That was December! 
One tadpole swimming alone
In the blue spa....

I set my foot on spa
For fifty long years....

restores a lot of chutzpah

eating poetry with a
plastic fork
sophisticated
drinking breast milk
with a straw
wavered objects
seeds swell your spa-
cious womb...

Often times I
Urged myself to take stepS
Right before the dooR
Gives treat, my mind yet settling for refugE
On the word, not spA

I wish my love a peaceful Shangri-La
Where I can save her best from daily cares.
A warm place where winter never dares
And my heart smiles to serve as in a spa....

The waiter recommended electrons
But they wanted something to get wrecked on --
  She drank her protein shake
  He picked at his uranium snake --
Then ordered a ginormous peletron...

A young mermaid from old Shangri-La
Had a Math quiz --- right after her spa 
So she thought, “What to wear,
That will make the boys stare?”
Then she picked out her best algae-bra!...

Disney’s Fantasia movie
Beethoven’s Fifth
the movie ‘While You Were Sleeping’
all bring me calm, peace, relaxation
a spa works for some,
a massage for others
painting brings me serenity...

I push my feet blissfully 
into smooth sun-kissed grains of sand.
Taking my feet abruptly from their fun,
 down to the shore I run.
Warm briny sea caresses them; 
they splash like happy children....

Offer
Offer a donative
Offer your prayers
Look into the steaming water and know she cares

Gaze
Gaze at the golden image
Gaze at the beautiful face
Close your eyes and feel her in the holy place...

Quenched

Whenever I’m feeling quite blah,
I will not unwind at a spa.
	I pour a cold beer.
	My woes disappear;
And all I can utter is…..Aaaah!

There once was a girl named Miss Curry
Whose brows always caused quite a worry.
She went to the spa
To have them waxed raw  
And now they're not nearly so furry.

An old man sat next to me in a spa

gnarly and cracked face he said, "Ooh la la!"

I felt a pinch on the rump

and turned around to a bump

"Hey, Donald Trump, na, na, na.”

Stock up the flock
Flock beyond lock
Lock in fine log


Star in a spa
Spa near and far
Far need not mar


Seed happy feed
Feed that serves need
Need inspires deed

Relaxing in the sun
having fun
traveling, sight-seeing
viewing the oceans
riding a bike
in the early daylight
just vacationing
at a spa
dining with great foods
movies, shopping, going to different places
enjoying life
time for myself
enjoying life....

Your top edge
is geometry – 
a never-ending
finger-tracing
line.

Your inside 
is liquidity – 
a tepid spa
of chocolate
that I’d rather 
had been 
hot.

Your handle 
bends its elbow. 
Linking up,
I sip.

A tulip to my lips –
You are my cup.

A Horse Carriage ride
A dinner, a place for excitement
Surrounded with fun, in town
A spa day
Family and friends around.

Gifts, Laughters, viewing the sceneries downtown
A day to remember
Elegancy, Designed fashions
Overlooking in passions.

A Birthday Event
Angels are sent....

I watched you walk away that night 
Then later had a dream
We were sitting in a sauna
Wearing robes while enshrouded in steam 
Then one thing led to another
And soon it all quickly progressed 
'Til we were only left standing enshrouded
I think you can figure the rest

My Brain is Frazzled

Been on the Razzle
.
Since New Year's Eve

Drunk and Disorderly

Body and Mind

Craving a Retreat a Spa

An erstwhile Detox

Clean undies and socks

Deodorant underarm

But most of all

I need someone to love 

Who loves me back

Is that to much to ask ??

HAIKU #12,049-12,052


When I write haiku
My mind in spa called Iris
And I am in charge

My body seem poised
Like personal trainer firm
As muscles of mine

Reward is in thoughts
I'll own like a work of art
Bidding me to bid

I want to be toned
By fresh colorful visions
With vocab of worth.
