My Dogs Have Fun Outside
...Beau my young dog gazes toward the west
He stands, barks, and runs up the driveway
He comes back from the east
Meaning he has circled the house
He stares at me
plunks down and puts his head on...

June
...A portrait in a parlor
A fancy dame or two
A dog named Ruffles singing
In front of you-know-who
A rinny-tin piano
Plunks out a tinny tune
And this ole western cowboy
Is heading home for June...

Feeling Grandma In October

Sheila plunks herself down in a pile of reds and browns.

On the ...

He drops me immediately, heads toward the dazz...

...Plunk plick plat splat
The drip of faucet compels me to
Throw down a few notes
Words I had not thought of six seconds before
Cardinals and sparrows
Twittering and chittering
I listen hard, ...

Day Plunks Them Into Puddles
...They get off the bus
fresh from their houses
Crisp pink cheeks
Glossy hair
Shoes pristine
Bows in their hair
Smiles for their friends
Smell fresh
Look clean
The day plunks them into puddle...

Carnival of Cannibals and Crabs

pinching the mind with pink toys and shiny swag
stuffing your mind with sweet soft fuzzy things
wraps you in heavy chains and a cold nose ring,

Incessant Talkers Bother Me
...incessant talkers bother me.
I leave the room upon their arrival,
not caring if I hurt their feelings, for I know they
do not notice, it always being about them, they
do not see others.
I do n...

You Did Not Invite Me To Your Birthday Party
...Angry Face is so Angry with Pink Face, I gesture for her to sit in the chair the farthest from my chair.
She glares at me hard, stomps over and plunks her butt down in my cushy office chair.

during Spring's green boom
See a robin fly by
or geese in the sky
Do not feel impressed
by Spring's new green dress
Thoughts all aflutter
tongues twist and mutte...

Cause For Clarity

written
words settle
like lightning zaps
to marrow and bone,
communication blooms.
If metaphor plunks down with

The summer lawn is soaked under a drippy layer
The rainfall plunks down the petals of flowers
Along the fences, some green bushes sustain
