Sundaes Poems

Houston, we have a lollipop 
Peppermint Patty is outside the airlock
The lemon drops are handy and dandy
Secure as Loony tunes on the moon
Tasty as caramel popcorn parties
The Eagle has landed 
That's one small step for man
And one giant leap for...Read More

Home is where the heart is, home is where the love is
Love's the greatest emotion known, that ain't no myth
Surpasses ice cream sundaes
Or gloomy bloody Mondays
Home is the cuddliest place to sit with a naked nymph

Marshmallow sundaes, painted in acrylics 
radiate color of tulips in yellow spring sun.
To breeze silver moonbeam, fate favorable.

But for some, its sledging on a fiery anvil,
pumelled and pounded in smouldering coal.
blackened in orange flames, rasping for air
flames of inferno, hammers...Read More

Summers are here,
It's time for cool wear.

Juices, soft drinks, milk shakes all we can drink,
Ice cream and sundaes will make your heart sink!

Pools and water parks, oh so cool,
Summers are the golden rule!.

     Happy Summers.........Read More

She was a rainbow faerie 
in a butterfly world.
Where faeries were shunned
Considered gossips, thieves,
Ignored, pulled down, 
jeered at 
due to the butterflies’ preconceived notions
and belief in antiquated myths 

They had grown up thinking their rights
were the only ones that mattered.
They...Read More

Real love takes up residence deeply in the heart.
Two lucky ones, 
are focused in, not out,
at the start.
From the inside can't see the outside,
so it makes no difference.
Especially to men, who can get away,
with a double chin, beer bellies, and...Read More

A LOT OF NONSENSE

I was sitting in my room,
Looking at the stars,
When all of a sudden,
I thought I saw Mars,
I went out of the house,
And looked all around,
I got into my rocket ship,
Straight off the ground.


Milky Way Dairy, 
Here I...Read More

As I was walking swiftly
Just to reach Bajoga early
To see what a hot birthday
Will be chucked in the day
Of 27th of the october,
I collided with a creature
Seemingly so calm in nature
And so educated by sanity
With no signs of insanity
With soft...Read More

Schwegmann, Winn Dixie, the Superstore and more
Customer service was instilled indeed in you for sure
You hungry so you pull up in the drive thru
Welcome to McDonald's, how may I help you?

Baskins Robbins, oh so sweet
Brownie sundaes I love to eat
Easy...Read More

cherries cluster in their cliques —
bright and plump on crystal plates,

           maraschinos bleached and dyed

It's Summer...a hot, humid day.
We go outdoors, swim, heat allay.
    Plan dinner to grill,
    new recipe will
make family happy, hooray!

Come dinner time, I've lost my glow.
I gather the food really slow...

Short weekends and long weekdays
School’s out then it’s onto résumés and workdays
Mondays dragging on through to Fridays
Long commutes on highways, subways and tramways 
Toiling for okays, some praise and hopefully a raise

Soirees and negligees for Saturdays
Aspiring to bouquets so enchanting...Read More

I stood before the mirror, one last check,
a quick inspection, then head off to town,
silver kipper tie around the neck,
shirt of green, sports jacket of light brown.
Platform shoes on, I boogie down the street,
a first date to look forward to...Read More

What is Sweetness 
  but sugar 
  in a lump or a cube?

Or perhaps honey
  flowing freely,
  unrestricted by a tube.

Ah, forget not chocolate,
  Be it white or be it dark;
  Nor syrup oozing

I remember angles
lots of angles
shoulders, elbows, jaw
and Old Spice.
I remember a voice like gravel
angular, uneven, an instantly soothing
like water spilling over rocks.
I remember a well worn Yankee cap
and sudsy beer, lots of it
the ensuing brawl with Tess
always capped with laughter.
I...Read More

I've been thinking of a whole lot
None of the same old thoughts 
Never has it been about any jewelery or a gold watch
And the same could be said for having my soul lost


I'm not going to ramble on
Talk about babylon
Or...Read More

Three sisters ate three
sundaes on three Sundays on
Three Sisters' summits.

Faith climbed "Faith," Hope climbed
"Hope," and Charity climbed "Faith,"
"Hope," and "Charity."

Sisters, Oregon Sisters

Love unexpectedly came,
pulled up and swung open the door
Took me on a thrill ride,
and I'm loving every moment of it
Passion autobahn,
no speed dating restrictions
Scenic route of the heart landscape,
shifting gears with the love joystick
It's a thrill ride,
such a rapid romantic...Read More

I've started my stand-by diet: a few different fruits each day,
and having repeated it time and again, I feel qualified to say
apples, unless of a rare and crisp nature, are mushy and generally gross.
Halfway into the core of one, I'm...Read More

What is love

What is love,
it is …

the good and the bad,
sharing, learning, comforting,
no sides, no boundaries,
understanding, 
even if you don't, 
arms open...wide,
mind open...wider,
heart always accepting that
not everything is easy,
the bed of roses comes with thorns,
but you endure,
scars will show, 
yet...Read More

Jam roly poly, treacle sponge
And sticky toffee pudding head the top of my list
But apple pie, rhubarb crumble
Or a decent cheesecake are hard to resist

Banana splits, eclairs or brownies
Dumplings, nougat, cheese board or mousse
Crème brûlée.  Fruit cocktail.  Yoghurt
Serve...Read More

Picture a Day


There are pictures of days
I have no memory of,

baby pictures….
could be anybody…

around eighth grade…
ahh, could be me…

High School graduation…
OH YEAH!!!   ME.

19 years old…in uniform…
looking way too young…

Those candid shots…
“now turn to the left”

Robin Thicke's bedroom voice reminds me of you
And I realize there were good times
When you spoke to me in low tones
Deep low tones
And I must admit 
that every time
I hear Robin Thicke...
I smile and get tingly all over

You were a...Read More
