Friday Afternoon

Friday afternoon a Jew's week winds down
His affairs wrapped up before sundown
   
   He puts away his workman's dress
   Then dons his finery, his Sabbath best

Early Spring

When early Spring gives weary Winter a shove
   Rash is he who dons garden gloves

The bracing scent of tulip's first bloom
   Oft buried 'neath wake of blizzard's doom

Harley

his hair dons dark and light
falls against little elf ears
blue eyes twinkle in the light
his smile shows a full set of pearly whites
and laughter can cause a clown to blush

Winter Night

Night
Sleeps in
Winter robe
Stars fall on dew.
Night dies in cold hours
The last breath makes the mist.
You lift the shroud like the sun
My meadow dons jewel at dawn.

Valentine's Day Surprise



Bobby’s sweetheart loves red lingerie,
which he’ll give her on Valentine’s Day.	
     He went shopping for two.
     Will she bid him adieu										when he dons his cerise negligee?

A King's Finery

Friday afternoon a Jew's week winds down
  His business shuttered
     Tired sun sinks toward the ground  

 A workingman puts away his modest dress
  ~ A newly crowned king dons his Sabbath best

Twilight Sky

twilight’s hue in view
eastern goddess takes the stage – 
venus dons her belt 


Note - Venus Belt is the earth's shadow in the eastern sky right after sunset - usually a reddish blue band on the horizon

Shes Boss

SHE’S BOSS

The man and his wife not on holiday.
He dons a long beard and his cap for pay.
Don’t sit on his lap,
You might earn her slap.
No HO for this Claus, she’s boss — do not play!

Sinewed Fire

Youth's sure, sinewed fire of limb and gait,
Reside not long not tarries late.
The unetched silk of fair Morning's face
Dons so swift a different grace,
As boastful Dawn must e'er defer
To the granite reign of Time...

Two Worlds Colliding

a tranquil meadow 
dons a velvet lupine cloak...
bees swarm in dark clouds 

vast fields honeycombed
with flora and rabbit holes...
hawks swoop down for prey

Aphrodite

Springtimes sweet caress.
    Nature dons her floral dress,
    Perfume fills the air.
    Senses seduced seek romance,
    Aphrodite's love affair.

A Change of Mood

In scarlet hues, along country lanes

Berries greet the eye.

Hawthorn, rosehip, bramble too

The season passes by.

A change of mood pervades the air,

A subtle slowing down.

Summer soon will take a bow,

As autumn dons her crown.

On the Wings of a Butterfly

A lagoon on the wings of a butterfly
  Jasmine, myrrh and frankincense flutter by
Shadows bury secrets of forests deep
  Pond's ripples extend beyond water's sleep

Ere the season dons new make-up reluctantly
  Embrace its effervescence ineluctably

Dread

Fear the tap upon thy shoulder

Dread it more as ye grow older,

It will come, there's no escape

It bears a scythe, and dons a cape.

Winter Butterflies

swollen clouds conceive
      moisture dons it’s rain cocoon
             falling softly down
      mother natures frozen breath
    birthing wings of crystaled grace

December's Treasures

The morning mist’s a pearl so pure
As ice is etched with crystal filigree
While the silvery frost ensures
A touch of tinsel on every tree

And when she dons her festive gems
Rubies, emeralds, citrines and sapphires
I cannot help but envy them
For December’s treasures I desire.
