A ROAST TO THE TOASTER

ROAST TO THE TOASTER
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
toaster, warmth you bring,
golden crusts greet morning light,
sunrise in my hand.

slots are welcoming
embrace bread with gentleness,
toasting it with ease.

each slice meets your heat,
a transformation occurs,
soft to crisp delight..

you're more than a tool,
symbol of comfort, routine,
part of daily life.

here's to you, toaster.
may your coils always glow bright,
filled with a slice white.

Gotcha You Too ?

Tingly skies full of surprise oh how I love when with surmise 
the little rascal aims his dart as if it were, poetic art !

Cupid found me and turned me into mush 
when he walks by I suddenly begin to blush ! 
Cupid has my number and when he rings my bell 
I feel all sugar coated, dipped in love's pell-mell 

Cupid God of desire sets his darts on fire 
toasting hearts and filling them with great desire 
Cupid loves to match us heart to heart  
fitting us together we will never part  

Cupid isn't stupid in fact he's very smart 
he loves people and calls everyone,  "sweetheart"
Cupid knows his arrows are extra-extra hot   
so when it comes to love he always hits the spot.     

When cupid's arrow aims for you, there isn't much that you can do !

Chaotic Thoughts

I think a lot in my head 
I wish I could just go to bed 
Blinded by thoughts and emotions 
The seas of thunder and errosion
The crickets seep into the ears 
Blinded by the emotional tears 
My brain is exhausted and toasting 
My head spinning like it’s roasting 
These thoughts I can’t stop
Accelerating to the very top
My patience for this is wearing thin 
I itch and peal my skin 
I want to get out of this horrid body 
Dragged through despair becoming knotty
Though I hate living in this flesh 
I also hate my intrusive mesh
Drowning in my own Delusion 
Nothing can keep up my illusion 
The smiles are all fake 
At any moment I might break

Fit In

the crowd you hang with
is ‘sophisticated’
everyone sporting 
new duds
new cars
new women in bars
my make-do threads
barely seem decent

      you said I had to change
      as I don’t fit in

your friends toasting 
the roasting
of competitors 
I bore you with 
my interests
my needs
my walks in parks
paths for self-doubt

     you said I had to change
     as I don’t fit in

you said I had to change
my thoughts
my ways
if I wanted to win
in the relationship
to impress, dazzle
people I didn’t know
or wanted to know

     you said I had to change
     'cause I don’t belong

yes, I have changed
a new dawn
a new dream
I no longer need you
to validate me
I now fit in 
with myself

     you said 
     I had to change

be as it may
I hate to burst 
your lone 
fragile bubble
but now

     YOU don’t fit in
     as I have changed

Getting thangs 2-gather

Gold per ounce the weight of
the trophy
Sake denounced the intent of
The Songbird
Might love pronounce me in
announcement
Closer than my goals
to achievement 
Inspiration inspire
to such elevations
To make envy those
who opposed me
Inspiration quiet my foes
Into shame
Might they stand in such
Awe of me
Inspiration make my way
Clear, unopposed I might
Sooth my way clear
Might I stand to thank
thee
Inspiration make me
Worship thee


The story
He seemed to gain, that he would spend in such for quality 
Paired, both with the same purpose. Such inclusion to create
the greatest entity. The sounds of harmonic voices. Soothing
Melonic tones. Orchestrated perfections. Lyrics of collaborated tones! 

Temperer de Adagio
Sweet bassy Grooves. 
Platinum Panties
On the right song
Like a good woman
Something Really Special! 
Toasting perfection a smooth
Coupled togetherness
Horns and strings and all sorts
Of Polite and Courteous thangs! 
When the wood wins!

A New Years Wish for East the Beast and the West Unblessed

  Whether whiskey or water
    What should it matter

  The point is we oughta
    be toasting each other

  Though the East is a Beast
    and the West is unblessed …

  May we this year refrain
    from inflicting such pain 

  Turn to gentler pursuits
    find for war substitutes

With Dad, and with Mum

Camping is fun
With dad and with mum
Collecting wood for the fire and toasting marshmallows, yum!

