yes...
stirred day
april first so...
the winds are
spiraling snow...
in front of the
garage...
and front door
he has a shovel
I see the look
I know my time is close
I write this with shaky hands
my time is up
I will never be found
Shovel ready verse,
new soil to disturb
Whose well to make deeper
—its draft future heard
(Dreamsleep: February, 2021)
A pail and shovel
Bright red
A castle to build
A moat to fill
Seagulls shriek
Crabs scurry
As tidal creep
Threatens the kingdom
Another day like a gerbil on a wheel clip,
Running 'round the house...
Stayin' in the same place
I think I'll go shovel some rain
It was the young man's pleasure
to dig for buried treasure
with shovel in hand
he suddenly planned
to dynamite, just for good measure
Snow, snow, snow
Shovel, shovel, shovel ...
Melt, melt, melt ~
Flooded, my humble hovel
Don't shovel a clod upon my head
when I'm dead
or put me inside a cardboard cup
when you burn me up.
Get rid of me at last
with a cannon blast.
Deep Views
shovel, one small hole
rooftop view, ants far below
Forest, giant trees

Haiku, (Things Felt and Seen)
On a wintry day
The snow fell several hours
Shoveling wasn't easy
I stayed toasty warm
I paid two kids to shovel
And... I gave them hot cocoa!
dough-chew foo-witt dat hoe
sumthang aint right bout it
raking round acting like a shovel
dats ah hoe
rows and rows
of work to be done
dat is ah hoe !
twin city-house shakes
gouging to prepare for new road
shovel lifts the earth -
in a row with their mother
ducklings waddle past window
Mighty wind blowing
Bringing with him tragedy!
Lines down trees on ground!
Mighty snow falling.
Digging out is hard to do!
Jared shovel that snow!!!!!!!!!
Flake
It snows. I shovel.
It snows. I shovel. It snows.
Weisenheimer, eh?

it is my hovel
I have a shovel
but will not use it
for this is my fit
your opinions are great
but you arrived much too late
This is my home
And I have some of my own
I was once pristine
Then my owner gave me work ~
I’m down in the dumps!
Covered in faeces
Just used to shovel horse poop
It’s such a crap job!
There was a man with a shovel
Whose house was a relative hovel
Digs a hole in the floor
Think his dad was a boar
Cos he cant stop sniffing for truffle

Change to winter tires.
Shovel the snow and spread salt.
Stoke up the fire.

I remember it too well.
My sweet love, this Valentine's Day,
as under the cold snow you lay,
while this snow is so deep,
with high roses I creep.
Next year I'll shovel a pathway !
When someone has taken the trouble
to scrape up dog mess with no shovel
into a bag that is plastic,
then park it there as a tactic
means pollution has been redoubled.
Everyday I shovel and rid some rocks
my super looks say this is a crock
he bats at my shovel
again I'm in trouble
thinks I'm stealing poop from his litter box.

The Devil’s apostles with shovel and hoe
Plant their crop of death before Winter’s snow
Fertilizing with bullets row upon rows
A perfect preview of Hell I suppose
Poetry is not like building a house
One brick at a time
Until you finally complete your plan
Poetry is like digging for treasure
One shovel full at a time
Until you unearth a prize
The world has been covered in a blanket of white
The snow so deep there is no car in sight
The shovel should be out to start this fight
Yet I think I would rather sit here and write.
When you asked me do
I love you, I
smiled and asked you what is love,
and how could I possibly offer it to anyone but you?
