the creeping
overture.
t’s blasting
out windows
to the lawns.
Pepping up
an entire
neighborhood.

Tides enfold first light,
Golden hues seep through briny mist,
Daybreak murmurs rest,
Ebb and flow dance quietly,
Dawn's tender overture sung.

The poetess’s dance
in the rain lightens my heart
I hear her footsteps
echoing overture words
proposing matrimony.

On an odyssey trek,
overjoyed to find Zen,
oasis, green and lush,
overture of bird songs,
opalescent calm hues,
ornamental flowers,
otherworldly magic.

Melancholy melody of mania and madness.
Ceaseless Swan song a symphony of sadness.
Counter to composure comes cacophony of chorus.
Oscillating operatic overture of Opus.

Falling From Window Sill
Fire at Will who was an imbecile;
Tell us about overture fitting bill;
Music moron,
Soon was gone;
Trump broke neck falling from window sill.

Characteristics of Caricature
Never were quite certain or ever sure,
What became Characteristics of Caricature;
Not any joking;
Very provoking;
While we had to endure the overture.

This is MY 1812 Overture, count em 1812 lims
Stop me when you've had enough, I'm filled to the brim
Didn't plan this stuff
Flows out my butt
Tried plugging it, blasted out clear up to my chin

Written in ABC
Another butterfly, colors dappled, enters, flying gracefully heavenward. I just kneel,
looking, mesmerized. Natures overture plays quietly. Restless, suddenly thrusting upward,
variegated wings, exiting, youthfully zoom.

wintertime,
springtime,
summertime,
autumntime,
chilly, frosty, snowy wintertime an overture to springtime life, which
colours summertime, who in turn prepares autumntime for its fruits

Agony, bitter contempt.
Destruction, eternally forgotten.
Gasping, hindered instincts.
Just killing lilies.
Metallic needles overture perfected.
Quiet raindrops splash underneath.
Vulnerable wasteland.
X-chromosome, Y-chromosome, zero-defect!

listen
to the swaying leaf
she sings a song
tempestuous
and sway it deems
in overture
another life departed
. . . on
listen
now a voice of light
she sings a song
a nexus verse
in hand whose cup
within her palm
another life can come
. . . along

The quality of
The tape itself
May vary,
But the 1812 Overture
On an off-brand is better
Than ‘Mary had a little lamb’
On Maxell
The size of the rubber band
Is limiting
But six inches stretched to seven
Is wasted,
When four can be stretched to eleven
Quite well.

What grand overture preceeds death
When the past is prologue to life
What omnipotent power's breath
Gives life to our struggle and strife
Ask who will come to our defense
As we battle against the odds
What will sustain our common sense
When we're the folly of our gods

An overture to winter's frosty breath,
September oft colors my thoughts in gray
It signals winter's cold and summer's death,
Casting its somber spell on me this day
Like witches brew in ancient play Macbeth

When
The
Clock hands
Mark midnight
At the New Year Eve
Raise high your champagne flute and cheers
For the best and not so good moments lived in this year
Making an agreement with yourself of realizing the best efforts of progress

The old county faIr
Six times on the Ferris wheel
A three dog night
A sudden shower
Run for cover or shiver
Uncurled ringlets laugh
A tiny trophy
A water pistol winner
Clutched in sleeping hands
Our overture
A rumble of fireworks
Beneath a rainbow

RHAPSODY
With reverence to a reverie
No amount of words to alleviate
With deep longings of overture
Turning a rhapsody so complete
As in Iliad and Odyssey’s romance.
I’ll come to keep this tide
To seal this undying love
We will overcome
One slope, one narrow cove
At the sand dunes.
