Muscles define....

the soil a rich deep dark brown

Her pure, gentle soul,
It beckons me to her side.
With dark brown eyes,
That pull me into a world,
of sweet, sweet serenity....

Ice cold pina colada:
Melted coconut
Jelly in pine apple juice
Dark brown, rich sugar
Cinnamon, a slut
Now set loose
Moans!...

Chicory chew chew, tobakky chaw
I love my pappy. I love my ma.
Spit in a tin can, straight from my jaw
Chicory chew chew, tobakky chaw....

His
circles
overlap
in an eclipsed
sky-
tones
of colour
radiate
on a dark brown
ground.

• His butterscotch skin
• His dark brown curls
• A popular man amongst the girls
• I often wonder if I'll be fine
• If that charming prince was mine...

There once was a lady from London
Whose blouse inadvertently came undone
Out popped this guy
With two dark brown eyes
And a jolly jiggle, dum-dee-um-dum...

After spending a night on the town
and drinking ale - a hearty dark brown,
we were feeling sooo frisky,
tried moves a bit too risky,
quickly learned: What goes up, must come down!...

the blanket of snow
marked only by tracks of birds
hunting for a meal
dark brown heads against stark white
camoflaged no more by trees

lost child haunts me
small finger whispers on my neck
I keep this to myself
I keep her to myself
imagine
dark brown eyes of mine
mind drifts to her sweet face
lost at birth
I will always miss you
sweet girl...

Dark brown eyes intimidate
Is that why
You couldn’t say this to my face?
Are you afraid to burn
In the line of my vision?
Or maybe you’re scared to love
These dark brown eyes
I’ll close them if it eases your pain...

In
A bed
They grow tall
Golden yellow
Blossoms surround seed
Pods of dark brown beauty
Prickly, scratchy leaves upon
Strong, sturdy green stalks that reach high
Aiming for illuminating sun   ...

Dark brown eyes,I hear your silent cries.
Hurt and pain consume you,you smile past the pain
but I see right through you.At the end of every tunnel 
there is a light,all I ask is that you dont give in and 
you put up a fight!...

Your mischievous gaze
your dark brown eyes, not as shiny as they should be
tell a very sad tale
straight from your heart

I offered you an
Olive branch...

Being with your broken
soul, whilst trying
to repair my own
was just hurting us more...

Tiny and tender.
The image of your true family.
Dark brown hair just like your mom.
Eyes all a glow.
Tall and sleek you have grown to be.
A true likeness of the me I use to be.
Amazing how it seems, you are not here with me.
Unfair and unkind I feel we are so behind....

On a painted wall
In a dark brown frame
A photo is shown 
One Evergreen tree
Standing in water
Across from this tree
Is a small patch of land
With three Evergreen trees
In a huge body of water
Or a large river
With the land showing
On both sides trees
With a mountain view...

Behind Those Eyes

What’s behind those dark brown eyes?
A scheming mind, a selfish streak
Blaming others, with blatant lies
Words of scorn crammed in cheek
Emptied on a victim when confronted
Defensive beyond any other I’ve known
Dismissive, emphatic, if cover blown.

Red is the color of the blood dripping off the blade.

Dark brown is the color of my eyes looking back in the blood stained chrome!

Pink is the color of my scars on my arm!

Green and purple are the colors of bruises on my skin.

AND YET I STILL SAY IM FINE!

Black Nazarene
Christ of dark brown skin
Miraculous healer
Refuge of the believer
Image replicated from an old burnt homage
Carrier of the cross in pilgrimage
Housed in Quiapo church of the East
Roused the penitents of yearly feast
Savior of the strong and weak
Strength of the devouts that speak...

How happy are orange carrots!
Are you upset by how colored they are?
Does it tear you apart to see the carrots so chromatic?

I cannot help but stop and look at brown walnuts.
Are you upset by how dark-brown they are?
Does it tear you apart to see the walnuts so brownish?

How happy is the wooly cantaloupe!
Never forget the soft and addled cantaloupe....

He said it once he said it thrice
made her heart melt like ice.

He kissed her once he kissed her twice
it tasted sweet like sugar and spice.

He hugged her once he hugged her twice
arms so strong it felt so nice.

He looked into her dark brown eyes
feelings  could not be disguised.

He held her hand squeezed it tight
as he gently whispered goodnight....
