ill at ease with a great biggie
his face all blushing
and him stuttering
she thought him to be quite wacky...

born in Stuttgart Germany
that was the start of my journey
with many years of stuttering
today just poems I bring
I’m always doing rhyming
life never a agony...

Blooming flowers, 
born under springs kiss, 
rising to employ, 
what life can only wish. 
A second chance, 
in shames forgivness, 
stuttering prayers, 
that produce happiness....

stuttering moments baptised by emotion
they linger by the curtains in the doorway waiting
come now enter do not be afraid
it is only a beating heart that waits
what is there to lose but your life

My heart was fluttering
My words were stuttering
My buns needed buttering
Had a lump in my throat
lost a button on my coat
and both feet were afloat
on that steamy saucy night
with my sexy Dreamboat!...

Shopping for groceries, this sweet young filly
Bent over which made me act very silly
Accidentally bumped her behind
Which was quite well defined
Started stuttering and stammering involuntarily...

is there a sign on my back?
label me since you're a quack
too many names
we're playing games
we're all complaining
because we're paining
too much suffering
I'm not stuttering
moments of peace
will never cease...

Reduced to nonsense and gibberish
Unable to think; the brain’s gone squish
Dissolved into a puddle of drool
A muttering, stuttering dazed old fool.
Diminished capacity all can see
Sadly, not Biden, I’m talking ‘bout me....

A candy shaped heart
Sweet sounding words "I Love You"
You are mine to taste

A rose there in thorns
Light in Pink Highlights dark reds
Enhanced in True Love

Stuttering my speech
Is it Heaven wrapped Stellar
This kiss you gave me?...

Read More

there's too many sickness
medicines hit or miss

stuttering over weight
addictions big debate

some can't be seen
few eyes are mean

judgments are made
they'll never fade

they'll slap a label on me
saying I shouldn't be free...

calling from the bush
to a stuttering Moses
"H-h-h-ere I a-am," he said

and the voice replied:
"I have a mission for ya,
hope you like manna."

It’s raining outside today,
Can’t you tell?

Even though the curtains are drawn tight
And the only sound in this silence
is the echo of a stuttering breath
I know
That it’s raining outside today
And I know it by the gloom in my heart....

While shopping for groceries, this sweet young filly
Bent over which made me act very silly
Accidentally bumped her behind
Which was quite well defined
Starting stuttering and stammering involuntarily

Wet plates of brainy salad
stalling amongst stale French Verbs
The severed heads of Queens
rot alongside the Thames
Sullen rain for the beavered
stuttering in its grief
The pretence of concentration
gapples with flames fury
amongst dusty books...

Since emails became king, the postal service is suffering
Maybe that's why the cost of a stamp causes stuttering
Are you serious, last time I looked
A stamp didn't cost an arm and a foot
Now need a freaking bank loan, to myself I'm muttering...

Spluttering, Muttering and Stuttering

Mandruka was always a spluttering
Wife was always talking and muttering
Then came Frank who was always fluttering
Golly, Molly was always stuttering
Mandruka’s wife yelled stop that blundering.

The door so softly
clicks
closed
    so
       quietly
              quietly.
I wonder where to go
with half a
heartbeat.
I will surely die
    without a full
        breath to light
            dark chambers
stuttering
   puddling scarlet
stains
a breathless western sunset....

Feeling your breath
Your skin
Your touch
Your hair

Hearing your voice
Your laugh
Your sobs
Your thoughts

Knowing you’re there
You’re near
You’re close
You’re in touch

You’re everything I know
But I wonder why
I still stutter and still stuttering
As I feel, hear, know you....

The sound of the sea on the sand
a rumbling roaring noise
a million voices hit the land
natures voice-box , gives its poise.

A vast muttering as the sea receed's
a swelling stuttering, the sea over the rocks
shocked echoing, undertow exerts its needs
an unending roar
to your ears it locks.

spooky sleep staggering
with wills wielding
hoisted hands hankering
lurching, fiddling lids
sumptuous state stuttering
eerie end enveloping

Zeus zipping zeals
pricking pulsing peels
moaning mists munching

summoned sundry saps
gaunt gods grasped
pruning punctured pats 

"Leave for Earth,
damp desirous death."
