Stray
one gangly gray strand
weed killer plucks his curt brows
— manicured lawn

Skinny Minnie
Minnie, a tall, skinny girl
chose to give track a whirl
she ran so fast
but finished last
gangly legs failed to unfurl...

Unnerved
UNNERVED
a fresh grave, gravelly dug,
collar gathered and put upon.
the doghouse, below the gloam,
godforsaken with a gaping hole.
guard of gray-glass, at midnight,
hardly hinders gathering ghosts.
unnerved fear grips my sleep,
gangly bedroom curtain grieves.

Seasons of Change
Swift stirring spring
Brilliant blooming buds
Soaring soothing sun
Fiercely falling floods
Soft soothing summer
Warm wandering waves
Sunny salty seaside
Careless conscious craves
Alluring active autumn
Lovely looking leaves
Dimmer days develop
Gangly grass grieves
Whirling winter wind
Bitter bulky breath
Softly sailing snowflakes
Daintily dwindling death...

The Greatest Green
The Godly green grass grows gently as it greets the great giant garden...
The green giant garden generously gives gifts of gazing glimpses glistening...
The green goblin guilty gawking garnishes the gamma rays...
The green geometrical leaves gather gangly galore...
The glittering glossy green gem glows glamorously...
The green gabardine greets her gorgeous gentlemen...
Goodbye Green...

Lance-Lot
Lance-Lot
by Michael R. Burch
Preposterous bird!
Inelegant! Absurd!
Until the great & mighty heron
brandishes his fearsome sword.

Couplet
no one wanted me either
no one wanted this unusual canary
I related totally
no one wanted me either
I will take that one, I told the shop keeper
That one!
He was incredulous.
I said that one, I said, nodding.
The tall gawky weird-looking one?
I glared at the guy, who popped him into a sack.
Everyone at my house laughed at me.
As usual
Called me names, as usual
the gangly awkward canary and I became close
understanding what it feels like
when you are rejected by those you want to love the most...

Memory Maker
Tear me off a piece of truth
from gangly memories of your youth
to show me solidarity
and snap my cheeks in crimson
Take me on a silver ride
with muscled horses in their stride
absorb the impact of their feet
and glisten me with snow
Lift the veil from off my eyes
and wonder me with sweet surprise
a pocket full of candy cash
to spend in revelry
Break the silence of your past
and sweep the shadows, haunted, cast
to whisk the future in it's ebb
to hold my hand forever......
