The season of thanks....

plump fruit ready for picking
a cornucopia treat
one would be wise to know how
quickly ripeness turns to rot...

fractured; the angry march
to I’s nexus

red, not gold, tracks.. wired to
perfect black

catastrophic chiroptera
see this cornucopia -

what plenty?...

Sukkot's a holiday seven days long
    supplies to buy, a home to build
  No one's inside in our neighborhood

  The fragrance of myrtle
    the esrog's beauty
  Cornucopia of pageantry
    harvest's heavenly booty...

As the wings of a butterfly uttered simplicity,
Hues aroused in me curiosity; humble is she.
Each soul, created carefully; cornucopia eyes.

Violinists warming up
  Bees buzzing 'round

Flautists' arpeggios
  Waterfalls ascending

Drums rolling
  Thunder rumbling

As they all come together
  Harmony's sounds wash over me

i knew an old cook in a diner
who was a terrible whiner
but people loved what he cooked
and the diner was always booked
no one had fare that was finer

Nuts keep falling like soft cool rain.

My mind, a cornucopia of ripening words.

Idle thoughts hanging loose
pollinated by the muse

Temptation’s beauty
dances on the winds of change
an audience of one.

Do you ever wish upon a star?
Always in search of cornucopia
You could not forget a wish like that
So it is always worth wishing on stars
To bring home joy , pleasure and play
And hoping you will hit the right arena
Right where your glorious dream will land...

THE PUMPKIN

The pumpkin smiled
like a child
with a few teeth
a bright exuberance
that lit up the night
a candy-filled carrying case
a beautiful place
for the human race
a harvest cornucopia
delighting the prunish*
exciting thoughts of utopia

October Sky – three haiku


#1

lightning strobes hearts
thunder uncoiling whips crack
eye stinging terror




#2

frosted exodus
wingtips warming on the fly
suns iced crystal glare





#3

cold hoar frost rainbow
saddened cornucopia
tears of failing sun

A cornucopia of sweets 
 For those who trick or treat
 An abundance of ghouls out there
 To give us all a scare

 Thanksgiving gives us feasts aplenty
 With delicious ham and turkey
 

 Christmas gifts abound
  beneath the Christmas tree
  Santa comes to town!

The rains have come on another Fall wind.,
nostalgia, once gone, now creeps back in.

My cornucopia overflows with things Man cannot barter or buy. 
A hand to her hand, lover's sigh to wooed sigh.

The summer overflows with lengthy days,
July 4 celebrations; freedom’s praise;
trips to the beach, swim parties, heat and haze;
vacation Bible School and sun’s bright rays.
