Volcano Run part 3 - Escaping the Ashfall

Part three

Once we were home, the bikes secure
we sealed the clubhouse, best we could
waiting for the ash to stop 
but fearing that it never would,

All the TV news was dismal;
all predicting different things,
each with warnings dire and dreadful
of the dangers ashfall brings.

I dug out pairs of coveralls
and painter's masks for us to wear,
and cartons of

Mid Summer Blues

we thought we were ready
till the unexpected fell upon us

such high expectations
for fun and adventure
plans for get-aways
excursions and discoveries

the days and weeks go by
another summer slips away

Dangle A Backdrop

Fountains sprinkle summer city rising steam spiral, 
wet dispersed and raucous shrieks from children,
pavements, streets. lanes, byways imbued,
with that June to September jubilance,
jovial spirit goes beyond the urban confines yet included,
the riot of revelry induced by that vim incited by this season,
those are season smart relish the fragility of blissfulness,
it vaporises, vanishes, veers into segments

Vacation

We're going on vacation 
Words innocent and pure
Visions of sun and beaches 
Are conjured up for sure

The marketers are genius
At portraying family bliss
A carefree family skipping
Through waves not to be missed

But just below the surface 
Lurk undertones of woe
The preparations necessary
Belay the surface glow

The focus turns to prepping
The job, the house the yard
The feeding of the pets
The domicile

MISTY Sea Day

I love the blue water,
as I am rocked to sleep.
The salt air fills my soul,
as I dream far away.
I am awakening,
to a misty sea day.

Quartzite Rock

l see a bridge, it's a river of glass
on roof tops high, and dense  views of grass
it floats  up above, in clouds of the sky
how is it done ? l  keep wondering why

its a place  now of wonder, that visitors go
a UNESCO forest, that millions flow
a vision of beauty and peace

Poor Lester

Lester Lizard got home from vacation
where he had met a Haitian Crustacean
they got along great
till they tried to mate
reptile dysfunction leads to frustration

spirits revived

a week by the seaside is all that you need to revive your spirits 

Vacay

I have so many tongue lacerations
Because I bite it on the daily
My voice is on vacation 
And my anger is on a yacht sailing 
My temper is sun tanning 
All while it's heart is failing 
My resentment is roasting in a bonfire 
So with everything in me I am yelling 

Thank you Jesus 
For my

Outside Viewing

As I sat on the patio
The Airplanes are passing by
high in the Sky
Birds are flying high
The wind is blowing periodically
The weather is humid
Peaceful moments again
A great scenery within
Moments of relaxation
From all of the chaos
A renewal of concentration
Thinking of a great vacation.


NOTE: Sometimes we just need that peace of mind from all of the chaos.

Vacation State Florida Tribute

Hip to a choice life
green flags and emerald waves,
that vacation state.

Waiting for the call

Waiting for the call

Time is the coin of life
Spend it wisely

Who's to blame?
Now they know your game.
Ain't it strange
That we need to be framed.

We need to escape
To a house by the sea
To get away from the
The other you and me
To be free

It's easy to say
Not so easy to see

Waiting for the call

Summer

Longer days
vacation stays
packed beaches
eating peaches

sudden showers
picking flowers
water slides
carnival rides

wearing shorts
playing sports
snow cones
skipping stones

riding bikes
long hikes
swimming pool
staying cool.

Here To Far Away

Do you believe me?
I believe!
Then they flew away
On a First Class PAL Airline to meet June.
Will there be difficulties?
It's all in our shoulders!
What if I fall asleep?
I will catch you!
What should I take on the road?
Favorite outfit
And a few gadget for happiness.
I want to take tenderness.
Take it with you.
And the bright glimpses of warm dawn
Take
