Pear Shaped

“You're a woman who's shaped like a pear!”
Said a rival with an insolent stare.
     “It depends,” said a friend
     who was keen to defend,
“Just how you appreciate a pear!”

Premium Member Pear-Shaped

She queued for tickets at the ticket booth and paid in euros... Her tickets were pear-shaped for a film called "Pear". She came pear-shaped to the matinée. You knew I would say that, or maybe the booth man told you as she walked away... Her heels clicked on the crazy path and the man looked as long as dared. 9/13/2015

Blown Fuse
I won’t be parading to honour the dead. Something’s gone pear-shaped inside my head. All the guilt and confusion that have built through the years Have blown out the fuse in the space ’tween my ears. I don’t know the reason, can’t explain why it’s so. All the rest are parading, but me? I can’t go.

Diamonds

Diamonds 
are her best friend
said the girl
so many facets
for to sparkle
twinkle 
glimmer
and unfurl
Diamonds 
can be square shaped
pear shaped
even round shaped
all Diamonds 
are this girl's best friend

    I acknowledge my exotic beauty (blushing)
    and oozes with bygone history
    all the way back to Jeriko
    An ancient symbol of lack of faith
    Taste my sweet pear-shaped fruits
    Cheese and my red-blue figs, tastes dandy
    I thrive best in warm latitudes
    Sun and heat don't worry me
    just bring me some water occasionally
    Deep inside the fruit, I have hidden my flower

Ripples

I have a tap that drips

Drop after languid drop, they slowly form, pear-shaped pearls

Reflecting light, rainbows, a fluid diamond

Then gravity, they fall, only to explode to a myriad of ripples

Liquid slivers that pour, jump and settle

Breaking the surface, spreading, traveling

They reach an edge, come softly back

Momentum lost

Until they vanish beneath the returned calm surface

It's The Pit(s)

An avocado is not a vegetable, botanically, it's classified as a fruit, specifically, a large single-seeded berry, although it's a fact you may wish to dispute, your opinion is neither here nor there as, take it or leave it, it's what's known as a 'pear'. And yet, should everything go pear-shaped, don't blame the avo, it's not at fault, for, whichever way you slice it, it still tastes good with pepper and salt.

Summer Hat

Summer Hat

Rose stitched onto a summer hat
Braided with love 
Hung upon a wall
Overhead grandma’s twin sized bed
Alongside her church dress
Burnt orange 
Long sleeved
Hemmed below the knee 
Clear pear shaped crystals along  its neckline

Good folk come around bedtime 
Conversing over old pastimes 
Words get through her head when she sleeps 
A song through the lips
A peck on the cheek

I Love Camiguin

Camiguin is a pear-shaped island
Lies northern tip of Mindanao
Second smallest island in the Philippines
Smallest province in Northern Mindanao.

Camiguin is rich of natural attractions
Waterfalls, hot and cold springs 
Evergreen forest fringed with sandy beach
Truly a place to convene with nature.


Oh how I love Camiguin
A place of safety or refuge
It is where my parents met and made 
Eight children. True love that 'till now they have displayed.
