Percolated Cuppa Fancy

early morn' espresso sanity
more than clouds in my caffè,
musings' sugared cuppa fancy 
atop frothy dreamt wanderlust 
& places to visit, people to read,
percolating poetic joie de vivre

Thawing Out

Thawing Out

Hooks
holding
icy gloves
frosted hats and
empty overcoats
hang by tightly shut doors
winters adventurers drift
searching for percolated warmth
beckoning aromas guiding them
gathering greetings, thawing each other.

Premium Member The Wake

The
house was full
    of yesterdays-
books
    that filled
      wet Wednesdays
cross-stitch
   hours upon the wall
   eclectic
art,glass,pottery
collected,moments
   sentiments
   priceless,unique
   irreplaceable-
a smell of love
     percolated
      into offspring
memories
drifting
       to timeless
tomorrows

A Brain Awakes

A brain awakes,
sheds 200 pounds.

Before the brain awoke
it dreamed
that it opened doors,
ground beans,
percolated morning coffee.
It realizes that it had dreamed
far too early.

Meanwhile, the awake brain
is a bug swimming in a toilet bowl,
and it wonders
as it drowns,
if you will sleepwalk
through the rest
of this
long day.

Savoring

Plush puffs of sincerity rest   
flush  to the king of hearts   
bleeding   feeding   
on oxygen  blown free   
eternal fires of destiny   
  
where cinnamon wafts of excitement   
pour out  percolated with precision   
slowly whistling for another spot   
swirling rhythmically in an never   
ending caramel cup     
    
Savoring every last drop

Premium Member Now We Can Make Our Own Sheep

British Biogenesis took a front seat
When the first bio-cloned sheep Dolly was created.
In a tiny glass test tube nice and neat. 
All we need now is for it to be percolated.

Also a little know-how in kinestheics 
And an advanced degree in biogenetics

Possibly the ability to follow deep,
And clear step by step directions on U-tube.
Voila! We are now making our own sheep!
I knew we could do it, with a bit of lube.

Percolated Coffee

From sleep to wake she mutters.
Her mind stalls, mumbled words she stutters.
The walls guide her down their dim lit hall.
It is but a crawl, as her coffee does call.
No automatic drip, no self-timed event.
Morning ritual, to her time well spent. 
From beginning to end, that old coffee pot.
Guarantees , that her java stays hot. 
So, before her day starts, there is one thing for sure.
She will always partake, of her percolated, coffee, cure.

The Prey

Eyes of darkness,
Caught the prey,
Brutal eagle eyes,
Always hovered her,
She veiled her,
Beneath the tree,
But eyes chased her always.

She hid her,
In shades,
Red-blooded eyes,
Stabbed darkness,
Pulled her out.

She cried, wept,
Withered away,
No one heard weeping heart,
Except brutal ears.

Ferocious nails,
Pierced into flesh.

Tears percolated to mothers (earth’s) womb,
Stains of lost virginity,
Became filthy.

They buried her.

Premium Member The Day She Cracked

Her emotions percolated, hot and unsettled
until she exploded, shattering reality.

Loud, angry words punctured our hearts
as she lashed out at everyone and no one.

Her eyes darted, a mixture of hurt
accusation and confusion.
Disjointed words, rambling thoughts
paranoia, all flung and strung
hovering in the air.

We groped in vain for a soothing balm
to comfort her fractured mind.

A broken vessel takes time to mend
but it is never quite the same.

Premium Member Politically Speaking

The Oracle spoke in tongues
Of crisscrossed words reversed in a pattern
Percolated in the minds to be given to lungs
Then tossed to the winds like a light to the lantern

Giving out hope for each to carry out
A new day that torched in their voices
While the words that did sway and melted all doubt
Meant all they could say or impart in their choices

A time when tribes and clans joined to make great their cause
But forgetting the reason for all the applause!
