Watery Thoughts
Water dripping from the faucet
I wish to tap in to it and flow
Like red river from indigo soul
Writing something that grows
Like a seed esteemed and springing
In each reader who is a believer
And even those who are deceivers
A word so good one salivates
A poem so inspiring it breaks chains
Chains of doubt
Chains of caste
Chains of

Watery
clouds on lake drifting
in the rose forever days
silver glide, geese sun
in puff clouds swimming
until the soaking downpour
red blooms cried for joy

Watery
If life were an ocean,
My loved ones would be the waves
That appear before me and leave.
If life were a river,
My loved ones would be the lake,
And even though we separate,
We’ll always be connected to each other.
If life were simply water,
My loved ones would be the land,
In which we will always meet again and again.

Simple Watery Freeze
Eutectic water ice with a time-extending elixir,
Casting a trivial covering of aqueous freezing.
In the puncture spirits of an exquisite spritzer,
The Esophagus of a beat glass, sublimating.
Casting a trivial covering of aqueous freezing,
Wadded ash fills slander odious minds' breath.
The Esophagus of a beat glass, sublimating,
Vast flows of roses were built by the breadth.
Wadded ash

A Place of Rest
The language of the watery water
I have been made to understand
In his arms I find solace
His compound is my place of rest
Each time my can can no longer can
Each day my spirit, soul and body can longer cope
Each moment my womanhood is shown the activities of hell
With open arms, I am always

Beautiful Salty Moving Watery Seas
Coral reefs
Moisten sweet peace
Release those the salty
Out in the open seas,
on the ponds, lakes, rivers be
waves of motions
The moon allows and tremblers
A wave says high
rocking by sights of moisten drifts
Out in the open seas,
rocks the water waving breeze
Gravity contains us
Roll on streams of moving waters roll!

Musical sounds for a nap,
She succumbs to sleep.

Watery Workout
Flippers up
Flippers down
Wave those flippers
All around
Swish your tail
From side to side
Create a wake
A water slide
Take a plunge
Dive down deep
Your body propelled
As up you leap
Hey, Sea Lion
Clap your hands
When you perform
You grandstand*
*To grandstand means to 'ham it up'

A Watery World

Watery Phases
Look high to the hills to see peaks of icy water laden tops
Water is flowing downwards into winding streams
The permeation of ponds, lakes, rivers and the mighty seas
Thus a supply-chain like feed supplying all watery needs
The Sun's fierce heat induces water evaporation
A dark daunting nimbostratus starts hovering
A mystical misty moist cloud of condensation
that produces many

Watery Violin
I saw you grin, oh Fossegrim,
when by your waterfall...
I was entranced, oh Fossegrim
and that's not only all.
You taught me tunes, oh Fossegrim,
on your watery violin!
Teach me more, oh Fossegrim,
and I will pay you well.
I need to play as good as you,
and not play an awful din.
I want to play as you do play
upon your

Watery Nonsense
One time a stickleback
Asked a tadpole what’s the craic
He replied there’s nothin’ doing
It’s just the water I was viewing
So he slurped a glass of gin
And let the stickleback begin
To swim upside down in loops
Until his eyes began to droop
I’m becoming very dizzy
Feels like the Mississippi
The stickleback then stopped
The tadpole’s eyes had nearly popped
The stickleback said

Watery Eyes
The sound of cars off in the distance
reminded me of how fast
this journey we are on
can be;
the water flowing beside me
told another tale
of the calm, relaxing time
of days now gone...
open prairie overlooked by bright blue sky,
wild grain waving to and fro,
calming silence that could only be broken
by the sound of thundering herds,
or the raging storms
