With extravaganza so verbal
&Tachists art so gestural...

CREATION
new birth 
in sky and earth-
continuously

a kaleidoscopic
of a vibrant extravaganza-
eternally...

at rows of quick aliens - -

monochrome bouquets 
mingle with multicolored ---
streams of silent bells 

gorgeous gold glitters 
of bloom extravaganza ---
nude noxious beauty

Sing Us A Stanza

We want someone to sing us a stanza
About when we entered an extravaganza
Forgot child support;
Spend a day in court;
After trying to find a big bonanza.

Yada yada yada love those enchiladas
Any time of the day, so it makes me fatta
Nothing else spins my noodle
Could eat oodles and oodles
Italy wouldn't exist without my pasta extravaganza...

a dazzling
firework display
spectacular
bursts of colour
exuberant extravaganza...
nature in passionate mood...
irresistibly
I yield to temptation.

Life can be a symphonic bonanza,
A philharmonic extravaganza,
A choral sunrise,
And an orchestrated surprise,
A conducted ecstasy,
An instrumental epiphany,
These are the peccadilloes of life,
The crescendo of my eternity....

Apple brought culture,
delightful extravaganza.
Fab group
harvest idiomatic jive.
Knockers, louts
many neutrals,
organized parasites, quietly rebel,
submit to uncompromising venom
when expediency yielded zealousness!

PALMER EKPHRASIS
the Shoreham
    garden
scent
of
blossom fills
  a white
blaze of spring
in
a profusion of clouds

an extravaganza
of stylised
 enigma
proliferates
before
  the eye
 &
   stays
imprinted

Inspired by Samuel Palmer’s in

Grooms not nervous now
Brides expecting more
Fathers going broke
Mothers counting money
Frizzle frazzle day

What happened mints?
What happened cake?
What happened punch?
What happened nuts?

More more more
Everything
Bridezilla

Simple?
Lovely?
Not quite.

'Twas a Sunday extravaganza,
To eat dinner, watching Bonanza.
     Hoss’s plight so intense,
     That my state of suspense,
I cannot describe in one stanza!

In the darkness, extravaganza,
Flaming, blazing drama,
Sky rockets and sparklers,
So spectacular, 
Fireworks in my brain,
Flaming illumination, 
Catherine wheels,
Are you for real?
The pyrotechnics
Was it all a squib?
Crescendo..
To diminuendo...

I float down from clouds above,
Another little death of love........

SILHOUETTE (3/23) — PARADOX


Rainy discourse
Monsoon extravaganza;
Flash of insight

~~~~~

Stern voice
Knows deep poise
Maps pure choice
Watch joy sing
With kind fling

Charm thrills
Heart that wills
As mind heals
Feel good grace
Flood this space

A tombstone cleaning workshop—
don’t bother the ghost…it’s sold out!
You can no longer finger this rest stop.
How about this Halloween turnout!

Will it be a Poppins extravaganza,
sweeping and polishing to Step in Time?
It’s a grave matter to the living, who plans a
cleaning party— the chance of a lifetime.

FOUR CUBED

Four words a line,
Four lines a stanza.
Four of these comprise
Ms. Hawley’s next extravaganza.

Three words won’t satisfy;
Five are too numerous.
And, one more condition,
She’d like it humorous.

That’s two verses done
And I’ve barely commenced.
It’s not my nature
To write lines condensed.

But, if she insists,
I’ll follow her law.
Sixty one, sixty two,
Sixty three, sixty four.

I need a little bit of color in the kitchen, I lied.
My husband laughed.
He knows that I do not “do” little.
I tore it up, and redid it from top to bottom.
It went from dull, blah, ordinary brown and beige to an extravaganza.
“I would never be bold enough to try this!” my cousin said.
“Why did you do it?” asked me mother.
She thrives on brown and beige.
“Has your mother ever met YOU?” my husband asked after she left....

We never know when death will come,
so I cast my worries aside.
When I first heard the news, my heart went numb,
and then the diagnosis I denied.
Finally acceptance came as I cried.

Sands are pouring through the hourglass,
but faith now saves me from fear.
The beauty of heaven waits and I have a pass.
At God’s plan, I will not sneer
as I prepare to approach a blessed frontier.
