we raced small coracles,
formed from walnut shells;
down rivulets in gutters
of our smoggy streets.

In youth, I was sadly misled
by my walnut brain and my walnut head.
Then I saw Mr. Peanut, scratched my head,
and learned to think like a peanut, instead.

Premium Member my forest

air lifts the walnut tree’s branches
they wave in every direction
my forest is alive

I hear the birds
they use the leaves as camouflage
robins, cardinals and one blue jay

Premium Member I Want an Owl Bench Today

Find me a wood carver said the queen.
I want an owl bench with a walnut sheen.
Do not let him use wood that is old or green.
I want an owl bench today, said the greedy queen.

Premium Member The Walnut and the Banana

Sit down.  That is to say, have a seat. 
On oatcakes, where such treats bide, 
knowing not, they'll soon be inside.
When a walnut and banana meet, 
that is the time for us to eat.

Premium Member Hidden

Mother Nature played games and hid
things from this lonely kid.
She put a starfish in the sea
and a walnut in a tree - 
but that was just the easy part.
I never found your heart.

Tranquil and peaceful
Reminds us that we have created nothing in nature
Eagerly overlooks our human errors and selfish ways
Earth’s soldiers, who guard us well in form of oak and walnut

Crack the Nut

Once there was a man called Peas “the nut”
He always insist “Don’t crack, tight the nut”
Bolt and nut should be tight
Walnut should crack to eat
Bloody should we crack the nut or tight the nut?

A Quatrain

The night in the wine the hands pouring 
The dawn on the hibiscus on the hair-bun 
Afternoon at the walnut shadows ever growing 
Evening with the sounds of bangles, no gun

Bumble, the baby bee had the best cradle of all
It was carved out of a walnut by his Grandpa Paul
It rocked in the wind, gave a gentle little sway
Bumble slept inside it cozily, snoring away

Secret Love (2009)

Down by the old walnut tree
Where the rabbits hang in the shed
He's buried his heart in an inch of dirt
A timeless capsule of affection
Raw and moist
Grippled in the claws of darkness and dust

Premium Member Grooming Her to be Queen

Baby bee was snug and safe in her walnut shell
Alone in a hive pod, where only one bee could dwell
her shell was rocked by worker bees and a small drone
grooming her to be queen, she was never all alone

Premium Member satisfied walnut tree

walnut tree was now slightly blemished
deer had done lots of damage
getting his antlers off
tree did not mind
felt like a willing partner
available every year
he smiled as white tail flew into thicket

Premium Member Thats a Cut

Little tan fox hood was leaping in the leaves
We watched him turn suddenly and examine his sleeves
He brought out some twigs and branches, and a walnut.
The director of the play yelled out “That’s a cut!”

Premium Member Pearl-Prayer



When harlequin herbs bask in jeweled forests, do you hear me?
ferrying upon pearl-prayers, seeking warmth in doe's walnut eyes,
I'm the last of seven souls ~ before heaven's hyacinth gates.

Premium Member Walnut and Peanut

When, once, a peanut and a walnut met,
as covered by the Iowa Gazette,
the question good folks asked was whether
these two nuts could go together.
As a kitchen cook, I must insist -
these two nuts can co-exist.
