reaching toward sunny yolks —
yellow kernels form...

Eggs break and yolks flow…
Broken hearts remain entombed:-
Yet, both are yolk-drained....

yolks dance in a pan
           toast swimming in currant jam
           coffee scents, how blest

A chicken farmer named Bob Coats
fed abnormal things down chickens’ throats.
No bad effects were visible
but Bob became miserable
when his chickens laid eggs minus yolks....

Soft fried eggs, buttery grits
Toast for dipping in,
Soft, sweet, fresh country egg yolks.
Cheese fried potatoes
Sausage and bacon
Coffee too
Umm…...

Eggs over easy with cheese
Seasoned with garlic,
Salt, basil, parsley and thyme
Liquid yolks for dipp’in
Toast in’s really fine
Eggs fit for
Kings!

A chicken farmer belittled native folks.
He said their beliefs were akin to jokes.
The natives put a curse on him
He laughed and called it a whim.
Until his chickens had eggs minus yolks....

My husband likes to start his day
in quite an injudicious way

He wolfs down cold coffee yogurt
topped off with frozen egg yolks 

And though he's never ever smoked
  ~ I think he'll die soon of a stroke...

There's cheese in my chair!
Shore hope I don't catch cholera... sheet!
My child will succumb to the bully
If I can't cook his egg yolks green.
Forgive my panic, but this is a BIG deal!

a topology of the letter-set (ydv)

yoga defines vacancy-yachting.....
dampening vacuum-yawns.....dictionaried-vaguenesses.....

yielding distorted vagrant-yarns.....
discussions virtually yearning detail.....

virtual yolks.....
disengage.....
vapor your daily ventures....

Anna set free all her black and white birds
As she spent her talking session with Folks
On red floor lay debris of stale grey shards
Little chicks of many colours from yolks
Aw, life is not going to be all hoax

O the ashes as they burn my back.
Relentlessly falling down a never-ending tomb,
Squeezing through the cracks of heavy a laden soul
My God
My Lord
To reign with thee I must suffer
Suffer heavy yolks that with thee I can bear


“...I can do all things through Christ who strengthens me!”...

And I'm cool with that.

Past point of needin
believin in
all things to all folks

now honin on ownin
perfect not neglect
gifts like egg yolks

puree and saute
scramble and maybe
some salsa today
(ok, probly)

glad i've made friends with some 
people not good what I am
but good what i'm not!

'cause we're all in it together....

What's with you all guys in
your spandex on spokes,
bearing down like demons 
on us poor ambulating folks?

It won't be so funny,
surely no little joke,
if you crash into us
we'll (both) look like 
broken egg-yolks

So, try to have courtesy
at least, show some respect
cause when you're 
travelling that fast,
who knows what to expect...

Why do some eggs crack easily?
Their yolks sitting nicely
Other eggs shatter
Their yolks splatter

Perfect eggs are best fried
The others should be scrambled
If in doubt, boiling could be tried
Three minute timer - soft boiled

In nature, cock and hen have mated
Inside the egg a chick is created
The hen lays her egg to brood 
The chick is born: the egg wasn't food...

I’d crack rotten “yolks” about eggheads driving old crates!

The components of this wry pun-laden entry relate to eggs and things associated with them.
Crack, rotten, eggheads, crates.
A crate can be a car in poor condition.

yellow yolks on the kitchen floor
brighten up the tile
sunflower seeds glow in the sun
for a country mile

dandelions with their bright heads
springing up all over the yard
sunshine magic on my front porch
enticing me to bard

rain coat slicker and yellow boots
shining in the rain’s little test
the only thing that would make today  more sweet
would be a taste of lemon zest....

Memories are being snipped like flowers.
Putting together shades that scent like oil.
Melt almost like yolks pleading on towers.
The work depicts the many threads of hours.
The solder between brushstrokes and bowers 
Fear behind the helmet till its touch spoil
Memories are being snipped like flowers.
Putting together shades that scent like oil.

Beyond the spectrum
Those broad beams of
Light the world at both
ends marvels the sight

Yolks of eggs sweetened
By sugars luciuous kiss
Fattened by the oils of
Coconut this
Perfection of glamerious
Delicible love
I log with knowing my
Need shall be quensed
I desire its satisfying
Quality
That those without shall
Envy
Those wanttng and needing
Shall beg
That my love for sweet company
Might have me gracious enough 
To share...

butterflies and bumblebees 
egg yolks on toast 
mustard fields and pots of gold 
sunflower seeds to roast 

ringlets fall lightly 
from a little girl so fair 
ornaments of golden wings 
fall softly from her hair
  
banana peels to slip and fall 
that would be no fun
dreaming of yellow submarines
happy face from the sun 
 
yellow is for warmth 
on a cold and windy day 
yellow through your window pane
helps sunshine come your way...

Quicksand routines yolks of same
Spinning into limbo hours lost
Unto fraught betwixt existence
Into frivolous twining gone

Stop the drowning and start the standing up
Amidst life’s frenzied stream
And be the “courageous” caught within its currents
Capturing simple moments and mere instances before they leave

Reign in the ticking and the tocking
Offer shelter to your needs
Reverse the course of river
To run freer and thus, parallel to your dreams...

The day I born my pride,
I was a jackass ;when nursing him,
I was a plague ; today he flies about,
All calls me mother of Nation.

Smile in pain of delivery,
Rejoice in tackling problem;
The ovulation of congratulation,
Deeps its roots in both.

When yolks  dare eagles’ beaks, they
Grow combs and crow; they prune their
Breasts and bristle up their wings,but
Rot is the egg in brood which for  fear
Of eagles’claws weeps not to be a chick....

the sunspots ensconced
behind howdy-do curtains
a cockcrow in lace

white watering can french blue
white sprouts of ivy deep green
unhackneyed eggs bright brown
the pale yellow sun flickers snow

and no one wears silk nightgowns
as knees fall, and wrinkles like weeds
are read on the backside of palms
that hurry the yolks and sizzle
the bacon, pour coffee into old cups

one for the geezer who grumps
but puckers up for his buttercup...
