What Does the Fox Say
Fox cub ventures forth
Blood-orange pelt, white-chested
Sneezes seed pod out
Fraka-kaka-kaka-kaka-kow
Could imagine this is a fox sound.
Ahee-ahee-ha-hee
is quite funny!...

Autumn
fall trees sacrifice
blood orange leaves, nature's carpet
over wood hewn steps

Blood Orange
biting the bullet
savor the aftertaste
of lead killed
by friendly fire
we learn to listen
to our own voice
peeling an orange
from the inside out
every day our lives
try to start again
if we are afraid
to live our dreams
how are these
not nightmares...

The Orange
The orange cool in my hands
blood orange open in the moonlight
breathing in the fresh scent
the juices savory stroke my lips
blood orange open in the moonlight
plump and painted red in my hand
the juices savory stroke my lips
gloved by stippled orange skin
plump and painted red in my hand
breathing in the fresh scent
gloved by stippled orange skin
The orange cool in my hands...

Style of Colors
Vibrant colors everywhere
Plush pastels say you care
Natural tones always Fair
Brightly bitter blackberries show your flare
Shades of Gray challenge you to dare
Willowy Whispers of yellow warn to beware
Beveled baby blues- light spring wear
Marshmallow Cloudpuffs Float On Air
Deepened Purple Thunder makes Stormy Weatherwear
Blood orange sunflowers remain quite debonair...

I Predict-
I predict Milky Way graphite before the rain
I predict Red Rock Desert Plum Perfect buried trailer
I predict Plumb perfect lavender babbling brooks
I predict blood orange straw hat champagne sand castle
I predict peacocks under the sea cabbage patches
As Humanity looks ..
As a man. He's running
I predict Jesus coming

Red River
RED RIVER
I sail the rapturous red river, where the sunrise
swallows the redwood trees, and equator clouds rain
dance ‘round the sun. Effervescent virtue kneels down
swirling a seascape of citrus lemon and blood orange hues.
Dove-white sails wave like linen on a clothes line.
A spectator iota bows her head in praise.

Haifa Oranges
Haifa Oranges
The sky is light blue or pallid
It is late afternoon
Clouds are burgundy and
The sun is a Haifa blood orange
Picked by a Palestinian’s
Gnarled hands.
Once this was his land, but an historical
Tremor came
He has resigned; this is Allah’s will.
But his sons think otherwise,
Blood orange, one day
Blood will overflow run down gutters
As we have another tremor that
Will rumble on, everlasting family feud....

Canzone
Sipping the Morning Sunshine
poised on the edge of fall
mother's leaven variegated peaks
lie on a sea of blood-orange streaks,
tease of yellow, and green loveliness.
facing upwards, as the breeze
seeks a hum from her breast richly pleased
of endowment; she sneaks a peek
upward towards the salmon ocean sky,
transcendent heaven,
and the lord's painted birds fly by.
nigh the slow rivers edge
reflecting its ripple comeliness.

Blood Orange
The blood orange moon hung low
the sky around an eerie orange.
Trees turned bronze in its light
and water the colour of marmalade.
A strange twilight night this Halloween
basted in hues of various orange streaks.
Tis easy this all saints night to believe
and even see the orange clad ghouls arise.
Skeletons walk in the gloom of candles
sparkling grins peering from pumpkins.
As witches fly across the moon cackling
leaving behind a trail of shooting stars....
