Short Nightlong Poems

Short black pants with straggling hair
Holding a glass of beer
Laugh loudly, wrist with grasping 

Squiring and dancing nightlong

Acid house echoed all over 
White shirt foxed a red lips mark
Push desire until maximum peak

Blind choice makes you die...

Crossing the arms nearby
The little fire of your smile
Shivering in the winter gray
Wintry wind moves away 

Your little fire of affection
Lights new cordial connection
Warms me in cool nightlong
Lulls with a love theme song

Little fire lights up my heart
Thru deep cool, life restarts
Your smile endues my energy
Reveals a dream to the reality...

The night has drawn
My eyes are like the wilted roses 
They have lost their beauty 
And crispy appeal
But my mission 
I feel 
Is strong 
So all nightlong 
Where my light shall carry 
My pen will quiver 
And try to deliver 
A line or two 
For you 
In hopes you shall find 
My words envelope your mind 
With the glory the rose once held 
And I shall not rest, till my eyes are swelled...

I see no more dancing, I hear no more songs,
The neighbors are now quiet and the lights are all gone.
There are no soul in the streets, no sound nightlong,
Now that dullness begins to set in, I guess happiness is gone.

I thought that spring is no more,
But oh! I guess I was wrong.
I brightly smile as someone knocks on my door,
A new beginning is waiting, it was just dark before dawn.

I have died
And been reborn
As an old man
Please give me your hand -
Hold tight and don’t fight
I wish to dance all night 

I wish to dance 
All nightlong
Stay with me to the end
But move slowly
Not to shake these old bones -
Too sore for too much more

I have died and been reborn
As an old man 
Let me stand-alone- by myself
For a while
Do not hold me up
I wish to dance alone once more

To the end of the score...

Limericks croises : Once a Boxer met Poodle on leash

Once Monsieur walked Poodle in broad street
Madame laid up after nightlong feat
Poodle tripped in full glee
In Paris rue carefree
Monsieur took note of neighbours who cheat
 
Saw Mademoiselle walk Boxer on leash
Boxer lick-jumped Poodle with relish
Monsieur’s leash entangled
Mademoiselle’s hose bungled
Rush hour traffic stopped to let dogs enmesh/unleash.
