Proud Flags of a Fool unfurled-
Fell upon Life's jagged rocks
I closed my Door unto the World,
But, alas! It has no locks!

Autumn's Aura

Season’s sweat sets steadily on the streets
Flowers’ flags float faintly on the floor
Autumn’s aura awash avidly on the acacia

Furled Flowers

The red salvia colors our lawn,
Later their flags are withdrawn
As the winter arrives and destroys
Innocent, red-flower joys.

Thank You For Your Service



I hear the flags whisper
Stiffened by a free wind
Blowing across a memory
Of friendship, of valor
Of sacrifice
Of freedom

The One Who Survives


Ten men
War clouds roll in
Bullets rain, fight the storm
Eighteen hands now crossed, under flags
Folded

Slow Signals Short Poem On Double Posts and Other Things

Heard the word
Flags have unfurled
My double posts
Gone round the world
Have patience friends
For wayward signals
They are as dicey
As worm wiggles

Rainbow

Foolish virtue,
Flying with vultures.
Stupid light,
Shining in darkness.
dirty  pig,
Dancing  on the pit.
Flags of rainbow,
Hoisted in Sodom.

Peas

In a pod not a boat
but pry yellow tee flags 

red
did he say pea green
almost there
to the 8th
a couple more to the
forces of evil disappear

We Are Shivering In the Hot Wind

dry wells of summer
fill with borrowed
love
dark books of torture
torn flags of deceits
procession of
greeds
we are shivering in
the hot wind

Flag Ship

A black cloud circles.
Man's doom is seen in the sky.
The storms at the ports,
Where trade and commerce soon die,
Ships and flags still floating by.

At the Track

At the Track
At the starting line
Engines revving vroom, vroom, vroom
Burning rubber - GO
Flags are waving zoom, zoom, zoom
Better stop now for new tires

To Honor Our Dead

tombstones stand row in row
American flags fly peacefully among the dead
their blood was not shed in vain
they served,
they honoured,
they stood for America!

Golden Platform

Corn silk flags the wind
Sunflowers dance the road's ditch
sun falls down the sky
leave me end of day wonder
tip like a wink over pond.

As Dust Settles

the sun is erased

   behind a cloud of despair-

     days froze to silence

       dust stung eyes of the earth, flags

           escaped their closets...

Handicapped access and Six Flags is an oximoron

Overheard in the exit line of the mine train ride:
Four year old girl states "That ride made my tummy very angry!!"

Broken Picker

A broken picker...
           
           has history of ignoring flashing red flags

                   when picking significant others

Widow Warriors

WIDOW WARRIORS

Flags trumpet the depths of sorrow,
As slow steps mirror wretched tears.
Loved ones shell, overflown with grace,
As widow warriors pick up the fight.
