Crickets welcome night
Dew clings to my fading dreams
Aesop’s fables live

oceans dry away, away
and night comes to swallow the day
so to do dreams fade away, away
and become fables that old men would say...

fables
myths
far away
daydreams
               interludes..
of   winter fog
of   sunny days
of    life   at play

..just yesterday...

Sipping love's velvet
In orange yellow cracks..
Swept and red tale's tilting 
Through times, bronzed quills
Poetry seasons fables lore; vieta....

beyond scriptures, fables and myths
each node of form is with rapture lit
our abode this storm, where we shine
soul and universe, make a perfect fit...

Brains beam back connections as dreams
While sorting much data in streams
But these mind fables
Come with graphic labels
Like symbols in Microsoft Teams...

Once we were lovers,
            
             now separate tables.

Once we were reality,

                now we are fables.

A Yorkshire terrier in Coral Gables
should be honored in Aesope’s Fables
When a brat stole her bone
she ate his snow cone
Moral: Your victim just might turn the tables!...

              lunar fables washed ashore

Grateful for the old one’s tales,
Admiration and love in their lore.
Gleaned delicately in orange glow.
Natural extension of campfire magic.
Love crackling through hot popping embers....

Cat and canary at odds through the day
A game of chase hunts his delicious prey
But Tweety turns tables
Just like Aesop’s fables 
End game birdy tweets, hubris doesn’t pay!

I own a rooster
live on a farm
the animals vote
I am simply caretaker

Under my farm
there is a huge bunker
a thousand men in uniform
systems, equipment and missiles

I am simply caretaker...

Spoke of, as tiptoed through
With trepidation.
"Each fierce life-shaping clue
Throws a possessed look!"

In fables, darkest read.
Darkest of routing
In, out, bamboozling led
None creepier spook....

Faith

Found in God's Holy Word
Forever reminder
Foundation for future
Family and friends share
Fables not basis for
Floundering without it
Fantastic quality

An agreed upon history…
fables abound

To share in the memories,
what’s lost and then found

Our story rechristened,
linked moments in time

New legacy written
—in couplets of rhyme

Buried treasure
deep in the abyss of turquoise
Buried treasure
like a queen in captivity,
of vanished glory, a drowned voice,
fables of when she did rejoice, 
Buried treasure

O, feral feline, femme fatale 
   Her fancy footsteps faintly fall...
                        ..In far-flung forests, in fables tall
                             Winged fairies flutter
                             Flights of fancy enthrall...

The words drip from your lips
Like water from a faucet
The lies and fables 
Is screeching to unfold
The truth will set you free
If not in bondage you will be
So lift the veil on every secret and every lie
Your wings flap free
You will soar so high…...

Ivory bushes bear
accelerated evolution
and abstract incarnations
a reverie reserved as veil
fables too blatant to reveal
crescendos rise within
what remains of
the cityscape's heartbeat
science knows what we fear

Save my soul from this demonic paradox
No cure for this evil
So don't bring your amoxicillins
No decription to the feeling
All carry no meaning
Lies and fables carry more reason for beliving
The pain is close to burning in fire and your blood steaming
Am I halusinating...
