Short Carr Poems

Mum..Why did you give me lego hair.?
To upstage my Alan Carr teeth
And stretch that grey nylon pinefore
Tight
To ridicule my chubby young knees
 
And why dear mummy
Was my elastic bands so tight
As they struggled around my chubs
Was Battleship grey 
The fashion
Of socks those days..
Dear mummy
.
Me thinks not!...

Autumn in France by Emily Carr 1911
PORTRAIT NO. 5

AUTUMN
by Jeanette Jones

Homes across the countryside, 
sits amidst of Autumn.

Whispers of wind play rapidly in the dark,
as leaves await for daylight to hit the ground.

Morning float into play, as the moon gives in, to the sun.

Admiration of lovers passing by
capture birds in flight.
Smiles on the faces, they brace for the breeze
of Autumn....

Dane 
Intense, emotional, intelligent, curious 
Sister of Charme Carr and Ray Crawford III Phd
Lover of the creative thought processes 
Who feels passionate, loyal, and at times frustrated 
Who fears too much government power, interference, and oppression.  
Who would like to see God the Father, Jesus Christ, and Beyond the Vail.

Painting #5
Autumn in France by Emily Carr 1911

Coats of Autumn 

Satisfied, 
long awaited 
summer fades  
into an explosion 
of color, I bask
in the many coats of Autumn 
draped across the shoulders 
of a grateful people.

Merci to the Creator 
of such splendor, 
I behold textures 
unlike any other 

As far as the eyes can see, 
I stare into unmeasured  
beauty, absorbing it all 
before the snow brings 
beauty of its own....

I wonder for what i ride,
I ride a journey of life.
I travel a world,
Where everything is like puzzle.

Here roads are widder,
But mindset is narrow.
Here buildings are high,
But character is low.

Here criminal rules the world,
And good ones don't even utter a word.
Where one is killed for just few bucks,
And respect for women is just a duck.

I wonder when this world,
Would understand this simple words.
" love , carr and respect "
Without which this ride is a flop...
