It may be then 
but
it Isn't
because
time
comes 
short 
of a raisin
In 
a
sun
rise
after noon

How are the Lilies of the Field
Above without Heat of the Night
A Raisin in the Sun shall brew
To Sir, with Love...A Patch of Blue...

They named their baby Brad to be grand
But with a typo it came out Bran
How's that for luck
But then it stuck
Now they're raisin Bran I understand...

Hey babe, what flavor cookie are you?
Chocolate chip, sugar or raisin to name a few
I'd guess sugar
Sweet and demure
What a charmer but that I already knew...

my eggs are
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...

Raisin Bread of which I bought
the wrong one.
You are white, I wanted wheat.
You are hard, I prefer soft.
I will return and buy a new
Raisin Bread.
But you,
I will never forget....

RAISIN CANE

There was a dried-up grape who became uncaring and overbearing
So one might say he became one brazen raisin

I used to think life
was a luscious bowl of grapes
but since in many weeks and months
we haven't seen the sun
I've fundamentally shriveled up
my mind's become a raisin

Doing Time With Love

Like a raisin in the sun
Time is its own enemy.

Encountering love on its battlefield
It ticks away with ageless accuracy.

Eternity knows no boundaries;
And love is infinite....

red rice risotto 
roasted ripe rutabaga
raised raisin roll-up

saucy soup saucer
sloppy spaghetti supper
sweet summer sipper

tempting twisted tea
tomato tossed tamale
turtle topped torte

Black
is the darkness
midnight without lights
wet dirt turn to mud
quite
exhaust haughtiness
a evil beating heart
grape
plum
raisin
cactus breath
a rose statue
skeleton
peace and calm
is the darkness Black

Sunday, I take out a bowl.
Monday, a spoon.
Tuesday, open a box of Raisin Bran,
Pour some in.
Wednesday, the milk.
Thursday, I spoon some in and chew.
Friday, wash and dry the bowl and spoon.
Saturday, return the bowl to the cupboard,
Spoon to the drawer.

Sunday, I take out a bowl.

A wonderful and sweet delight,
 it always seems to make things right.
They can stop tears from thier eyes,
 when little children start to cry.
No matter if it's chocolate, butter, raisin or nut,
 they are something we love so much.
So if your down and feeling blue just have a cookie or two.

It was in the heat
Of your desire
That my dream began
To blossom
And then to fade
Like a flower
I could not eat
For the flower
Comes before the fruit
And if the fruit
Is a raisin
It is sweet
Enough
To be digested 
In the mouth
Salt as sea
And then to rise
Again
Over blues of mountain
A stiletto in the eyes....

I scream

I dream

I love ice cream,

Brain freeze

This is agony,

Salted caramel

Or mint choc chip,

Strawberry sundae

Tastes good to me,

I have a confession

I love rum and raisin,

I scream

I dream

I love ice cream,

The taste and the texture

I think are heaven,

Out of ten

I score ice cream eleven....

Get me gone, get me golden 
In a car, shrieking two emotions mixed as one;
Relief and excitement.
In a car, reaching high speeds,
Higher than permitted.
Permission sunk like a ship 
Or rather dried up-
Like a raisin in the sun
But not my dreams.
Those are still green grapes.
Or maybe they’re red. 
Color aside – they’re cold and they’re free....

Little stray dog
Lost in the fog
All skin and bone
Where is your home?

Got no pet-food
(YOU ain't no prude!)
Just want a smidge
Let's look in the fridge...

Scarf down sweet-pickles?
(The starvin' ain't fickle!)
Raisin bran gone
Still here at dawn...

LORD, you gettin' fat
As a lazy house-cat
But you're just a loaner
('Til I find your true owner)...

Cheerios lacks sugar
Alphabet cereal needs marshmallows
A wise one invents Lucky Charms
I eat all the colorful marshmallows out of it too

Wheaties and Raisin Bran are awful.
Daddy eats them
I have no idea how
Is there a sugar swamp in the bottom of his bowl?

In the winter we have Cream of Wheat
Malt-o-Meal
Coco Puffs
Nothing is special about Special K...
