                 Golden
          Coins of our lives
        Frivolously spending
Not thinking about what matters
                Till gone....

elusive ethereal energy evades each extra entity

frivolously frolicking, fearlessly, forever flirty 

gratefully gleaning gentle grievers’ gratitude

happy heavenly hopper hastens home 

impulsive imaginings, intriguing, interested idealists...

Leaping lilies leap after the morning rain.

They sleepily stretch seeking the sunny sun.

Silky, sassy spraying their scented perfume on the purple prairie.

Young, youthful lilies

frolic frivolously on the open field.

Then they too sleep silently under a starry sky....

searching forward, dying, waning
looking for someone worth saving
always stopping, never trying
infinitely circumscribing
flowing forward, back, and forth
frivolously seeking scores
inward, outward, all around
jumping up at every sound
lost while searching, price is steep
now, i lay me down to sleep...

Listen to poem:

lurking ghostly
come the mist
hope meanders
in darkness
of frail dreams


while in the gardens
sundrenched colors
sway my mind
in leaps and bounds
where frolic butterflies
in endless flowered fields

precious time frivolously spent
wisely in the playground of my mind

Sometimes some time slips by unnoticed
Like fog on moonless cloudy night 
But once it’s gone            it’s gone for ever
Instant past          an emptied moment in
frivolously flickered flight
Smoke and sand through open fingers
Here then gone         the memory lingers
Dancing in time 
Dreaming in rhyme
Watching the moments
Drifting away
With a hot cup of tea 
at the end of the day...

Monday madness mauled my meandering melancholy mind
Tuesday tinkered tactlessly through tainted thoughtless taunts
Wednesday went without wonderful words whispered willingly
Thursday tempting taunting the tigresses to truant
Friday frivolously featured fruitful freaky fun frolics
Saturday simmered signifying sumptuous sultry spectacular scenes 
Sunday slow slovenly siesta singing sunny songs...

Endowed by my creator,
The gift of feeling
To see, hear, hate, and love thee

Searching frivolously through the night
Hope did leave me and love
I did not find
So friendship never found me, even in the blind

Endowed by my creator,
With the talent to be isolated
To be afraid and hated
And not even in the glacial rugged heights did I find solace,
Nature, who nurses her children, showed me no mercy
In the cold regions of my mind
Friendship never found me...

A summer sun shines steadily on such spicy scented scenery,
As forest fairies frolick frivolously amidst full greenery.
Birds butterflies bees and blooms waft blissfully beautiful,
Making more memorable magic, on the mad mornings so musical!

The wild wondrous whimsicality arises when none's watchful,
So there's no tangible testimony to these totally bashful.
However, historically hidden in the habitual jade habitat,
Fabled fairies frequent sun faceted forests secrets intact!...
