gigantic blue whale breaches
ghosts watch wistfully...

Wistfully waiting
Longing for that gold moment
That they fall asleep

splendor on the rocky coast
turning into night

silly silent sheep
merrily munching in march
glittery green grass

slow slugging shepherd
crouches carefully nearby
wistfully wishing...

gazing wistfully 
through a deep mysterious ocean door 
into a swimming dream of you and me
a confluence of what maybe was
and what might have been...

Drifting through the quietly gleaming forest,
Snowflakes falling, silently glinting, melting,       
Gracing wings of chickadees chirping gladly... 
Wistfully dreaming...

Willy Wee Walldorf warbled wonderfully
We watched Willy’s whacky warbling, willingly
Waketa Wobblemaster wiggled wondrously
While weird Wormy Wishman watched wistfully....

Wrens
whisper
wistfully
wafting westward--
Wisp

Woods
welcome
white warblers--
weeds wakening
wings!

"I am leaving now, my love." I wistfully with misty eyes say,
As he kissed my lips while wiping all of my tears away.
I leave the pasta here, for I know I'll come again every day....

Wistfully
Inspiring
Long tendrils of branches
Lull
Observers
With a sense of beauty and calmness

Treasure
Rooted in
Earth
Exquisite joy it brings, to all a gentle song it sings...

Running through life
Under a scarlet spell
Simply fascinating
So greatly refreshing
Electric, balmy feeling
Lovingly, wistfully caressed
Lingering around infatuation

Longing
Waiting, hoping
Heart slowly dying
Memories re-fuelling forgotten dreams
Yearning

Longing
Wistfully awaiting
Dreams to stir
Prayers to be answered
Caring

Worrisome wiggle worms 
wishfully wiping Wedgewood windows, 
wandering within William’s whiskers.
Wisely wriggling while wistfully waiting 
for whoops within William’s whiskers, 
wiggle worms wandering winsomely....

Welcome Wonderful Whacky Water World of water and fins
Wishing we would wistfully wrestle wobbly west winds
Where warm wiggling worms willfully wax their smiles.
While whooping wolligags wander aimlessly along the miles....

The stiffened 
 star strummed streams
of half hummed hopes 
and dismally 
dismantled dreams.
Wistfully washing 
through the 
withering woodlands 
of the worldly 
wandering truth
 to what this
 life really means ....

Wakened, the winged and winsome wind

wandered westerly while whistling witchery.

It waltzed whimsically within woodlands -

whooshing, then whipping willows.

Worn, it waned. . . whispering wistfully....

the dwelling was quite bright
but we had such a battle
climbing the staircase
moving furniture about

with things now arranged
we’re sitting at our breakfast nook
sipping steaming hot coffee
while staring wistfully out the window...

An aqua tulle falls wistfully white,
her whispers hushed by her sister's roars;
hidden twixt and tween in mists
that rise in a garden where rainbows grow.
Does she flow in insignificance,
or lavish within the truth she knows
is hers...?...

Art reshapes all matter
Wistfully finding spirituality
And meaning in re-creativity.

Journey to monument
Of imagination opens
The door to
Personal insight
Not a test, no correct rejoinder,
We all interpret according
To our own wisdom....

Bill Clinton still wistfully rants
That tarts hustled into his pants.
But with Hillary’s loss
She’s on guard as his boss,
Denying Bill’s floozies the chance.

Are weddings only for the young
   Dancing up a storm
Limber in sleek outfits
   Graceful in their form

Older folks gaze wistfully
   Perchance they are quite jealous
Recalling bygone celebrations
   Sealed in tears they will not tell us......

Journey to monument

Not a test, no correct rejoinder,

To our own experiences....

The wicked witch wandered west
where weeping willows whisper wearily
in the winsome wind
wishing wistfully and waiting
while wondering why
wild wisteria wither
or whether the weather will wane
and  who would wave the  willowy  wand

Wading in water 
Up to my waist,
I watch the willow tree
Wistfully embrace 
The western wind 
as it combs through 
wavering limbs. 

I leave no wake
As I wander into wet depths,
Whispering regrets
With the willow tree as
My witness.
