.
It was just a soiled dove’s privy...

The Outs Have It
He is outstandingly out-of-bounds
asserted the outlandishly outspoken outlaw
He can outshoot, outtrump and outride you.
He is outrageously outranked, the tenderfoot replied.
But he did feel outsparkled and outvalued.
And a little bit on the outs...
The outsized outsister...
