Loathing Yokes
Hatred thrives.
Love dies
The heart cries.

Bite a funny
Fill your tummy
Find word fun
Try a pun
Shed your yokes
Grab some jokes
Free bee honey
Tastes so yummy
You do foo-foo
Tell a loo loo

The egg said
To the pancake
I’m healthier than
You are, my colors are
Bright and beautiful
Sometimes I even have
Double yokes inside and
My best friend is crispy bacon

Quenched beyond compare,
Bathed in endless springs of peace,
Reason has no business here,
Stripped of certainties,
Soaked in wisdom, cleansed in truth
While immersed in love, yokes flee.

Stroke silly pokes
Such heavy yokes
Noise by vain choice
Hurls hurting choice
Meet odd mismatch
In vulgar sketch
In broken fest
Drama works best
Not much to say
Where moments slay

For Children of War and Other Deceptions
The load of time
weigh heavy
on the yokes of life;
the unshelled shelled.
Gone.
Innocence of children
preyed upon;
life failed to root itself.
Janus face war genuflects
craving forgiveness;
praising its necessity.

our trees have blossomed,
and some have knots in their yokes,
like one in my throat.....
fragile limbs look down and weep
to acknowledge my despair

Whiskey whispers
Liquor laden squeeze
Alcohol breath sneeze
Rancid whispers
Strong liquor strokes
Massive surge endears
High hurling high here
Stupor now yokes
Rush upon rush
Strokes of strange gladness
Runaway madness
Blush after blush

Nurture nice niche
Observe the way
Thrill touching teach
Instruct fond say
Choice charms charade
Eye each ember
Meet movements made
Yield yokes yonder
Move mystic mime
One odd obsess
Toss trouble times
Imprint impress
Vibrant verse vests
Etch each excess

Old map
Odd sap
Laughs poke
Touch yokes
Sweet ease
Loud peace
Joy jokes
Swirl strokes
All this
Fits bliss
Just know
Fine glow
Touch seeds
Fond feed
Brisk rhyme
Floods time
Word well
Crisp tell
Soft touch
Thrills much

The artist in me myself instinctively tracing
work a share miseries to inspiration making
Shrouded within my cocoon of slashing brush strokes
lost lovely my Dorothy gently softly releases her yokes
Watching graduations of deaths cold colours on her lovely face
ship me lost anchor my heart lost love no longer in her embrace

Dawn comes around
Drowsy eyes ground
Blurry new strain
Espresso gain
Stride now sleepy
Gaze now blurry
Misty cold rain
Monsoon spreads plain
Slow movement yokes
Dreamy form strokes
Abrupt this light
Dash drowsy sight
Now brew gotcha
Coffee cuppa

What are our millennium fables?
Women keep giving each other labels,
No harmony for our ecology,
An alliance should be our synergy,
No accountability for the economy,
No wise leaders to steer us to unity,
Century's getting older, folks!
Any teamwork to cast off these yokes?
Symbiosis should aim at harmony,
Let's pray for millennium synergy!

Seek proof?
Know truth
Glimpse wit?
Love fits
Know how?
Live now
Why draft?
Claim craft
Odd vice?
Old spice
Who feels?
Love wills
Noise pokes?
Joy yokes
Glimpse sight?
Hope lights
Dream dance?
Prize chance
Word sweet?
Charm meets
Play when?
Just then

Birth day is that moment of dawn when
Individual jets into the earth from unknown horizons
Resisting and crying all the way
To begin a long struggle with decay
However difficult the mission may be
Donkeys flap their long ears to welcome another laborer
And lions of men train armies to ensure safety
Yokes they make- to put into bondage possibly another rebel

Rouse rote
Pulse pokes
Yet yokes

Glimpse good
Zest zooms
Bright blooms
Feel face
Prize pace
Grand gift
Love lifts
Joy jumps
Soul sums
Heed heart
Sure start
Moves make
Tough take

eye-GASMS are artful things of flesh left out by the woods /
she went were-wolves once ate meringue pie before acquiring
a human fedora and impressed all the women at the outdoor
market where butchers smoke meat and flay cigars with white
whiskered smiles. Where were the yokes when sadness crept
over the clouds and a comedian choked on a badly baked joke?

No refuge here
Just bitter cheer
Search now in vain
Kind words said plain
Cliques and cliches
Odd word croquet
Islands of stress
A savvy mess
Not much for laughs
Broken mad stuff
Loss that now pokes
Sad burden yokes
Once a big tribe
Scattered once ripe
Not much to say
A wind-blown way

Look to cheer
To blind fear
With joy here
Dress to be
What you see
Wild yet free
Cheer speaks well
As laughs tell
How hope dwells
Poise funds style
As warm smiles
Flood each while
Look to zest
To move quest
In fine fest
Seize this day
To fund play
On your way
Happy pokes
As joy yokes
Such brisk strokes

Duty bound,intensified labor
overburdened yokes endured
as must,to not fall out of favor
our light becometh rest,assured
Strength of spirit,brightly glows
troubled times our feet will show
but,in the end,you have to know
new beginning for your flow
The mighty tested,evil bested
honor bestowed amongst the trusted
staying true to self,self wealth
loving gold is true natures health.....

Curious craze
Murky maze
Sanguine strange
Crafty change
Misty moods
Fetching food
Dreamy dance
Cheeky chance
Wonder writes
Bubbly bites
Yonder yokes
Pressing pokes
Wordy will
Fashions feel
Charming choice
Pretty poise
Touching tell
Delight dwells
Story sad
Mulling mad
Grapple gist
Moving mist

Alliteration
Vines it were stole Adam’s joys;
thorns and thistles figured large.
Now, machines and even toys
fail to start, won’t hold a charge.
Oft harangued by so much ache,
pleasure’s fleeting, progress stalls.
Scarce we fix, another breaks;
endless toil stems from the fall.
Come thou, Father, make all right;
help us in this life we plea.
Burdens easy, yokes are light
when we find our rest in Thee.

Geese are
Not gifted
Spellers.
They write
Poems
In their eggs.
The letters
Cannot
Be separated
From their yokes.
In the court
Of the Blue King
Atrocious spelling
Is called “Goose-spelling.”
Turn of phrases
That cannot
Be separated
From its image.
Conversely Wicked spelling
Is known as Dragon-spelling.
Where quatrains
May spontaneously combust
Burning the finger
Of luckless scribes.

Saturate me in your love,
Like a flood,
Invade my barriers,
Induce, and then prevail,
With a flag of all nations,
Firm in your hands,
Bring back humility,
Reverence with admiration,
It’s just a matter of time,
Time,
Time,
Precious time,
Destroy the yokes,
Subdue the tyranny,
Bring the healing rain which washes galaxies,
Soften lifes foul smell with the aroma of your pure love,
Reveal to the now, your sweet sovereignty.
