A Season of Smiles - Updated x2

The sky was pink, should purple rain besmirch us
Yet, don a cheer for New Year.

In February, the appearance of bouquets,...

Twelve Mile

...twelve miles of useless... road 
if you want to call it that
so washed out, rutted, and rocky that
usually you drive around it
three beers to go such a tiny distance
hay meadows across the creek...

Before the Pebbles Shine Again

...Since the wild sweep of the waves
Of Tsunami
It will be a long long time 
Before the pebbles shine again
Let the moss gathered, they said
Let the sun's heat gathered, they said
Let the wind's e...

My Name Is Rain

...My name is rain
But I have many faces.

I am the howling gale
That rattles your shutters
And sends the porch chairs
Skittering across the floor.
I whistle and scream
And drive cascades of wat...

Mother Natures Curses

...A lovely summers day with my family on a Sunday,

In Central Park

...In Central Park the crowds were out,
New York in all its glory,
With bikers, walkers, picnickers – 
The same old weekend story.

The horses clip-clopped on the road,

An Ode To Spring

...Walk along the river bank, lined with poplar trees,
                         Listen to the birds that sing their sweet melodies,
                         Mothers pushing strollers pause, to the hum...

...Tall
                                                           I stand
                                                       like a mountain

In and Out of Seasons

...The contrast of the
bluest sky to be 
and the crispest green

Robins red; Grey
squirrely fellows.
Outside you'll...

it gets dark as the sun disappears and the air gets cooler,
the air gets cooler as saturated sea breeze blows through,
Through the for...
