Long Tousle Poems

no one saw it coming they never do
the phone poles were giving off sparks
dogs began to howl birds flocked to the sky
A Plymouth hubcap of immense proportions
quivered and droned in the air over the capitol

They say you can’t be in two places at the same time. 
Like so many errors, that knowledge is based on fact and not experience. 
I know this is true because I have been in...

This quirk of nature has no definition, formless.
Boundless, yet gravitation it pull us together.  
Ties that bind in chemicals and sensory receptors.
The limbic system, amegdela, primal carnal.
Holding no preconceived notions form whom we shall...

glittering gold crosses 
adorning muscled, tanned bodies 
endlessly liposuctioned into Versace
worshipping the almighty dollar 
as they cruise the golden boulevard 
disciples of Bentley and Rolls

paying lip service to the lord
with collagen smiles 
gracing plastic personas...

I will always remember the moment we met.
(Haunting woodlands in springtime, your slim silhouette)
The glint in your eyes sparked a tempest at dawn
overwhelming the dreams of a slumbering fawn.

I will always remember your singular smile
(Fusing...

Chauffeur drove us to the beach for a stroll
to get some air, fun, sun and sand
I remembered to carry my favorite red parasol
so my fragile skin doesn’t burn orange

Mary, my sister, went to her first...

my parched eyes watch torrents of rain 
lashing the glass windows
of my chic office on the seventeenth floor
can't hear the tinkling of drops 
or rumbling of clouds though
the sound obscured by engineered acoustics

I shut my...

Three long years ago
I first entered these marbled walls
Now with glory and honor pride
Intervened in me we go down in history
On through the day we celebrate
All those electives
We forget  our enemy's our foes rejoicing...

Token of Blessing

Simple brass token sits with anticipation,
Like pennies, abandoned in the streets, wait, 
Gracing my desk with reminisce 
Of an inlet crossed by a narrow bridge -
To an island basking in spring air
Or trembling...

Wait ... please wait
Do not let me fall
Do not let me go yet
I am not ready at all

I watch for the sun
Is leaving so soon
I watch for the rise
Of a harvest moon

I watched from above

All leaders are enough capable
To remove problems analyzable;
They set few goals achievable,
And strive to solve snags tangle.
Ready to meet challenges triple
Without any hurry or hustle.
Calm in disasters are as a temple
Faith and hope run apprehensible
In...

Silently, my breath aligns chi centers
as I reach a dazzling state of harmony ;
when quiet, murmurous  drift brings  me
to corridors of an unknown  vortex
beyond ceiling of  stars  arcane, where

If I could be weather
What kind of weather
Would I be?

I’d like to be the wind
Fresh off the sea…
That’s what I’d like to be

I could lift kid’s kites
To dizzying heights
Make them as proud as could be

I...

Who am I Lord?
you knitted me so intricately
but I do not know this person
who is she?
Give me eyes to see
the beauty within me
each tousle of hair
every curve of my body
You shaped and molded and designed
so...

She's Beautiful

I know a girl
That's pure beauty to see
Won't mention her name
As I feel there's no need
You'd know by her smile
Her sparkling eyes
That shine like sun
Gentle like moon
The way she celebrate
Every aspect of Life
Spending her...

MISDEMEANOR 

A soft lisp runs through blonde summer grasses,
shoving at kites or the hems of long skirts.
Umbrellas and hats stir as it passes, 
jumbling at picnics, it teases and flirts.  
It picks up speed...

Dark gray clouds amassed hidding red sunrise
East gentle breeze bringing a storm at last
Trees dance and sway with delighted surprise
As the wind swishes swirls twirls right on past

He tickles their fancy leaves quite fast
Fickle wind...

I am but an unsolvable puzzle,
A strange enigma of shattered pieces,
Mute, voice restrained by an iron muzzle,
     Dreadful as despair slowly increases.
     Fragile feelings and thoughts,

Tree Seduction
by Sunny

Soft quiet breeze
flows through out 
hair tickles my back
awakening my skin

Closing my eyes
your branches 
surround me
not knowing 
what enhancing 
delights are about 
to engulf my soul

Your leaves slide 
slowly down my skin
sending shivers...

Grabbing hold of the reigns 
Taking...

Rapidly down the mountainside,
The pure powdery snow spraying!
Nearer to vast sapphire skies,
And long ere a perplexed purple.
Bracing winds travel from afar,
And carelessly tousle the hair,
Long after the mists of orange,
In the treasured golden noon,
On the...
