Sweet Kitty

The fat grey cat sat licking, licking her long silky fur.
She lazily sprawls and yawns with a harrumph. She lay her head down and splayed her soft pink padded toes, as she curled up to take a deep kitty sleep. 
Dream sweet kitty, dream.

Still July

Sunlight seeps
through the blinds,
oozes into the room.
The ceiling fan sweats
from its labor.
The clock creeps
at half speed,
pendulum dragging
through syrupy air.

On the stoop,
the old cat sprawls,
soothing her arthritic joints.

A bed of rose petals  Hazel sprawls
bed started  collapsing then falls
bridegroom heated with anger
then looked at each in  laughter
she wanted pickles  and ice cream balls

Premium Member A Predator's Night- CM

My tabby cat, sprawls on the floor, to catch a rat. Her eyes gleam bright, in dark like stars. a hunter's night. She flicks her tail and quickly leaps keen not to fail. pounces on rat, catches her prey, drags to the mat.

Premium Member East River Thoughts

In the chaos of youth lights
          dance without exhaustion
A ballet on the river
          dissonant music in the city

An agitated psyche absorbs
            the brilliant skyline
A bridge sprawls and intimidates
            perpetual motion in the city

Poisoned

Hey secret admirer
You youare give me this flare
A thought of you creates this fire
Coming by you brings this desire
Like cancer within grows 
Like tendrils it sprawls.

Funny I never tell you
'coz you are that kind
Who makes me believe
That love is blind
Since I think you don't see
Which to me is poison

Premium Member Peak Summer



blazing sun in fields
cicadas hum in the trees~
heavy air stands still

dust clouds rise and drift
fields of wheat bow to the wind~
air humid and stiff

heat waves waltz on roads
cool water runs in the creek~
daylight holds its load

warm twilight now sprawls
stars blink in the velvet night~
tall shadows on walls.

Travails of Vivisection

The future dubs.
A pride is shattered.

The philanderer moon
sprawls over the
candlewick.

A ghost walks 
through the wall.

A thin blade of
grass, holds the sun
for ransom.

Fireflies flutter in head
savagely.

I was not able to sleep.
What was the theme of the murder ?

No sugar, no salt
was worthy of death.

Pride of Place - Piano

Four-legged guard patrols the papered wall,
Stood by whispering windowpane wind drawls
She is grand, grandiose hardwood keys small
And all across the lounge room rug, she sprawls.
Four-legged guard waltzes to the evening ball.
She dances in her homestead in A minor calls,
The acoustic pride echoes bold and tall
And the chorus chords charms the hall.

Ashes of Paradox

Monstrous faith,
Blasphemous state,
Cursed to a Lazarous fate.

Phoenix ashes tracing a Brownian route,
Genie dances with an ambient view.
Casting spells where destiny brews,
Crafting cells where reason skews.

Factual sprawls as time distorts,
Actual flaws that time contorts.
A paradox script the cosmos writes,
A Faraday cage,our fate locked tight.

The Alchemist

The needle and syringe, all mankind waits to taste the sweet of ecstasy. A way out, an open door, the alchemist sprawls on the dirty floor. His experiment sponsored by greed incorporated, just another delusional form of chloroform. With salty solutions, making him thirstier still, the alchemist dies on humanities floor, waiting for love and nothing more.

(Haiku)

empty spot on bed. . . 
with TV remote in hand
she sprawls across it

(Limerick)

He used to steal every top sheet
and the blankets that covered her feet.
But now that he’s gone,
all the covers stay on.
Even sleeping, she now finds life sweet!

(Couplet)

Divorce might leave a gal lonely and poor.
At least, she won’t be aroused by a snore.

Premium Member The Harlot

Mid Uzi shots from vacant lots, which strike and ricochet
A painted girl with flaxen curl (named Wendy)’s on her way
To tantalise with half-clad thighs, to trick again today;
And indiscreet along the street she gives her pride away
To any guy who’s passing by with cash and time to pay.

In concert halls, beyond the sprawls 'round shabby cabarets,
unjaded thoughts of Camelot imbue divine ballets.

Deprived

A hundred miles North of here,
there are lonely shy sasquatch's
elderly crypto beasts
that roam the small woods
between gray urban sprawls.

I'm told they live on picnic snacks
discarded by occasional 
slow-walking hikers.
Corn nachos, cheesy puffs, 
the odd half-eaten egg sandwich.

It breaks my heart to hear
that they have no medical care,
nor any meds to take
when they get a tummy ache.

Drama

Scene - I

On the kitchen window-sill
A sparrow hops
Its tiny black eyes
Searching for leftover rice grains

Scene - II

In the morning breeze
The blue curtain wafts
Knocks down the flower-vase
Autumn sprawls across the floor

Scene - III

In the corner
The broom sits dreaming 
Of home
A broom-grass mountainside
Where clouds sweep the blooms

We
The bird
The broom
And I wish
You're here

radiating sun
across clear tranquil blue skies
tree buds' petals warmth

hopping frogs capture
the first of blood sucking louse
plums dropwart blossoms

lips grin at the sound
from a rumbling waterfall
raw freshness afloats

skirting the valley
sprawls a field of wildflowers
butterflies sweet bed

My Dogs

How happy my dogs are to find a tree. 
Raising one leg, what fun it is to pee. 
They are a disciplined crew. 
All three line up in a queue. 
When they are done, a flowing stream you’ll see!

My Cat

I have a pet, a little tabby cat
She likes to curl inside my frilled brown hat
She has bristle like whiskers
Not strong as that of tuskers
In daylight she sprawls on my woolly mat
