Tap Poems

Early upper zuma jazz tap

He wo motto took a shield for the bettering of 
Boy bubble kev
Upper right flange damage severe ordinance requirement of lifeline preserve cartography blissed out

Gregory Hines session energetic time card!

TAP OUT

There is no easy way to just submit
No quiet way to shout “I F N quit”
Accept defeat and in your corner sit
What happened to the man who started it


Things always look darkest just before they turn totally black

Never trust a smiling cat

A paint can and brush sat on the bench
The sign read…GO AHEAD….I DARE YA

Just

Pink Flamingo

Pink hue flamingo it must be due to all
the carotenoid pigments feasted on 
algae and crustaceans
An elongated  neck spirals 
and filters such sensations
Sharing color is Okinawa salmon sushi,
bolster lobster and shrimp scrimp
Graceful qualifiers primp poised tropical dwellers
balancing effortlessly on one outstretched leg,
A ballerina’s pirouette in fuchsia tutus’
Statuesque stillness in shallow water
Rosette feathers flair flamboyance
Passionate

Tap!

Picture a room with a mirror-type wall
And two dozen women, with tap shoes on all.
In front is the teacher, who’s showing the moves
As all of the dancers get into their grooves.

Listen as taps rat-a-tat on the floor,
Increasing in tempo and hard to ignore.
In back are the newbies or those a bit shy,
All doing their best

Lost dexterity since fingers tap away at qwerty keyboard

Lost dexterity since fingers tap away at qwerty keyboard...

since being a student in grade, junior and high school
analogous to geometry proof how lack of use proves
quite aware that finger muscles atrophied
veering off on a tangent referencing contra dance moves 
starting with hands for four and ones (the 
couple closest to the stage) cross over, 
whereat

Blue Rain Dancing

grey clouds foreshadow 
blue rain tap dancing on roof
Sweet symphony song

Tap and Sink

The tap and the sink had a brawl
(the pair  being stuck to the wall)
the cold tap smashed the sink
with a crash and a plink;
serenely watched by the pee stall.

Interposed did tap’s buddy, drain,
(who held up the sink with a strain.)
Dear sink is in pieces;
her value decreases;
she once was so smart and urbane!

We Go So Fur

You’re so much artificial fur.
You, little bear, do not communicate,
not a word, not a single utterance.
Yet I speak to you, tap your nose,
pat your head - gently, of course.

I call you Mr Titch - yes, a name!
You have been at table with me,
sitting in a bar, I with others.
Should I have said we?
Yes, we were

LET'S TANGO

In a moment’s awareness, You gently stepped.
Held my hand, held my breath---
I took to resolve to dance with You,
In silence tap territories anew.

A galaxy of stars, passed the Milky Way
You held my hands as we sway.
My being no longer belongs to me.
You being in control, I cease to be.

As my eyes nestle in dreams,
You swing

I WILL TAP OUT TO LEAVE AND LIVE

*So many feeling rocking my mind* 
*Words lurking on my lips with expressions i cant find.*
*Who'd tell me how a fish got drowned in its own home*
*Why hating on a man and bent on taking his breath*
*Even if you choose the path of love,  thats no guarantee you won't be hated*
*Nothing  as cruel

Tap

Push breathe
I know it will hurt
I am aware of the pain 
And I will be aware as they push lava in my veins 
I am an innocent man 
I am a man of no contest 
Though I cannot read the words of the paper you hand to me 
I can read the faces of this

For Just Living In Glasgow

Jeff’s dull life began to glow,
His Jeff’s weight to around throw,
Great winds telling when to blow;
Tap asking to again flow…
Wasted years in Canada
And USA’s Nevada,
Though, there, had driven Prada
And chance had to love Sandra…

He’d wanted to try Norway
And Mum fought it with “No way?”
You’d better in Warm zones stay
And profit from Sunny Day…

Some years in

Gratitude For Running Water On Tap

Gratitude for running water on tap... 
and heat flowing with a snap

After shaving and showering,
yours truly feels winsome
though morose seeing
unwanted adipose "love handles"
inflating mine abdomen and tum
unanimously decided courtesy quorum
losing washboard stomach
finds me uncomfortably numb,
which middle age paunch
could never earn plaudits
from Heidi Klum,
no matter I would prefer
thine homebody missus
considerably more ho hum.

The spate of power

Banquet Before the Ceremony

With full apprecation of all thing concidered.
In respect to all that are involved..
Its defintion becomes it reason to exsist.
To grow from the seeds: which harvested
shall be fruit to nourish, and seed again for
it's future.
We those who see these things done, now
look to create and establish this day,
the means and ways to create.
The creation of this

Tap Shoes For Malaguena

Ceiling above my skull
beyond the clouds
above the space and time
as silk moire, wand of ivory,
shadows of memories
as God watches the cupboard,
angels preparing breakfast
for universal morning
cherubs poke and squitter
original English of young
glutton | cap of moire,
pecker ivory, gut strings
of a guitar whose wardrobe
projects a lovely tongue
of pears she prepares
her tap shoes for Malaguena
and all the night's
