Kiss
hidden
in secret.
Locked forever,
shining leaves caught in sap turned to amber:
a golden love held in rings betrothed.
In unison,
palm to palm,
fingers
touch.

For our 30th went back and got her, must be wary
That's really not nice
But I did have a choice
So we're back together now and still married...

Footings poured
to support the stage

Colors fading out
“Old we’re both” my garden says
Gone is October
Leaves now pallid, then calx
Leprous and frothing each day.

Everyone is brave
inside the café
Tall glasses of courage,
fear toasting itself
The sound of the motors,
the drape of the muleta
A court full of jesters
—reliving the lie

Conflict

"You still talk to her?"
Innocent question, I turn
Back to the screen;
One set of green eyes, after all
Enough for the two of us

...Formidable treat he stress
At the early hour of this day.
No pain, no gain- All is still well.
Centenary dream is a luxury few can reach.
Yours truly, let your fate decide.

My pet seahorse Brenda was blond,
She loved a poor fish in the pond;
He was not aware of this,
And so he took her amiss,
When in his big tummy she spawned.

My Mother Gave Birth To Me

On this day to me my mother gave birth,
Here in America  a truly wonderful earth;
Where we go,
Shall love so;
Will thank God  who is beyond all worth.
