Long Tykes Poems

A Bagpipe am I,
My drones point to the sky!
I am magic they say, since the wizard ‘spelled’ on me that day.

He gave me the gift of immortal time,
I could travel through centuries,
T’was a gift.
It was...

The country, people, and the village,
All equal, as if, for the first time, 
All of that gave a fresher image,
Nay, 'tis but a relative vantage.
Save fresh road, to its left bears a sign.

Many Hikes with Three Mikes

After I had gone on many hikes
Ended up with these three Mikes
Meant to be,
Great all three,
Who I do know everyone likes.

Who I do have a Hoopy Do Review.

It’s good to be a cowboy,
just ask my old friend Dane,
who spends his days riding
across the Texas plains,
working for a big ranch,
he cuts, lassos, and herds,
brings them in at round-up,
brands them all in turn.
Works out...

I s'pose Grandmas think Grandpas are underfoot most of the time,
And consider them moody, grumpy and way past their prime.
But God had a purpose for them in His great scheme of Creation.
He tasked Grandpas specifically...

When I go hiking with my dog,
(let's get that straight, my husband's dog,)
I find that Simon knows no path.
He wants to roam about in yards
which leaves our neighbors in a flap.

This dog has taught me...

Shrike, planes, kites and satellites
In flight

Above pike, mice, parasites
And all other types of life

Atop the highest heights

Down in the deepest depths out of sight


Thinking twice
Just might
Suffice
For doing it right

During a life
Rife
With strife

Rituals and rites
Some of...

The Blackness

From the time of the beginning 
A blackness there has been
And though he sits there grinning
He can’t be touched or seen

A taste he’ll place upon your tongue
Sweet words he’ll whisper in your ear
And even...

The wind blew exactly right
For the flying of a kite.
Kites were nearly everywhere:
In telephone wires
And high in the trees,
One or two were in the air,
Blowing ever higher
On a gentle breeze.

Then all at once the wind...

Through Autumn sails the tempests fury,
mountains and winds stand tall in a leaf-maze;
light paints the scene in haze of marbled
pinks, oranges and blues; hues subdued 
by chaotic winds in their speeding flight.

Winter blows in, it's...

Driving in the city,
I'm used to many things - 
Crazy cabbies, honking horns,
Pigeons spreading wings.

In attentive texters,
Speedy messengers on bikes,
Nannies pushing strollers filled
With bored or wailing tykes.

Buses not in service,
Doormen whistles blowing,
Drivers who have no...

Once within these very walls farmers woke at dawn.
The field was full of vegetable, the cows were in the barn.
Life was full of chicken clucks, and Mother's who could darn,
bales of hay stacked within but,...

A quaint, one room, busy place,
Full of good old southern grace,
Lay to the east of Hawthorn Hill,
Somewhat beyond the daffodills.
Over a field and past the cows,
Beneath the deep magnolia boughs;
Beside smooth, clear Crab Creek,
In the...

I tried to write a poem,
A little while ago,
But I couldn't find the muse,
The words just wouldn't flow.

I started with the standard stuff,
A poem or some prose.
But inspiration left me dry,
The floodgates all were closed.

So...

The grass is green over the hill,
As yellow blooms the daffodil.
It's sunshine hits a little stalk,
A friendly flower, I bet they talk...

Of all little kids, spent too long inside
They burst outdoors to play and hide.
