SAN FRANCISCO RAIN

[V1-Night 1]
Seventh floor windows, ocean burning gold,
The Gulf of the Farallones, secrets to unfold.
Two doors beside each other, laughter in surprise,
But I felt eternity staring through your eyes.

Out on the balcony, the stars began to spin,
I leaned in like remembering where we had once been.
But you pulled back startled, as if caught in the wind,
Afraid

California Exodus

                      ~California Exodus~



No, I do not seek your agreement!
After living in California, I find a predicament.
It feels like I have a brain filled with acrid cement!

If you want to live sanely and quite well,

i have never seen madrid in the springtime
i have never seen madrid at all

does the sun rise differently in madrid
than in san francisco
on those rare city days when there is no fog
nor wind to chase the clouds away

i have seen morning in san francisco
where lovers stroll hand in hand
down meandering paths

San Francisco’s Soulmates

San Remo

2025.3.2
Forty six weeks ago,
BB and I came to SR, Victoria.
I remembered, it was just like today,
The weather was miserable.
The dark clouds, the cold winds, and the low tides,
The drizzle rain touched down
The surface of the sea water,
Formed lot of dimple wells before
Dispersing one after another.
The black swans pedalled in a group of five.
Slowly and steady

San Reality

In yonder sights
tiptoe dainty desires
upon the svelte shimmers
of a sultry sunrise sway.
 
In yonder reach
a rousing rapture rages
against repressions,
the verve of an ardor
tapping against time -
and time -
again.
 
In yonder, lay
the blend of skins
tangled in delirium
soothed over sighs.
 
The yonder, sought,
seeps through glances
with thoughts to seduce -
a trail that simmers.

San Francisco Serenade

S~ Scent of the shining, Pacific Ocean, eternally bless me!
A~ Arresting fog, may your droplets forever surround me.
N~ Nights of rainbowed streetlights, dance, engulfed by the sea!

F~ Friendships, ah,so transformative, we gave each other the space to be!
R~ Resurrecting the grand glow of our hopes and  oh so shining individuality.
A~ As full, white clouds,

San Diego Calling

For a fun vacation, I suggest San Diego might be for you
A city with lots of sunshine and warm temperatures and plenty to do
Its proximity to the border gives you lots of Mexican food choices to try
Endless beaches with boardwalks for strolling nearby
The zoo provides you with a spectacular array of animals far and wide

San Fransisco

They do not wear flowers in their hair
They’re not allowed to smoke out in the streets 
San-Fransisco, I am not prepared
Some gentle people aren’t the ones you meet
To be a one more begging refugee
To watch your ships with nothing left to lose
Is not the fate I’d ever wish for me
San-Fransisco, you’re a word that’s out

San Diegos Spicy Attraction

The townsfolk were jealous and calked her “ El Fuego.”
As she was the notorious flirt of sprawling, San Diego

Her shapely legs, put mens’ hearts in a total trance.
The scent of  perfume, ah~with her, they wanted to dance.

Her eyes, like sensous lighthoueses ,forever were calling.
Like a wise
Them~ into her rapturous arms, they dreamt of falling.

San Francisco's Union Square

The following scenario occurred via the guest sharing with me 
when I was managing the front desk at a hotel in San Francisco, 
fronting Union Square. I found his morals promising and conform 
to a highly acceptable standard of right and wrong. The ambiance 
at the time was understandably festive, and he occasioned me the

Marathon Running Days

10/20/2023

Those tanned, shapely legs of mine,
where have you gone?
No longer have I the ability to run!

Nor feel the glorious, salt water spray,
from my beloved, San Francisco Bay!
That kissed my sweating, dawn face.

Those foggy morns, the busy hands of
time have erased.
Some other body now, in its place?
This ghost of a runner,soulfully does state.

Who took away my

12 Days of Christmas Memories San Francisco California 1960's

          
             On the 1st Day of Christmas my sister read to me
                     

San Francisco

You'll find a heart there
Somewhere

On a cable car seat 
Or placed on a stair

In my careless despair
You'd think I don't care

Or my forgetfulness
But au contraire 

My love was safe
In pocket deep

No chance to slip 
Or deftly creep

But golden glow 
Of sunshine light

Enticed a peek
Horizon bright

Inviting heart
To take a flight

No plan 
Rough sketched

Heart's wings 
Outstretched

I suppose
