Blue, spiny, varicose veins
years of hard work to appraise
clotted arteries heart's door strains
life's temporal lease instantly frays
The God of Pandemics is silly
Displaying less sense than a lily
The rest of us know
The virus can't grow
Where no one has a 6' willie!
sweetest strains of violins
played by gents with double chins
ecstasy, as they hit the highest 'C'
if they'd only comb their hair on key

ANEW
That old sun shines
Now once again
New feels divine
In trendy strains

POEM
I shape each verse
Strain metaphor
But still observe
Strains in decor

Upon the first strains
The entire audience stands...
Sing Hallelujah!!
(Handel's "Hallelujah Chorus"...King George II started this tradition)
I pick a history from the peck of grains;
Only my retention will take me far.
And through modest abasement will I unwrap it strains?

small rapture snail strains,
uncurls, searching in time's tick
nature's subtle crawl
Haiku composed December 29, 2020
Like an addled cuckoo that garbles
the birdsong that he warbles,
I've experienced many strains.
I've got gremlins in my brains,
and I've lost my marbles.
Serenely the breeze blows past
Gently she inhales to consume it all
Stirred by sounds so isolate
She strains to hear the wind call
Gathering her wares she she walks on
Now blemishes appear on the
painted gold metal surface, miniscule
scratches accumulated through the
strains of daily life.
Even watches cannot escape the yoke of time.
The wheat, when rich with grains
Bends its stalks in Gratitude
The weed, though it proudly strains
To raise itself, yields no food.

WIT
Wit works better than hits
Act with sure intention
Bits find some awkward fit
Tact strains odd convention

Let me play the strains
Of those cadenced memories
And lost orchestrated dreams.
Strains that ebb and flow
From my blue rustic aged
Viola of loneliness.

Hearing vibrations
passivity strains
Learning to listen
hearkening reigns
Sound and resonance
euphony binds
Volition the ears
— eternity finds
(Herb Alpert: June, 2024)
like bad poetry
strains to push out another ~
constipation reigns

What more than a whisper of wind
can we demand on a starry night
With strains of violins in the background
and a velvet-gloved waiter
~ to take our order
The hammock’s mesh strains the sky
Underneath arms stretch to touch
The velvet splendor of love
Azure beauty of the skies

Yearnings of childhood
distant echoes
of mystery, magical trains
broken tracks
the mind —
often late past midnight
senses
the source
strains… reaches…
for stairwells
of
explanations
Myriad stars glitter
Sad music strains filter
Dreamily seen drifting
Seemingly your gifting
Horizon’s eye awakes
Sirens all but forsakes
Towers of rage thunder
Showers wept asunder
they heard the faint strains
of 'Amazing Grace' playing
on Scottish bagpipes
static and then buzz
a new pod victim had left
a radio on...
***Invasion of the Body Snatchers (Re-make - 1978)
Birthplace
I’m raised
Big part
My heart
God’s gift
Hate drifts
Less strains
Love reigns
I long
Belong
Strong bond
Faith mound
Dreams’ core
Hope soars
I rest
The Best!
Of choirs so richly graced,
Or melodies endowed,
Other strains of new joys,
Oboe sounds so vibrate,
Oft played in symphonies.
Orchestrating music
Once heard, not forgotten.
the lonely strains
like a haunted dream,
so many sad refrains
left...to drift in the wind,
now memory-born
tears when it rains...
