Star Fruit Poems | Examples


Drawdy Pointe

Drawdy Pointe

Flyaway frond hairs wear the breeze
where the green palm nods her head,
and the pelican post's lone occupant
is surveying the fisherman’s empty line.
Across the water in the yellow yard,
a gypsy on loan from Key West,
the alpaca grows wool, the donkey brays, 
and the happy chickens nest.
Quiet and peaceful, grasses silently slip,
adrift on canals from the sea;
the star fruit falling across the fence
is golden and perfectly sweet.
I have heard said that island time
never checks the hands of a clock,
just simply wafts by from daylight to dark
as we sit in our chairs on the dock.

A Floating Market On the River

Floating  Market on the River

A Thailand tradition 
Large sun umbrellas 
And boat roofs or hoods
And Asian conical hats
A bucket of cracked brown egg shells 

A grandma quickly whips up 
Egg, oyster and fresh, crisp bean sprout
In rice flour batter

Raw and cooked food
Vendors sell garden produce 

And cooked food
Prepared right before one’s eyes  
Plantain, banana, bean sprouts 
Breadfruit 
Coconut sugar, syrup and fresh coconut 
Poof- a cloud of smoke surround the cook

Another vendor grills meat on skewers  
She makes chicken, liver and sticky rice

Tart and sweet star fruit

Steamed sticky rice, coconut milk , sugar and banana inside its leaf
A sweet Thailand tamale 

A live band: saxophonist, keyboardist and vocalist plays for donations

Fried quell egg
Fresh and dried spices 
Fresh and dried sea food: shrimp, fish 
Grilled scallop
Cooked noodles
Cooked squid, prawn, crab and fish 
Green papaya salad
Boat brewed coffee
Soda pop
Distilled water 
Tea
Beer 
Blood cake 
Pork 
Rice noodles

An Experiment...

.... for your eyes ....

A menu for lusciously delicious lips...
Bread sticks and creamy dips,
Cold, warm, hot on your tongue.
Delicate cherries, can't eat just one.
Exquisite, dew filled honey in the sun...
Fragrant and ripe, skin on the melons.
Grappling the grapes, little balls of wine,
Hands cupped to my face, I take you...
In,
Juggling faith, love, lust and sin...
Knowing, at the table as I came again.
Liiiiick. Said the kitten to the star fruit...
Moan for me...mmmmm
Nature slips between my lips,
Opening wide and closed are my eyes,
Pressing the button... whip cream surprise!
Quivering now, champagne in a glass...
Release of pressure in a bubbling bath,
Swallowing slowly to make it last.
Taste intoxication, erotic exploration,
Uttering sounds of pleasure...
Velvety treasure filled liqueurs.
When it rains I hope it pours,
Xtreme delight, ..fingers food.., and candle light,
Your Way.
Zest of Life! It's a buffet!
