The Burt Reynolds

Time’s never obliged ~
Heedless, impetuous fame
Exacerbates traits…
But factitious facades fade
UV-rays on gelcoats, craze…

Retouch, unfinished ~
Tide oblivious, streams on
Rising and ebbing…
Eyes old smile recognition
Young ones urge explanation…

Names so soon obscure ~
Ocean sinking impetus
Leaves afloat, excerpts…
Darn! That cannonball race zipped!
Speedy generations flash…

Kristin Reynolds Poets Poet 4

A Sense of Diamonds
To hear me would sound like a symphony of octaves –
played all at once with concrete fingers
on diamond in the rough strings.

To see me…O’, to see me you would have to turn,
ever so slightly sideways, to ensure proper exposure –
one would not wish to either scar his or her retinas

with too much

Burt Reynolds, the Bandit

He was so super cool
Who on the screen bent the rules
When the sheriff was in pursuit with no holds barred
The 70’s rocked in part because of Burt Reynolds starred

And the Black Pontiac Firebird running ahead 
With Sally Fields as his sidekick without dread
Jackie Gleason the sheriff chasing the sumbich in his way
To deliver a truck

Reynolds Phrasis Informed By a Whisper - Recited

INFORMED BY A WHISPER
Enveloped in the mysterious
viewed indistinctly as through
a mist,waiting the call.The
inspiration of genius to be 
invoked by success,wild freedom 
and liberty of imagination informed 
by a whisper, unconscious of the 
operation of the mind,left as
a legacy from this tenancy of
life.To separate that which is 
true from only the plausible,
caution and circumspection is
discarded by

Debbie Reynolds

In 1932, on April Fools’ Day,
you entered this world, and are still with us today.
Your original first names were Mary Frances.
Your birthplace was the city of El Paso, Texas.
In Burbank, California, you won a beauty contest.
This started your career many consider among the best.
Warner Brothers and later MGM placed you on the big screen.
In many

Poetry Poem Poets For Kristin Reynolds and Dion Bess

Pain in the prophecy of wings through sultry sky
Orchestrating vision, love, destiny
Emancipating the tongue to tattle tales taloned with grief
Triumphing in truth to tumult another joy
Reel all poets in, glistening on a silver sliver of string
Yearning to for a final travail, immortality on wing.

Please God, tonight, dry her tears
Oyster her heart in your love
Eternal comforter

Woman Sues R.J. Reynolds Over Son's Tobacco-Related Death

it started

as fevered

bee sting

on tongue—

then lips

gone

like beaver-gnawed

tree stumps—

then the chin

till like

some ruined

Greek statue

you lay

still

awaiting

a new chance—

the planting

in warm earth

to grow again
