I wanted to be a tiger
but I was a bunny
as a Gemini, godmother said
you are a chameleon
you can change from stripes to polka dots
I roared...

"What wish would you ask your fairy godmother?", asked I. 

"I would ask her to turn me into the cell phone in my mother's hand", a 6-year old's innocent reply....

Two musician cat friends flew away on a Mexican robin.
Their fiddles were playing, their heads were both bobb’n.
Their music was jazzy, they encouraged each other.
They are finally friends! Said their relieved godmother....

the gorgeous plant wished to be a bird
wanted to fly off and see the world
his fairy godmother granted the wish
he flew back often to visit his mother
she was glad for him but loved being a flower
and had no fairy godmother...

CHANGELING CLOUDS

Changeling cheered her doubts
Afeared mother of many clouds
Secretly placed by a wand’s haste
A godmother who’d offered to help

Griselda Blanco, “The Black Widow”,
Female Narcotráfico
Killed her husband through suspicion,
And so took out the competition.

Cocaine Godmother, “La Madrina”,
Infamous Queen-pin Latina,
Her means of death her own creation,
Motorcycle assassination...

Poor Cinderella was supposed to be transformed 
But her Fairy Godmother couldn't grant her wish, 
She broke her wand, when she sat upon it 
Now, she stomps around acting rather childish.

The poufy brocade gold trimmed snail dress was a bit much.
But to the bride’s faerie godmother, it was exactly the right touch.
She had designed it and wanted the princess to look her best.
The snail loving groom loved her dress, the very best test....

tiger lily was tired of being beautifully stagnant.
Bored, she was tired of standing on this hill, facing the sun.
Every year same oh, same oh.
Her faerie godmother came by. What do you need?
I need to bounce around, to see the world.
Poof! She became a beautiful ball!...

You'll make a fantastic girl,
So, slip on your converse slippers.
You'll have fun with a fairy
In the land of dreams galores.

Your charm is equal to a dress set on a whirl,
So, transform while afloat in aquatic spheres.
Though you soon forgotten your friend of a fairy,
You were born anew, so your soul finally soars....

Between want and desire
few crumbs of words
will not satisfy.

Facts and perception
build a latticed smile
between tears.

Discreetly life catches
a miasm, a fault
to commit suicide.

When will the exile end,
of hope, a holy womb?
The stink was rising.

Amnesty for amniotic fluid,
fetus was dead
Godmother was crying.

good-looking gorgeous gregarious godmother of mine 
guards graceful gracious grateful great-grandma so fine 
giddy girls giving genuine gumdrops, guiding GIs to Guinea,
Generating ghastly ghostly gibberish unheard by many, 
Gently germinating geometric gelatin a plenty.
Golden goggles glowing good-naturedly
I like these giddy girls who giggle wholesomely....

Her life has been progressively sad
Day to day stuff perpetually bad
Where is her fairy godmother we ask?

She bought glass slippers at the thrift store
Cannot keep pretending they fit any more
Where is her fairy godmother we ask?

Her prince is not coming. Dreams not for likes of she.
Angel masks depression, where can she be?
Where is her fairy godmother we ask?...

The older lady with the closed eyes flowed up through the elements
At first I did not recognize her, for who she was
But my soul did and said “Hey! Pay attention!”
She was my godmother, I had not seen her for decades.
Welcome to heaven, I said, taking her hand.
Without a sound, she acknowledged me in a grateful manner.
How did I not know her? 
I was surprised by this....

Jasper intimidates my friends
Terrifies my enemies
Of which there is only one
I feel protected now
He lets no one abuse me
I keep him close

It is not everyone who has a polar bear for a best friend
I feel fortunate and blessed
My faerie godmother loves me
She knew what she was doing when she sent Jasper
No one hurts me now
And my enemy runs screaming into the night...

CINDERELLA  CITY

St. Petersburg is lovelier than Paris as a city,
As anyone visiting  both cities will agree.
Like two fine women,  but one has more money, 
More friends to boast of her charm, make her plea. 

The other, poorer and in need of a dress,
Works hard, survives, and  is cheerful.
All she lacks is a godmother wonderful 
And Cinderella city becomes a Princess....

Someone's daughter
Someone's lover
Someone's sister to
Someone's brother
Someone's aunt and
Someone's niece
The list is endless
It doesn't cease
Someone's wife and
Someone's friend
Someone's mother
It still doesn't end
Someone's Godmother
Grandmother too
Among these people
Have you found you?
Nobody is nothing
Or no one you see
The someone in question
Is no one but me !...

her energy was going fast
there were too many have tos in her life
not enough get tos
I want to have joy, she told her mother

her mother was a sprite, a fairy godmother,
enthusiastic, the personification of joy
she said “throw out the have tos for at least one day.
Do not give them room in your brain or your heart.

Do what you want to do.
Nurture yourself
Pamper yourself'"
Great advice!...

I visited an empty house today
I found elephants with mirrors on its hide
And a dromedary with fluffy yarn 
That raggedy Anne wore for hair

I asked if I could have the records
She had given me one year when I had
Turned six years old and had a bunk bed 

And an electric ionizer next to 
A terrarium with a newt that
I cared about but did not understand
Why her life was as important as mine....

Comes the darkness on a graveyard, my lost child,

As winter’s tree bows from its iced arc, quivering

On last year's farewell of our young joy, of revelry;

Till arms drift … meeting your crystal star above.

HAIKU STRAINS 3


Nephews and niece
Day trip outing;
Keep fond company

~~~~~~~~~


Sunlight in rain
Confronts conflict;
YinYang movement

~~~~~~~~~


Old fruit tree
Tropical delight;
Mango outburst

~~~~~~~~~


Godmother charms
Sanguine compassion;
Stern love stays

~~~~~~~~~


Touch of beauty
Poesy sings;
Economic sway

Such a lazy man 
All he does, is sit around, 
Doesn't do his job 
Godmother does all the work, 
He sits around and complains 
About kids wanting wishes. 

Runs from the kitchen 
The commercials are over 
Sits on the sofa 
Nachos, pretzels, beer, he has 
He's looking for the remote 
Time to watch the football game.
