Giant heart encircles
large and small hearts standing green
squirrels' abode intact.

only
one
once
meet me
theirs twice
twiddled thumbs
dunmp'ling'ed rice
homily fun wants

Have anyone to death you apparently needled?
Until thumbs were worn after being twiddled.

Lavender smell of Long Beach once more
eclectic vibes suffused the air
sheer curtains twiddled by Gulf breeze

Big sky, green of pines
nostalgia rained supremely pure
irises seventy years strong

Blinding of a blue bird

rain clouds frolicked with thunder

Valley of fire and ice
flight of a bluebird
the lighthouse as gift.

Where I needed a nap.

Dropped pen in my lap.

Ordered his usual, took a swig and went back 
He yelled "Fight to the finish!"
The war went on for 10 months from bar room to board room
Until he was finally nailed.. pinned down..check mate..
Game over....
