Peaches, nothing fancy
          in a sweet fruit salad,
                    to drink, likely, iced tea.

Life is like fruit salad
It bring together a variety 
Of flavors and textures
Making each bite unique
It’s all about taste buds
Balance and contrast
Sweet, tart, crunchy, and juicy....

My darling Clementine
Thought you were a satsuma
Or maybe mandarin
Did not mean to presume a
Variety, you cutie
Ambrosia made with halos
By whatever name you go
You orange little beauty...

apples grapes peaches on tray
silky rinds explode 
flesh blended with milky cream
nectar squirting juice,
add cherry toppings
toothy- fruit

With a pull of the arm
the eyes started to roll
Sweat poured from the pits
as if nothing at all.
Tears smudged the rims
from the pull, roll, and ring
When the fruit salad face
Showed a lop-sided grin....

pricot and plums;
are they served in fruit salad;
citrus to me so
~
melon-choly bowl;
filled with collar turnip green;
fruit cocktail salad;
~
urban session dreads;
drenched in hot sauce Red Devil;
 ranch dressing salad?

SUMMER COOKING

                          Minimum labor.
                Chicken soup with fish finger,
                    fruit salad, ice cream
                and chilled caramel pudding
                to cool down body and mind.

Molder of mega minds
Tracker of tiny time
I write mountaintops
To read the bottom line

Storm catacomb castles
Swarm like Hollywood hustle
Transform fat into mighty muscle
Warm and happy
With an afternoon apple

Fruit salad ballads
Round about rapids
Cool off in a bath of acid
Knock the voices out of my head
Using a rubber mallet...

If I could just taste the shallows of your forbidden fruit;
Like a woolen sweater you warm me my chest and heart;
Ooh, part of mine fruit salad, and you are my dessert;
Your essence such a vital resource you're more than just a taste;
You're part of my breath that I must ingest to live this life;

Bagels and baguettes
Bap or fried bake,
The fruits of the flour
are easy to make

Chollah, chapatti, 
Cinnamon bun.
These global delights,
make eating such fun.

Filled with Caribbean sweet meat
like Guava jam,
Scottish smoked salmon; 
Or Danish roast ham.

Add a fresh fruit salad,
Some sparkling wine,
A candle, red roses and  
you’re ready to dine.

changes

summer days shiver
 shadows ride the rising mists ~
  orange red moon rise

long days grow shorter
 wisps of afternoon linger ~
  remnants of summer

lazy fall mellows
 sleepy sunbeams stretch their legs ~
  pumpkins glow amber

red apples ripen
 golden pears grow large and sweet ~
  boughs of fruit salad

twilight comes early
 scarlet seeps into green leaves ~
  autumn breath chills nights...

More of My Many 
Mellifluous Poems

even though may be brief
had been short sigh of relief
from sadness and grief

all over and done
guilty they had found the one
punishment upon

to court would embarge
what he received was a large
sentence based on charge

had started to search
for great and glorious church
with trees oak and birch

God gave me a job
much fruit salad with corn cob
became a fat slob...

Halloween horror

Sally hides sweet candy under table
(Since sweet candy makes teeth decay)


Mummy angry...
Finds trick treat candy boxes empty
Jelly beans, fruit salad, black jacks  - whole stash eaten!

Sally looks awful..
Tummy aches
Sally spews vomit
Nasty vomit shows candy


Daddy cross 
Mummy livid...
Early night Sally!
Sulky Sally cries

Grapes on the Mountainside from trees and Vines;
Loose apples in the summertime some of the trees;
Some falling from sky to the ground; 
Yummy;
Lettuce mix-up chopped up fruits  in kind;
Florida oranges plump juicy Sunkist;
Cool raw cut
Promenade cool refreshed refrigerated fruit salad;
Gavitating sweet mixed juicy fruit falling down our palate;
