Short Jasper Poems

Wall is of Jasper
And the city is pure gold.
Like unto clear glass!...

in bare hands you tilt 
my earth to seek western skies
spirits set the sun
bare feet chase red jasper realms
from black-onyx sky

jet black raven
ruby red
marble eyes
with
speckles of
jasper green
and
cadet blue
plumage
perched
on
top of
a sycamore tree
near
the
ghost grave
while
speaking in tongues
along
the 
wicked way...

Jade and jasper he’d give –
just let his daughter live!
Jephthah, now cursed, once blest,
jauntily claimed in jest,
jabbing thumb to proud chest,
“Justice? Lord, do Thy worst!”
Judith left the house first.

                                    Harvest past, spring flowers bloom
                                            Pearl gates, jasper waits

The alcea or hollyhock
Waltzers by with a schmaltzy walk
Jasper color facets her stock
Cashet and lock , cashet and lock

Balkers do not alcea breathe, 
Masher gives her a sweet reprieve 
Upside down petticoats believe
She’s wild and free, she’s wild and free

Jasper Johns saw the number eight,
And he was illuminated,
Then he started to speculate:
A lonely number should be mated,
I need something with more weight,
And the obvious he deliberated:
Paint with numbers my good man,
I’ll draw them from the colours in my can!

Back where it all started this life
There were a lot of bright colours
Deciding to take our time upon this
Poe; to do a Michelangelo: jasper's muse
As I'm going a bit too fast ? We'll turn it into a love fest....
Breaking away from vertigoville; mania valley's terse twister, thrills....

The red kings,
And the black kings,
And the kings of garnet and jasper,
Lie silently behind plexiglass
While the population
Is petrified.
Yet the red kings,
And the black kings,
And the kings of garnet-jasper,
Are only strange marionette kings
That the population themselves
Have created....

Jaspers are a gifted lot; 
they mimic many things.  
From poppies to a leopard’s spots, 
their pictures really sing.  

It weighs much less than many stones; 
in it you’ll see colored fissures, 
holding abstract stories, all homegrown;
such lovely artsy mixtures.

The taste of the jasper petals
Laid a breast the landscape
Sweet vapor mist gently kiss
a forest surround sound
the rocks side like metals
Trees dancing in the wind scape
Flowers smells grips the air filled bliss
Pictured flowers

mottled green, orange
black jasper multicolored 
unique color born

Robes of gold and purple
Flecked with a scarlet thread
Poemgranate,gold bells around the hem
Epaulets of onxy,engraved upon each gem.

Jacinth,agate beryl,amethyst
Jasper,diamond and sapphire,
Bedeck this fine attire...
Of a holy priesthood,dressed to serve the king.

With Jasper eyes and crimson lips
Her heart as a receptive stone
Soothing, calming and magnetic
With wisdom direct from mysticism

Her tongue vibrates my soul with sound
Teasing and tickling my heart with love
With Long black moonstone hair 
Mesmerizing eyes with just a look
 
Spellbound I have become

     Have
     A nice
     Peaceful day
     Picnic with friends
     Yeah


     Eat
     Noodle
     Jasper made,
     Only for you
     Yum

Take your glorious beauty,

your handsome 
perfect body.
Take your precious stones:
Your sardius, topaz, and diamond,
your beryl, onyx, and jasper,
your sapphire, turquoise, and emerald full of gold.
Take it all!

Don’t be so vainglorious 

as you kiss yourself 
like a drooling whore.
God loves his son
who is 
not you.

You are more than just a kitten to me.
You are a member of my family.

Today I know you were not you,
What  was wrong I had no clue!

I made a rush to the vet.
For I was not ready to let you go yet.

I let you lay upon my chest,
For that was your favorite place to rest.

The vet said the we were too late,
So now Jasper you are at Heavens gate.

White sand cascades in a wee washed-up jelly jar.
Shiny on its side, stepwise tumbling as a child turns it.
Boy’s curious mind reveals a tiger’s eye, rhodonite,
Snowflake obsidian, red jasper and quartz midst sand.
In reverse play, stones look like sleds on a snowy slope.
Slow reveal of each prize mesmerizing and calming.

The price of wisdom is beyond rubies
Coral and jasper are not worthy of mention
It cannot be bought with the finest gold
Nor can its price be weighed out in silver	
There is a mine for silver
And a place where gold is refined
But wisdom is found in fearing the Lord
And to shun evil is understanding
For the LORD gives wisdom
From his mouth come knowledge and understanding

Haywire ghetto, lingering corpses, malingering sunshine,
Malignant malediction, staccato with disseminating stench,
Portending: ichor, insipid blood and wenches.

Juxtaposition of aphotic with aphotic; incognizant iniquity.

Noxious oxygen, attenuated jasper, jejune jardiniere:
Zion.

Smoke: implicative cornice,
Sherry or vitriol?
Ours, a world, that feigns polo in alcohol!!

Rising
Georgia
The rain is falling all 
around the Jasper pine. 
What a fine sight to see Watch 
it take all the pain away.

Can you see the sign? 
Look to see a rainbow 
of many colors in the sky.

If you look a little
closer to the couds you
might see jasper between 
the trees of crystal leaves.

So when you are a rising in the 
early morning light please don't 
forget to look for the sign....

You are locked in my heart
The combination to open it
Is two but without you
The combination is lost

To keep you safe
I will hide you in my soul
Locked forever
Never to be lost or stolen

I will place you in my heart 
As if you were gold
Next to your diamond eyes
Placing your ruby lips next to mine

Your jasper eyes will see
Those pearls of love
Wrapped around my heart
Holding it tight forever...

Howlight was Ruby when Jasper lifted to hug her tight
In the amber sunset of the coming night
but then came a sky of sapphire that evening
Where the moonstone above began beaming
Stars shined like diamonds not quite in the dark
They decided to kiss in the green fields in Peridiot Park
Their love aura glowed all around them like an ammolight
Letting the world know that this was more than a semi precious sight...

We unveiled her as the juniper tree
bowed down low to the ground 
From the balcony, kids threw cranberries
which got stuck in her apple sprig crown
A humming bird swept past her shoulder
and graced her with jasper and jade
The elm tree showed her his virtue
as she quivered under his shade
And in the evening we peeled the rind
right off of the luscious moon
to slather her thick and gracious
on the headstone of her tomb....
