A calico kitten ran by,
Alert and rather spry.
Home she went,
Now she’s spent.
From running into my room just to lie.

Running off with tomorrow
divorcing today
The moment left orphaned

Viewing the monkeys running round
The small things in life
Feeling caldo on this ground

The soft breeze
From my lips leaves shivers
Running down your spine
Maybe I should close the door;
And shut the blinds

Dreamily my eyes they open,
And my mind to running verse,
Line on line passes with me
To flow again when pen's in hand.

Mystery Running

I am a wolf,
Sly and Cool.
I can be tough
And out of rule,
But when it comes down to it,
I'm the one running from you.

Running across sticks.
Overdue for blood licks.
So eager to afix

Nowhere

I,
Running 
From here                                                                 to there
But getting nowhere.

What a Lovely River Smile

Have you ever
Seen a hippopotamus
Running in cadence,
Alongside an
African, Kenyan man
Oh, what a lovely  
River smile

Pull your blanket up my child
I know you are so very tired
Let momma tuck you in to dream
Of running free in meadows green

For the tooth fairy
It can be quite scary
Taking a milk tooth then running
After putting a penny in your bed – how cunning

Sacred in its offering,
christening the past

Wellspring of indulgence

Start running because i'm here

In a circus she's running
Wearing no make-up
You become the misplaced one
Flagged as a mere bystander
