Procession order
The daffodils lead the parade
Tulips and lilacs follow
Fragrant aromas
Permeate the countryside
Fresh rejuvenating spring

dry wells of summer
fill with borrowed
love
dark books of torture
torn flags of deceits
procession of
greeds
we are shivering in
the hot wind

A woman arrived early from Minsk
Hoping to get a nod from the prince
His procession went by
She never caught his eye
Now her fondness for him is past tense

what could i do
but stop and let pass
the funeral procession
for a beloved horse
who lived a life
fraught with nobility

I knew all along I had a connection
her husband passed away
and the very next day
A rental truck in the funeral procession

Chrome meets sun;
a slick reflection
Salt and grit;
smooth surface;lined
Body scuffed;
marked;textured
Dampness green;
always forgiving of nature.
Hairs stand on end;
obscurity march
in procession

Cars line the highways
with their broken life inhabitants,
coffined tributes to a last wish that got away,
android druids in mock procession
—racing toward the end

night touches wind, gold
buds drifting off from laced hems
in slow procession,
while twirl of frothy breeze cloaks...
my desolate autumn view.

The jaw drops
as the lids of mine eyes
and mine dome
The whole procession
did hear these knees clap
with the stone
as the Elder read
"This is
her new home"

caught up in sunshine
sunflowers bob ten feet high
picking pink pansies
a blackbird nest found
with its black speckled blue eggs
red westerly sun
procession of hours
pink gold red purple and black
morning to midnight

My heart beats like a metronome
Counting the days in a procession of cycles
Sleep becomes a vigil of remembrances
On a life eased by music, sweet music,
And journeys grasped like a lifeline
In fleeting kindness of strangers.

A Foodie Pleiades Poetry Contest

Parades of dough shapes pie
Pepperoni walks in
Pasta sauce rallies taste
Pockets of crust tips edge
Proud dills and hams in step
Perhaps anchovies, too
Procession of cheese crowns

Pleiades
Softly now do shades of eve draw nigh
cool whispering breezes
herald nightly visitors
as they wend their way
on a familiar journey
across a boundless indigo sea
an endless procession
eternally in pursuit of the day
or perhaps
in flight from it

Frozen tundra has a still water canal.
Parading on it today was the tiger caravan.
The birds were silent as they watched the procession.
Lesser tigers stood guard or in amazement.
Life as we knew it in the frozen north was over.
The tiger emperor had arrived.

April's scratchy rain
drives daffodils ornate glow
garden temple bliss
spiked blooms of proud gold
sweet charm of composed spires
in sunlight leisure
drift to awareness
canopy of yellow buds
that come up for air

night touches love, cold
as a rose drops like torn hem
in slow procession---
till weave of frail petals cloaks
my mournful autumnal view.

Faint yellow is the first to appear
Leaves march forth in harmonic progression
To autumn’s clock all must adhere
Amber, scarlet and purple in procession
Bring gasps of wonder till winter’s colorless indignation

My Funeral
Escorting my corpse,
The funeral procession,
I cease to exist,
No more than a cinerary,
Lived whole life as immortal !

The ghosts of fear are nesting
glaring clouds that are driven
A procession of baying donkeys
The ponds reflection loudly decries
as gulls shriek for attention
Nighttimes plumage banishes bluish
A torrent of rain flatters
the receiving river
painted by the sunshine
in the days of gold

Procession
Blessed within living water
Thank you Father
For your fire
Appointed
Anointed
I AM
Therefore I AM your creation of thought
Descartes said this a lot
I think therefore I am
God said
I AM THAT I AM

Summer's parade
Is on its way.
Cirrus pennons
At the forefront
As high skied, and of their shape
Foreshow who celebrate
With kites that day.
Best procession!
Fun's; unrestrained!
Life, the benign
Which radiates
In sync with bouncy posture
And a ball-rolling gesture
Our part. - you're gained!

There is something more wretch'ed
In this windy howl.
Something darker, this night;
Expands on its fright.
As diabolical a led
Procession of sounds
Lashed, raised up lost souls by;
That in death cant die!
All hopes to rescue, redeem
Long since exhausted
Who now, screaming out as one
Wildest weather throng.

Rhyme
Life is a procession of days,
They fly past us,
With acute precision,
They keep us with a vision,
Times are floating by,
We live in days,
At times happy,
At times sorrowful,
And at times dull,
Yet our count on earth,
Continues to evaporate,
The doctor comes,
The priest comes,
Our lives and our times vanish.

sleep is an escape
dreams of you entangle
in the cobwebs
of my remaining consciousness
dancing,spinning, skating
enchanting chimes of
your melodious love
my waves are transformed
in a blissful reverie
vibrant procession
raging through every cell
every atom
your caressing breath
gentle breeze
for my vanishing soul
