Soaked in rinds of limes
with sugared rum in summer
sunburned lips smile....

The fluid existing around the foetus in 
the womb contains 
bacon fat, limes, and 
bat piss.

Oh that’s rhymes
In my poem
To make a great noem
I think shallow
And wait for tamallow....

War and Peace

Lemons’ lemonade
Human kindness changed our fate
Forged us Love from hate

Every day war crimes
Today no lemonade times
When life gives us limes...

When you slurp it through a straw
it cools down your throat
taste so good with the cherry's
the ice is shredded
there are two cherry's
a few limes 
mmmm........

I wondered what was all the fuss,
a new form of poetry thought to be tough,
poets shedding the limes,
using lemons this time,
afterwards looking quite like a sourpuss.

Fantasmal Walk back into line
limes and lemons keeping time
So like crisping bacon or drinking wine
Out of the box ...can you spare a dime?
Touch me with your lust devine
Hating you!...with each new rhyme...

flowers in a vase
plum colored near bowl of grapes
middle of the night

charming fruit basket
of apples peaches and limes
in shadows of time

corn carrots and beans
on a farm table waiting
in endless silence...

Funny the way it was then
Feisty teen who loved sweets
Fine icebox fruitcake served
Fruit quite different mixed
From citrus~lemons, limes
Flipped fruit flew from teen's lips
Fantasy taste was gone  ...

my fruit basket---

apples, bananas
fruit in my basket spring fresh
oranges, pears, dates

elderberry limes
lemons kiwifruit kumquats
honeydew melon

gooseberry grapes, figs
Marion berry, lychee
Basket ball for me

Five pounds heavier today than the week before.
Does that make sense?  Could I ask for more?
The same doctor’s scale both of the times? 
Am I hiding grapefruit?  Have I hidden limes?
Five pounds heavier from Tuesday since last Friday?
I am feeling a bit slovenly.  Not tidy....

spring kitchen, sunny
a bowl of lemons and limes
light trails yellow walls

cardinals in trees
violets on window sill
views of green garden

magnolia days
come waltz into spring beauty
silently, softly

ice blue skies above
and squirrel makes his mad dash
in red rose shadows...

Mirroring salted sweat of limes.
Dreadful long march creeped and galloped.
No home seek looms.
A half way of death.

Quadruped war for nothing.
Tremor feet seek a poplar silhouette.
Shaded shadow similar to angel's wing.
Rain, snow, wind, sunlight , eyes dropped.
Mom, our mansard roof missed us....

               Go squeeze
            lemons and limes,
          taste the torrential tart.
   Let your knees buckle beneath you,
                    swiftly.  
  Pucker your lips perfect the twist,
         the tangy 'Oh' fills you 
               nutrient rich 
                 straight 'C'....

Bloody, blonde hair.
Dirty, and thin.
My life is dispear.
I just can't win.
I live underground.
come out at night.
My personality's round.
No lemons just limes.
Sour and worthless.
No friends by my side.
No love in my heart.
My fear is alive!
My life isn't missed.
Cause killings my hobby.
But the truth is,
I'm just a zombie......

Oh, my sweet wife, tell me is it a crime
That I so humbly adore the juicy green lime?
They’re seductively tart and truly sublime
A taste of heaven when in their prime
Yes, I’d leave you for them anytime
They’ve been my scrumptious soulmates throughout time
I know not the reason, I know not the rhyme
I’m but a prisoner of love to my dear darling lime!

Lynnwood Windchest roads lying in a row.

She peddles the tea kettle.

Rhyming limes and lemon rinds.

Slipping shale skipping stones.

Silent sighs sail straight past your eyes.

Specifically speaking Pacific shipping.

Ralph elf ate all by himself.

Swans see seven seagulls swimming swiftly.

She throws, he rows.

Pathetic personal problems persist perfectly....

My pants have bananas, lemons and limes.
Great for bogeying next to the New York Times
Jazzy and fun they bring me notorious rhymes.
I sashay on down to the building of March of Dimes.

These pants are catchy, they make me smile.
I hop to Chicago, down her Magnificent Mile.
Being in a bad mood could take me quite a while.
These pants are as happy as Oz’s yellow brick tile....

Bananas

Here come the sailors of the Seventh Fleet
With their bananas ripe, ready to eat
The ladies, they like them firm
Musty one’s make them squirm
Why can’t liberty always be so sweet!

Limes

They’re green and round not yellow and curvy
Bruised or mushed never—topsy turvy!
Peeled back skin often slimy
Best citrus fresh and limey
Sailor lime-juicer’s sucked to cure scurvy...

Satan comes along one day.
Want some GOLD and much HAY.
Corruption grips the blood like lead.
More gold over bodies of the dead.
Lusts created by man's idle time.
Not knowing God, with many gins & limes.
Filling the heart with misery.
Soon your life is a bent over tree.
All the gold, filtered with crimes.
On, JUDGMENT DAY, away with the slime.

  Totally typical of you to doubt me so, no doubt
Yet, there were times when you helped me out
Pain and suffering doesn’t last a lifetime, my dear
I believe You will see me through, despite my fear
Corruption and chaos mix with strife horrendously
Appreciate what good life has to offer to you exceedingly
Lemons and limes are my favorite citrusy fruit juice nearly  ...

A strange experience though 
Engulfed it anyhow
 
Your silence: a midnight forest
Piercing arrows, gruesome at the best

All the faculties of head had dried up but
You watered such 
That it flooded

Good betrays in this world sometimes 
You are given but worst reward; grapes and limes

Oh! That muse of poetry 
Is it that you waited for
No! No to such inspiration
Such a cruel creation.

I ran to the gorgeously designed convertible
to see if it was wearing a wrap
“It is original paint,” the owner told me.
He was an artist, covered in paint.
I wanted to go for a ride
She was so beautiful in her fuchsias, yellows and limes.
“She is a delight,” I told him. “like a gorgeous painting.”
“Do you want a ride?” he asked me.
Boy, did I, but I said no.
Pretending to be normal for a change....

Pineapple pizza with pink pepperoni,
Buffalo wings and brown guacamole,
Little dead fishes in sour cream sauces,
Onions and garlic and greasy red sausage.

Cucumber sandwiches plastered with mustard,
Lemons and limes in a yucky green custard,
Fat happy chickens less all of their feathers,
Tomatoes, potatoes, my mother's hot peppers...

These are a few of my flavorless things!...

Truly loved him ever since he was young
That brown Collie is my sweet pet of mine
Lovely to look at when he shows his tongue
Don’t let him mad if he shows his rare fang.
Running nowhere in an old street line
He is there during my difficult times.
Doesn't talk but I feel his one great love
Our bond is as strong as these sweet chimes
Sweet as those most unforgettable limes,
My brown Collie is a gift from above!...
