blue egg in the nest unboiled
humpty dumpty mess

A man in Austin did stand,
On his head in the Texan sand.
When asked why this feat,
He replied, oh so neat,
"Better leg than never," so grand!
I am Eternal.
Love never dies.
Waiting for Jesus some stop waiting.
I love you Jesus any day now you will be back.
Knowing you the plan is amazing.
MOM
christmas morn – she’s up
prestodigitating appetite
only one soul before
the largest package under the tree
shredded carelessly

From New York City to L.A.; from Austin to Seattle,

somewhere along the line
denoting rational behavior
there must be a space
a space devoid of reason
is life a matter of lines and spaces?

PAINTING
this painted figure
is walking a country road
it’s the artist’s touch
when a closer look reveals
no figure, just three quick paint strokes
Dave Austin
It wasn't so bad this morning
But I arrived an hour early
If I'd left later—
even a few minutes?
Only the clock will tell
After all
It's only my first time
CLOSE TO HER HEART
when father passed on
one lady was all broken up
in his pocket a necklace
at the home mother wears the missile
close to her heart

Scorched Valentine
Lo, behold those cheeks
Beside thee, dear, roses pale
Red, red, oh so red!
Found you, love, when day was done
Gone to sleep ‘neath mountain sun
Dave Austin
There once was a long lean man from Boston.
Who drove fast around town in an Austin.
Gave car more gas
Police he did pass.
Now he’s hurting with ticket it’s costin’.
FALL (three Haiku)
frosted lawn
black with sparrows
pecking
gust of cold wind
blink of the eye
last leaf flutters down
snowy day
fox and geese
circle shrouded

Form:
A young pug of exceptional breeding
leaps to her owners side as he’s reading
She adores Jane Austin
In her books she gets lost in
And won’t budge ‘till it’s time for her feeding
