Premium Member Winter Whiff

tall tree trivet tents 
tempt thrush toucan and trogon ---
tantalizingly tempting 

crude cute corals crawl 
calm candescent capricious ---
caressing captivating

The whiff a nasty niff a strong pong may be earth-shaking but if we do me and you beautiful music we'll be making when I break out my guitar and strum a song then you remove your shoes and hum along

A Whiff of Jasmine

a whiff of jasmine
                              as she unties her hair-
                                   hint of rain

A Whiff of Spring

A whiff of Spring’s
A lovely thing
And oh, such joy
It seems to bring!

A sunny bench
Helps to unclench
The stress and sadness
I can’t quench.

It will not last;
Tonight a blast
Of frigid air
Will come on fast.

But that small whiff
Reminds me if
I wait, there’ll soon
Be blooms to sniff.

Premium Member Porch Thieves All Whiff

  
	  Put a clothesline over my front steps
              hung my sweaty athletic wear over there

           Amazon delivered a package 
              placed it strategically, under that line

            Porch thieves came and took just one sniff
               ~ on this one they all whiffed

Premium Member Skew-Whiff

Listen to poem:
see the seesaw sea
send its waves to rock 
the barrel stave wooden seahorse 
to and fro, askew and slow

though I'm feeling 
skew-whiff in the waddle
and iffy sickly not well
I think I'll stay
riding the bare-back bronco
to whittle the whiles away 
letting the be, what's may
till the break of day

Premium Member The Whiff Was Something Else Now

Miss Maisy cow with a floral headdress crown
You are ever so gorgeous, all the way around
Never have we seen a prettier bovine than you
Too bad your cow pie has stuck to my shoe.

It was okay until I tried to pry it off.
Some old lady was wheezing with a hard cough.
Whew! The whiff was something else now.
Allergic to perfume, from Miss Maisy Cow.

Premium Member A Faint Whiff of Perfume

    A stray lock of hair
       in the corner right there

    In the parlor, a faint whiff of perfume

    The couch messy and wrinkled
       piano’s ivories uncovered and tinkled
    I know what you’re thinking, dear
       but please don’t assume

    For these are just clues, all part of a poem  
       ~ detective-style, ala Watson and Holmes

Premium Member A Whiff of Happiness

Cheerful view as up on the high hill
Our birds sing with gusto and elation.

From phlox to daisies, butterflies flit and thrill,
Cheerful view as up on the high hill,
One can hear the mystic notes of a flute still,
Songs that pacify the soul, with sensation.

Cheerful view as up on the high hill,
Our birds sing with gusto and elation.

The Whiff of Freedom

If I were a bird of short life span,
Gliding through the morning air,
Flapping wings of bright white tan,
Rising high for bodily care.

Were I the pride of all my fan’s,
Trotting around  in majestic wear,
Stretching my neck for out to scan ,
The cabbage leaves and a lovely pear.

Were I so scared of that evil man,
To fly into his cruel snare;
I would flutter around and wildly plan,
To free his hand from my sweet mane.

Premium Member Getting a Whiff of Sunflower Zombie

Sunflower Zombie is here the corn told the pigs and the fence
They strained to look, wondering about her fashion sense
Bet she’ll be wearing a feathered boa, an old sow said
Bet she’ll be green and ghoulish, after all, she is quite dead.

This was stated by a bull who had been nearby chewing cud.
Don’t mind him, said the fence to the others. He is quite the dud.
Sunflower Zombie sauntered over to give them a little whiff.
She is sure pungent! Said the corn after getting a sniff.

Premium Member A Whiff of Loneliness

O clouds of loneliness, I beckon you to pervade within the seams of my heart and rain ever so lightly to cleanse its walls of the dust that tumult of life incessant has fixed on its walls, to let me breathe and discover the self true that resides in me. O Clouds, be only a visitor and do not make me your home as deeper you glide in heavier is your assault, tearing away from me even the last straw of my self in the torrent of gloom that you might unwind.
