zig-zag hiking through the wild

When those you do treat less 
Give no chance to be depressed 
Bow not in lovely mess!...

The best wigs are on dandelions.
Zig-zag leaves can make a crown.
The lion is the yellow flower,
and it will leave behind... 
a pom-pom for a clown.

Bright in colour
A glory of love
Zig-zag edges of the petals
A symbol of life-long worry of a mother
Layers of petals 
A symbol of the eternal love of a mother...

On the zig zag zenith
we will polarize
the camps between us
who don't realize
the gullible draft
of the patient soul
complacent idols
we will leave  unwhole....

snow blankets the ground
crystal stars melt together
form a field of white 
in the silence of winter
paw prints trace a zig-zag path

                                      low constant rumble
                                 ignorant breath of the night -
                                       lightning formations...

Pond Across The Road


How brazen the turtle called painted!
His friends watched in horror! then feinted!
Zag that way! Zig here!
Missed the truck that hauls beer!
A miracle! they called him! then sainted!...

Have you found a snake’s rattle while digging?
I did once.
I carefully covered it back up too.
As soon as I saw the zig zag of the fat one’s skin.
Thanking God I had uncovered this end rather than the other one....

God 
was with the squirrel,
made it a golden path 
the perfect zig and zag,
a whisper to stop-
a whisper to go-
a shout to sprint- 
for the glory hole-

God 
was with the squirrel,
but forgot about the coon-...

Kept silenced and away from many
Under a clear glass for only him to see
Daring to jump through the clear sheet
Zig-zag his way to liberation
Atone himself from the darkness inside
Invite in the light he wants to live in...

I began to choke cough and gag
I think I let the Hot Kitty Rancid Milk out the bag
My friend approached me in anger
She should never tell such things like that to a stranger
I ran her gossip in and out of a crowd in a full zig-zag...

A corner lifted
Like today's dawn 
Bright burnt redness
The goblin smiled.

A lip curved
Like today's moon 
Cookie cut darkness
The goblin smiled.

A teeth peeped 
Like today's lightening,
Zig zag whiteness
The goblin smiled....

stir distant rumbles

  zig zag wink heat lightning's zaps--

    sheets of rain scream down

Zig-zag mountain tips lay against the sky, marigold true.
They are sleeping giants waiting for the dawn.
As golden light seeps through
The blazing sun wakes adagio with a yawn.
Sun rays begin to unrest the peaks; a new day is in spawn....

The piglet is a baby pig
As far as it appears
The wiglet is a tiny wig
That fits on tiny ears
The ziglet is a little zig
But only when it veers.

There is a monkey
who is very funky.
He dances all day long
to a long song,
and a big wig
that can zag and zig.
Once he even danced with a big pig
with a rig!
When the day is over, he goes to bed
with a mug on his head.

It was yesterday 
The brown grass was seen
Waking in the morn
The scene was different

Joe  Ann looked outside
A sudden change seen
The wind was blowing
The snow was dancing

Making the snow move
In a zig zag form
The snowflakes dancing
In the empty field...

darling multifaceted crystal butterfly
natural prism causing light to zing and zag
I revere you and honor your pure beauty
as you have probably guessed by now
cousins will be here today
I am tucking you away
in your protective pouch of black velvet
do not make a sound okay?...
