Cloud Crying

In your footsteps,
Feet-bottoms cleated with thorns
Stirring emotions of pain
As they jab into the clouds' backs
Beneath the feet on your selfish body
Burning with pressurous threat
Commencing the clouds to cry tears that fall
Hence, soaking me wet....

A New Poem

A new poem -
Let me revel in its newness
As I beat the way.
Let me count its lines
And wish it well
As it streams across the continents
And into beating hearts.

Happy Day of Birth

Dear dead properties, L-o-L
Now back to earth and for what it’s worth
A new year is a laudable blessing commencing rebirth
Advance in life and don’t come back, kidding 
Just don’t retreat or look back
Sweet sixteen I’m glad you’re that
On your back, me support thou sat
Feliz cumpleaños, and good luck
Love, a hungry acquaintance...

Me

I met a man called Truth,
And truth was what he wanted,
But I gave none to him.

I met a man called Love,
And he called out for me,
But I, as always, failed.

I met a man called Drunk.
AT LAST!
We both had wine together.

A Shiny Car

I will buy me a shiny car
Along the way, along the way...
I will buy many things.

I will love me a shiny ring
Along the way... along.
I will love me solitaire.

I will love me my memories
And sing and sing, but
To no one except me.

The Telephone

Light is fading
over the blackened bay
and Judy calls
without anything to say

I hear her voice
talking of prices
while the light fades
even more over the bay

Now bay is dark,
and Judy says goodbye
The telephone sits humbly,
waiting for tomorrow

The Poignancy of Boyhood

There is a poignancy in boyhood...
The high voice, and ineptitude,
The yearning to be free of mother's strings;
The awkwardness of age fifteen, to wit
A boyish sullenness.

There are some things lost when manhood gained -
And mothers cry on thinking.

White Mittens

Fog came early to Nebraska,
and slender churches became hidden.
Pastors came out of them with scarves,
their children tight-dressed 
                       and with white mittens.


Cars moved slowly,
dipped beams constant; the radio turned on.
The fog came early - unawares.

Pear Tree

Lovers Fairytale

Blissful  blossoms blooming
Look LUSTFUL lovers
Listless lovers looming 

Krazy killer kisses
Sweltering SUMMER season
Belly breathing blouses

Bayside BEACHES burning
Winter worries wane
Glorious gracious gains

HAPPY hungry hearts
Dwellings do not depart
Picture pretty parts

Take the time to talk
Let listening lead to laughter
Commencing comfortable communications

Hurry HAPPILY EVER AFTER...

Viv Knows

My vivier is rich in fish
and is at the bottom
of my garden.
I go down there to see the fish.

I go to see my bright goldfish
that swim inside the vivier.
You won't see them in the river
or in any old wild place.

I like to feed the goldfish
that swim in the vivier.
I love the fish in vivier.
Viv knows I do.

The Yew Trees

The yew trees 
Were like staid old ladies in green skirts.
They lined the way to the church door.

Like the staid old ladies,
They did not bow when the fancy vicar
Walked the path, or asked him how he was.

Like the ladies they were proud,
And all brown leaves from fancy trees
Annoyed him, just like they.

The Lake

The lake was only small
But we boated.
Not far to go...

Back and forth
On the little lake
And watching the boat go.

Back and forth and go  -
Using up the day
That won't return.
