Premium Member Bunny Frenzy

bunnies in the field
red and yellow butterflies
hued floral frenzy

bunnies in flowers
with a hop skip and a jump
wind's at the window

colorful bunnies 
frolic golden afternoon
under topaz skies

Dance of the Vulture

Featherbacks sliding through the air
trailing on the wind,
waiting for that carrion scent
to adorn their nostrils
pulling them to the feeding
    hop, skip, jump
tear a piece of flesh
flutter back and scarf it down.

There Is Always An Answer

Am I too old to spread my wings?
Not at all came the answer with a sigh,
If you can't hop, skip and jump,
Simply use your eyes... said something
Within...
You can't get started, unless,
You begin!

Greater Self Awareness

it´s only 
a hop, skip, 
and a jump  
away from 
a greater state of
self awareness 
which leads to
self betterment 
which causes 
a peace of mind
that once was 
non existent 
within the self 
that is now growing 
ever stronger within 
the present version 
of reality

Premium Member September Noon

There is subdued talk in the lowlight rooms
And outside the skies wear a dove grey bloom,
The wintry light seems brittle edged
To the suns brief course, the day is sped.
Gold and green leaves on their branches whip
Robins fly and land with a quick hop skip,
Then clouds are parted
A shaft of light comes through,,
As before night falls; bids us the sun adieu.

Premium Member The Umbrella


A useless piece of paraphernalia Is definitely the umbrella It only keeps us dry from the neck up Not too brilliant there fella I suppose there are people out there Think it's the cat's meow Hop skip and a jump down life's lanes Doesn't look too highbrow Must be more common in rainy regions Closer to the equater Parts of the world rains are common Umbellas were created

love blossomed
            suddenly
the evening
    we met by chance 
             in the 'excuse me' dance.

dance was the craze
          hop skip    jive trip
a  hip-hop
twirl  forward jump &
                           stop

then  boogie &
swing


     her eyes
           with a 
demure look
   I read
      this open book
come hither glance

with a song
became
        a lifetime romance

Pidgeon Foot

He hops & skips at my feet.

Searching tarmac for discarded worms.
One foot, one stump.

Reviled by most who walk past unseeing.
I drop a crumb.

Giving him only more reason to pursue his urban dream.
Silly city pidgeon.

Little pidgeon you dont belong in the city.
I have fed not you but a misguided pursuit.

Send your chicks to the country.
Where they will hop & skip in joy not deformity.

He hops & skips at my feet. I blink and walk on.

Premium Member Youth

Hop, skip
Dive and dip,
Here I go to and fro
Hurry mom you're way to slow.

I picked this flower
For you today
But then the wind
Blew the fuzz away.

I made my bed
And ate my peas,
Can I now have
My candy Please?

The cat is fed
The dog wants out
Can we throw
The ball about?

I love you, mom
I love you, dad
My teeth are brushed
My prayers are said.

Tuck me in 
Turn out the light
I love you both
Goodnight, goodnight.
