Short Bauble Poems

Earth glows in the dark like a bauble
Though sometimes its orbit will wobble
In Glasgow they came
To allocate blame
Knowing Scotch can make eagles gobble!...

That magnificent canvas on the museum wall
  Is it a bubble, a bauble, a bird -- or nothing at all?
Its mystery the artist masterfully disguised 
  So patrons will its enigma forever analyze...

Tinsel smiles that bridge the mile in Holiday style
cookie dishes full of sweet little things worthwhile 
Bauble rubies, jolly Santa, and magic make believes
red shiny sleighs and garland inlays, for Christmas !...

Baby merelf swims up for another hug
His mama is wise, she enjoys their cuddle
Knowing that in the blink of an eye
He will be chasing mermaids,
Promising them a pretty bauble
Or a ride in his conch shell car
She holds on tightly loving these moments
Hoping she remembers his sweet baby smell forever...

Behind the barn my pumpkin is well fed    
an orange titan bauble face beet red 
he's a halloween creep 
grinning without a peep
beware of his bite or you will be dead !

in sincerity
you will find
the word sin

so honestly
what does
that mean

to you and
i other then
i've tried but

love is a
multifaceted
diamond not

meant or fit
for a ring so
what i brought

you was just
a thing a
bauble

a dangly
bling like
fuzzy dice

hung from
my rearview
mirror more

or
less...

Glaze the glass and blow
liquid luster, lava flow
Twirl the oven, hallucinate
Clink the cooling 'till it breaks
Make it cobalt, gold flecked muse
Shallow breath to counter fuse
Hollow bubble on sweating metal
Sting of lungs by the great glass nettle
The end is a bauble to be bought by the buyer
Born from the heat from the un-ending fire....

i would
rather spend
seconds with your

smile
than hours
with your frown

so your
majesty i am
here to please after

the applause
as your court jester
i will juggle my balls and

then shake
my sock covered
bauble but while thinking

what
a fool i am
i should have dressed

while trying
to arrest you as your
slow dancing policeman...

We were not cut as diamonds,
An expensive bauble with traditions and so many rules to follow,
We were emeralds and saphires,
Hues of sadness and envy,
Longings and jealousy.

And when we collided together as the brilliant jewels we both are,
We forged into one ruby,
The color of flames and desire,
We became the shade of passion,
And an eternal love that will last for eternity....

Reflected in a silvered mirror lies a lustrous crystal bauble
         Beguiling bribe veiled to eyes adrift in denial
           Atonement for his guilty heart,  a souvenir
      of that marbleized moment when love rolled away
   Brilliant gullion jewel, beribboned and returned to giver,
Lustrous crystal bauble,  no longer mirrored in glassy tears

To brighten my day. Da da da da....

Vlad, a Merry Christmas to you from me
Complete with baubles a spruce Christmas tree
But what he don't know
That tree's gonna blow 
Cos' each bauble is packed with  TNT... 


Putin woke up Christmas morning with glee
Glanced at his gift I sent, the Christmas tree 
He turned it on excited 
The TNT ignited 
And the whole world danced around merrily...

There was a red bauble named Al
He feasted on mead and Halal
He got hooked on a tree
Got nice comments for free		
Which boosted his pride and morale.

Somebody the door opened wide
The wind gushed inside like the tide
Gosh! Poor Al hit the ground
And saw stars all around
He lost his decorum and pride.

I reached to touch a star,
Arms too short, I could not.
So, I dove inside me;
Transcending my body,
I reached out once again;
Holding shiny bauble.

“You are a beauty”;
Says I with a thrill.
“On, I am honored”;
Came its’ swift reply.
Who knew stars could speak?

Out of body
All souls can speak;
Their soul language,
Its so precious.

We converse,
We can touch
We are one.

One tribe;
One soul.

One!

I reached to touch a star; 
arms too short, I could not.
I went into myself;
 transcending my body.
  I reached out once again;
 Held a shiny bauble.

“You are a beauty”,
said I with a thrill.
“Oh, I am honored”,
came its’ swift reply.
Who knew stars could speak?

Out-of-body
Yes, souls can speak;
It’s soul language,
And so precious.

We converse,
we can touch,
we are one.

One tribe;
one soul.

One.

vixen ...
it defies sense
that such fetid phrase
and coarse, careless curses
can drift so dourly from plump little bows
perfect, pouty, chili pepper lips
dripping with dangled prepositions
and dangerous propositions
so, love ... what wish?
what shiny champagne-notioned bauble
will twist that naughty purse
into a sweet, sassy ...
yes?
