The old cabin's sunset porch
is waiting patiently for me
at the end of day
where I sit in warmth
of the sun's last rays.
There is a cross, there is a porch,
There are the eyes that full of care,
I say there is no God in church,
I say that people bring Him there.
In a bright screened in back porch
No bugs can reach my grape juice
The drink is warm as the room
I take in the wine

My grandfather’s old wooden chair
stills sits on the porch
facing the land he cherished.
Twilight time will soon come.
Grandpa’s time is already done.
Vines cling to rusted rails
Glider, in crusted red
Sometimes there are loose nails
Faded and worn by time
Only hearts can accept
How destiny travails
One part fall flowers
To two parts Jack-O-Lanterns
That’s the formula
For warm greeting on my porch
Sending in Halloween guests

Pumpkin spreads dim light
All about the feared front porch
Where skeletons live
And path that leads to old tree
Delights in scaring children

The Porch Light
It was always on
Until we were home at night
Only mother turned it out
Now my mother gone
But I remember the light
And what love is all about

Lune poetry form like a Haiku but this kind has 3 words, five words and three words
out on porch
leaky roof poor excuse cover....
umbrella open snuggle
These porch pirates are quite the wise guys
so thought of a plan to help their demise
unheard and absurd
I packaged pet turds
boy were they in for a rare gift surprise!

The perfect American back porch
it’s décor a soft winsome blue;
You can sit in an old chair
and gaze at abundance
with a sense of still;
There is nothing
that compares
to this
bliss.
Facing the north
Rallying all of my sight
Outside in the chill of this starry
Night
Thinking
Placed also where the sun
Outside the halos hit
Right in my eye
Crying as I sit
Hopeful
air like a warm kiss
crickets repeating their song
rocking chair creaking
children whispering secrets
sweet evening reverie

Picture # 1
Out on the front porch
Sits the unoccupied rocking chair
Soaking up the rising sun
Sounds surround as day begins
Come friend, sit, settle, scribe
Cold sweet tea
on a hot summer day.
The glass sweating
as the ice melts.
Good conversations
on the old front porch.
Grandpa’s stories
take me back in time.
For just a moment,
I’m a child again.
sitting on the porch
surrounded by sun and blooms
watching life go by
lemonade and song
a concert in azure skies
the daily reprise
it's a perfect hour
as honeybees quest for gold
in the mellow days
Glistening lights across my porch
Giving her a whisper of whimsy
I love having them up there
They are a reflection of me
Fragile, yet showy
Dazzling in a quiet, joyful way
Fantastically decorative and fun!
STANDING ON PORCH STEPS WATCHING BIRDS- - Haiku
south aurora porch
a following, deep steps calls
whilst watching the birds

Written words by James Edward Lee Sr. 2019©
frenzied mud dauber
porch railings are no longer
we are the killers
he bores hole in post
angry about the railings
what will they call home
will he sound alarm
will army wasps come to fight
dejected he leaves
Hope is the thing that everyone wishes for.
As they sit there waiting on their front porch.
They may wish as dream with all their heart and never wither.
As centries pass, you are still waiting there, on that front porch.

haiku contest sponsored by Tania Kitchin
Our Lord played along
Twinkle from the sun
Sang a song of love for everyone
Lord of unity
Our Father of charity
Gave of his time
To show his divine
We ask of Heaven
We see it often
His sparkle of his smile
Can be seen for miles
beautiful garden attracts flying beasts
butterflies, dragonflies, luna moths
Some of them spill onto the porch
Where they nest inside the wood
railings are dangerous
deep inside are perched
flower loving
mud dabbers
hornets
wasps
The porch looks great
She has had a complete face lift
The old rickety rack stuff is gone
New space opens up to a larger landscape
I am enjoying my yard for the first time
No railings, which always prevented my view.
A costly job, but well worth it.
The porch is waiting
dare you go?
with chairs so comfy cozy…
The porch is waiting
don’t you know?
with checker boards and pages….
Patterned puzzles
gory books
needle point and bikes
The porch is waiting
can you go?
Or must you stay inside?
