Warms the southside of my pine
Coltrane's sax exalts!...

         floating in the imaginary
        in delicate whispering chords...

listen to that hip cat blow
his smooth jazz groove is so sweet

There once was a cat named Max,
Who wanted to play the sax.
But alas he had paws,
No fingers, just claws.
No way could Max play the sax....

Treat was lulled to sleep
listening to his beloved owner play sax
it was the perfect segue to heaven
when he awoke he was a puppy again!

He plays the saxophone to the max

A virtuoso, the simple facts

The girls think he's dreamy

He makes them so steamy

Aah! There's nothing better than good sax...

Luke was asked to pay a luxury tax
Or else the clerk would confiscate his sax
  On the verge of fury
  Luke chilled, said, 'Don't worry'
'That sax? ~ merely a harmless, blunt-edge axe...

A Custard Cream
was not your dream
meal for a first date.

You called me mean,
but if I'd been,
I'd have baked 
an 'After Eight!'

sound of blues ripples on--
smokey tunes blowing hot
sizzling flamed mood...it's jazz!
sax notes intoxicate
swirling like coltraine's grind,
soulful trance whips my breath...
spice of night,   weekend jives!

honking and grunting from
the gutbucket of hell,
angry as a burning parrot,
crazy as ju-ju,mad as the third eye,
divine and terrible,beyond all sense
a tenor sax that spikes your heart...

you got it man, you got it.......

Foxes on the trumpets
  Brown bears bang the drums
Rabbits race 'cross xylophones
  Grown men twiddle their thumbs

Bambi's on the clarinet
  Lassie's got the sax
The trees all sway to fiery winds
  In arson's hands, the axe...

Kevorkian played the fiddle of death.
Fauci (mask on) mouths an alto sax.
Putin taps away on nuclear keys.
Xi bangs away on a drum of disease.
Lap dog Jong taps a tiny tambourine.
While Bunny Biden lip syncs to an audience of 1....

My heart once beat for
           Picasso

screamed for the violin
          the cello
          the oboe
          the sax
         the drum

            Now
my heart rests in a box
       gift wrapped
          for you...

the jazz-playing giraffe is on the sax and bob is on the fiddle
Let’s do some dancing down the hill and meet in the middle
I loved what I was hearing from my auntie Doris, Diddle Biddle.
Ended up staying out all late with a friend who tells a great riddle....

She put up with a husband who cheated,

but in running for Prez, was defeated.

So more time in the "House"

with her sax-loving spouse

was a dream (which would not be repeated.)

no piccolo

nor no no not
sopranissimo

part of the scene 

saying we'd 
be smoking 

and are the

smooth jazz just sizzles
totally loving hot sax tones
that dance on the streets


soul saxophone spirit
gold and shining with such pride
musician of mine


notes fly to the moon
escape this earth in vermillion
rainbow gratitunes

Old Nelly so blue
hasn't the notes to do
some say she's a one hit wonder
but she knows she's made of thunder
singing those sad chord days,
she plays her jazz in new ways.

Old Nelly play the nose,
ring out the sax
and soak the audience with your hose,
stamp them with the facts,
Old Nelly's back!...
