From Scratch

Pie in the oven!
The flaky crust is browning,
Sugar crystallized.
Apple filling, juicy sweet,
I’ll eat it all by myself.

A Tale of Grey Grief

A tale of grey grief 
Told by a browning old leaf 
Made green ears turn stiff:

What witnessed I have
You all would one day, be brave,
It all ends in grave.

The Eagle Cries

So much lost…
 so little gained

Prairies in judgment,
our destiny framed

So little gained
for what we lost

Spirits now orphaned
—tomorrow the cost

(Browning Montana: Blackfoot Reservation - May, 1995).

Premium Member Grilled Cheese

A grilled cheese for lunch
Is enjoyable
The sandwich in pan
Then browning both sides
Notice the cheese melt
Then ready to eat

With chips on the side
Or a few pickles
Don't forget the beets
Together they blend
When eaten with cheese 
Makes a perfect meal

Premium Member SEED FOR THOUGHT

He lays motionless
Amid the browning leaves
his tiger striped coat
More than a disguise

The bird feeder
Drew the combatants
A swaying dance floor
Scattering its bounty

He would wait
Stragglers would come
Eagerly anticipating
A last call

He would provide it

Premium Member autumn faerie and her browning wand

Autumn faerie touched her wand to a yellow mum.
The mum’s colors turned crispy and an October brown.
Whether she retains her yellow next year is up to fate.
Some mums do, others do not, I never know which I have.
Autum faerie is aware, fully in the know, she rules October.

Fall

It’s gradually falling
Summer is increasingly lolling
The leaves are gently browning
We can’t wait for October’s crowning
When the gold leaves of lustre 
Charm the fold with their cluster,
Flamboyantly trooping the autumn colours 
And socially grouping them with lullers.

Sky's blue ! Where are you? Ground's, browning... Alone Rotten bones. You hear the sound? Rumbles of rambling? Can you just handle? Those blue skies the brown ground! Lucifer's sampling...

Premium Member Ebony Blacken Body-

His ebony tongue mouth discord; Abundant flourished uncured; Purple Heart death came close; Browning skies fled past the nose to throat; Blues blue brews asking hosts; Blackness is the body of the voice ;

Premium Member Gonna B Hot

Billowing bellows
Blatantly belching
Blowing cold air
Blazing the fire.

Bloated to bursting
Building the heat,
Burning the charcoal
Browning the meat.

Burgers are ready
Bangers are hot,
Bread buns are toasted
Brown sauce in the pot.

Premium Member STRAND POETIC REVIEW sep 7

To Elizbeth Barrett Browning
invalidity from riding did bring
Putting aside this tragic hurt
she elope to marry her Robert
Her Petrachan sonnet we see
an abba abba then cdecde
A sestet follows the octave
a love poesy we all crave

twin souls was her song
heart to heart,all the day long

Premium Member Soliloquy

Autumn here slices
Icy cold windy,
Autumn here splices
Pieces of icy.


I linger inside
Starve away icy,
I linger outside
Icy bites greet me.


Falling leaves yellow
Browning death feisty,
Falling leaves hollow
Endings now meet me.

Premium Member Browning Winter's Spring

tis spring the brown lawns 
the naked branches on the 
trees brisk winds tickling
~
rays of sun dawning
moisture to do on the ground 
horizonal viewed
~
hang on ground brown will 
soon turn green the surroundings
this be winter's spring

A Cherished Book

The best books have a little
love in them. Whether it be
a taped spine or a
half-creased cover
a forgotten dog-ear or
a few margin-scribbles
a browning of the pages
or perhaps a signature
the more time a book spends
in the company of men
the better it learns how to tug
at their heartstrings.

Premium Member THANKFUL FOR WORDS of LOVE


Today I’m thankful for words of love
Love is a feeling many a poet has tried to express…
but, for today at least,
I like to think…
Elizabeth Barrett Browning said it best:


You know in your heart your love is true…
When you can say
“I love you not only for what you are
but for what I am when I’m with you.”

Reading Robert Browning

Now don’t get me wrong
I love that old song
I’ve been singing it most of my life
But it’s really quite loud
And the noise of the crowd
Is really annoying my wife
So please keep it down
Or take it to town
Before I have cause to regret
I’ve been drowning my fears
In too many beers
My Browning is loaded with tears
