Raw moon
Lips swoon

Rooms locked
Shirts dropped

Flesh beams
Love steams

A frigid morning snowstorm
embraces its many guests,
a white veil at this wedding,
reluctant bridegroom.

Either Flying Or Traveling

We were going to fly on a plane,
But instead used our bright brain;
Ober countryside,
Went for a ride;
See great sites traveling on a train.

I once met a man who claimed he was sober 
At a beer drinking party, late October 
He was as drunk as a skunk 
He fell down and yelled- Ca 'plunk! 
Thought it best I called him an Ober...

Cold and chilly atmosphere
Grips the earth and Humankind

Like freshly laundered bed sheet,
nature spreads a white silken
gleaming, sparkling, eye blinding
cool earth coveralls.

Snow Joke - dodoitsu


Demon clouds ride icy winds,
cold unfeeling harbingers,
blowing dead the flames of warmth’s
wingless snow angels.

Winter Snow

Sleek ermine boas draping
the naked arms of nature
bare of their green velvet capes...
snow falling, settling.

Winter - Cold at heart 






Subtle warm weaves of passion
Kneaded to beat winter chills,
Tear to shreds with cruel time
Icy winds cold blood.

Soft scintillating snowflakes
dress the naked tree branches
with a white wintery wrap
until spring arrives

(wintery can be spelled 2 ways - this version is three syllables)

Winter's Aftermath


Soft snowy scapes sizzle sheets
           Romance bubbles in warm arms
                  Snoozing, Snuggling and kissing
                                         Brrr! Baby boom blasts!

There is a man who goes to sleep driving
His family has a plot conniving 
      They would buy him a tank
       That is so dark and dank
He could sleep while others were surviving

Like smoke from Grandpa's old cigars,
I watch a swell of gleaming stars
drift in waves of brilliant dust
like crumbs from smoldering crust.
I wonder where they might lead,
which starving soul they might feed.
Like smoke from Grandpa's old cigars,
I watch a swell of gleaming stars.
