Slappy Poems

Trefoil

...In the quiet hush of dawn’s first light, hussily strewn, 
as oil painting life,
exactly whispers secrets of easy night, 
spreading open dews, slappy cold earthy maw, 
bubbling crude, trefoil in t...

...I read a poem of Hank’s and something caught me happy
Suddenly my own poem came flipping out of my mind.

Call Me Slip Shod

...Call me careless, slip shod if you dare
I throw myself onto a wet slip and slide without a care. 
I am slipping, dipping, and dripping, on a slip slappy day. 
A slipped disc? No worries. Cowslip m...

Snappy T

Happy,  tappy and zappy as a rappy dappy  me.

Walking My Tiger Home

...Walking my tiger home...
As I do after we roam...the countryside where we play and hide
I sometimes stare at his stripes of orange and black...

...I'm just glad that dreams I have
To keep me sane and happy,
As I walk a song inside
Keeps me from geting slappy....
