Oh sweet Christ Child I wonder
if the Wise Men ever knew
that Party frocks and cheese balls
would someday overshadow you?
Lovely
little ladies
in frocks of colors bright;
tulips swaying in gentle breeze,
delight

For Sara Kendrick's Cinquain contest
Damsels in golden frocks,
Dance in warm Spring breezes.
Distinctive trumpet blooms
Dazzle the eyes after
Dreary Winter's grey gloom.
Delightful in bouquets,
Dangerous if eaten.
citrine shine petals
competes to bloom first in spring ---
shuns by the sun taunts
perennial smile
brim fills from roots to the bloom ---
flips like frills of frocks

Fifteen frenzied fowls with frilly frightening feathered frocks
Pirouetting, prancing, preening against granite rocks
Generating elongated, lively lollygagging locks,
Strutting around in their striped chicken-like socks.
French lilacs outside my window curse en francais
for the air is too cold and the sky is too grey
and they are unable to wear their pretty frocks
of which they have been sewing frantically to
be in time for the opening of the May fashion show..
Hibiscus ladies greet the day
Unfurl your painted skirts of scarlet
And greet the tropic sun
Turn your face upward
And let the whisper of a breeze
Gently move your flower
Then at day's end
Quiety close your frocks
And sleep in the cool of the night

I once met a girl wearing fuzzy socks
Overtop she wore those polka-dot crocs
She was hardly a catch
For me not quite a match
Although I did like her pretty blue frocks.

I remember her young and cool,
When my mates acted the fool.
I remember her long flowing locks,
And how she filled her many frocks.
I remember the tears,
And the joy we shared,
We were always together,
In love, what a pair.
But now you're gone, dragged away,
I'll find you again, promise, one day.
I saw a Hippopotamus going to the fair,
wearing pink pyjamas with a bow up in his hair,
he was followed by a Zebra who was wearing bright
blue socks,
a Chimp and a Koala bear, wearing matching frocks,
they climbed into the teapots looking quite a sight,
and a little old man spat out his teeth as they gave him quite a fright!
I am a gnu but I wanted to be an ox.
Or an antelope or artic fox.
Enlightened by summer’s equinox,
Rowing my boat like a well-trained cox,
Please meet me today down by the docks.
Where maidens preen in pretty flowered frocks.
But do not wear those stupid ugly argyle socks.
I will be the large one wearing the face of the ox.
A rising, young starlet named Ruth,
Unaware that it was uncouth,
Wore sneakers and socks
With her formal frocks,
‘Til Miss Manners taught her the truth.
Designers now over their shocks,
Are thinking quite out of the box.
Though they are annoyed,
They are duly employed
Sewing diamonds on argyle socks.
For Carolyn's Ccontest
She wore a tartan bonnet
upon her flame red locks,
Around her waist she wore a kilt
For her no fancy frocks.
She puts fire in my veins,
I love her so, I do.
Oh my bonny, bonny lass
My heart I give to you.
I'll love you forever,
Aye, my lass I will
And should I live a thousand years,
I shall love you still.
across tree-lined yards
leaves dance in colorful frocks --
distant school bell chimes
through open windows
the scent of pumpkin spice drifts --
an orange moon rises
under charcoal skies
rain dampens mouldering leaves --
a lone snowflake falls

When you hear the annoying yaps of them pups.
Remember the gifts they bring as hunters.
Then lose the fear of hungering "cause of luck.
And temper from the whiffs of thier farters.
They act as Alarm clocks and not just for work.
Legally eat a burgler with a well earned meal.
Scares the Cats! an,allyway Frocks?!barely a bark!
Fiercely defencive kuckers!for a stroke and a feel.

7 year old skateboarder young boy with long braided Locs;
Overpowered by powerful frocks;
Skateboarding over wooden boxes;
fell hard, knees scarred;
Was impaled by a rusty nail;
Went to ER had a passionate nurse
She asked the boy which ouchy he wanted soothe first;
She was like penicillin she stuck a needle in his buttocks the, filled with a shot of tetanus?
Make Verdant Again The Hills
She walks the rack of bright frocks
as her husband, an Angus aging,
paws at the carpet behind her.
She wants the right dress
to make verdant again the hills
that summers ago
brought her young bull
into her valleys.
Now he needs prodding
even to graze.
Now she no longer
has to rope off
what he used to rip up.
Now he causes no pain.

We had never seen such a creature at Lake Shady
She was a cross between a fox and a lady
Built with all the curves of a human being too
But with fox eyes and wisdom, said observer Lou.
She is the utmost, the quintessential lady of the lake.
Will protect all of you beings, of that make no mistake
She is a princess, warrior, wise woman, a foxy-fox.
She looks wonderful too in her armor and dainty frocks.
Me and my friend, we had a tea party,
She poured a cup, our laughs rang out hearty,
Flowers in our hair and frills in our frocks,
Red blush on our cheeks and curls in our locks,
A big slice of the cake that mom had made,
We ate, shared our stories and drank and played,
We smiled big smiles, and had fun without rest,
On the whole, our tea party was the best.

Lilac ladies
you sleep inside your winter buds
of grey branches
that move
with April's gentle wind
wake up your sleepy folk
burst out of your winter beds
for Spring is upon us
and we wait for you in anticipation
to flaunt your fashion frocks
of lavender blue and angel pink
of virgin white and burgundy hue
upon the stage of a forthcoming May
waiting patiently in the wings
to herald a glorious summer..
A bright painted fawn she choose
Face aglow, roses lightening dawn
The reds, the yellows and the blues
On the bright painted fawn
All around the spirals and bon bon
Frilly frocks and bright red shoes
Streets lined with dew filled lawn
The carnival in all its hues
Eyes closed mind in a swoon
She laughed her pain, a perfect ruse
On the bright painted fawn

For Nette’s ‘Carousel in Roundel’ contest.
Uncontrollable frenzy the moment I set out for the wool market
Ecstatic madness losing the teeny heart to bagfuls of double knit
Every year newer hues and textures in my over loaded box beds do warmly fit
My soul flies to the heavens on their strings as I knit in love, purl out pain, crafting
Intricate cable patterns on cuddly baby frocks, scarves, stoles, capes, and afghans

What si friendship
Is it only hanging around
or cracking jockes
Is it laughing aloud
or wearing same frocks...
What is friendship
Is it sharing same food
or being forever...
Is it fighting whenever they could
or crying together
I dont know its meaning
But I have so me feelings
even if I show it
you dont believe it
I still pray to god
ti.l my tears are wiped
I want to know it hard
What is FRIENDSHIP...

In this college town
three girls of Spring are fresh bread
brown before the noon of May.
In pink and yellow frocks,
with hair unfurling in the breeze,
they laugh and glisten in the sun.
Good daughters all, they wave
to an old professor on a bench
waiting for the end of day.
He waves back and smiles his best,
knowing girls like these, once close,
now wander many miles away.
