Lovelove has no conditions
no contract
no absolutes
no rules or regulations
love is automatic
she cannot be thwarted or obliterated
you cannot talk her out of herself
love demands freedom
she loves who she loves
she owes no one an explanation
or an apology
love is a soul feeling
she cannot help herself

2025, there are several flags placed on my property.
Certainly, in America...

JealousyJealousy plunked down in one giant splat
Angry with blue, green, red and yellow
Especially yellow who thought she was all that
Jealousy was enraged to her toes
Her hatred easily seen
Yellow had no idea

Erase me from your history books
But I refuse to go away, I refuse to die

mother cereal boxI have to constantly outguess, outrun and outfox
Because I am their mother said my crunchy cereal box
This mystified me; I was blank, wordless at best
I read her advertisements again, thinking this was a test....

selfishness Looked out for HerselfSelfishness looked out for herself
She was thrilled to do what she wanted
When she wanted
In the way she wanted
Without censorship, suggestions or having to please anyone else
Selfishness did not buy into funerals, graduations or weddings
She spent no time with her family.
She did not care to make a friend.
She never felt lonely or sad.
She loved her alone...

Awaken SpringSpring did not want to appear
as winter kept her nice and warm
covered by his coat of white
it was to comfortable to wake up
it meant work for her
she had gotten to comfortable
the trees began to bud slowly
upset with spring unwillingness
the flower bulbs peeked out
wondering what was keeping spring
the sun shone brightly to wake her
so slowly...

my animated nose burgerHave you ever met an animated nose burger?
Wait. She might spell herself as bugger.
Anyway, I have one.
She wears a diamond tiara and puts on airs.
She makes me call her “your majesty”.
I had to buy her a furry robe.
It makes me sneeze, but she cares not.
She refuses to let me dig her out.
I am terrified of...

POMPEIII look at my work. I look down on the valley.
I'm proud of its richness, of its green fertile fields,
And each time I do, I can count up the tally.
My sacrificial top's loss produces great yield.
There's beauty in the valley, in its farms and trees.
Morning fog gives it a mythical seduction.
Yet though I remember how...

Summer and SpringSublime summer is arriving,
The darling daisies are gossiping
Laying on the sill of the silly window,
The sun is complimenting them excessively,
The blush is lustrous and lurking.
Summer is shimmering on its way,
Spring is packing her suitcase,
Ready to leave,
She doesn't get along with her sister,
Summer's soar sight
Can make Spring blind.
Spring loves her eyes
So she's absolutely...

Hey there dope fiends,
It’s me, your addiction. The thing you can’t
live without. Your job has tied you to me.
The out of town family would think
something was all wrong if you didn’t stroke
me on a daily. My superficial voice lets them
know in no uncertain terms that you’re alive.
But they really don’t go past...

Summer In Wild AbandonPOTD
Tipping the light with curves arched
and flowing with rain,
she mounts her tinseled limbs
on summertime's crest--
The trees, seeds, and flame
in her eyes lightly open
the fingertips of near August.
Quick to beat on belly drums,
her shadow trance melts
the liquid stars in one tender rush...

Tornado is an Enraged Volatile Angry WomanTornado is an enraged volatile angry woman
Joplin never saw her coming; until she was upon them
Her path was a mile wide and twenty miles long
Was she seeking revenge? Angry with all humans?
We will never know, but she did unbelievable damage.
Joplin, Missouri lost many lives that day.
Four thousand homes were destroyed.
I cannot fathom the horror of...

blank page needs feedingEvery word is a choice
The notebook page is hungry
She needs verbs
Her blank page excites me
Verbs are my favorites too
I give her a teaspoonful of jumping, dancing, and twirling
She gulps that down with gusto
Gives me a nod
I feed her a tablespoon of whirling, skipping and hopping
Followed by a cup of adjectives
I like her to have a...

the storm was not satisfied yetThe storm sneaked into the valley
She had no forethought of what she might do
But the more she thought about the town
And what they had done to her trees
The angrier she became
These morons had cut down almost every tree around her meadow
There was no windbreak, so she figured they deserved an EF5
She came in quietly, just...
