Short Halter Poems

The smile

There was a bright man in white
Who rode on a horse so wild
Gazed a smile in might
Held the halter tight 
Then flew with an angel's kite

No Halter and Will Falter

An ego likes leading you to the altar
And may be big as rock of Gibraltar
She had forgotten to wear her halter
Then both of them started to falter.

The Birth of Pegasus

No, they really didn’t mean anything
by tying up a dancing, cavorting, prancing 
colt with a heavy halter -
 but God saw a use for spirit.

I feel sure no one saw them sprout,

just wings spread out over a garden, 
hovering.

A vision for useful dreams.

today 
I was much cheered by this 
I used to be able to throw a football pretty far 
Once played catch with a sexpot in a halter top 
And 
    with 
a Moslem 
Used to play touch football 
Used to live in Brooklyn, NY 
but no longer........

The three of us were all in shorts
that gorgeous day in June.
We had a little radio
To play our favorite tunes.

Rachel had her leather jacket,
me a halter top.
But Cheryl outdid both of us
with legs that went non-stop.

It’s been forty years since that snapshot,
since I saw those friends of mine.
But in my heart, it’s yesterday
for friendship transcends time....

Past life is immutable, we Cannot  alter
Resistance is futile, shAckles only halter
Each stRuggles to escape, their attempts will falter
Same with Plans of future, always inscrutablE
Empty of promise, enDlessly transmutable
Nothing certain, all predIcitions disputablE
Today Means life not death, thus irrefutable

The Blizzard falls on this chilled day

But with your love it all melts away

The wintry frost hovers in the air

But with your love I have no care

The cold does bite while your sould does grow

But with your love I have no care for the snow

The Ice hardens with its interval spell

But with your love I am conten t and well

The freezing rain does halter my destinys start

But with your love I am warm forever from your heart...

The wrath in a template is not always exact in proportion,
but derives a magnitude at source of vibration that echoes to alter
so none wear a halter and one must not falter when faced with the flame of adjustment.

Symbolic shaming stifling sicknesses. 
And a great weight removed through release.
Fire forms freeing.
And a multitude of iron ore sitting in a bowl is thankful
for the altering
path.

Response came from nowhere...

Replenish the Spring within our souls
Let dreams slumbered live in daylight
Happen upon us another chance
To find joy in dance when steps alight

Rejuvenate that which lives within
Give wings to olden feet that falter
Perchance for us another to share
Romance in true loves requisite halter

 
Allow the breeze to blow in favor
On heads sprinkled lovingly with snow
To swing in another’s warm embrace
Basking in the warmth of true loves glow...

I love to wear a turtleneck,
A boat neck or a cowl
But offer me a V-neck
And I guarantee a scowl.

A scoop’s a possibility
And I will sport a crew
Yet I cannot explain just why
A V-neck will not do.

A sweetheart neckline flatters
And a halter is ideal.
A square or off-the-shoulder,
If the mood hits, has appeal.

Whenever I go shopping, 
I know what feels right for me,
And that is why I’ll rarely wear
A neckline with a V....

Horses, hearty and hale,
Hither they hurry, hooves hitting the trail.
Hear their harmonious hum,
Heavy with history, homeward they come.

Heads held high, with haughty grace,
Hair flowing free, a flowing mane's embrace.
Harness and halter, a humbling hold,
Humble steeds, stories untold.

Hoofs beat a rhythm, a rhythmic refrain,
Horsepower and heart, a powerful strain.
Heroes of history, heroes of yore,
Horses, forever, we'll forever adore....

A red clock and the dwarf
will not meet on the wall.
Time slips out in virginal shyness.

On the verge of collapse was
an ossified civil group
after emotive conception fails.

Unambiguously an azure
sky measures the human steps
in somnambulant thoughts.

You throw a bound kid
in a water tank, after postpartum blues
and walk away with a halter.

Who will grab the fractured
age, during the fire dance?
A mirror lies flat after announcing the award.

WHEN I HAD ASKED HER WHERE SHE'D BEEN
SHE ANSWERED
AT A CONFERENCE FOR
KANUON HALTER
AT THE BOOTSINGER CONFERENCE HALL
I HAD TO DO SOME UNDERHIM WORK
WE PUT OUR NOSES TO THE GRINDSTONE

AND I HAVE TWENTY EIGHT MINUTE UNTIL
SWIGGEL COMES ON THE TELE
SO IF YOU WANT SOME
