Long When hell freezes over Poems

“When Hell Freezes Over”



He said, “One last kiss for my soul?”
as he lay supine life spilling onto his Last Sunset Road.

The sun had set long long ago.
She lent down, whispered in his ear
Cherry Ripe Red...

And a rainbow will bring it out the best, if I may be so bold.
The Aurora Borealis makes them want to jump and sing.

How a world so green, so vibrant, become hell. 
And now a pale white wasteland.

Agony to relief....

I'm better for the pain I've caused
I rise above it all
I unwind and circumvent
I tend to the breech that I have rent
Give me mine, break the mask
Tell me you will take it back

It's cold here.

It was cold long before
Winter arrived
harsh frigid stares
as people passed by
subtle cues
to warn us off

It's cold here.

Winds of change

Two windswept hearts skip a beat 
beneath a broken window
Frozen footprints from ice cold feet 
as if they didn't know

and chill a crying crow
with a look to kill

"When you think 
all is gone,
that’s where real
Love 
will show..."

He said,

"Hell freezes over
While Snowglobes
are turned upside...

We've been there, so we understand 
      when love-slain pairs
pledge endless, fearless love to which

When our grindstone comes into blossom,
A hen's curse might kill an eagle.
Maybe when hell freezes over,
The snake that I see will bite.

I am mortal but among the Angels
Left but never forgotten
Beneath the cudgel of pain

nowhere in the neon lights
does it say hold on for dear life
we grab the bridle and dig our heels in
bouncing up and down as it kicks and spins

we sit in the diner--it's near midnight

She wore a teeny red bikini in Walmart to shop,
At 300 lbs, she made the shoppers jaws drop.
She bounced and flopped going down the aisle,
Enjoying all the attention in grand old style.
