Short Boysenberry Poems

I had biscuits and gravy and my fried potatoes
Were salty and wavy
Baked beans and midnight dreams
And a cabbage salad made with malice
And poison boysenberry pie
Murderous chef ?

if tulips could talk 
and boysenberry be trees could walk
 Odin oh Shangri-La

And it Ducks could play hide and seek 
Who pulled the plug from WikiLeaks 
Down the drain as
 I go 
As the burden snow old Shangri-La

It is official,
Those who count voted,
Boysenberry Ripple Ice cream,
Made by tip top of NZ,
Is the best ice cream in NZ, 
And possibly on the planet.

It also happens to be my favourite,
By a country Mile,
And I can't wait to tell my family, 
Who think that I should be embracing salted caramel,
Really....

b>When I was little ...


cookie crumbs 
plastic drums
soft stepping Stones 
telephones heirloom

tomatoes banana split 
clinging onto mama's hip
and on the deep end 

peachy keen vanilla bean
grandma home made
cobbler boysenberry pie

MY, MY, MY
all this happens things had happen
When I was little ...

He’d take dates back to his place for late-night 
pancakes smeared with golden butter, doused 
in luscious boysenberry sauce. 
Halfway through this small repast, 
he’d lean forward, letting 
moist berry lips move 
softly over 
his lovely 
lady’s 
mouth.

pulverized bodies
of cochineal insects..
uuuummm cherry yogurt's good  

Dannon Yogurt's flavors
strawberry, cherry, 
boysenberry, rasberry 
Contain(or did contain)
Carmine food dye
made from Cochineal Insects
an arthropod native to 
Mexico and South America..
Don't that take the cake..
Some people have had
bad reactions to it also.....

transformation

pollywogs paddle
about her five year old toes
frogs in the making

summer kissed her cheek
awesome faces peer from leaves
freckles blooming now

at the waters edge
bullfrogs baroom a  mating call
dusk whispers secrets

pie shop sells lemon
apple and boysenberry
poison berry to us

blankets on cool nights
hudson bay soft wooly warm
loons serenade child...

Boysenberry,
Boysenberry,
Sweet cherry pie,
I want to eat you before I die,

Blackberry,
Raspberry,
what have you done,
you produced an offspring
that is tasty fun.

They say you covet
the ones you see, 
one day the boysenberry
will covet me.

You are perfection personified, 
You are the fruit that keeps me alive,
Boysenberry, boysenberry,
how can it be,
I'd rather eat from your bush
than fruit from a tree…...

Vanilla convocate
Cherry mamberley
Chocolate cake Alamo
Boysenberry peach pie
Lemon meringue
Main dish french fries and crepe crescent in salmon patties
Yuck all this and a tebow full of ketchup
Yum ya think your stomach's on the run
Be honest with yourself you know you want this menu
Come on man sit down and order your some
Get you some of them fried onions
Huh!
Yum!

There in the meadow where the morning dew kisses the first light 
the boysenberry makes love to the coming day.
the sun shone upon her wet petals,
she spreads her corolla,
attracting suitors to her aroma filled stigma, 
no longer is she protected,
take me! cries her pistil erected,
she is ripe and anxious to receive,
her ovary swollen with anticipation, 
her petals burning for the new conception,
there in the meadow the boysenberry makes love to the coming day…


cheers!...
