Roses are red, violets are blue
Got five fingers, middle one's for you
Nothing personal
Perhaps a bit amoral
Must speak up for the posies so true...

Dimensions of the poetic,playful
posies,once absurb come into
perspective the upside down unlocked
its potential perceived,evidence now
orientated and then expressed....

A lady named Rosie liked posies,
They always smelled good to folks' nose-ies.
She filled up her house
til one day her spouse
said Rosie's dang posies must go-sies....

The
bouquet
of autumn,
lasts but a short
while-
but
real
flowers live-
that spring from our

love-
such
coloured
aromas,
garland others'
day...

There I see a rainbow
Sweet posies on display
Scattered along the garden walk
A Springtime memory

All the birds aflutter
Shadows still remain
A morning so dignified
Along Mulberry Lane

We are bringing mama flowers, high ho, high hay!
Two woodsy bunny sisters were excited and happy today.
Purple posies were out, ready to be given away.
Mama was thrilled with this lovely gift for her birthday....

Had landed upon my brow - declare !!
O' how this beauty gathering strong
Of colored posies - repair !!
To kneel - I plucked - she glanced - eyes bright
In a moment - I reached to share...

cold
droplets
softly fall
soaking summer's
parched thirsty earth

caressing carefully 
planted pots of pink posies

slowly seeping into dry soil
filling sloppy puddles with wet fun
and muddy footprint reminders of rain...

COMING TOO SOON
by H.B.Ussach

Popping up like pre-fab stucco-concrete-aluminum posies,
Poking up on parking lots as donut shops and quick lubes,
They are plain, utilitarian, proletarian low-low-price bunkers
On a retail war-weary land....

Funny bunnies, Honey,
Costa lotta money!

So do pretty posies,
Panties, chocs and roses.

If I had a packet,
I could really hack it … 

But you can’t buy prezzies 
If you don’t have readies.

Nicer far than this is 
Hugs and kisses, Missus!...

I always wanted my auntie’s giraffe vase that held flowers.
It was given to me on a day where the sky filled with showers.
I brought him home and filled him up with posies fine.
Thrilled in every direction that he was finally and truly mine!...

Plucked for you, this little flower
Given in earnest, modest gift
Posies and love bloom by the hour
Plucked for you, this little flower
Sun kissed and rain wet by shower
Hoping yellow, your worries lift
Plucked for you, this little flower
Given in earnest, modest gift...

In Farmer Joe’s Garden

There once was a rabbit named Rosie.
She liked to eat carrots and posies.
While in farmer Joe’s garden,
She startled the yardmen.
So, they fled like big chickens, those three!

When I was six, mom picked flowers for my teacher; 
I added some magic yellow posies.  Teacher threw my yellow
flowers away. When I am old and become a teacher, I will be 
more sensitive of different points of view.

    perception's hinge
    opens up new fields to view
    tears, smiles, joy, fear...

Once you've got the writing bug, you'll know it.
It's not like other ailments you've had.
Instead of getting over it,
you're composing. When you find
you're popping out posies
almost daily - then
you've got it bad!
Doctor says,
"NEVER
STOP."


Just write and write and write. Best advice I can give....

let Basho build a fortress 

beneath the sunlight fair

O let the velvet posies

in plumes of fragrant air

bleed upon the flowing water

to purify thy soul

let Basho paint sweet colors

red green orange and gold

haiku-

painted pictures
i turn the amber page
through days of old

A little old lady named Rosie,
Loved to plant things like veggies and posies.
Her garden a sight, the whole yard a delight,
And butterflies played ring round the Rosie.

Now rabbits got into her garden,
And ate everything to yard's end.
Out the back door she flew to round up the crew,
And proceeded to make rabbit stew....

Roses are red
Rosie is blue
Wondering where
Her boyfriend Fred
went to

He left in a hurry
In such a flurry
His mind a a blurry
Thinking of Rosie
Giving her posies

An afterthought 
Instead he thought 
two bouquets of
Red lovely red roses
for  valentine's Da\y

With a card added
Telling her of how
He feels about her now...

Daily bouquets from me just for you
Sprays of fresh dainties each morning anew
They're not made from flowers as one would expect
But corsages of orchids of music bedecked
Posies of pieces played straight from my heart 
Unspoken words, melodies of art
Unclad and uncovered, my soul now in view
Be gentle, these bouquets are played just for you...
