Long Tree frog Poems

My twilight Dream Catcher.

Sweet melodies tug at my heart strings.
The waves roll in as the blue whale sings.
As empty moonbeams fade,
In the cosmos evenly laid.
Layers of complexity.
Clouds meandering are a formality.
A tonic of love, a...

Dragon saw a Spiderman costume at the local department store.
We were there for Dragon Food- You know- little charcoal briquettes.
How else could he keep his fire a lit, on a cold and snowy night?
Naw, just...

Loving life hid beneath rim of cool ceramic bowl
Tree frog claimed proud place, toilet's homely hole
Enamoured by his simple palace making stance
I bend to peer at his green grip toe stick, entranced

My ordinary admonished by...

spring blesses with scent a mind 
encased in February’s mummy-swathe.
I drop my rags of winter 
stretch out on the warmed porch
thought steps lightly on to a carpet, 
woven of mist and aromatic perfumes,
which glides silently...

Early one morning my Hubby was sleepily shuffling around and about.
Dawn was almost breaking and we were becoming late no doubt.
Toiletries were a waiting, as he shuffled near the morning throne.
Opening the lid, you’ll never...

Since it’s such a nice and beautiful day 
why not become a piece of cloud myself
or a stream of water, and go.

If it happens to be a cloud,
looking down a side of a mountain floating...

I was cleaning my garden bed one day
when a lovely bright green cricket had 
a word or two to me, to say.

At first my eyes was full of wonder
how could this cricket be talking to...

Dawn's rays burst through gray clouds
Though evening's bitterness lingers
She struggles to shake free of tear-stained, satin shrouds

Each morning, so much effort just to rise
But lips part to flash a much-needed smile
When she opens the door...

Blue Monarch Faerie had been vacationing in the Bahamas
So relaxed and pliable now, quite unlike her double mama’s. 
Just wait ‘til you get back, one said over her scratchy I-phone.
They are hovering near your mushroom,...

Purple twilight darkens the day.
A green tree frog jumps embracing
an ashen bark. His eyes open
to silence, as it stares within
inches of a small flickering,
iridescent lightning bug:
as it brightens up the night.

I am mesmerized and amazed
as...

a place of my youth
the old bridge stands there still
time flowing like a river



The old man stops to rest. Peering into murky water he sees his 
young face, long lost in the past.  He...

Yellow crops of sandstone,
Jagged mountain peak,
Red display of waratahs,
A meandering bush creek.

White display of flannel flowers,
Bottlebrush with orange cones,
Beautiful fronds of tree ferns,
Blue gums with crafted tones.

A frolicking roll of mountain mist,
An ancient windswept cave,
Green...

Magic of a Summer morning

Warm, velvety air gently caresses you, 
Sweet dew cools and soothes. 
The sky is awakening with rays of a golden sun,
While happy birds are chirping their delight for the new day.

Look Memaw!

I went outside when my grandson called me.
Down the wheelchair ramp I walked while looking.
I glanced all around, left and right, searching.
Then, I heard it, his wee small voice saying,
“Look, Memaw, I am up...

Recalling a Time
Written: by Miracle Man

I’ve had days, when as a tree frog, I had no tree,
sometimes like a salmon I’ve had to swim upstream.
I recall a few days that were like skinning...

Aibohphobia
Fear facing this penning
Then when I started
I found what was this preventing

A car, a man, a maraca
When he played the maraca while driving
My attention became dismayed
And I was only surviving

Down at the creek 
Goldenrod_adorned log

To forget knots my soul
so to find eyes I've gone
and come undone.

"...it dreamed to me..."

"... are you a tree.Frog?"

at his pleasure...

Once, I took some seeds

I once had a gray cat that could clog
and was better than any old dog.
His feet work was fast
but stardom didn’t last
when he fell for this stunning tree frog.

My gray cat and tree frog was...

I have been one acquainted with sunrise,
I have bathed in first light – then back in shadow,
I have felt tentative warm on closed eyes.

I have gazed over pink-tinged meadows,
I have passed by the swift and...

They know everything, viewing unsuspecting beings, as they pass beneath, they whisper their secrets upon the air.  Leaf-songs no human can interpret, ride the winds like a bird, winging its way across azure skies.

Sigh, small pleasures enjoy more than great; why?
In much sadness have recently lain
Many days our lives have gone without rain
Patiently waited with no little sigh

Lain out hose to sprinkle, pray no reply
Increased heat upon the...
