Hugs
Hugs for you
And hugs for me
Hugged is what
I want to be.
Hug a slug
All slippery
Sliming up
Your frippery.
Hug a bug
And hug a bee
Lucky in
The lottery....

Autumn Bares
Ah
Autumn
icy wisps
curling, twisting
seek gnarly branches
impatient winds flurry
brown, red, yellow leaves gusting
frippery off quivering trees
stark proud beauty, naked, unadorned

No Words To Describe
Who needs words of description?!
Those are mere fillers of space,
They are poets' addiction
When they have nothing else to say.
Adjectives just make me shiver -
Shudder me with creeps and chills,
Should be banned from poets’ quiver -
As font of frippery and frills!

That is a tongue in cheek for a non-adjective contest. Treat it lightly please!

Mother Nature
Nature Strives to be beautiful
Morphing myriad, earthly hues
from macrocosmic frippery.
Her perfumed zephyrean breaths
Intoxicate the atmosphere
Stirring those that breathe to wildness
That only her tempestuous
Violence ultimately tames;
Yet her yin can be most tranquil
As not to ruffle a fledglings
Feathers or ripple mountain tarns.
She favors none of her children
within her sphere of influence
sustaining only the strongest....

A Catholic Boy Returns
Push me in the door once more,
scrub me for the alter.
Return me to the sacraments,
the rituals,
the wafer and wine.
Place me, dazzled
among votive candles
that are such fat bones
for the weak flesh.
To each Holy Sister a token,
a little lingerie kept secretly -
a sign that love
with all its depths, frippery and frills,
will prevail.
On a Sunday,
we will lower Him
from the cross of our guilt,
chant:
enough, enough, enough!...

Walk Tall
Who says I am small
to lead and reach a Goal,
rain or shine, I walk tall
by my actions led by my Soul.
I carry no frippery
yet I shelter the tall,
even in paths slippery
I tread with no fear at all.
Life may seem to have its slant
miss not the higher Goals it shows,
be not lost in your own rant
Life is not all about one’s woes.
