Digesting the Wooers

Like stomach acid
Your observant scrutiny
Digests every flaw;
While the weak wooers scurry
The patient one grows stronger

Dolphin

Swim as you are king
flying quickly in thick air
gliding slowly to the depths
all fish observant
silver knight fight your dragon
no fire...many jagged teeth

OWLS

Out n’ out predators, Observant with wide eyes, Ogre like, tear up prey. Oviparous they are. Ornithologist’s pets. Ousted as ill omen.

So many countries, scenery so different But people are the same no matter the observant Same basic folks With unique cloaks All act the same, whether ordinary or intelligent

Moving Target

Watching you but not moving, 
your eyes ping pong all around; 
Watching me from a distance, 
or am I the observant? 
In and out of clear focus
a crowd fading around you,
I feel myself the target.

Trump Wants Us To Be Subservient

Trump Wants Us To Be Subservient

What we did find after being observant,
He had wanted us all to be subservient;
Better Beware;
Is everywhere,
And big display of idiocy was his intent.

Possibly Not Observant At All

Pink rose of Sharon blossoms
Look like a field of hollyhocks surrounded by verdant green
Weird how long it took me to notice this
I am not as observant as I thought I was
Possibly not observant in any way at all.

Observing a Monster

His head is monstrous said the withered hag with a bit of awe.
I did not know who she meant, until I turned and saw….
A colorful creature dressed like the Mardi Gras
You are right I said to my observant mother, Maw.

Watch Out For the Bus Gus

Watch out for the bus, Gus.

Attention all drivers of a bus,
We have important safety matters to discuss.

This week watch out for those on foot,
They can not be overlooked.

Stay observant and alert,
And no one will get hurt.

Hanging Up the Wash

Every day she seemed to be the only one
using the clothes line in Mt. Druthers.
Maybe I am the only clean witch, she thought,
wondering about the others.
Other girls wash their clothes at night,
said Wizard Wayne, one of her observant brothers.

Untitled (30 July 2010)

You are an actor sometimes,
Playing a role you think you should play.
You know it really well by now.
You never forget the lines.
Perhaps I am just being observant of the human beast.
You do try so hard though...
Why is that?
I just can't seem to figure you out.

Owl

Today I think I`m an owl
Wandering in higher realms, 
Seeing earth and snow 
From top of dark green firs, 
My wings are so white, 
Wide spread despite the mud 
Down, I `m quiet observant, 
My mind is silver labyrinth –
Moon reflections in my eyes.
Owls are never alone.

Time Adrift

Lekeleke Gbamileke
The cries of children
Echo through the hall of time
To the ears of souls grown

A flutter of white wings
Below blue heavenly seas
Raise in observant ones
The romance of nostalgia

The past is past
Yet, a war rages in me,
The urge to scream
The name of the cattle egret

Albatross

Masterfully mounting ocean winds 
unperturbed by turbulence.
Vibrant in the charcoal skies, 
looming o'er cream tipped surf.
Hear his song a shrill sonnet, 
a beckon to those lost at sea.
He pilots only eyes observant,
a luminescent visual cue.
Ushering hapless tide swept souls
 
Into the lands embrace

Menthols and Midnights

I think it was because you noticed the things that weren’t very important.

My favorite movie, the brand of cigarettes I smoked.

You were observant

You made me feel as if the sun would rise again the next day, light would come, the warmth would spread across my face..

And that would be okay.

Life Is Like a Caterpillar

Intricate patterns hide beneath the surface
Waiting to be found by someone
Observant enough to see 
the beauty they can bring

Simple yet beautiful, 
They bring joy to all around,
And complete it once they are found 

The little lines lie listening for someone to look,
And suddenly they are found

Gratitude

GRATITUDE

I am thankful
accepting of the difficult
	i have learned
aware my actions
	speak louder than words
thoughtful of others' feelings
	i can cause pain
observant of fractures
	remarkable, when mended
thankful for family, friends	
	structure of my life
grateful

Confidence

Why do I always doubt my tales,
And get hung up on small details,
That probably no one will see,
That is except observant me?
I am of course my own worst critic,
And my opinion’s quite granitic.
Is my work really a mess?
Why do I always second guess?
I’d like to say in my defence,
I’m simply lacking confidence.

Unhurried Buffalo

unhurried buffalo sits in a corner of the prairie
watching things happen in slow intervals
hearing birds' tweets, cheeps, screeches and whistles
enjoying the sun warming his back,
recognizing nature's beauty in a soulful way
understanding the season and the climate
thanks to God's gift to him of many observant years

Molly and Dane

There once was an elf name of Molly
Who every day wore Christmas Holly
She whirled and she twirled
She danced and she swirled
This darling young elf name of Molly

An observant young elf name of Dane
Was in love with young Molly, insane.
When she was around,
His jokes knew no bounds
This totally in love elf named Dane

Description of the Black Woman


Different luminosities don't characterize her. She's 

A force to be reckoned with, Let's count the ways:

Brainy, Brilliant 

Loveable, Lover

Adept, Artful

Classy, Competent

Keen, Knowledgeable 

Whimsical, Witty 

Observant, Out of the World 

Magical, Mystic

Artistic, Always 

Noble, Nurturable
