On a wintry day 
The snow fell several hours 
Shoveling wasn't easy
 
I stayed toasty warm 
I paid two kids to shovel 
And... I gave them hot cocoa!...

to make a truly toasty fire
one must gather bare branches
from wooded fields. 

what is a fire
without a crackling
but just a warm
and very sterile thing....

Soft and sweet tapioca pudding
With bubbling, steamy milk
Sprinkled with sugar, nuts and raisins
Flavored with nutmeg spice
Creamy, toasty mixture
Cozy treat 
Smash!

in life’s pause
                    when boots are kicked off
               snow drifts, melts
          the hearth blooms
     with its blanket flower flames
toasty toes chill out

Cocoa warms my toes all the way down.
Marshmallows please and graham crackers.
Gingerbread too? Yes, thank you!
Ruin my supper? No.
Thank you very much.
Warm and toasty.
Delicious!
Thank you
Mom....

Love is in the air, forecast is warm and cozy
Such feelings of tenderness for your heart only
A sweet passion so rare
Fills the rarified air
An extraordinary moment so warm and toasty...

Sledding with her cousins every year
Reminding her that Christmas is near
She races up and down hills with a sled
Dreams of Christmas cookies in her head
Sweet dreams that night in her toasty bed
Christmas memories with her cousin Ned...

Carbonated popsicle prose
Oh it glows with fun
Sudsy taste bud delighted
Splashing wonder wheel
Frizzles on the fountain tongue

A message to the stomach it sends
Fuzzy feelings and warm midnights
A toasty surprise in the storm
Keep it close my friend...

Afternoon sun
toasty warm
basking in beams of light
a newborn wrapped in a quilt 
clearest of clear blue skies
flawless brush strokes
not even a slip of a cloud...
as the sun dips toward the horizon
a cry escapes baby's lips
I can see her breath...

Put me in the rotisserie.
Warm me up with your heat.
Let me turn golden brown toasty.
Bite into me ever so sweet.

Lull me with your fireside ways.
Hypnotize me with your love.
Warm memories ‘til the end of the day
When I rise to the world above....

Sun is out of sight 
       Clouds are out to get me 
The day has just begun 
        But the weather will be nasty
The only thing that gives me hope 
        Is my poka-dot umbrella 
It keeps me safe from threatening rain
        It keeps me dry and toasty...

Down came jolly Santa, lickety-split
not checking to see if a fire was lit.
He shot out of the chimney
while dancing a fast shimmy-
His job is oft harder than he'll admit!

Toaster Bed
I’d like to buy a toaster bed,
of the boldest red.
 
Happily,
it would heat me up toasty hot
and butter my backside,
before projecting me out
of the bed and into the shower,
at a designated hour
each morning.
 
Where shall I place my order?
Bloomingdale’s
Or Neiman’s?...

BREAK FREE                             

                                   Bright sunny buds break free
                              The joyful task of Spring
                       Blossoms on bush and soil
                 All unfold their fists
              Stretching fingers
Toward the toasty sun...

                          warm and so sexy

                          whispers at sunset

The world has turned white
Everything looks so bright

Snowflakes are drifting round
Slowly towards the ground

All the neighborhood is silent and still
Except for the children playing on the hill

Cold wind rushes
Birds huddle in bushes

Icicles hang from the wires
Inside is a toasty fire

Everyone is cozy and warm
Safe from the winter storm...

Surrounded by steel walls 
The place that feels like home 
Hours filled with stories 
The sense we speak unknown 

The cans have special powers 
Motivation comes and goes 
Behind the bars consumables 
Down the gullet it goes

Chain smoking is unavoidable 
When a bottle of straight is involved 
The fire keeps us toasty 
Cheers! To never growing old...

Super cold today in Kansas City
Freezing 
No ice
No snow
The air is brittle
Brutally cold

My feet reflect this
My toes are icy
I stare out the window
Knowing how cold the glass is
Staying inside

Warm but not toasty
Slightly chilled
Not tempted to run downtown
and park six miles away 
So the Super Bowl parade
Honoring the KC Chiefs
Marches on without me today...
