Starlings squabbling noise

crumbs of bread falling from beaks ~

gummy old man eats....

Dropped you down my underwear!

Couldn't keep one candy handy

Driving home I was feeling crummy

Popped a potent THC gummy

My head began to reel

I passed out at the wheel 

And woke up as a crash test dummy...

Gummy Santa’s adorning
My fruitcake and dates
Inside with candied cherries, 
raisins, walnuts and
Oranges, floating 
Fondant red,
Bliss!...

With Medicaid I got my dentures so bright
To pursue each and every culinary delight
Now with swagger I sway
But DOGE takes them away
Guess it's yogurt for dinner again tonight...

Sweet
Strawberry jam
Sticky gooey gummy
And warmed up it is the most yummy
Heaped up on toast is what I like the most
Baked up fresh in grandma’s oven
Delicious on ice cream
Strawberry jam
Sweet...

The shadow sulked in a puddle of drool,
Dribbling, it bawled out its eyes on a stool,
Hot chocolate with tears,
Starbursts and gummy bears,
It’s hard to devour sweets when you’re a ghoul.

Corona Virus..... oh shut up or shut down? 
We are all in the same crisis run-a-round. 

With or without Trump and Brexit it's the same ole' coffin.
There's no cure for the gormless boffin.

A toothless old man 
Smiled at me today,
His smile was gummy
And he had matted hair of grey
His clothes were torn and tattered 
All that be as it may
To me, all that mattered
Was the smile he gave to me
As he passed me on his way!...

Arabesques of reflecting rainbows journeyed out from the shadow mosques. Smells of burning and screaming hobbled amongst the crowd as I trod the earth upon my steel stallion, dreaming and living, lost between the echo of the gummy worlds....

bright teeth
smiling at me
and lighting up green eyes
in jack o’lantern candlelight.
the gummy insides of its pumpkin cheeks
along with its nutritious seeds scooped.
empty mindless shell speaks
with full moon eyes
bright teeth

(Senryus about crushes)

I'd never say to 
a guy "Oh, and by the way,
have a crush on you."

I'd never stalk my
crush on the Internet - that's
what our friends are for.

Never let a guy
treat you like licorice - you're
a red gummy bear....

What if summer lasted all year?
I would never have to go to school.
What if reading constantly made you popular?
I would be super cool.
What if sour gummy worms were good for you?
I would be their number one fan.
What if poems were wishes that actually came true?...

Oh little worm
You are so neat
You move so fast
Without any feet

You help the earth
Go round and round
You dig little tunnels
All through the ground

You’re used on boats
To catch big fish
And if you’re gummy…
You are deeeeelish!

Oh little worm
You are so neat
You are so useful
And can’t be beat!...

I want a piece of candy, 
 what's that you say?
Chewy, gooey, chocolate or gummy,
 any sweet temptation to inspire,
 fulfilling my inner tastebud desire.
Don't look at me that way, 
 a simple little tidbit would just be dandy,
really, 

I just want a piece of candy
 to take this sourness away....

My baby Bella
Those big blue eyes
That gummy smile
She flashes me when
I make a face
Those reddish blonde curls
framing her chubby baby face
She's so adorable
The only thing that keeps me sane, 
that keeps me alive,
is her laughter
15 years my junior,
but she's my best friend
I love you Bella Bean...

Shadow's Dark Apparel

My shadow wears
A slaw sunlight rain falls
cloak’s darkness
raincoat
His hair is like matted cotton
hair as natural as a desert bush
my shadow is a cotton field
being rain on moist sticky
gummy blooms bushy
pearl white as the clouds

Fury!
     Black striped and gold bands
  your ghost feet
     my shattered tongue

Oh love!
     What madness
  that fragrant flower!
     lungs as balloons with air

That Time divides:
  purple Pains &
  pink Pleasures

Koi
  carped the 5th
     the judge laughed
and gummy bears hate
     hungry lawyers.

I think I know what's wrong with me
Its not like am not feeling good

It's more like I have an issue 
The issue is Monday through Thursday

Because today is Friday and all I want to do is jumping jacks
It's like someone injected me with gummy bears

Am smiling from one world to another
Dimples with a rainbow party, ready to join the jolly train....

Gummy Worms

Everybody likes me.
Nobody hates me.
Because I share my worms –
Yummy, yummy gummy worms
Sour and sweet yummy worms
Sitting in my kitchen, sharing worms!

(SHOUT!)
Yummy, yummy gummy worms!

I’ll bet that you will never see
A follower of rules like me.

While others speed as lights turn red,
I’ll brake and sit and wait instead.

I will not sample grape or gummy;
Only paid food hits my tummy.

Never will I cut a line;
Like all wusses, I’ve no spine.

Chutzpah is a trait I lack;
Nervousness is more my knack.

Rules are made for fools like me,
A modern-day anomaly....
