hop on the back
of the Cheshire cat,

faint into the void,
ladling out clusters of
pinkish-blue whipped dreams

As wily as the Cheshire Cat
Leaving almost nothing behind
A gigolo with ego fat
He was truly one of a kind
Definite cad in everyone’s mind

A kindle of
Black cats
Wearing wide
Cheshire smiles
Pointing their
Yellow eyes
Scolding the
White mice
For crossing
The line

bit by bit she disappears

A crescent moon,
The smile of Lewis Carroll’s Cheshire cat.

Yellow taxis caught in traffic
A row of sunflowers.

Two feathers
Caught from
The edge of
Your mouth
From north
To south
Indeed, we
Shall witness
The Cheshire cat's
Mischievous grin
Saying once more,
Who are you

Cyril Ramaphosa
his voice box sometimes goes hoars-a
swallowed a Cheshire Cat, great white smile
running miles keeping da Amerikanos on the dial

Cheshire Moon
the bottom half of the moon smiled
grinning through the haze of dawn
soft glow casting shifting shadows
across the glistening hoarfrost

A strange Cheshire feline, gold eyes neon-bright
Floats like a phantom with teeth glowing white
His low, haunting purr
Adds an eerie allure
For our kids every Halloween night

she has
tattooed
on the back
of her leg
a Cheshire Cat
i saw it
once
while walking behind
her looking at
her behind
then it
disappeared
but
by staring
my grin stayed
on

At his mad tea party; the Mad Hatter
climbs on the table braking cups and plates
provoking Alice, while in the patch the red ace
of hearts is bating Cheshire the blue chatter.

Carly Simon
Songstress, big hair, and a huge smile
Cheshire cat teeth you can see across the Nile
You’re So Vain—Just might be about Jagger
Love her—Itsy-Bitsy Spider—and all her swagger

Prose and its narrative
the lazy alternative
Words most abundant
meaning defined
Declarative function
it reads codependent
As poets but smile
— with language refined

Bubble balloon buffoon did not need jester hat
His costume designed by merry Cheshire cat
Argyle socks created by cirque du Soleil
Splattered paint on coat has much to say
A walking artwork, enhancing this weird Tuesday.

night make your move
blue-gray tiger stripes and
whiskey yellow eyes
catch the moon
by surprise and
turn it into a
neon white
Cheshire cat smile
then asking
in your casual
baritone voice
Alice do you know
where you are going
my dear

If someday we do profess
Wear your brand new midi dress,
Fun shoes, denim jacket too
No one else but me and you
I'll tie my hair back, nice cologne
Cheshire boots will set the tone
A quiet moment with no fuss
'Til later on when it's just us

She crushed my feelings into smithereens
Spitting on them and kicking them with a weird joy
Her face distorted into a Cheshire cat grin
I could see her soul loved hurting me
Her mean knife was sticking out of my side
She made a running jump into it

what glee
and gleam
i dream
a dream of
the crescent moon
at night
that hang from
starry sky in sight
the neon white smile of
black and purple
stripped cheshire cat
that ask
who are you
before he
fades away
with delight
on the
otherside of night

Consistently sincere
rock solid.
Formidably weathering trite storms.
Carol your dedication
exemplifies
exemplification.
Whether shocked or soothed there you are
discerning
smart
shrewd
kind
You know your own mind.
The Cheshire cat's toothy grin
has nothing on you.

Ode
Both black and white
Kittens wearing pink
Mittens, sit playfully,
While facing the
Enchanted mirror
To their great surprise,
Those lovely kitten eyes
Witness a paper tiger
Appearing in the mirror
With a great big
Cheshire cat smile
Then, asking, who
Are you

April evening, blue and pink
The Cheshire moon is grinning wide
The first faint stars begin to wink
What kind of secrets do they hide?
April evening, pink and blue
The poet strives to pen a rhyme
Of star jasmines and starlit dew
And tranquil as a twilight chime.

Rhyme
Part calico, part Cheshire, part polecat,
kits learn secrets of disguise
from Papa Cat, king of stealth.
"Goodnight, my little ferrets,
tomorrow, we climb trees."

The poem I dreamed last night
this morning has disappeared
like Alice's Cheshire Cat.
It seemed to vanish line by line
leaving me somewhere between
a Hatter and a Hare,
and they're both mad you know.
We're all mad here~
we must be or we wouldn't have come
to this Wonderland of Words.
