Svelte Sylvia loved acrobatics
She did it in gyms and in attics
She did a pole vault
And a triple somersault
She is known as a fitness fanatic...

The leaves engage in

      Colourful acrobatics,

            To the wind's applause.

Spheroid Rainbows.
Delicate,"Do not Touch"
Floating through emissions,
Of dirt and car exhaust.
A bubble family on an outing.
Performing acrobatics,
In the summer air....

Ann was an aging acrobat
That is until she became too fat
To sit on a flying trapeze
Cavort or leap with any ease
When the tightrope began to bend
Ann's acrobatics came to an end...

Number 12: Bet you just realized that was downright silly
Twelve comes after ten by about two or three
Failed mathematics
Also acrobatics
Once fell on my keister ripping my pretty silk saree...

I do acrobatics by the hour
I am a fast flyer. A real “wower”.
I hold my front legs out ready to seize.
I can fly backwards at a breakneck speed.
Who am I? (Scroll down).
















Dragonfly if you please!...

Have I descended into the doldrums
Or are the doldrums
Either side of this tightrope I walk?
It's not the black dog
This could be shaken off
But I'm so used to being on this tightrope I stand still
Maybe I need to read up
On acrobatics...

My sunflower
the tender breeze in the
streets of the field is your 
memory
and its sustains longer in your
flowering

The insects cream on your nectar
on you, their memory lingering, 
playing acrobatics on
your inner circles drawn like
tracks of an Olympics lane

Again she steps out
Oh,
Fresh banana...!

She screeches,she beckons
Blinking,winking.

Acrobatics.. .
Monkey,if tales befet fate
Who cares?

They hop from tree to tree
They wink or blink to serve
They twist or couch,to catch.
In the twillight,they bluff
In the forest,they swarm....

Night’s wings are silent swift, fleeing as Verse 
dresses in red silk, luring away a mind
meant to finish preparations to nurse
literacy in the youth of mankind. 

Mental acrobatics (and good balance)
fail as midnight slips by, stealing away
psychical worksheets unacknowledged chance
to increase children’s prowess in word play....

The autumn air is crisp and clean

Bringing colourful acrobatics, yearly seen.

The dancing leaves entertain us all,

Changing their colours and like dancers fall

Gracefully, fluttering from the sky.

Forming carpets of colour where they now lie.

The most beautiful season of the year,

It's beautiful now that fall is here....

The vibes we ride
the highs, the lows
conversations with
conclusive innuendos
Hypotheticals and 
experiments
we engage in
acrobatics of
noun and verb duels
Your en garde
I fall hard
Butter knife
tongues
Eucharistic bread
the uncovering
of your body
unravels my
mentality
Intoxicatingly
sipping your
Lord have mercies
Amen and Amen...

Thoughts juggle aspect of your character
Defining your perfections
Spotlights burnishing on curves
I dare to turn my attention
As your love walks a tight rope
While balancing a gorgeous smile on the index 
And the wit of charisma on the ring finger
My heart gasps to see your charm do precarious acrobatics   
Till realization reminds me your beauty skin deep, 
origins of the soul
You are my circus...

The greatest showman came to town 
Completing verbal acrobatics.
Taming verbs  into free verse.
He made us laugh and made us cry
He made us feel alive.
When the greatest showman came to town.
Turning words into sonnets.
Juggling lines into epic ballad’s.
To woo us with his words of wisdom.
Performing prose to epic levels.
Then a flood light falls on the showman
As he announces the star performance.
It’s john lindley reciting, Love and crossbones ....

I
The rain came without rainbows
She walked between the raindrops
The sun, even in Fall, warms all over
No crimson & gold leaves over tops
Of local mountains, but fruit all Year!
Be there clouds, mustard seed faith grows

II
The milder African winters, not for him
He had not traveled abroad - bad & good
White cattle herons, always delighting
With aerial acrobatics, done getting food
Like paper kites dressed in snow, hovering
At twilight over the lake, their lives coloring...
