Short Residency Poems

The beautiful iridescence of the sunset
Exuberates love and happiness
Peace takes residency inside my mind
Stimulating feelings that elude time
Totally free without boundaries
Caught in the rapture of serenity...

   Much-maligned during his Presidency
   George W. Bush still denied residency
     in the Republican Party today

   ‘Midst the mess in the Middle East
   The GOP yet withholds its charity 
     ~ from a leader of true moral clarity

Hairy spiders do not grill
    steaks on consecutive Tuesdays
  due to alternate-side-residency-
    restrictions in bushes on parkways

  Nevertheless, if seeking opportunities
    to slake cracked-throat-thirst
  Welcome to the Wetlands
    where founts of poetry burst...

Scouring cerebral rooms.
Lost in the hallways of feeling.
Locked in emotional tombs.
Each key now revealing..
A door behind a door.
A mansion in my mind.
Apathetic drive carpeted floor.
Blue prints undefined.
Eclectic paintings hang.
Crooked on walls of peeling plaster.
Then my door bell rang.
Welcome to my mental disaster....

Standing in the dark of night
listen to my breath
as it hisses into the black
Orphaned raindrops
announce residency on my face
Thinking of all the repeats which haunt life
Breath and blinks in unison
The blood pumps constant grind
sun and moon propaganda
of time
wind traces its fingertips over lips
Final death never to be repeated...

I cannot deny my “yellowness” 
Its golden edge slicing the sunshine
Causing the sunflowers to sulk
Although they claim residency
While I just blew into town
Nearby Jonquils aren’t impressed
Yet lean to take a look
I revel in my “yellowness”
Rest gently against the breeze
Beckoning the honey bees
They will tickle me tenderly
Gathering my essence
Promising my “yellowness” is safe
Just catching a fresh wind to another town

Mothering
A small piece that builds up a past 
Past residency that creates anger and vexation 
True example of free independence and love 
Belonging to genuine DNA to distant relatives 
Caring for a companion, words, and faith 
Desperate for a better tomorrow because the fear of no more days 
No heir to take up empty places 
Just wanting to see a self portrait of an ideal person 
Stuck in a world of full of spring poppies 
Warm weather is what kept a whole hearted me...
