drawl

slow, easy, breathy,
like butterscotch in the sun.
flows across the air
clings languidly to the ear.
throaty whispers rise like scent....

Listen to poem:

sound it out
let it be heard
to mute is so absurd
let's hear it out
not drawl on written word
mouthed in silent blurb
to no one who called out...

The Yankee rancher still blusters
in a drawl he barely musters
launching holy wars
while behind locked doors
he would give more head than Custer....

Politicians are suave but not soothing
Saying much but very little proving
With accent or drawl
They spin one and all
So beware when their lips are moving...

Politicians are suave but not soothing,
Saying much but very little proving.
With accent or drawl,
They spin one and all,
So beware when their lips start moving....

A sonnet, anecdote,or verse
read by you, 
each page of memory followed
with deep hues,
recited in a beautiful tone
I stumble,
the visions stirring on my mind
as you drawl....

Mc Jagger’s swagger, a southern drawl, I fell for
He gets stupid occasionally, bad behavior
So I made him my sancho
and now call him Pancho
The Stones play as he struts through the back door!...

A ball of orange
A pumpkin ball
Fat and round
stripes that drawl

Orange and bright
White with glow
Stem on top
Bent and frow

Skin that's speckled
Flat and cratered
Glossy, shiny
Like a gator...

Bellbirds of South America have the loudest call
Their mating call is the loudest call of them all
In a new scientific study
Blew a toupee off  my buddy
Those Bellbirds also chirp with a southern drawl...

I'm a Country Boy;

  they call me Redneck.

Over here, that's the thang.

  now .please don't mind

  my country drawl, ya'll.

   nor my redneck slang,

  Heck,  just being me, is all.

I once knew a poet named Paul
The English he spoke with a drawl.
His major concern
To write and to learn
To walk with head high and not crawl.

No way!
am I a
pessimist,
a realist,is what
I say-
I am
not an ass,
donkey maybe
definitely,male not
a lass-
I talk
very slow,
but this I know
fresh sweet carrots help my
words flow-
slowly
one by one,
this pleasing drawl
holds all my many fans,
in thrall

Arnold Palmer was knock-kneed
  when he addressed the ball
President Clinton smoked weed
  yet said he never inhaled at all

Tiger Woods fell in love with a Swede
  though their marriage did sputter and fall
President Biden's been known to mislead
  folks ~ He's still 'that senator' with a drawl...

When I think of you...
The stars aline
The brease slows
Waves of ember grains chimes
The world slowly turns
Gravity decrease
Sweeping me off my feet.

When I see you....
World fades
To be only you
Handsome and tall
With your deep southern drawl
Perfect and not
Just makes you
The one I choose over all....

Morning tumbles into my arms,
I give a gentle hug,
Smooth down 
Her long gauzy dress,
Run my fingers through her rays
And braid sweet pea tendrils in blond pigtails.

Lifting up her quivering chin
I gaze into sapphire eyes,
Drawl encouraging morning words:
“Good” and “glory”,
“Dove”,
And she embraces the petunia day....

Silent lips, slightly curved upwards
Intense eyes like blue spruce, seem so cold
The fire glows and burns me with his smile
The fire bellows across my heart, an all consuming passion
When his slow southern drawl tickles my neck,
I am defenseless against his charms


Blue spruce is a blue green color, in case you don't know....

The sun and sand invites
Come and rest, bring your poetry notebook, find your calm place
See the sights

Write poetry fine
Stay, clear your thoughts in this whist space
Align

Bird calls
Waves, their paces
Drawl

The sun and sand invites
Stay, clear your thoughts in this whist space
Drawl

Behind the scenes of life...

The curtains raise and fall...

...the fractured mind awaits...

...with entertainment with drawl...

...The stage echoes ovation...
greeted with applause...

Behind the scenes of life
the curtains raise and fall...

...spotlight thrust the opening line...

life's no dress rehearsal...

stampede to the exit...

tickets all recalled......

The song
Of your voice 
Such a sweet sound
Has me mesmerized
The pitch and tone
Dance in my head
Hypnotizing words
In a southern drawl
Music to my soul
A voice that
Could coerce me
To do anything
One I want to hear
Forever when my old
Ears can barely hear
Sweet whispers
Causing my heart
To flutter 
A soft melody
Of safety
The song 
Of your voice...

Do you look into me as I look into you
Or does the blue blank out what in me is true
Do you see the badge and the gun so real
And never wonder what inside me is the real deal

They say that you walk and talk a special drawl
And always sit with you back up against a wall
But you know at the end of the day 
Cut me and I will bleed away.
