pretty purple paisley ponies prancing away
quintessential queens quirkily quipping one day
respectfully raising radiant raptors red and gray
spectacular spotlights shimmying a smooth sashay
terrific trotting trembling truckers down by the bay
Like the hush of mobile crystals
stilling, inside a breezeless night
Like the echoes of distant stars
shimmying towards the moon
Its like tendrils of gray smoke
wafting through the temples
A silent Buddha contemplating
beneath the Bodhi tree of life
Inner peace can only be realized
through the senses and the chi
You can only hear its splendor
when your sitting on God's knee.
Mini mangy monster Marvin moo
Nearly never noticed anything new
Outrageously outgoing onset overdue
Plunking his plush posterior on a pew
Quizzically questioning Curly-Q
Respecting ruffians Brew, Grue and Rue.
Shimmying and shaking shivering Sue and Stew
Teaching talented Tommy Treachery too
Uniting understudies under the letter U
Vaporizing validation veering into valley view
Welcoming wild werewolf wearing blue.
I have seen dreams
Shimmying, like
Stars, in dark of night
I have known dreams
Mirroring miracles, that
Flowed while I was awake
I have held dreams of gem
As beam on wheels of time, so
delighted my fancy
I have floated on dreams of mercy
Recurring, causing hope to rise, like
Bloom of rainbow flower
I have dared to dream and believed, and
Basked in warmth of spring rain,
And felt kissed by morning dew.

Slate clouds stretch low
over urban rooftops,
sun’s hopeful warmth
vanquished:
man with a limp
pauses.
his weary eyes,
wary,
survey that sky,
grimy gangling
fingers
fidget
buttons,
wind biting through
plaid jacket’s
worn fabric;
on, he hobbles
behind
shopping cart,
cluttered and dull,
left front wheel
shimmying,
sere, dun leaves
and discarded wrappers
tumble, rustle
alongside
in the gutter.
Sun shimmering o’er frothy snow
Like faeries glimmer
In far fantasy lands a-glow,
Shimmying they slither.
Crystals are glistening
Nature is listening;
Soul is awakening,
‘Tis quite a spectacular show
Sun shimmering o’er frothy snow.