I raced with my dad and cheering was mum
Running the fastest, I ever have run
Winning first place I'm so happy, and shout out that I won!

Hello moon, goodbye sun
Stars fill the sky and daylight is done
It's the last night of our trip, it has been my favourite one 

Camping is fun
I love spending time here 
I love my dad and my mum

Sweet Dreams

All my dreams of you are sweet
When missing you I press repeat
And once again we're in the park
Or sharing kisses in the dark
Silhouettes cast in moonlight 
Love and passion, out of sight 
Or on the beach taking a swim
Down in the Caribbean 
Or holding hands out for a walk
While toasting Paris as we talk
Or playing music up on stage
Adoring fans fully engaged
I dream about you night and day
Asleep, awake, in every way
Most are vivid, some are not
Either way they hit the spot
The place I have inside my heart
That longs for you when we're apart

At time's end

Longing for the mountains
Captured by the sea
Pining for the lover
That's waiting for me
There's sunshine on the rise
Beyond the last storm
Whisky's in the bottle
Bedrooms have been warmed

Saturday's for freedom
Friday's in repair
Families have moved on
To the county fair
There be hot dogs and coke
Cotton candy too
At the end of the day
Fireworks fade from view

Summer's soon for ending
Nature's change is swift
People start making moves
As the landscapes shift
Some go for holidays
Some go to escape
Most put it down to luck
Others claim it's fate

Mountains last for ages
Seas end at the shore
Time is of the essence
Which we can't ignore
We are just passing through
Like those river bends
I will have a whisky
Toasting long gone friends

Memories

Memories

I remember the coal fire
Crackling and flickering
Toasting bread as well as feet

I remember the steam Train
Huffing and puffing
Steam and smoke engulfing us all

I remember music, the Mersey beat
Beatles and The yellow submarine
Hipsters and Bell-bottoms
I remember it all

Memories of Music
Memories of fun
Memories of Life now long gone

toast and bread

bread
yeasty delicious
mixing rising baking
soft loaf hard sliced
toasting browning buttering

shimmering seaside 
bodies toasting on hot beach 
suns heat leaves a mark

RIP Erich Anderson And Rob Dier

Woodsman on a prowl 
Sneaking around like an owl 
Noticing innocents getting a fright 
Watchman you are a good knight 
Defending partiers in a plight 
Battling a monster in a murderous fight
Erich you guarded them all 
Despite the rainfall 
Where thunder clapped 
Lightning snapped 
Spotlighting your heroic stage 
Heralded by the girls maturing in age 
Until your deadly scripted page 
As we reflect surrounded by campfire mist 
Who should be on the angelic list 
Mr. Anderson may not have received Brad Clooney fame 
But we knew your look maybe not name
Reminded the rat was Ben 
While the chopping mall no longer needed Ken 
RIP mechanical hiking buddy 
Protecting those from evil not really funny 
Make it sunny 
Heavens will be brighter 
Since you are now a soulful fighter 
We all down here 
Are in it for the scream and cheer 
Toasting Rob Dier 
With a corkscrew and beer

another day

mountains tumble
across the horizon 
twisting the last splinters 
of warmth
through heavy hanging 
gray soup 
listless lifeless 
endless sigh
dogs roll over
mown grass
clinking ice 
gentle laughter
fluttering chimes
cool breeze
sweet pungent earth 
enlivens lungs 
ocean cracks 
spills sheets
steams stainless barbeque 
sizzles fire pit 
douses tiki torches
lettuce, tomatoes, chips 
condiments 
march back inside
under the eaves
gulping rare air
until it freezes
behind the window
white pellets pelt
big red umbrella
guarding the feast
burgers melting cheese
buns toasting 
in formation 
lining the grate
storm sweeps over
collective gasp
tables towel off
wet dogs play
music  marries
dinner mirth
dancing flames
lick black velvet
Friday swells
into sleep-in Saturday 
while weaver weaves
another day
