strikes a nesting  gull

to a human marking

single gull struts sand

outcast from the feathered flock --

Lone Gull

A bit of paper
           blown high
Lone gull    in an empty sky

Listen closely
           hear it cry
Ten thousand others    close by

In Love

When she fell in love,
All the world for her was dull,
His path she would gove,
Her heart throbbing like a gull,
Thinking 'bout him was her lull.

Any Way the Wind Blows

is it better to sh*t amongst the pigeons ~ or poop amidst the doves 

cries a chick gull to its mother ~ god does not build in straight lines above

Lighthouse Scene

Near lonely lighthouse, a gull swoops down
   to kiss the waves, then veer around
Back up skyward, pumping wings
   ~ gliding swiftly, homeward bound

Trump Had a Pet Gull

Trump Had Pet Gull

Trump's best friend  was a pet gull,
Who like him did become very dull,
Self adoring;
Very  boring;
No feelings in brain and numbskull.

The Mending of the Heart

I saw two foxes run through a hole
And my sorrow was weakened still.
I watched two lovers swim through a gull

And the air took my breathe into the sky
Like a frightened lullaby.

Stranglehold

There once was a frog from Quebec Who was treated with such disrespect A gull took him for lunch But he dished the first punch And choked the bird by the neck

Black and White Bay

Small lynx.
Inky onyx on
white and grey.

Maniac gibber
at gull and crow,
cursing through

the pane.

Blood and muscle
shot through green
keen,eye.

"Just wait.Just wait..."

He seems to say.

Observations

After breakfast, colorful dawn, everyflying gull happy in journey.
Knowledge luminates migration, Neptune's ocean pervails.
Quavering, raging, sparkling, thunderous, unquiet,
Visualizing waves.
XII younder zodiacs above.

Message of the Gull

Tangled in hooks and fishing line
the fisheries have thinned
waves coated in mercury.
The flotilla moved inland
away from mercury storms, 
from freedom flyers to beggars 
on an asphalt sea
screaming
fries- fries- fries!

Ocean

I sit on a rock
Looking faraway
Where the ocean meets the sky
Forming a huge circle

I hear 
The sand gently
Lapped by waves

A gull flies by
Glancing at me with a smile
Seeming to say
Isn’t ocean vast and beautiful?

Catch of the Day

White gull in canyon of high boiling mist
Soaring to catch in a moment not missed
The feeling of freedom expressed with this pen
Indelibly certainly caught once again
Soaring forever and free
In soul sight of  readers and me

Gull Puppets

puppeteer of the clouds
working a spray of gulls
one pecks away the strings
all the others do the same
stigmata daub their wings 
they plummet to the sea
souls draped in white lace
haunting the tips of waves
luna offers a slice of peace

Horn Confusing Haiku

here is what God sent
should always pray and repent
what dream may have meant

should hear sea gull screech
waves have been beating on beach
Trump have to impeach

will write horn haiku
was great and one of the few
poem on grew and grew

Ophelia's Mirage

Mad driven solitude--

the river of time
crashes over
like a waterfall to 
the bottom...

of my soul.

I glide like the gull,
drifting in and out of 
the cool mist
rising.

When I
seen Ophelia's mirage I 
dove 
toward the water...

Lights of Atlantis






                    Lights of Atlantis 


                 brightest evening star,
                 flirts with no shame to the sea, 
                 sea gull winks at me.

The Pursuit

The pursuit


Three blackbirds
Are chasing a young seagull
In circles, they fly
Until the gull
Find an opening
It flies
Toward the ocean.
The blackbirds
Cannot 
Following the gull
There.
They return
Sit in a tree
And squawks 
Among
Themselves

Transcendence

Crests of teal waves
burst upon the ocean's swell.
An Oreo Seagull lifts, soars.

The wings of the Sea-
gull hover and sway, as he cries.
The high surf pounds, roars.

The sky cascades sun-
light through the sea spray-
lemon drops.
