Winterval Tale

winds wicked ways
wind-up women's wear 
winsome whispers woo
wine, walks, waltzes, white weddings, whoosh
winters' wearisome wars with warmth 
winnow weathered warriors, widows weep

Junk Pile Prompts Babel

For all I know, I know nothing
Who can say when enough is sufficing.

No way to verify what searches reap
To winnow out truths from junk pile heap.

Garbage tower to heaven meant
Like babel feeds bewilderment.

No Beautiful Woman

Sticker in a taxi
NO BEAUTIFUL WOMAN
STAYS WITH ONE MAN
Black, bold on rainbow

I shift the phrase
Like tiles in Scrabble
On the rack of my brain
Trying to spell SENSE

On the dashboard
I spell and check into
The lexicon of truth
The adage is a winnow
With windows in it

I retrieve my tiles
And note FALLACY
In the files

The Winnowing Or

THE WINNOWING

Wake of harvest, came time for winnowing
Separation loosing chaff from the grain
Bake of bread that gave them a bestowing
Creation: body nurture that they’d fain
Make in life, a time for spirit growing
Valuation of virtues not to strain
Then we might cherish food for soul above
When we winnow, retain the grain of love

Winnow the Wind

Soft as fine cobwebs adorning the vine.
Gentle as droplets that dew the roses.   
Warm as the first taste of ruby red wine
Is love which once planted sturdily grows.

Harsh as the wind bending willow's branch.
Cold as the ice chilling mountain lake's  flow.
Hard as the drought that dehydrates romance
Is wilted love coping where bitterness blows.

Winnow the wind, divide chaff from grain.
Discover pure gold, come love me again.

Denominator

Behold the bold denominator! 
extraordinary matters level off 
and find the lowest trough; 
so-called experts mingle 
as they winnow fact from fluff. 
 
Prophets' exclamations gone to dust, 
totems crumble, metals turn to rust, 
we try for clarity, a bitter pill 
for those who trick with ambiguity, 
and cause the truth to spill. 

Avoid inaccuracies, 
seek and hold a firm foundation, 
exercise your p's and q's, 
then will excellence be won, 
the goal of true communication.
