Childhood Courtesy

Held the hand of an elder
Whom ye passed by, and
Bring it towards thy forehead;
An apropos of respect!

Never questioned the face,
Never answered the light
Esteem them as thy highnesses;
A gracious child.

Premium Member Snow Job

snow job
(apropos the work goes on…)

snow—
that whiteness 
that blankets
the path
ebony footprints left
may cover the way
for a moment
but as night
melts into day
injustice is as snow
and we are the plow people:
workers of the sun
melting old deceit
plowing new strategies
for the new snow
coming…

Premium Member Cruising With the Trane

CRUISING WITH TRANE...
   (Apropos John Coltrane)

Sometimes
in a blue note mood
i take the A-Trane
into a soprano night

And listen 
to moonlight thrills
of beautiful sable birds

Monking around
with satin dolls
in search
of a love supreme:

Spiritual cruising with Trane
is still one of my favorite things.

Premium Member Ode To My Eyes

My eyes are deep brown, oval shape and eyelashes long, seem to gape some said like a doe with sparkle and glow smooth eyelids with no lines of crepe Though that was a long time ago when youth kind of did steel the show Today, somewhat bright though lids not as tight they glimmer for age apropos!

Sheathe the Unkind Heart

[ I thought this poem especially apropos now with all the turmoil and fear racking America lately.]




Sheathe the unkind heart and
cage the mind's wild monkey,
and let the dogs of anger bray
only at the lonely cool moon!

For the other, too, has a soul
that seeks sanctuary, as you
do, in this cold vast Universe....
