Furious whispers menace
Nature prunes nature

Disciplined to adulthood

A Paiute baptised, "Minnie Moons"
Was the thrill of Phoenix tycoons
At Sun City Dunes
With Silver Spoon Prunes
They loved pornographic cartoons...

hanging like
grapes wanting
to be juiced

but when cold
my eggs look
like prunes so
tell me what

actually is
prune juice
and why can't
i find raisin juice...

Global warming has grabbed us by the prunes
Predicting the future
We rely on computers
But can't solve all of our problems I assume...

Route 66ish No 1

Shane, who was from Albuquerque'
Had habits that some thought quite quirky,
He ate pancakes with prunes,
Whilst singing rude tunes,
And smoking a strip of beef jerky!!...

Chef Whipple aimed to be among super-dupers.
He was invited to fix soup for round-ball hoopers.
He put in prunes by the box
then added another for lots.
Soon all the players turned into party-poopers....

Trump Stands or Sits

Seems like wherever Trump stands or sits,
All of our economy will turn into total pits,
If seeking  toons,
Try some prunes;
Golden showers be prepared for a big blitz.

A florist
working in her shop,
snips and clips and cuts away,
making a fragrant floral bouquet.

A poet
writing at her desk,
picks and prunes her words with care,
making paper bouquets with others to share....

Wild be the feline
Up on a limb - wilderness
Habitats - endure


Trees planted in life
Prunes by a Scorpio - blooms
Leaves with Gemini



Life of a birch tree
Cultivate by signs - bark
Grows prunes prose no pain...

lavender rosebuds
have called for her attention
and in that moment
from the shadows of his heart
he is jealous of roses

she smiles while she prunes
the long limbs of one rosebush
then catches a glimpse
of desire in his eye
and roses are forgotten

Trump and Big Mouth

Out from Trump's mouth words were pouring
Telling people he is one they should be adoring
But at his body abruptly they kept staring
War on poor health he must be declaring
And eat plums with prunes every morning.

Ice cream sundae
on our steamy honeymoon

Strawberries on top
Hell! we don’t need no spoon
Shared between our Tongues
salves those shrivelled prunes
God! she’s one sweet Dish
and it’s still only Afternoon 

I scream Sunday!
on this torrid day in June

promiscuous pear prunes
saucy strawberry slew
nosing nimble nude
gaunt gasps grew
lanky lust lurches
outruns vying verge

felon fruits featured
pulse flavors punctured
aiding sassy structure

moaning machine's pleasantries
slays saucy stances
faddy fruits fling

tasty taste trained
clutches emotion's crave.

Shoes
Thousands of them
Old and shriveled up like prunes
Worn leather with no luster

Shoes
Walked in by men
Men of the past who died in a scream
One loud scream
One deafening sound
An echo felt from inside my soul

Chains and memoirs
Boxcars and stolen treasures
Today I leave this museum believing I am a Jew.

Meat soaks on tangy lime
Mixed with bacon , cheese, plus
Moist prunes, likewise eggs boiled …
Mom threads stuffing. How our
Mouths drip for Morcon rolls!

Midnight hails a Yule's feast,
Marking each bite…delish!

Thinks he’s fantastic!

You look like a baby eating prunes.
Eyes all squinched
And mouth puckered,
Waiting for the hurt.

Do I scare you?
Or look that mean?

Let me try
to be more loving,
let me show you
how much i care.
I don't claim to know
All there is to know.
When it comes to love,
I'm learning as i go!

You teach me,
I'll teach you.
We can pass this test
And all the rest!...

Vegetarian I shall be,
carrots, cabbage, and tea.
Beets I have heard,
are natures cure,
and pickle juice,
keeps your blood pure.
Grapes make you glow,
prunes make you go,
and strawberries, 
I love them so.
A little wine,
before you close your eyes,
keeps you limber,
helps arthritis.
I have made my mind up,
my body screams help,
a change is needed,
can't hook my belt....

My Ficus Benjamin grew very large
“That tree needs pruned back,’ says dad, taking charge
Out come the ladder, the lopper and prop.
He climbs up through the branches, right to the top.
He lops and he prunes, the north east and west
But here to the south... a wood pigeon’s nest
 My tree’s all lopsided, three quarters shorn
And so it will be till the young birds have flown...
