Those sunny days, so cool and bright,
Spiky trees adorned with lights,
Sounds of bells ring in a roll,
Christmas vibe is here to glow.

The Bird of Paradise plant that I saw
Spiky petals in a vivid orange shade
Only Nature could have displayed it
And so strange that none can ignore

The belted kingfisher is a cool dude,
But his girlfriend is even brighter hued.
He's loaded with dazzling features, but
What I like best is his spiky haircut.

The sharp edges
spiky points
that once sliced
mercilessly.
Round and mellow
with age
tempered
by incessant
pounding waves.
The world now viewed
through an unpolished lens;
a pale blue haze.

Little Danny Hedgehog
Just a-walkin' in the garden
Kissin' up to kittens
Hmm... What the dickens
Danny says, Please pardon
That I was in your garden
Kittens' tit for tat ~
Get lost, you spiky rat

Spiky hair.
Brittle.
Porcupine,
hedgehog,
spiny anteater
echidna,
kid.
Grow up prickly.
Grow up quick.
They raze -
rib dig.
Hurts in his alphabet soup.
Jeers jar.
quills quiver.
Curled up,
face tucked
into heart.

Everyone has enemy
Even prophet Jesus had enemies
Some great personalities are like roses
They spread fragrance in the garden of human race
But they live in the thorny branches
And amongst the spiky leaves
Even a gentle wind can hurt them

The iguana is certainly a popular lizard
To figure out why doesn't take a wizard
With that spiky mane curving down its back
It looks like a stegosaurus who went off track
I myself prefer pterodactyls to lizards
To guide me home when lost in a blizzard

the warmth of a sunset, the softness of a cloud
the blueness of the sky, the birds singing loud
the green spiky grass, the grey moonlight
the shine from the stars, the darkness of the night
the sound of music , the ice blue sea
the happiness of love, little old me

Tedious season
This spiky summer is ready to leave slowly
for the snow-covered mountain retreat.
It has to adorn its weird clothes with maples
and cross the chilly river on the way.
I wish the stream is many fathoms deep
and to meet the following easier summer.

Two bonsai trees
craving for clouds
a few handfuls of rain
spiky nuggets
crying wine glass
fasting salivas
all might drench
taking the wrench off
the frontal lobe
letting a sprout
lift it's face
calling lips
on pointed treetops

Eyes,
tainted
by snow flakes
of damp memoirs;
spiky frostbites chafing her irises.
Drained lids quiver on a funeral trail
lacing sharp ache;
iced droplets
pierced like
flakes.

The shrewd gulls fretted and flew,
veered inland to avoid the storm.
Some strutted over spiky rocks,
others flew low over the sea,
occasionally swooping into the cold
rough sea below, foraging
for tasty salty fish.
But when the storm was over,
they just flew up and ventured
to blustery pastures new.

The little pink cactus flower
abides among green spiky thons.
The mountains are blue,
all distance is a long ride on a blue horse.
Rocky sand-drifts crash like painted waves
upon a dazzled eye.
I am here, I am there
I am between a stretch of nowhere
a place where cacti are road signs
for many pathless ways.

Reconcile me with Mother Earth
The milk and honey of our existence
From which we came and will return
Let me feel the spiky greenness
Of wild grasses
Bowing before the wind
Allow me to sigh in ecstacy
Of nature in it's essence
Without a blur of cities, or
Blush of smog
To smear our tomorrow's.

Ballad
Silver haired, the year
rests in the field.
Crows gather
on the sycamore bones.
The day is like glass.
Winter lurks
in the shadows.
In brittle glades,
papery pods protect
the last seeds.
Spiky coneflowers stand tall;
the goldfinches had their harvest.
Everywhere signs
of a cycle
fulfilled.

Prudence rode her neon lime green bike down to the corner
Right up to the library
Entrance, she wore her bleach blond hair spiky short
Talking too loudly and popping her Bazooka Joe
Every time the librarian glared at her
Next to the magazine rack she
Covertly studied the science section hoping no one noticed her focused

Rake
My nails down my face
Take
Nothing from my disgrace
Fake
My smiles and place
Nails
Down my skin down my arms
Fails
To stop all the harm
Rails
Keep me back but alarmed
Pain
One succeeds the other
Name
Called but no bother
Maim
Feeling hot red and spiky
Which should I hurt, my skin or my psyche

I do not know?
awaken in the vine
casting lot for a pick
for a gracious luck
scattered on spiky pines
of roses, of tulip, and of more
pick a lock of hearts
of deuces stack
shuffling decks of paltry picks
when only aces counts
piece by piece
settling in for the race
a stag in a horse race
hampered and broken
an adventure of cascading dreams..

And here I am under your majestic embrace
Giving into what your nature shares
Wondering why you need those spiky pods
Is it to protect what you treasure most?
When autumn comes you then let it go.
I too have my spiky pods
Holding on, not wanting to let go.
Keeping safe my inner soul.
As the leaves changes I hold my breath
And realise that I am autumn past.

With suction cups on its body,
It clings to rocks and such
So tidal currents really do not
Bother it too much.
Its teeth, as sharp as needles,
Line the rims of bulbous lips
And spiky studs, like armor,
Fend off anything that grips.
If this awful-sounding creature
Makes you frightened, you’d be wrong
For this lumpy little sucker’s
Just a mere 3 inches long!

In order to discourage birds
From building nearby nests,
Some owners place a row of spikes
To bar unwanted guests.
But crows and magpies, cleverly,
Uproot those spiky things
And use them in the homes they make
To shelter those with wings.
The very tools that humans thought
Would keep the birds at bay,
Our feathered friends employ
To keep their enemies away.
