As Clean as a Whistle

...As Clean as a Whistle

The park is a dance of colour
as leaves pirouette and waltz
around brazen, undressed trees.
November, and the sun sits weakly
even rather streakily in the sky
while I fo...

Stench

...Dark red, luscious apples felled from her own tree long ago
Under the beaming sun plummeted with a soft, aching blow

The sweat drips and plops, scruple over a furrowed brow
Upon the discovery of...

The Girl I Used To Be

...I look down now
And I can just barely see
The thin, pale white lines
From the girl I used to be

The girl who’s not so far gone
Not as dead as you think
But instead of watching skin bleed
She...

Lucy the Saint Bernard - Crossing the Rainbow Bridge

...Lucy’s earthly journey ended
and she is now in Pet Heaven,
just a mere five years old, but she left a hole the size of the Grand Canyon
in the heart of a blue-eyed earth angel.

Karyn waited at ...

Twas the Night Before Christmas

...Twas the night before Christmas late dinner.
Table set, waiting for Conner, a beginner.
Wondering which turkey will be a winner.
Wild round neighborhood, non any thinner.

Turkeys saw the peacef...

The Daily Routine

...It all sparks off
With the mention of the park
Her white tail twirling
Relishing the renewal 
Of her communion with nature
Her contact with her ancestral past

Then off to the park in the car
...

Trick or Treat

...Halloween is time to go scaring.
In costumes, you go about wearing;
then knock on some doors,
with yelps, hoots, and roars;
sweet candies reward for your daring!

If candies aren’t coming your ...

autumn

...
autumnal colors
close neighboring planet skies
equinox sunsets

red hue leaves tussle
woodchuck pops from its burrow
dog sniff, yelps in pain

quiver across limbs
perching mockingbird's mi...

Amys Poltergeist

...Vengeful spirits are the most powerful ghosts
the ghost story reader says to the slumber party girls.
Amy's poltergeist gets angry and pulls a curtain down
It lands on the dog’s head
The dog yelp...

Rhythms of the Night

...
The rhythms of the night
Sounds of a dark symphony
A mysterious cacophony
Sends chill up and down the spine
Shadows chase the light of a full moon
Across meadow and forest green
No stranger t...

The battled mind

...Once again the battle mind field commences
Bombarded with thoughts, surrounding with fences 

Not damaged by a weapon of cast 
But overpowered by an incident from the past 

Waves of emotions r...

kingdoms notes

...You stole my far away kingdom
didn't say what for?
Said I didn't have the jurisdiction 
to grapple my own crown

The ice resurrects steely bacteria 
will our antibiotics endure?


I feel all...

Our Brix -- Love Jones Contest

...Blessed with a big hunk of love.
He protects us, entertains us, obeys us (and disobeys us when he really feels the need).
Individually, he has stolen the heart of every member of this family with h...

Those In Need

...Physical pain,
Arms slain,
Drunk haze,
Music faze,
Drug use, 
Grab the noose,
Put it back,
Back track,
Seek advice, 
Friends are nice,
Whoever helps,
But never yelps,
Do this, do that,
O...
