Your petals pitch quite exciting,
It blossom from nectars of peaches
hallowed by sweet ovary
down to the pendicle
where the light from the Sun
incur it turbelent gaze!
Mother say any wedding without you
is like a music undressing the ears,
kolanut addressing the mouth,
whisky lust in front of malt,
chocolates dipped in the mucus of okra,
& bodies on preying mantis....

Mayflower Voyage
-On September the sixteen, sixteen-hundred and twenty
The Mayflower set sail for the land of milk and honey
To the land called Virginia, on a map they were shown
The Pilgrims will leave England and travel to the unknown
The Pilgrims seek to work and raise their families freely
To live by Gods law

Mayflower Impact
I heard our ancestors came on the mayflower boat
sad part there was not a journal or a note
it sounds like a miracle my early grandparents Thomas and Susan Collier landed on Plymouth rock
a vision of their voyage made me feel spooky, haunted and in shock
its futile to prove our first ancestors came here
maybe the government

She Came Over In 1620 On the Mayflower
She came over on the Mayflower in 1620.
Learned Native American garden ways which were plenty.
Promptly put new animals out to graze,
Learned how to plant good-looking maize,
Luckily her soul was open, and her mind was twenty-twenty.

Mayflower 2017
The hearts of white men are silently fuming
The spirits of angry widows steadily grow bitter
The bosoms of weeping mothers open wide
While the relics of the past kept washing upon our shores.
Since I stepped off the Mayflower anticipated liberty
has painted a lifetime portraits of blood stained victories
shameful victories that has

Happy Birthday Mayflower
Happy birthday mayflower,
Happy birthday my merrigold.
Where we walk you provide the sight,
Brighten our ways where darkness beclouds.
Thin and thick you are the beacon,
You are the spark, you are the piston;
You are the fire in the combustion chamber.
Often when I come to you like a fountain
In your love you restore my smile
As you author soothing words
Win

Two Mayflower Matrons-Poem 7
They are the last ones by the peaceful shore
under the gloomy twilight darkening tones;
one holds a seashell in her cupped hand,
a delight for two Mayflower matrons.
Her fingers brush off all grains of sand;
such a revelation astounds even more.
Perhaps in Plymouth they never saw
a similar one, being far from any beach;
the curiosity they display is

The Mayflower Sails
Under a tall cottonwood tree that grows along the curb...
two burly men stand next to a giant truck, and smoke one last cigarette...
They inhale one final puff, before climbing aboard.
Trails of smoke intermingle with the white puffs of cotton,
