Short Medley Poems

Medley of color
Harmonious wind blending
Browning lobes bled dry...

Metamucil can be deadly
Can cause a bathroom medley
Reaching High “C”
Ships sink at sea
Sound causes traffic jams in NYC...

Fittingly one randomly playing piano as I prepare
For heading home: where I am playing my most dramatic medley.
Someday even my own misery will meet its ending....

Marry had a little black sheep
and three bags full of wool,
She shared with the master,
and shared with the dame,
but not with little boy blue
who blew his horn at the spider....

Paul met John twanging banjo, singing a medley
Awed at what he heard playing by The Quarrymen
Five became four struggling to reach a destiny
Boarding a plane on an eternal trip since then...

Nature delivered me

Across the yonder countryside

Within a medley of colour

Nature delivered me

Wafting along oblivious decrees

Rendered I am sanctified

Nature delivered me

Across the yonder countryside...

Montage of Autumn flows
Marked by minty trees ...lush!
Mauve-gold leaves whirl a dance
Melding shade for lovers -
Moonlight medley enthralls
Mood's magic brings spell on
Maple moments of Fall !

My uncle whose first name is Hedley
Does farts that are silent but deadly
Rancid food in his belly
Makes his farts really smelly
If distinct, then we'd hear a medley!

Quatrain #236:
WILD


Watch for the poise in wild and free,
Indulge fine voice that comes to be;
Live flair and choice as soul inspires,
Deed confronts noise in fine medley.

I love being rayon,
 So cool in tropic's heat,
 I dry fast when wet, wrinkle free!
 Audacious hues surprise,
 A medley for your eyes.
 Fabric soft as butterfly wings.

Our winter break at Safari West. 
Birds chirping in their nest.
The creek’s melodious medley
The smell and pitter-patter of the rain 
Goosebumps from the cold wind
Thick fog covering the tall pine
And ducks and ducklings swimming in a line...

Gorgeous colors come together, in a fantastic, impromptu dance,
Mingling with manifold others, in cascades of pure happenstance,
Encompassing a world of hues, like luxuriant gardens at a glance,
Or the magic of rainbow and of sunset, in zesty games of chance!...

wake up
time for meddling
meddling away the day
it's got a bad rap
 wake up
pray on demand
yelling goes over well
with a no no no never
yelling deserves the medal 
 dinner plate of medley would be just fine
side of baby corn's will come up later
deserves a medal...

Delicate dewdrops of spring
Powder the sweet meadow of life.
Passion of wild flowers,
Blossoms of tulips and daffodils,
Haze of violets and camomile,
Charms of the rosemary,
All surround the pale horizon.
A vision of fragrant petals,
The water of life,
A portrait of the soul....

The elegance of your proclamation,
Enchanting divinity of your tone.
Quaking and naïve, hidden by laughter.
My embrace belies my apprehension.

The distilled belief that you perspire
Is a pheromone that intimidates.
Gestures of your assertive intent
Arouses a medley of emotions....

Sonar clicks midnight crooner
Sound waves invisible medley 
Resonate throughout 
The mischievous ears 
Black silent strikes
food fare delights 
Mother Earths night 
songs can't escape 
Incendiary terror 
Opera dancing wisp
Bouncing back-and-forth
Life and death struggles 
bats out of hell...

The word butterflies
Flitting past the paper net 
Illusive to me

I open my heart
Showing them my thought flowers
Enticing them in

I catch every one
Feed them from my soul’s nectar
They fly now to you.

Open your heart wide
Give home to my butterflies
My love’s on their wings

my youth
the pathway
to my substance
the essence 
of the person
I have become 
the person
I am today
a medley of
qualities and flaws
dreams and ambitions
quirks and strengths
hurts and bruises
ties and bonds
past and present

The majesty of hot air balloons

Surpasses the soaring clouds above

Gliding through the air with ease

Like gentle hugs they succumb

Colours unmatched in their scope
 
East to west the sky is filled

With a spectacular medley of music

And moments of amazing spirit

Jack and Jill went up the hill
to eat the curds and whey,
then the isty bisty spider
came and sat down beside her
and Jill ran away.
Then Jack got nimble
and Jack got quick
and called all the kings horses and men,
then he sat in the corner
and blew his horn,
and saw the cow jump out of the corn....

World hushed in silence
          Birds unable to keep still…
             The chorus of dawn

                Melody of praise
     Chases the shroud of the night…
             Blessed hues of morn

           Dawn gives way to day
            The celebration of life…
               Is well under way

From where is it you came?
Gaily dashing hither to yon
Was it from the refreshing rain?
Coming with the breaking dawn
Your delightful bubbling dance
Over polished stones galore
Ransom’s place of chance
Searching there more and more
On the keys of nature’s song
The medley a ruisseau plays
Bubbling there all day long
Gracing our quiet days...

MOSAIC

montage of squares shapes and broken
pieces
medley of colors reflect their individual
hues
mixture of distinctive well defined to
ambiguity


mapping fragments the artist crafts His
design
malevolence carefully chipped away
flawlessly
magnanimous with grace creates His
masterpiece

A dinosaur lives in my street -
his garden is not very neat:
he thunders along,
and looks very strong,
and thinks all the neighbours are meat...

an egg cracks - -
a baby t-rex
peeks out

My dinosaur has smelly feet,
and so he puts them out of bed -
he eats so much his gas is vile
(I'd rather smell his feet instead).

for Line's Dinosaur contest...
