Rose Wine

Roses smell of wine 
Drinking in a pink spring sun  
Soaking up the day 

Ratty cat

Ratty cat, ratty cat,
old and alone,
sitting on a wood pile,
making it his own..
Ratty cat, ratty cat,
listening and wondering.
Why has the sky grown dark?
Could that be thundering?
Ratty cat, ratty cat,
here comes the rain..
Fur now soaking wet thru an
orange matted mane..
Ratty cat, ratty cat,
drenched as can be.
Are you waiting there for
a free meal from me?

Soaking Up the Sounds

He wished it to be  full of sound.
round about the way successful
collaborations are done.
Fun: done: and Right.
Sought of like taking the featured
artist's position and elaborating on it.
People still love rock, urban 
contemporary grooves
and soulful bassey pieces.The stigma
around marriage
seems to cause discussion.
Is it good news? The two lovers united:
or one lover and one willingful participant.
Or

Soaking It Up

winter sunshine
on the meadow
all the horses
stretched out

Soaking Up the Sun

Saffron sun shone brightly, though it was a rainy day,
And varicolored umbrellas were up, in wild vivid array.
All shades were abloom, on the beautiful Dahlia Avenue,
And smiles were seen, in slanting rain of silvery hue!
Such mellow yellow gold, out of violet midnight dreams-
Like the heart of motley autumn, wearing spring greens!

The Words Sat Slowly Soaking

The discordant words sat long with her.
The words sat slowly soaking--
soaking in a marinade of thoughts,
thoughts seasoned with reason

In thoughts seasoned with reason,
the words were permeated and saturated--
permeated and saturated
with knowledge and wisdom

With knowledge and wisdom
the woman could finally respond.
She could respond with insight and intuition--
the insight and intuition of a sage woman

A sage woman

Soaking In the Love

She flopped herself off of her bike
Landing on soft sweet grass
The daisies giggled with relief
That she had not landed on them

I love the trees, I love the clouds,
I love you God, she said to the sky.
She was full of pure happiness.
The first spring day that had not rained.

Her mother called her, but her eyes were

Soaking Up Vitamin D

Sitting in a ray of Vitamin D
Sunlight magic God has given to me,
How much more comfortable can I be?
Holy healing light is totally free.

This makes me feel like singing with glee.
Steps to the house are barely twenty-three.
Sitting next to my majestic oak tree,
Surveying my forest and all I can see.

Butterfly floats by on heels of

Sitting In the Sun Soaking Up Rays

I’m sitting in the sun, soaking up rays
This is one of those good old-fashioned days
Dog barks at tractor coming up the road
Cat fascinated by a small brown toad
The warm barely-breeze can hardly be felt
Dangling in the sun on end of God’s belt.

Soaking

soaking wet trees, despondent
leaves hang depressingly low
steady rain water torture

It's Not Raining-But I'M Gettng Soaking Wet

It's not raining...but I'm getting soaking wet 
My head is sweating...because, there is something...I can not forget
My baby's leaving me...and my life is filled with sorrows 
Just knowing, that I won't be seeing her...in all of my tomorrow's

It's not raining...but dripping off my nose 
Are drips of teardrops...flowing, just like a river flows 
My baby's

Soaking Up

the last few rays
of summer bliss
