Short Solomons Poems

Not just beauty and songs
Most humane, homely, comely
For a sibling - wanted
Kindest to know they thought
Wombs to borne such prayed
Envious of hardwork and modesty
The melody that escaped
Heads couldn't resist
Awake and dreaming
Wanting what was ripe
They grew hard
They craved and came - 
Numberless!
Adams with ten Eves and more
Solomons with large harems
Even Oliver Twists
Pleading her hands

Here we are, alive, vibrant and joyful,
looking outwards at myriad objects,
whilst ensouling this body vehicle,
being powered by Gods breath; who’d suspect,
enabling feeble form to stand erect.
With constant mindfulness, in staid stillness,
we are cognisant of truth of oneness,
though oft ego does seek our indulgence,
beseeching we accept separateness,
our presence flows through life with nonchalance.

Willy Wagtail

Willy wagtail black of body
White of breast now in his suit
Elegant as Cary Grant
Tuxedo is his bag of fruit……..slang 4 suit

Rides upon the sheep or cattle
Plucking insects from the air
Swings his fantail side to side…..constantly
Flicks the water food is there

Ducks and weaves so sure of flight
Chitti chitti says the bird
Talks a bit during the night
Chitti chitti often heard

Don Johnson

Found all over Australia in New Guinea and the Solomons...
