we wore fringed vests, the love beads
the long hair, the hair bands, the granny glasses
the flowing clothes, the bell bottoms
a fantastic time, the memories of my youth

1960 superheroes
arrived inside our grayscale tvs
sporting fringed jackets, leather chaps, and stars on their chests
we knew they were the good guys
the bad guys wore black hats

fringed rifts tear
aside a curtain
ragged with light
stage is prepared
soft murmurs
grow into roars
voice raises to
a deafening scream
that erupts and whips
waters with
thundering applause

ruffled parrots bloom
wind brushes soft fringed feathers
july clips their pink wings

Vibrant Blue bird, on weary wings – regales us all when it sings
Steaming calves, on wobbly legs – for mother’s milk their nudge begs
Buds fringed in green, on barren stem – we anticipate spring with each of them

I do not know?
Not living
longer
but dying
slower
The chemo
dripping
death’s shadow
appears
Each moment
fringed
with a joy
ill censored
The countdown
has started
whose bell
— is near

Fringed by putrescent dusk
Fingernails dig beneath graveyard wounds
Fostered by lexical warfare
Within the harrowing fiascos of tomorrow
Nothing but bated memories
Braided by skin, coffee, and cigarettes
Branded by concrete whispers

Secret lanes spiral
taunting mystic ramblers whose
fantasies spur restless feet
to wander dream plots
that shift like sands to driven
Psyches on infinite quests
for sheds or shelters
in misty vales fringed by lush
fields tantalisingly close

Inspirations echo in the mind
Images converge,blur,deline
In glass,smoked lightly blind;
Shapes imagined erase
In esoteric haze
Where light bright tones
Soften and shade in foreground was;
Colours sear in shadows fringed
In glass,smoked lightly tinged.

calm
placid
clear blue lake
serene and still
in a wide palm-fringed
rich green verdant valley
mother duck leads and swims
in the tranquil lake
ducklings white, soft
follow her
one by
one

My closest friends, who number three
I heed not thus for loyalty
and neither camaraderie
but simply in proximity
They live not down my alleyway
nor porch, nor in my house per se
but underneath my fringed toupee
they're in my head, well stowed away

Gave Shark catnip and he turned into a hippie
Took me straight back to the seventies
Put on his fur vest and fringed headband
Made the peace sign with his paws
Became morbidly mellow
Docile, chilled, rolled onto his back
Soaked up the sun with his tongue hanging out
A happy addict

JONQUIL
You may know me as Jonquil
My cousins are daffodil and narcissus
A fringed cup surrounded by petals
Each combining white with yellow
The latter, a hue with my own name
And I’m perfumed, but they are not
Distinctive yet I shouldn’t be proud
As amaryllis, we are all still family

Fringed by lofty mountains
Pristine lakes serene
Silver sprays of fountains
Forests lush green
Pristine lakes serene
Bathed in moonlight glow
Forests lush green
where meandering rivers flow
Bathed in moonlight glow
Silver sprays of fountain
Where meandering rivers flow
Fringed by lofty mountains.

Peacocks Patterned Purpose
Oft they climb in greens and blues,
Ere fan their fringed spring timed hues,
Spread quills to reach their meant souls,
E'er sought plumes to win mates' views.

Jueju
you wear skin but
it doesn't fit
not even when you grow a bit
it's tangled, battle-worn
frazzled and fringed
mangled and torn
you wonder, if you're caught by fire
will it burn you whole
will you survive
within you are a tree
hollow heart
scars so deep
but roots so strong
that wait for rain
and sprout in spring

Yesterday delightful. Sixty degrees.
Could have warmed us up.
I hid in the house, frightened by the love of it.
Today I am sitting in my yard, wearing zebra pajamas.
A zip up suit with a pink fringed hood and a tail.
The tail is not comfortable, but cute.
The wind is brisk, almost too much so.
I do not care.
I am content.
Soaking up nature’s offerings.

Just before dawn
Basking in solitude
A Doe and her fawn
Delicately intrude
A crunch of leaves
Beneath legs of sticks
Mother Nature breathes
A chilly morning fix
Pumpkin spice
Cappuccino
This is the life
I'm glad to know
Sweater shawl
Fringed tips
All in all
A lovely glimpse
A portion of life
Too often missed
When dawn is ripe
My soul is kissed

The late December air rings
with the silence
crisp and chill.
Oceans of drifted, white, snow
crest barn doors and windows.
Frosted panes
sheets of crystalline parchment
roll, perforated like strips of ribbon candy
from tin roofs as
icicles hang from gutters
fringed like shawls.
The sharp snap of branches
masks the bark of distant dogs.

The nods pass from one balding head
to another, round the polished
oak table until it stops
with the head fringed with hair of white.
The collective pauses
while the somber man,
with heavy head,
rearranges the piles of paper.
Eyes catch on the grain
of the glowing wood.
His tired neck pulls his head
to meet the gaze of those others.
He clears his throat
to speak…

Blazing sun bursts in sky,
rays run heavenward high.
Tinsel fringed gilded cloud
floats tinged on hill’s dark shroud.
Sunbeam strip shines still sea,
gold flakes flip in gleamed spree.

This frog is straight out of the fifties
How can you tell?
He is a beatnik.
How so?
He plays bongo drums.
He has a lava lamp.
I think they were from the sixties.
And fringed vest jacket.
The seventies, honey
We stared at each other.
How old do you think this frog is?
Unsure, but he is dancing under a disco ball.
Eighties I think.
A well-rounded frog if you ask me.
