Changeable Skies

Swirls of ragged trees
In wisp white softness of skies—
Curls of dark fingertips
Like gold glints of eyes.

Swirls in broiling smoke
And heat’s wild surmise.

Gnarls in sticks of grass
And brown leaves as winter dies.

Burls amid dark blue skies—
Swirls of alpha, omega
And all of life’s prize.

Gnirps, Syrups and Turnips

Gnirps, Syrups and Turnips

Guess what Gnirps are or is?

Two gnus had meet two gnirps
Had burps and tried many syrups
By time problem was final solved;
Eat no more gnirps they resolved;
Found success after eating turnips.

Jim Horn

Gnarrs and gnarls came up
for gnirps. Have you figured 
out gnirps are yet?

Listen to poem:
Age gnarls, weather beats skin to flaky dryness. 
Wrinkles and lines, furrows, knots and blotches
Twist and contort the skin of babies and youths
to a knurled, rough, compliant easy to grip surface.
The rough and worn acrimony of old age,
Despite the crabby, cantankerous snarls and grumbles,
Can be gripped, manipulated and convinced to comply and yield.
For now there is little else to lose, little else to try anew.
It is the gnarls of age that knurls the grip to yield.
