A misty ocean
touches umber cliffs as chintz
grass tendrils downward
toward tidal foam on summer's
tangerine and teal debut
7/22/17
Spring inks
cherry blossoms
in pinks.
Dabs lean
weeping willows
lime green.
And tints
blue waters like
glazed chintz.

Callie
Rocking in a chintz platform rocker,
Wearing a patio dress,
Day after day she hums a song,
“With someone like you.”
Through the window she watches,
He left her far too soon,
Dust and cobwebs around her gather,
She hums and rocks “With someone like you.
I’d like to leave it all behind.”
Charm the waves,
Entail algorithms of templates,
Subclass the seasonal stripes,
Smash this tasteless flame stitch.
A chevron turning into an imperial damask.
Intarsia the charming argyle in this rotunda.
Rub the blotch off the bull's eye,
Collage the camouflage in this calico assemblage.
Chintz in the heart, chequer in the mind,
Charming Patterns.
The homes displayed in magazines
Are opulent or spare.
In either case, it’s hard to picture
Ever living there.
The lavish and extravagant
To me are too ornate.
With all that chintz, brocade and toile,
I think I’d suffocate.
And as for “modern” rooms, they seem
Too empty, bare and bleak;
While some are soothed by all that space,
It’s not a style I’d seek.
So let the rich spend money
On their million dollar lairs.
My digs would not appeal to them
But nor, to me, do theirs!
