Humour is my forte, perhaps you've noticed Sure don't hear any of youse people protest In fact, to the contrary A poem that is merry Brightens your attitude each day to the mostest

Your Obituary

Unless you have indisputable proof to the contrary Always trust a friend who tells you about your obituary They wouldn't lie, they'd spit it out It's not something people lie about A real clue, you're not up to par, heading for a cemetery

Scripture Alchemy

Speaking volumes in the youth literary,
An ordinary pen of a humble grey mind,
Shimmers, be it favourable or to the contrary,
Smooth flowing thoughts, of its own single kind,
Now mature enough with exclusives to grind !

No Matter What You Say

no matter what you  
say to the contrary you
will always keep on giving 
me renewed opportunities 
to reenter your world even 
if they are very sort lived 
the chance always exists 
even when it may not appear 
to be so to the untrained naked 
eye of a passer by the chance 
still exists and will continue to 
exist through the knowing eye
of the two of us

Quicksand

Like quick sand and her looks
Poetry is deep within;
Not until the SOS moment dawns
You realize how futile your exercises are.
With wanton mischief
I entered those innocuous looking waters...
After I stepped in, out of infatuation,
It stuck me, 
no use struggling
I submit to her ... still and silent
Any effort to the contrary
Would only multiply my misery.

It Rained

It rained this morning...
but I am not surprised
myself arising a bit
on the cloudy side -- 

by the afternoon
my mind a blaze
of clear activity -- 

the sun was high
and bright -- 

to the contrary,
the day before
I arose quite chipper --

yet it rained all day
such a windy, soggy 
dripper

the night even more fierce
not a star of light

what were you thinking!?

The Situational Door

the situational door of 
continued opportunity 
never truly closes 
it always seems to
somehow remain open 
so be it even if it´s just a crack 
it stays open no matter what 
you might say to the contrary 
you leave it open for me to 
stick my foot back into your 
life every so often through 
out this years and for years to
come your never truly done with me 
no matter what you may say

Middling Mild

Ducks are up in the air,
it is early - too much
a middling.
Nature lures,
leads us on,
the weather is wrong.

Icy licked stems
are surprised.

Defrosting ants and marmots
patch and mend,
loggers lean on buzz saws.

People take pause,
store bobble hats
and puffer jackets.

Today, to the contrary
the snow is heavy,

any hint of avian romance
is indefinitely delayed.

Coffee and the Poet

Coffee and The Poet The clumsy poet, had spilled a giant mug of coffee on her beaming kitchen floor! At a parallel time, came a gentle thumping upon her  kitchenette door. Twas her ravishing Muse! With a basketful of enchanting poetic ideas to explore. How grateful this bereft poet turned out to be. No more searching for elusive words, quite happily, much to the contrary! June 6, 2019 10am PST

Judas' Carrion

Judas’ Carrion
	

Gossiping in such a furtive manner
Determined to raise success’ banner
Murmuring eloquently in the dark
Calumny where there’s no spark,

In the coven of conspiracy gather
Passing the Cup of Hate to another
Greedily imbibing to quench thirst
Competing to see who wins first....

To the contrary, let God be blessed:
He’s not with limitations distressed
When from another we plan to steal
To the affected He plans to heal!!

False Led

Wide eyes beguiled by pursed lips and strings
Temptation crouches low as a tiger
Hunting coy glances and diamond rings
Tiger now an ox who plots beside her

Promises of riches, fame, and love
Sing like a fairy, little gold canary
The wolf now disguised as a sheepskin glove
Once gentle, he acts to the contrary

And they'll dance as snakes in courtship
smother and crush their ribs and wants
Blame the rat for sinking their warship
Spell out expectations in different fonts
