Short Razzle Poems

Danced down

The yellow brick road, 

Searching for promises

Made and kept.

always think of you
with razzle dazzle red hair
contemplative
carrying the coffee bar
and us in your thoughts...

Things are really hard to believe
At this age, this way we misconceive
This path we travel
Sometimes unravels
And our mind gets all razzle dazzled...

Now remembered for just one thing
Other topics made his bell ring
As music made his heart sing-
He saw life as a chance to shine
This poet,playwright..libertine

Raucous

Raucous, rollicking rain
Rambles on hills and plains,
Relishes rumbles in
Raptures of raw laughter,
Raindrops razzle-dazzle,
Rambunctious and rowdy,
Riots of rakish rascals...

I look at the prizes
seeing Walmart
Seeing Oriental Trading
Seeing the Dollar store

The children look at the prizes
thinking beauty
thinking razzle dazzle
thinking they have won the lottery...

Zigzag threads overlap
  Zip zap tracker aligns
      Zesty and shiny, too
          Zings along the backside 
      Zany patterns excite
   Zazzy razzle dazzle
Zenith night on the town.

Living life less razzle-dazzle
Trine binder you whine
Delamination determined separation
Zero settled for clarity
Woolly winder Dominion me
While you carry impunity!?
Sliced high and decidin’
Four more years Biden'
Swung hard disemboweled
Swamp slider social divider...

"Razzle, Dazzle Doo
Why are you blue?"

"Fizzle, Dizzle Loo
"I think I love you." 

"You do?"
 "Yeah I do?"

" There's no need to be sad,
you should be quite glad. ``

"Bizzle, Rizzle Doo
I'm no longer blue."

"Bazzle, Razzle Doo
I love you too.

WISHES

I wish there were two of me
One here with you
One roaming free!


WINGS

If I were a bird I would fly
Off into infinity
And of man have no fear
Or need
Nor yearning
And of God
No plea for eternity.

DREAMS

My razzle dazzle dreams,
Ride on horses with wings!

Sunup Surprises

Sunrise celebrates dawn's exquisite amethyst flush
 Mauve melding into magenta's fuschia blush;
Sunup razzle dazzle watchman - copper rooster - rises
 Signals first light hues in shades of coral-pink surprises

My Brain is Frazzled

Been on the Razzle
.
Since New Year's Eve

Drunk and Disorderly

Body and Mind

Craving a Retreat a Spa

An erstwhile Detox

Clean undies and socks

Deodorant underarm

But most of all

I need someone to love 

Who loves me back

Is that to much to ask ??

,    ,      ,, 


Arctic bubbles caressing dusk,

evanescent froths  gather hearts

illuminating jeweled kisses; lovers

making nudges of pleasure quietly…

razzle-dazzle! Snowdrops twinkle upon

vibrant winter  xeroxing youthful zings!

Listen to poem:

Razzmatazz is jazz beyond roots and blues.
Razzle-dazzle kaleidoscope of hues.
Music and dance with multi-color moves.
Its pizzazz and cool schmooze amuses.
It fizzes glitz and glamour in views.
Which delight even the sanest muses,
To write poems no reader refuses,
To be dazzled, frazzled by its uses
Of words come to play with no excuses....

Razzle dazzle me with kisses 
face to face we cannot miss 
bye and bye the world erases 
two by two, we win the race 
Toddy Toddy tie the knotty  
Your a sizzlin' hottie hottie 
Pitter patter goes my heart  
With a bling bling a la carte 
Yum yum  your so tasty 
Hanky panky no not hasty
Razzle dazzle me with kisses 
face to face we cannot miss ....

There isn’t a road that shan’t have music
So, my fiddle is played with skipping
The musical notes surround my steps
There's celebration in dancing
A rhytmaical mode of partaking
Down the untravelled paths, singing and playing
Everywhere, and all places ventured
Tooting a rhythmic razzle-dazzle
And this is the best way travelled
By night listen to the rhythm and blues
Sleeping under stars and The Moon

We should spend Christmas 
In Paris this year with Jean 
Christmas in Paris?

Spectacular plan
Let's buy the tickets and call 
Early and  call Jean 

Just then Tommy turned 
To them loaning his senses 
"I HOPE I'M GOING!"

"Intercontinental 
Paris  -  Le Grand great!"
"We need plan tickets."

Christmas in Paris 
With joyful friends Jean Paul and
Laurent Paul hurrah!

I can hardly wait 
Razzle dazzle Joan screamed hurrah!
Razzle dazzle day!...

Listen to poem:

The oomph and zing of extra spin
adds razzmatazz to shot akin
to the standing ovation din
a hole in one gets for a win.

The cream screams to the top.

The razzle and dazzle of dance 
shake, rattle and roll of romance 
is enhanced by the oddball prance
of a jitterbug jive freelance.

Bebop is king of pop.

Jazz embodies the extra dash
of syncopated mish and mash
adding gems of splish, splosh and splash
improvisation in a flash.

Flip-flop until you stop....

Sadly-   I remember weeping tears.
Sir Razzle-Dazzle, so beautiful, 
my childhood pal and listener.
Oh, the endless days riding,
in the deep forests green.

Always calm and peaceful,
two free spirits soaring,
resting in the grass;
my horse and me.

Thought we had,
time of forever,
to seek thrills.

Oh, death
took my,

friend !
