Down to the wire, before this
calendrical occasion doth expire,
though arbitrary twenty four hour
time set aside for guide
ding hand of the supposed/purported
fairer gender, yet human race, yet hide

I'm not strong 
Cuz I don't belong
I long 
To be on your tongue 
And on your mind, swinging along 
All alone, all along or maybe I'm the one in the wrong 
Oooooh oooooh ooooh
Mmmm mmmmm...

A lone entreaty to forgive my sins
So far what I misdemean and you wept mutely
Yet you never moaned and you never whomped
All the way you consoled by the warmth...

To my dearest dear…
Am going through a very bad phase
Loads of works and above all business targets,
Once you came to my thought

Some modern folks, when they hear his name,
will roll their eyes and look ashamed,
thinking the cowboy is uncivilized,
with his hats, and guns, and round-up rides.
That somehow they are beyond the stuff,

When gazing Beta Persei,
a star with many ghoulish names, 
be wary of a winking eye,
for fluctuating flames
belie its evil aims.

Messed up room and untouched books ariled by dust,
Branded cards specially bought
To bring out yips,
Last year’s Questions
Cut-short by hazards,
Next day’s paper

Gambling with the Joker for few hours,
A...

Amazing antiquated alluring alligators
Bending ballistic beyond belief barbells
Crushing curious crimson crucial crocodiles
Delighting dark dank daring darling dwarfs
Enormously elongated elves effortlessly enthusing eagles
Feeling frisky, ferocious, fervently, fanatically fine.
Green gators goading gregarious grievous gargoyles
Hyped up hungry hippos...

all automatic alligators arrive arrogantly
barely behave beautifully but brazenly
carousing with creepy cruddy crocodiles
desperately denying despicable wiles
effectively expediting expediency
forever forsaking fruit flies who flee
glaring at grazing gritty grouses
hijacking horrific herbivore’s handy houses
igniting ingenious iguanas in I-o-Way
jubilantly...

And a panther, will stalk you,

Months of adjustments 
A new home
Strangers on every street
Morning came it feeling bleak
Walking to the door tiny yips barks galore
The door swinging inward 
a small black blur storming in 
With fear in their eye the...

High above the blistering sun
When the weekly walk turned not so fun.

It started well, watching perfect flight
Of dimpled orb as it flew from sight.

It fell to earth on manicured green.
A more perfect shot had not...

Scrambling through the bramble bushes of life
I wonder what is my mission?
Who has the answer? Is it in the cosmos? I look up and smile.
The stars wink at me, holding their own secrets.

My soul is...

She was calm, collected, majestic and silent as the pups approached her.
Secretly howling her truth but only mystically, in the ethereals,
where other packs could not hear or sense her presence

Faerie-land majesties had cautioned her to...

just hanging about in the foyer
waiting for the right movie to start.

angels appear at various exit doors,

Sweet smile and her kind eyes
brings out all her yips once at sight,
A charm lady and her honeyed voice
brings forth all her pureness her girlhood fistfight.

Longed emotions and assuasive cosmea

Remnants owlish wisdom wafts through nighttime’s purple sky.
Fox settles down with her kits, against a nurturing oak stump.
Meadow and forest perform their nightly slumbering rituals.
Vigilant deer mama is resting in a bed of fescue next...
