Legos, on the floor
Each one interlocks with a variety of colors
Gamesome banter entertaining
Originative use

Thick as deep summer night, lush and moon dripped
Wine sipped with dark delight
Banter rouses whimsey’s kite
Amorous thoughts taking flight
Boundless energy of furry fun
Playful banter over the sound of waves
Beachside folly of august sunshine

did we notice
glazed eyes
during the lull
of idle banter
and then embrace
seemingly innocuously
the estranged one
vibrationally
with intent to heal
Lighthearted pleasantries make me smile
playful banter and optimistic outlook
~ bright future in the cards

Sadness in her eyes,
betrays the camouflage donned,
of mundane idle banter.
There’s a sacredness,
respected at such moments,
holding hands, entwining hearts.
belligerent beef-willed Barney backpedaled
barefaced backchat banter bubbling bawdy battlecry
beached beacon bearing bearish
beclouded befuddled bemouth beliefs.
Deaf.
Hands fly.
Symbols whirl.
Nuance slips past fast.
Hand jive, succinct lines blur.
Blink, blind, behind banter, blither on deft fingers.

Restless Banter
Ticka ticka...ticka
Throughout my forest
Coming and going
Like to trains in the
darkness
Still I have a
Destination
With their headlights
Sharing the night together

Those who were laughing thought it a tease.
The butt of the joke though felt ill at ease.
It was banter to them,
but he felt condemned
and bullied, though contrary their pleas.
Lip-smacking whipped cream caffeine kick,
molten sips a swirl tide nectar,
nest of colleagues weave light relief,
office banter pulse rate wrecks graph,
pep restored for desktop drudgers
Affable people
are likeable fools
Divorced from the moment
their banter unspools
Affable people
in search of a creed
Amusing examples
— of folly indeed
(Dreamsleep: March, 2025)
There once was a man who liked Saint Patrick.
He said, "find the lovely matric!".
It was rather a banter.
But not every intruder.
He couldn't say no to the hat trick.

Luck 'tis said lies bobbling in Guinness head
The more you savor, the more luck you spread
With songs, banter, tales and jokes
Better done by Irish folks
Born to lilt a story, laughter inbred.
Not a light's kiss
Slow dispersal of bliss
We came a long way
Expectations turned sore
It breaks my heart today
That my dear friend is no more
Childhood's banter memories
All faded gloomily by death's kiss.
quickly getting to the centre
fulcrum at which bliss throbs canter
smiling at erst stuporous gaffe
carefree to let out a loud laugh
life lived thus in carefree banter

written or spoken
ideas exchanged
social media
a lively banter
communication
a face time call
pick up the phone
hello on street
crazy Zoom call
the laughing
the crying
the loving
texting
talking
speech
He was obnoxious almost to the point of repulsive
Constant banter escaped his always yapping jowls
He gave you no space or peace, monopolizing all conversation
Many stopped attending family reunions due to this brazen boor
Unlike your Mr Asimov
Whom I hear likes Rachmaninoff
My limericks are clean
the point clear to be seen
Perhaps he drinks too much Smirnoff!
Spelling used is how the man spelt his name when writing English.

if nature could speak
would it be eloquent banter...

Your very presence takes my breath away
Your light banter makes my smile sway,
Intricately woven, our paths cross oft
Unbeknown, are we soul mates adrift?
Slowly time will tell its tale
Spinning away removing all veils . . .
Galaxy you shine of dreams
Comet races like my heart
Big Dipper comes a courting
Dressing the night with stars
Bed of clouds soft and warm
Pillow talk deserves an answer
Swelling moon full of charm
In your arms star of the banter
my hazel orbs are silent
he barely glances my way
but I catch his meaning
communication is swift
others continue their banter
not seeing or feeling
what we feel and know
husband wife communication
unfelt or discerned by others
The Banter
A simple glance
A touch of hand
A gentle smile
A laugh
A look
Dinner for two
A simple rose
Candles and wine
The excitement
The butterflies
Need grows
Love soars
Two people
Bigger than both of them
Forever
No sounds at all - no noise, no talking, no music
No laughter or arguing, no banter
Just quiet -
Panic sets in - don't let those thoughts filter in!
Those thoughts that creep surreptitiously through
Creating doubts and fear and terror
