New world full of firsts
Excitement simmers then bursts

Invisible in nature
it simmers within
To rise to the surface
when conflict begins

Hedgerow full of life
Simmers under summer sun
Wild orchid thrives as
Unbridled honeysuckle
Provides sustenance for bees

Tantalizing onions smell
Garlic simmers well
Crabs still in the shell
Chicken too

giant black dogs
corner in the back yard
snarling
black sky simmers overhead
a dirty cauldron
there are never enough warm clothes
in the closet
for a dead man

first days of summer
solstice heat simmers and sweats ~
cool blue waves hug shores
summer heat rises
rushes past swirling fog banks ~

homemade chicken soup
simmers on the kitchen stove
liquid warmth for winter's chill
memories surface
my mama cooking supper
we gather at the table

Seething sorrow simmers in the marooned mind,
permeates pain in heart plunged deep in misery.
Divine light illumines the soul, agonies rescind,
rousing hope weaves bliss in blessed life tapestry.

Pumpkin seeds on buttered sheets
roast in my oven.
Popcorn drenched in sweet syrup
gets shaped into balls.
Hot cider simmers. . .
Halloween’s

Sending noxious fumes about
Long after the fire’s spent
Will wildlife return?

Jazzy music shows
Dream feel that now glows
Sense just how you know
Deep profound poise flows
Seize sanguine strange fit
Love shapes bit by bit
Lost echoes seem fit
Wonder simmers wit

Intergalactic simmers
Brilliance lights shining

Cool reds, blues, greens,yellows

the lips i one's kiss seems to hiss from the touch of my lips as it simmers and leaves a tainted reserve of the passionate kiss i one's felt the fragrance and the silkiness of her body seems to call me back like the taste tangerines so has her body become an infatuation to me

bent over
the fire
stokes
the logs
aflame
it’s holiday
the brink
of passion
the flash
the flicker
of hearth
and home
homing in
the pigeon
lands
with message
in its claws
hello
the chimney whispers
it’s holiday
the smoke rises
simmers

Swallows return bringing summer
Heat waves ruffle the spring air
Banyan tree’s scorched shadow simmers
As soil cracks in sunshine flare.
Night falls with ashes of burnt sky
With cool touch southern wind blows
Stars twinkle summer melody
Lifts up my parched mind morose.

The city simmers under
Rivers of slow flames
Glass walls blaze in torches raised
Nightfall's amber claims
Blue mirage on far
Drops of silver mercury
Summer's melting star.

Xanthous vipers crumble and
Copulate on pallid bursts
Of violent ash and vapid sand
Drunken blows to swollen bones
Macabre and salty, bitter and grand
While wolven maws abuse brash lips
Gluttonous passion
Simmers on pendulum hips
Thrashing crests of poignant skin
Fevered, gasping, blissful sin

“kitchen cauldron”
gathered
together
a covey
a gaggle
mother and
mother’s
sisters and
mother
pasta sauce
simmers as a
song’s sung
for dinner
pray thee
three bay
leaves be
thy trinity
a tea
of thyme
to time
to undo
boil brought
counterclock
wisely stir
the brew

slow, lingering after burn
of fire without smoke
simmers within
rotating polarity
as of soul’s choice
we feel each hue by touch
as we embrace and release
these wave forms sensory
presence feels alive
renewal continual
celebrates uniqueness
leaving no footprints behind

Rush forward to greet the shore-bound partner
Send away to hide in the sea
Come back, come back to the sunny altar
Away from the darkness and smothering algae.
Sucked in where underwater, a world moves along
Through death and life and blackness too
Down deep, where there lives a fatal throng.
That simmers in the profound blue.

Craving a poboy,
a women in Michigan
hangs her head and cries,
longing for a home
that no longer exists.
Dreaming of seafood,
Mardi Gras, snowballs
and jazz bands-
A man in Oklahoma
awakes in tears.
As one lonely jazz horn
floats a requiem
over empty streets,
and a pot of gumbo simmers
in a government issued trailer.

Odes and clerihews and rhymes.
Every day brings challenges,
Testing expertise sometimes.
Rich broth simmers merrily
Yielding a gourmand's delight.
Served to all who enter here,
Open to them day or night.
Untold pleasures do await.
