A buried treasure

where once we sat and sunbathed

Lost to a watery grave...

One can't go up to the ladies
And say, "Let's go and make babies!"
When she's on the pill
He's over the hill
And drooling indicates rabies!...

Soothsayer indicates she should pull a card.
It is the Eight of Swords
Not a good one
Then she pulls the Tower
Worst card of all
not much to say...

Happy birthday, dear Antoneth, 
A critic leaves chilly remark, 
Then indicates in the same breath 
That the book will provide a spark.

Nature only gives
never demands return from
its users; while no
animals destroy nature,
but human solely ruin
natural richness
for personal gain, outcome 
indicates climate change.

Light pourinmg down from the sky 
Indicates to us 
That the dance of Maya
continues
Five weekdays 
Only two days to work 
The people are struggling 
But there is hope on the horizon 
Surely you know that 
"The Time For Change Has Come"!...

Merely indicates that there is a possibility,
Assuming the answer has room for sway.
Yes or no denotes there will be no flexibility.
Big decisions to be made; choices to weigh.
Either response will be given, come what may...

The couch grass has withered
for winters change
I make no apology
Milkwood so loftily summoned
As I venture forth
A prompt remainder
into the celestial wilderness
Time is running out
The lunar moon indicates
Even the sky can be shrouded
through the thin line...

This poet has most incorrectly checked 
The little box which indicates "insect." 
This poem, I therefore flatly reject. 
I sharply reproach the writer.  

A spider, never an insect, was. 
I say this insistently because, 
He should say "sorry."  Until he does,
I remain a concerned spider....

In my poetry I predict
I'm sure what I affirm simply
in abundant  pureness  flavor
  with strong whirlwind of love actions 
My poetry so rich of rhymes
as my  clear writing indicates
have all inspiration in faith
to promote peace is  my duty
poetry is loving  junction...

juicy and fine
red and round
a bit of water in its stem well

the teacher expresses appreciation
the child is thrilled
the fruit sits on the desk with pride

the leaf indicates a fresh pick
Not from a store
They ruin the leaves

The teacher takes a bite
Curious and to compare
She is not disappointed...

The darkness extends
As the sun descends
To partial ellipse
And deep cold now grips
Penetrating core

Skeletal trees’
Dark silhouettes
Against pale sky
In waiting sleep

Burst of lights
Signal makes
Indicates

Old year
Comes to

End

Listen to poem:

As I look back,
Like a refrain,
Those remnants strewn...
--Of a completists remains,

On yonder floor,
Indicates, the unsung pages,
References, an unbalanced score,
Whose unfinished notes,

Relates to wine as it ages,
So harken the procrastinator,
Fortuitous this day,
That will fulfill,

Of what belonged...
--to yesterday....

Night sky entourage shining
intermittent singing, chiming.
Misty clouds are dancing by
the solitary moon up high.

Distant stars ebb and flow
players in a theatre show.
The moon and its soliloquy
shrouded clouded mystery.

Pantomime in fading glory
indicates its silent story
to distant planets audience
seems a time to reminisce....

Their is a problem when you need to wear a glove,
To enter inside a human being without any love,
It indicates a lack of trust of that persons health,
So why bother with something of no wealth?

I am a man and I enjoy the feel of real skin,
Not a rubber glove because I am doing it in sin,
I want the real goods and to feel it.
Not a plastic bag covering what I am within....

My eighteen yeared daughter
living and dreaming with Fetal Alcohol Syndrome,
As she grows up and out
hopes to become

"An old princess
with long purple hair
living in a GroupHome."

I'm not sure if this indicates
I did a shockingly good
or alarmingly bad
job as a thirteen-year dad
with positive therapeutic intent.

Until she smiles,
looks up at the blue-grey sky
with unimagined delight....

Mademoiselle is acting cryptic and vague 
By the harbor at Lorient.
With her white dress and parasol, 
Her gaze turned aside,
Looking pensive, aloof, 
Pretending she wants to be alone.
Feigning introspection; a delicate charade 
That only fools the foolish.
The carnation in her hat indicates 
A different motivation for her being there,
But mademoiselle is acting cryptic and vague 
By the harbor at Lorient....

Laying here
On my death bed
Just wanting
It to be done
And over with
Tubes going
Throughout my skin
That one little line
That indicates
If Im dead or alive
Keeps beeping
Little beats
That is getting
Stuck in my head
Im getting
So tired
I only start to hear
One flat line
I know what it means
And somehow
I feel so peaceful
That now
I can sleep
Without having to hear
That little beep
That indicates
Im alive...

Windowed doubt shadows out peripheral.
Fear balances envisioned in centripetal.
Autumn’s amber hark back hearken.
Forgotten kits cry down, mother marten.
Good fellow robin indicates emending sprite.
Spring expands secret eyes only sight.
Droplets of hope dew days new dawn.
Open arms stretch a point wide yawn.
Hope turns a blind eye in despite way of head,
And blossom into purple and to red.

Let the bastards talk
You'll overcome them
   When you keep your eyes 
  on the prize 
   Let the leaves fall 
where they will 
  Only those with foresight 
will be able to discern 
    what you
    are after 
The years come and go quickly 
    Let us gaze through 
the windmills of our minds
   Light streaming down 
              from the sky 
indicates 
that the coming generations 
will find joy and laughter 
greater than we have known...

The greatest mystery of world is life..                                                                                                                              Where we are, where we were, where we will be..

Nobody knows what life will bring for us..                                                 
Although we are waiting to see a rise of life..

The change of colors indicates the time of death..
Until we are wistful to see a future of life.....
