Short Spritz Poems

morning hair

messy moppy morning rats nest
endless daily mirror defeat
blowdry straighten style spritz
and go lather rinse'n repeat

As you see we have no Febreze
Butt cover your smell if you please
Just spritz three or four times
Then release by design 
and the next person won't say "Jeeze!"...

That wicked old witch made me the Tin Man

   Sans a heart, I'm like a rusty tin can

      I creak like a screechy hinge

         Making my many friends cringe

            A spritz of oil keeps me going again...

white wine beer mixer
                                 sunrise awaits, raindrops spritz~
                                     poor mans champagne joy
                                                                       #4...

SPRITZ

Season’s heavenly treats,
Shaped with a cookie press.

Stars, trees, pinwheels, wreaths -  with
Sugar sprinkles on top.

Sweet, crunchy after baked

Santa “cherry cheeks” smiles -
Sugar cookies and milk!

Fancy dancy unicorn friendly cowgirl boots
Stomping tromping riding along on shoots
With glitz and spritz and things that make me smile
Kicking and tricking up things on this country mile
I see you coming and I laugh at the things you do.
All feminine and girly, showing up every ballet shoe....

Used to be I got haircuts for two bits,

      Along with a shave and hair tonic spritz,

          From the barber bawdy jokes

               Juicy gossip from town blokes!

                    Now for twelve bucks a clip is all I gits!

Sauvignon oh Sauvignon!
My crimson grapey friend
While I enjoyed my time with you
I'm sorry it must end

Cabernet oh Cabernet
Yes you I used to know
Sad but true, I’m done with you
I’ve moved on to Bordeaux

Bordeaux, Bordeaux oh my Bordeaux
You vineyard berry blitz
The summers here, and I declare
I choose a white wine spritz...

Slender yellow petals 
Fit perfectly into a fabric bud
All placed neatly on velvet stems
Searching for roots in a grass filler
No sun to reach, they bloom to a white wash ceiling
No scent to inhale, the artificial spritz wore off
Arranged picture perfect 
Never to die but to stand behind museum glass
Fake beauty among the immortal...

My fingers are blood red, but not bloody.
If adults were here they might be wondering; it looks like Kool-Aid.
Most probably from my handy burgundy hair dye touch up paint.
I spritz a bit of it on my part when I start to look like a red skunk.
Luckily I work with children who have not noticed that or my white streak.
Which makes me wonder why I even bother with it....

BABY BOOM BAM

balding oaks — tires blend Autumn leaves crisp notes.
the full foliage of pines spritz the lane in Christmas furs.
picture perfect stroll, auto snapshot arranged in year’s portfolio.
baby boom bam — colors come alive — cheerful scene
no longer rests in New England...baby’s born in the South too.

bloodshot deriving out of wide eyes conformed to the ceiling 
ruby red polish accompany the nail
spritz of fragrance leaving behind an illusion of professionalism 
receiving roses to give glad hand towards beauty 

why is my allurement the focal point of my pitiful existence? 

the roses molded
	the incense faded
		the varnish chipped away
				the lids have found one another once again
awaken once more only to find that expression...

A little lemon slice
To spritz upon the fish
There on a bed of rice
A tasty little dish
Presented to entice

A little lemon slice
Or oft it was a lime
Tequila splashed on ice
Hooray, it’s party time
I’m flush and feeling nice

A little lemon slice
A large glass of sweet tea
Some southern paradise
Refreshing as can be
Don’t have to ask me twice

A little lemon slice
Extracted from my neck
Is packaged up in ice
A melanoma check
I hope it will suffice...
