cushion cut cosmic rhinestones; 
Priceless angles flash, 
catching dreams 
slow....

she is a graceful swan
dressed in taffeta with roses
and tiny rhinestones that glitter as she swoops
her legs are pointers
her arms are magical,
she is a swan...

in the cosmos, communication is constantly zipping and zinging
on fiber optic wavelengths only evolved aliens can decipher and see
imagine them as firefly rhinestones in lavender, coral and turquoise....

Rhinestones and; liquid diamonds
oozing down heavens stairway
in the form of an effervescent waterfall
enhancing Hawaiian jungle vegetation
in the most delightfully lively way
i watch in awe
enthused by God’s gift to me today...

A golden fortune
lingers along the patterns
of my palm; a opiate suave
the mere touch; a picturesque
symbolic of greed and dishonor
thousands of lips taste
swiped corporate rhinestones

Religious votives
light a somber lair.
A hole I fathered
with rhinestones of doubt
and swatches of fault.

Sentinels loom -
vapid gargoyles
crouch in ghostly
contemplation

ogling my
handiwork.
Poised to pounce

when the
flames die

out....

dazzling rhinestones in the azure sky 
ethereal feeling that heaven is watching
crescent moon brighter than usual
streaks of lingering cosmos in stardust form
constellations peeking through gorgeous clouds
wolf’s howl dares to break the reverent silence...

sky wrapped in rhinestones

   knitting hands through love’s compass

       as one velvet  star

           pointing beam on embossed eyes

…he moans soft in light,  my ” dawn!”

glitzy colored rhinestones
popping in and out 
with the help of the light
looking like pirate's loot
worn on grandma's coat
left over from 1942
a spider or a tiger
sometimes a snake
holiday brings out better ones
memories sear through relatives
glitzy colored rhinestones
pinned on those who remember...

Your Tiara

 105 rhinestones glued into cheap elegance
 Trying to be more
 Silver plating, like your mind, chips
 Magical and awkward
 Worn to pressed dinner parties
 Invitations and assigned seating
 Little metal clips securing you your class
 So dangerous - Only a pin to hold you

Dusk moves over for twilight, rhinestones in the sky make ominous shadows
Voices around the campfire get softer, some people are silenced.  Laughter has 
slowed.  Reverence for the night permeates the evening air.

			twilight reverence
		       softer campfire voices 
                      rhinestone stars twinkle...

Spritely now, powdered grains brush on the docks
And then rouse four winds,draped among treetops
Naming stars, through far up painted moonlight
Dressed in rhinestones , gold-dust hails summer rites.

Barbie hails from India
With dark eyes and ebony hair
Slick and straight, soft to the touch

Her golden sarong is exotic and chic
Adorned with rhinestones and pearls
There is such a glitzy-ness to this Barbie

She must be of the highest caste I think
Nothing else would make sense
I get ready to put henna on her hands...

Coral Bell was a dainty, delicate faerie.
She often wore the colors of the sea 
Her iridescent gowns shimmered 
Sparkling with pearls and rhinestones 
Reminding the mermaids of ocean waves
I wish I was a faerie, said a mermaid, to herself.
I wish I was a mermaid, Coral Bell thought.
Neither realizing they were perfect the way they were....

The yin and the yang of my artistic self 
parades in the world of imagination,
I know I need a bit of both, 
but I do have a favorite

I like the glitz and the glamour of the sequined stars,
The rhinestones of snow, and the pure whiteness of clouds
They add the right flavor to the rest of myself
For I am oranges and reds, swirling in wild paisleys....

Night time is their day,
as they hurry and find,
someone to comfort,
then leave them behind.

Motels, and hotels,
and sometimes a car,
trying to survive this day,
some wish on a star.

Rhinestones that sparkle,
they stand on the street,
some are just children,
wanting to be free.

Can they go home,
why did they leave
too old for their years,
but not for their tears.....

We all wanted feline female cat glasses in 1952.
We could get them with silvery rhinestones too.
I wanted them for sure, when I saw them later.
For in 1952 I was still cooking in an incubator.

These cat glasses were worn by each movie star.
We loved them so, they were glitzy from afar.
By 1962 they were no longer the thing to wear.
By then I was ten. Fashion at this age gave me not a care....

You couldn't grow irises out of your heart -
            But you could get out rhinestones,
                              Dazzling like diamonds -
         And you bought others this way;
The others who could 
             Live in the dark and cold,
             Painting their rusty hearts in gold -
        And everyone seemed satisfied
             To be a tiny parasite
                   In this world....

In dusk's umbral mist
phantoms hover 
across August's white embers,
humming their pale lilac chant
through bare trees
chiming with fledgling icicles.

Fields of vestal amethyst
splay past frozen fences
and sepia skeletons
of summer grass.

I listen
to diaphanous lyrics 
of a mauve moon
from my gelid porch,
throwing coffee
from my hot cup
to watch it freeze
in mid air
and fall like rhinestones
on the waiting ground....

Diamonds. How many ways can you chip the edges
off desire
so the facets still inflame fire?

Gold: A treasure 
you starve to afford – a minted 
hunger in the hoard.

Rhinestones: Cheap tears
solidified
in the corner of each eye.

Pearls: So many layers
of weeping hardened about a vexed core 
that just keeps growing.

Don’t look behind you at those 
baubles and gems. Why would you want them?
Walk out and shut the door....
