A boy frolics on the river bank,
Splish, splash, plop, plop, plip!...

Shoppers walk to tunes;

Santa listens well....

Fanciful filigree faerie frolics
Garnishing grateful glittery gardenias
Heavenly hope heralding 
Iridescent illusions imagining 
joyous jumbled jubilation...

       Supping on this dish
       Now eyes my goldfish

Warning! Flimsy, fickle Heather 
Flips and frolics like wild weather, 
Her demeanour doesn’t last -
Storms in quick and blows up fast -
Hot and cold is fickle Heather.

Fireflies

Electric pizazz
Flickering winks of blue ghosts
Like magic with wings
Flits and frolics on warm air
Sets the solstice nights twinkling

orifice at fontanel glistens
mind wonders what’s going on
childlike heart takes delight
with each life breath reborn

staff of power stands erect
humming with potent power
innocence frolics with joy
bathing in the divine shower...

It was so a tree that I saw
It was too a branched man!
He let a ripple pass under him
And then his root ran.
Which I know is out of character
And a laugh beyond hysterics;
But is what is brought out in folk
At the Landslide Frolics....

fast spreading Hillside
a wild spotted big deer skips
enjoying himself
~
on green groomed Hillside
doe wild deer dances-lingers
in spite of the hunters

My hurt heart is soothed beneath
dewy, emerald 
canopies

where pebbly pathways wind
around a shaded fountain 
of peace.

A lotus pond meditates here.
A busy birdbath frolics 
there.

Ah, what soft, serene solace,
light as a feather my 
soul is!...

Hot days at the beach
sunshine on lavender skies
Frolics of childhood
Moments captured in golden
with colors, laughter and song

Soon thoughts come calling
with sand castle memories
in a dance with time
Peachy sun on gleaming sand
and determined turquoise waves...

Where
Blue sky
Meets vigor
Of azure lake,
Golden light frolics upon amber waves
While little girl sits, conversing with duck;
Endearingly
Whispering:
Feel my
Love.

man and woman, earlier boy and girl
take a walk in the park 
enlivened by the chirpy song of a lark
behold pure joy unfurl

childlike innocence frolics with delight
agendaless exuberance prevails
in the void, both lift soul’s sails
as they so embark on a wingless flight...

centred everywhere
potent force omnipresent 
surges forth ripping form apart
metaphorically speaking
yet real in as felt

divine union within
renews silent bliss ignition
spiritual heart comes into focus
rapture unbound frolics free
this is what we’re here for ...
