Tanka For a Child

Sometimes all it takes 

is a snapshot of a child

dripping in blue rain

with ripples of innocence

accompanied by madness.

Tinkering With Tennyson

Alfred, Lord Tennyson,
When all was certainly said and done,
Wrote “Better to have loved and lost…,”
Perhaps that was the bar he crossed.

These Words In Lines

Happy birthday, Brother Alfred, 
As these words in lines have told; 
The sentence has already said 
That your name this moment is called.

Clerihew Finch

Brussels Alfred William Finch a realist
to a neo-pointillist
but staying an artist was not his lot
the wheel turning to a pot from a dot*

The Birds

I can hear the birds singing sweetly in the trees and in the skies.
Alas, I can not see, because some of them are eating my eyes.

Note: Dedicate to the film The Birds, by Alfred Hitchcock.

Flavor of Springtiime

flavor of springtime
minty as June's wildflower
love's petal dispersed---
alone in the city park
I long for your smooth caress

Abc - Poem About Love

Arms around each other.

Bed of roses he laid her on.

Caressing each other so fine.

Desired from day one.

French kissed n made love.

The Birds

Went to the store for some things I forgot,
driving into the Walmart parking lot,
spied tons of seagulls,
so ran like a bull,
a passerby looking like Alfred Hitchcock.

Alfred Hitchcock

Alfred Hitchcock,
known for his awe and shock.
May have tried to impress Betty Hutton,
by surgically removing his belly button.

His belly button was surgically removed !!

Alfred Hitchcock

English "Master of Suspense" director Alfred Hitchcock
would appear in his own movies, a character with bulk!
In "Psycho," one of his best movies from long ago,
Hitchcock's cameo appearance was at the start of that show.

Oh Poe

A disastrous sunflower,
Poe is hour after hour
now studied the way a murder is
by Alfred Hitchcock or Sherlock Holmes
long-lived even in death, 
he suffers in hell 
through our eyes on the page
and our ears thereafter.
