Premium Member Dandelion Doily
good morning my frothy white mini doily
love your lacy presence welcoming another day
you may be barren by nightfall my beauty
Kansas winds blowing your seeds away...

Premium Member My Confession My Redemption
My confession is so relentless;
With parted lips;
I doily confess;
I am a sinner on the run;
My redemption just begun;
As my confession is my redemption;
Save me Lord;

Premium Member Waiting Is My Mainstay
waiting is my mainstay
I am a wife and mother
I do not mind
I relish waiting

I can crochet a pink hat
tat a lacy doily
draw a dragon cartoon
write a poem

design a business card
I am a Gemini
I can entertain myself and gladly
I was lying about the doily; I never learned to tat...

Premium Member A Lyrical Swell
Starlight stirs my coffee

the moon a soft croissant

hangs upon a painted sky

lilac or saffron my essence

new tidal ebb in accession

impassioned lyrical swells 

rise as the sun falls we gaze

in a haze of dusty rhymes

biscuits await upon a doily 

spiced rum waits for no one....

Premium Member Kermit and Miss Piggy
When Kermit the Frog
Found love at his synagogue
It was unexpected
How instantly they connected

The lovely Miss Piggy
Posing right next to Twiggy
Strategically waving her doily
Batted her eyelashes coyly

Premium Member Still Life - With Fruit, Doily and Bottle
STILL LIFE - WITH FRUIT, DOILY AND BOTTLE

They spill!
Of her he’d had his fill
He tipped the table
Dumped!
Her oranges, apples, pears
Surprised the tea cup biddies -
Set them on their ears -
Then, with her priceless lacey cloth
Had wiped the floor of fruity froth
Hence he meant to finish the job 
Attacked the bottle with a fork
Laughed, then pulled the noisy cork...

Snow-Prints
Snow-prints


White haired tree tops
along the road with bird’s tip toes
and paw prints slightly froze.
White dust across the face, 
flakes in spiral looking like doily lace.
Wind song notes
and feather puffed coats.

Timberland walls from sidewalks
to  wool socks
sheltering the warmth
of the blistering scene just miles in width.


A chill above and not to far from below.
A picture frozen during our time walking in the snow!...

BEQUEATHED BONNIE SQUARE
                         
                           a lacy handkerchief
  embroidered with a hummingbird,
a nectar-sweet trellis, to sponge
  the waterworks - the trickle
             of misty eyes,
        the honey-suckled creek
     that runs over wrinkled
logs and leafy plum-cheeks.
  delicate hands lift
     the dapper doily —
       pat-a-pat dabbing.
a tattered smile forms
  at the base of the cliffs.
