Short Tangerines Poems

Rain tangerines and marigolds
upon the ginger of my skin
like cider blood in leafy folds
to wash away my autumn sin....

tangerines
always save for her faithfully
now hospitalized
never to weak too love her
last kiss with tangerine breath...

of course the moon cries...
there are green tangerines browned
and...the soup is mashed

Reincarnation: Autumn's landscape of color hasten return
Anticipation: Amber golds, crimsons, and tangerines we yearn
Elimination: Unworthy umber, culled to suffer and burn...

The taste of tangerines
coloring open draught
a delectable, yet sensual
snatch of beauty
running in the deep,
chasing timeless renditions
of nature's parade

the painting popped like fiber optics
like fluorescents, like neon acrylics
in hot pinks, magentas, turquoise and tangerines
with the precise amount of purples to make the hibiscus glow
I was entranced by this beauty!...

quintessence of fall
her mustards and tangerines
multicolored leaves

her trees turning black
pumpkins smile at harvest moon
crow glides in on wind

october sunset
her broken yellow corn stalks
thanksgiving coming...

Still 
 waters
 reflect hues
 of autumn gold,
 rust, and tangerines
 as the forest whispers
 to the clear October sky
 leaves descend  gently to the ground
 silence echoes through the trees as cool
 winds ripple still waters where beauty rests
                                 ----

Ravishing Rarities

ranunculus reigns
rhododendrons resplendent 
roses radiate

Some Socialize

swifts soar, swans swagger
swallows / sparrows socialize
sandpipers scatter

Tasty Tree Types

tamarillo treats
tropical tamarind trees
tasty tangerines

come and season my skies

mulberry mockingbirds,

closest to kiss the sunburst.....

green trees,butterflies and bells,

loving ruby wishes

that your mouth

harp

could sing tomorrow,

perfumes......

cradled moments,

our scattered music,

tangerines from summers'

crest......

and you....

In somnolence of tangerines  peeling
                                Thin skin reveals  love segments
                                    Sweet and sour memories

Bright orange tangerines
Taste so sweet
Our lives play out
in an instant
a brief tune 
Played on the cosmic piano
shadows creep up later on
Bright orange tangerines
Taste so sweet
You'll know the answer
when the clock strikes twelve
Midnight will bring
Phantasmagorical dreams
Bright orange tangerines
taste so sweet...

She has fire breathing hair
I did not know what he meant
Until a bonfire began popping and flaring toward me
Her hair looked like an inferno
Tangerines, corals, oranges, 
Moving like snakes, enticing me
Mesmerizing me.
I will never forget her hair.
It was the wildest I had ever seen.
I truly wished I had hair like this....

Dawn dips its brush in golden hues
 Setting sun paints tangerines
 Waves ride the sea in all their blues
 Dawn dips its brush in golden hues
 Nature's artwork, with beauty spews
 A masterpiece of lovely scenes
 Dawn dips its brush in golden hues
 Setting sun paints tangerines

I am your nurse
I like Southpark
I am a closet Southpark liker
I like a $400 bank overdraft protection
especially during this recession that does not exist
I  wonder if can live without tangerines and chapstick
I like Vets
I like to hear what they say
I am comforted by the comfort I give
I am tender, business like, funny, professional, apologetic
I am lucky to be a nurse...

Churning of holistic sunrise,
churched by God above.
Preaching of vivid truth.
Gleaming eyes see it.
No words — baby crawls
into Father’s lap.

In passing of years
fiery reds, tangerines —
lost in translation;
the tongue lies.

At death’s incline,
impending groom
holds up the globe of the sky.
Like a newborn baby
with no teeth,
an innocent smile
resumes.

Pale pink, purple and tangerines skies
At twilight and as the sun begins to rise

Such vivid skies as if painted by Monet 
I adore the sunset at the end of the day

Soft pale purple clouds gently drift on by
A hint of pastel sunbeams catch my eye

Twilight arrives and now the day is done
I just love to watch the setting of our sun

In the wide meadow, there were colors on the green,
Perfumed and lovely, and dancing in yellow sunbeams,
In the deepest emerald, were creams and tangerines,
Beauty had roamed someplace, where it'd never been!

In a deep green meadow, waited sunshine's hued kiss,
Not considerably far, from the heart's deepest wish!
Along lush byways, pinks golds and blues were lavish,
Deep in gold, 'til in silvery moonlight they languished!...

An autopsy was being conducted
with brutality
to silence the rising dialogue,

pulling out the lethal crunch
of scripted history.
You want the kiss of a parting grain.

A secondhand face crops 
up in a newspaper. Are you ashamed
of curtains ? They have covered

all the skeletons. The tangerines,
why do I remember them
like juicy lips in dark.

We are going to bungle together,
decked up to receive the body
of a honed player.

amber ochers morphing
to brilliant tangerines
melding into the horizon
an undulating sea
fusing with the setting sun
unveiling hints of mysteries
beyond shades of exotic dreams
a sense of adventure
adrift on a lifeboat
carefree
faith in the universe
and all it has to offer

The basics to live 
was with the peeling off, 
the tangerines. The innovative flight 
takes you to surrealism?

of a countdown, which begins 
to send a subsonic device 
to small jupiters.

You receive the call and
jump into black sea?

eliminating the foes, breaking the bridge.

This moment after sometime splits, 
ejects the god particle. 
You slip out of backyard 
to embrace the apparition.

The ending was never a happy thing.

I loved it when in college,
Which is when I did imbibe it,
Though syrupy and fruity
Is how many would describe it.

At parties, in a punch bowl,
It was poured and filled with fruit -
Mostly oranges and apples,
Sometimes tangerines to boot.

Though nowadays it's rarely served
(Since things in vogue may pass),
There is a local restaurant
Where I enjoy a glass.

It brings me back to years ago
When life was how it was;
The memories and alcohol
Provide a pleasant buzz....

Rolling hills, verdant meadows
Acres lined in evergreens
Brightly coloured maples, flaunting 
Clad in yellows, reds, tangerines
Farmer's fields, neat and freshly-cut
Straw sheaves, twined and baled
Hardy mums, tall grasses, purple cabbages and kale
Cornstalks, and sturdy, weathered mats
Dress and welcome entrance ways
Pumpkins, gourds and sunflowers adorn
Stacked upon rustic wooden crates
The beauty of the season is upon us
Happy Fall Y'all!
