when autumn comes too heavy,
forgotten in piles,
powdery stamens floating
atop lakes of buzzing air....

Shifty brown waters
Gnarled grey shack
on a verdant grassy pier
Snow white townhouses
on nearsighted shores
The sky, powdery blue
and you,...

He smells like dead butterflies. 
i can still see the powdery color
from their wings on his skin
he's a canvas, 
i'm watching him come to life...

basking, broiling, oiling
picnic baskets, boogie boards
storming, stinging, flying
lifeless, stone cold

powdery snow-drenched
coldest in seventy years
eyes frostbitten from hot tears

frozen mustaches
stalactites dripping with chill
million ruble lunch to thaw...

dainty powdery blue butterfly
makes most petite yellow wildflower
look giant-like

are you a memory
are you a glimpse
are you a faerie

she is gone 
before replying
but I remember...

she looked fresher than a new  April daffodil
powdery blue eyes
exotic Georgia peach skin

girls in the locker room stared
she was quintessential beauty of loveliness
without realizing it...

Warm fuzzy, squirmy, powdery smell.
Goo, goo music to my ears
Peacefuness, facial expressions galore.
Firm gentle grasp on my finger tip
Helpless devotion, personal satisfaction
Love grows every second...

eternal heavy
 covered with eternal snows 
thunder and lightning 

powdery distants
swollen by the melting snows 
the speed of lightning

Her 
prince
waited
by the sea
to etch her portrait
in powdery sands beside him
before nocturnal waves danced in sheer moonlight kisses;
Alas, too late in rendezvous, she captured his evanescent silhouette no more....

Premiere of Persimmon Pureblood
Pennsylvania’s premiere debutante
prettier than a Parisian parasol
persnickety and powdery
poufy, perfumed, perfectly petite
Persimmon practiced her pirouette
pleats parading petals in a perfect circle...

Powdery white, puffy cotton candy mountain clouds. 
Blue watery blue skies a mile high. 
Birds dancing by.
Sun sparkling, glistening beaming bright.
Sun illuminating, giving radiant light.
I'm having an experiential feeling;
1st Heaven like!...

on powdery wings
flies high near the lights flutters
an endangered moth chased by bats
escapes the bats but...
dies in the night skies by street light
nocturnal nights fluttered moth

war be no game
war is men
in the trenches
on the line
up the hill
downwind 
flying colors through the air
blue sky and rabid sun snapping
pictures of flapping angels
falling off a cliff
digging a deeper hole
amidst the powdery musket-mist

In this festive season of ho, ho, ho
  of sleighbell jingles o'er powdery snow

The time draws near for resolutions
  to fix problems that beg solutions

So, this year I firmly resolve
  My 'No' means No

My 'Yes' means Yes ~
  In this alone, I'll no more jest...

A top a mountain
Pointed above the clouds covered
In powdery snow

Himalaya sky
Hard to breathe must be to high
Hold on to the rope

I don't wanna fall
Cuz I might fall on the goat
What's funny bout that

Fell broke the goat's neck

Yellow and

candyfloss pink

pastels,

feathered fluffy.

A masterpiece of

powdery
 
soft strokes

and vivid

colors.

Strikingly

beautiful,

rosy maple moths

are splendiferous and

quite

extraordinary.
