Midnight Road

Thoughts honking at me,
We're trapped in a traffic jam
Eager to reach home,
I let them pass me by on
The midnight road to nowhere

Outbound

'Tis near the end of year again

I saw honking geese in outbound skein,

Off, away to warmer climes

No lovers they, of wintertime.

Greedy Geese

Geese flock around a still green pond
jolting each other out of the way
honking loudly, wide wings flap
open beaks hungry
for a crumb of bread.

Premium Member Migration

Wind blows bitter cold,

The loud, honking geese fly south

     In chevron pattern.

Pointing to warmer climate.....

Their annual vacation.

the sun dips below
the world's edge while overhead
wild geese are flying.

wild geese are flying
west honking as the sun dips
below the world's edge.

WINTER WARNING 

early morn honking
city folk, surprised, look up
wild flock southward bound

through the morning fog
street lights cast an eerie glow
distant formation

Rush Hour

traffic is stop and go
horns honking like mad geese
windows down in the heat
choice words said in anger
social fingers signal
suddenly my lane clears
car

i heard the honking of late march geese
in awe a lump stuck in my throat

while sailing high across the sky
they cheered resounding cries of hope

Premium Member Road Rage

honking expletives 
an irate driver 
aggressively gestures 
at my patient attitude
and the gaggle of geese 
crossing in single file…

Electric Cells

Far distantly 
I hear a flock of geese 
honking in the wind
Smiling comes automatically
weather changing atmospherically
for another very first time
I feel what it is to be alive

Premium Member Geese with Moon on Their Wings

A tired man surveys his field
in the morning, still.
Honking alerts his senses, 
giving him a thrill.
Can you believe these...
wild geese...with moon on their wings
dropped him to his knees?

Heading South

The sky turned black, annual migration from the northern snow
                             In a perfect V, honking all the way
                   Canadian Geese, flying to the winter sun of Old Mexico

Premium Member Night Traffic

Night  traffic is 
streaming white lights
coming toward the car 
speeding away red
honking and puffing 
outpacing the horse 
and not tiring
the mad goose
faster than the one behind
never at the head of the line.

Why Archie Shepp Is God

honking and grunting from
the gutbucket of hell,
angry as a burning parrot,
crazy as ju-ju,mad as the third eye,
divine and terrible,beyond all sense
a tenor sax that spikes your heart...

you got it man, you got it....

Premium Member Geese with Moon on their Wings

geese fly in crystal blue skies. they move in V shape, soaring and gliding through air along the moonscape. with wind under wings, they seem lunar rays in flight. their loud honking rings.

Premium Member Shroud Of Dusk

Whilst the sun slowly sinks 
Beneath the snow-capped mountains 
Dark-rimmed clouds drift high above 
Red-orange skies shroud the sky 
V-shaped geese honking afar 
Darkness creeps on mirrored lakes 
Gold eyes wink as dusk sets in

Premium Member Geese Honking By

In the early morn
I hear the birds sing
Crows caking aloud
Dove's singing their songs 
Blue jays calling mates


This birds complaining 
Then the geese honking
Flying in the early dawn
Or in the early morn
Ponder where  they go

Premium Member signs of autumn

autumn's sky ablaze
shades of red orange and pink ~
sunset masterpiece 

geese in formation 
flying to warmer climates ~
honking their goodbyes

an arachnid's silk 
glistens with the morning dew ~
spider clings in wait

Premium Member My Big Old Honking Toe Nail

My big old honking pointed toenail came through my sock today.
Making me uncomfortable in lots of uninteresting ways.
It is truthfully worrying me a great deal too,
The next thing I know there will be a big old honking hole in the tip of my shoe!

Premium Member The Store Window Pane

The store window pane..

Reflecting the bustling traffic and

A backdrop of sky and tree allowing

It all as nothing appearing as lights and

Honking..and stops avoiding catastrophic

Interruptions of movements dedicated to

Sky and tree...

Premium Member The Symphony of Nature

The rhythm of a bird’s wing flapping,
The whine of a baby crying,
The melody of crickets chirping,
The gaggling of geese honking,
The rip-roaring of thunder drumming,
The pitter of rain pattering,
Are all symphonic sounds,
Of Mother Nature trumpeting.
