Fresh out of high school,
strong in body but dense in the head.
I worked as a furniture mover
the company owned by a friend.
One time, him and I worked twenty hours straight
at 5 bucks/per, I felt like Tony Montana in Scarface.
Afterwords, I was invited to a speakeasy
to play a little afterhours poker.
Well, you know the rest
I was busted in less than an hour.
but the beer was flowing for free.
My friend and boss
won most of my hard-earned money.
Although I didn't have a license
he let me drive his sweet olds '88 home.
Smokey eyed and flat busted
I still felt like a sparkling pimp.

Summer’s Sparkling Journey
Swinging, sideways we two, in a striped hammock.
Green, grand,leaves that grinned, engraving our love on
summer’s clock.
Hearts, your hands, holding our summer’s warm heaven.
Wishing, wanting, now, to be, excited and thirteen again.
Graceful,gravel beneath our soft feet at eve.
Mr. Moon's magical, romantic secret, mystery,
That desirous, tan glow on your face, ever melodically sweet.
Delicious, delightful, lips that ever so full, did softly meet.
Secretly, did, we, like Romeo and Juliet, did in barefoot feet,
Meet so soft.
Sparking stars, observed us, under moon glass, kiss under stars,
aloft!

Oh, my heart has divine, samba-musical, dream treats,
I sit here tapping in golden shod, tanned, perfumed feet.
Unwilling to share my dreams, lest they from me, disappear,
Dreams are my guiding lights by which my poetry to steer.
These globes hold my snow-glistening mountaintops to glide,
Hope-filled crystal balls, deepest wishes, reside and sleep inside.
Perchance on a warm beach all tanned, with doves soaring above,
Sipping crushed, cold mango-ice, and without trying, came my love!

I look out of the window
and I am captured
by the gleaming grass
during the night
there was a heavy dew
now the world sparkles
precious jewels dot
bringing new life
to the land
I take a handful
but it jut melts
somethings
are better
to being
admired
from afar like
jewels of dew

Butterfly
Oh little lovely butterfly
Look at me with sparkling eye
Crossing fields in swift cool breeze
Flying over beneath the trees
I can see you around me fly
Look at me with sparkling eye
Touching the flowers with a bliss
Soft petals of flowers give you a kiss
Where are you ? Here am I
Look at me with sparkling eye
Fly like birds ascends descends
Children catch you in their hands
Who will tell me ?Where you die ?
Look at me with sparkling eye
White blue yellow black and brown
All your colors in French, Greek town
Every one love you, never feel shy
Look at me with sparkling eye

In our haste to pack, we left winter behind
Easy to forget with thoughts of paradise filling our minds
As we depart from the plane we are met with the warmth of the sun
Relaxation has surely taken over leading to a week of endless fun
Strolling on the beach hand and hand
Our feet are greeted by the sparkling sand
As day turns to night a romantic dinner at sea awaits
A perfect evening for love we need to create
Dolphins glide by across the pristine turquoise ocean
All in sync with their effortless motion
The silence in the air is broken as a mariachi band starts to play
What a pleasure to be part of such a wonderful day

Day 1
Don’t forget the coffee grinder Hon!
Freshly ground coffee greets morning sun!
I need to bring more than one bag Mom.
Matching outfits are the total bomb!
Day 2
Oh! I can’t find my headphones Mommy!
Did you pack them in your case Tommy?
I set my purple case by the door.
It’s still sitting there I’m almost sure.
Day 3
This place is lame. There’s nothing to do.
Sand is everywhere and all over you!
Mom! There’s a bug crawling on the floor!
Please, please, please, throw it outside the door!
Day 4
Oh Mother, I’m so bored with the beach.
The shopping mall is not far from reach.
Please Mom, will you cook a hamburger?
Nothing here but fresh fish to order.
Day 5
Mother’s vacation a total workout.
Exhausted, she wanted to shout.
Mother sat with her head in her hands.
Tell her again about sparkling sands!

Like a sparkling Roman candle –
Red beardtongue dots the canyon.
Oh, what handsome bugles!
That decorate the trail along
Where pebbles were brushed aside
And sway with the breeze –
Not to elicit surprise
But to befriend the greenery.

sparkling joy
our new school district wide mission statement
so not just for one school
for all forty-two schools
I LOVE IT!
my soul sister also LOVES it!
so many of our co-workers wear their sparkling joy t-shirts
with angry faces
and downcast eyes
spreading misery wherever they go
Sparkling joy to no one
I had hoped those shirts might be magical I said to my soul sister.
I know, she agreed.
I know.

With the last glimmer of sunset
When the shadows chase the light
As the rivers flow back into the skies
Dotted with silver specks, twinkling
In time with the clock ticking by
Onto a dark drape stretched across
This beautiful earths face!
The arrival of the night a spectacular sight
Cicadas and crickets welcome her
With their ceremonious band
And street lights blink to get
A better view from their stands!
Starry, starry nights send
The sky into raptures
The sparkling stars
Exploding like foaming wine!
