Fern Burn

A young lady from Lucerne,
Had a rather lovely green fern,
But when she went on holiday
It lacked regular water spray
And developed a case of sunburn.

Fern

No greater shadow than ferns teeth
Sheltering the infant saplings underneath,
The same soil where strangling vines sleep
What the forest grows, also reaps

Premium Member WINTER STORM FERN

~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~ Snowdrifts swallow streets~ the city holds its breath, counting cracks in ice. Somewhere, a radiator sings of warmth we'd almost forgotten.

Premium Member WINTER STORM FERN

~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~ Fern's frozen fingers scrape the eaves, each gust a hymn~ a banshee howling. the powerlines hum low grief, while snow-blind streets hold their breath.

The Fern

The silk fern herringbones the sunlight.
Its prehistoric tendrils fan the morn:
A living fossil to take urgent flight.

It whispers in dark inaudible moan,
Spawning in our rich volcanic earth,
Secrets where our seed was first sown

In fragile perpetuity.

Premium Member Maiden Hair Fern

For you, my lover and my friend,
this Maiden made of light green hair,
feathered fronds of fan-shaped leaves,
and fineness of its thin, dark stems.
Famed maiden-name of maidenhood
is formed in misty woodland wood.

I would you have this gift so green
I found along a rippling stream
to shade your face in summer's heat,
or place in vase with Queen Anne's Lace.

Premium Member Ugly Plastic Fern

Doctor’s office
The fern in the corner is plastic
They couldn’t afford silk?
There is nothing refreshing about it

There is a candy jar
The old guy has been up there six times
I know because he brings the wrapper to me
I am sitting next to the wastepaper basket

That fern is disturbing
Anything that ugly should not be shared
I would be doing them a solid
If I put it into the wastepaper basket with these wrappers

Premium Member The ICE Capades

The I.C.E. Charades

Fern refuses to thaw Minnesota's ICEy glades
While three million pages expunge during harsh raids
Leering predatory smiles
at redacted Epstein files
Evidence held, elite absolved, absurd charades! 

Although its reviews mixed and complementary
It was more a confusing than tenet documentary 
Immigrant Melania
shipped back to Slovenia?
Away from the creepster Trump penitentiary
