my eyes-
sounds of fall,

pilfering raccoons
raiding cornfields and orchards
laughing at farmers
Indian summer picnicking
Last hurrah before winter...

Hurrah or hooray
Does it matter
How you say,
Or spell the words
On that happy day
When we hear
The dreadful virus
Has gone away...

The drum drummed
The  guitar strummed
The trombone oom pah pah'd
The audience clapped 
Because they were rapt
And some called out Hurrah...

my eyes
sun shines on my face
summer's  last hurrah

Wickety, wackety, zis-boom-bah
The world's a treasure with minor flaws
Joy by the bucket
And still more yet
Ain't done until my last hurrah...

Mother Nature creating a hypnotic ballet
Worthy of awe
A great hurrah
More exciting than a play on Broadway...

To show I could
Now to prove

Mortality



Morning snowfall brings his
Moist eyes one last hurrah.
Moon-flowers and blue jays,
Meandering in step.
Malignancy strides moan
Meekest as his saviors
Mourn before it all melts.

snowfall in the dell-
             spring blossom dies

sunshine on my face-
           summer's last hurrah

the tangle of Autumn-
           bonfired into smoke

candlemas evensong-
                winter's requiem...

Saw a stage play of the WIZARD OF OZ
At our local theatre, didn't expect it, I was in awe
Extremely well done
So enjoyable and fun
My hat is off to these performers and a big hurrah

beware  the distant traveller,
who loves and leaves the scars,
the bloody mind un-raveller,
who is off to charm the stars,
until her deeds are done:}
she sparkles like the sun,
her ghost is gone hurrah....:}  Don...
