Collage

Nature's tapestry
diversity reflected
in a pond's mirror.

Breakfast

Soft yellow centers
smile while steeped tea's whispering
muffins, marmalade.

Beerfest

The gents in the pub are no fools,
They'd rather sip malt that wear jewels,
For gems are no match
To an Anheuser's batch
Of Irish style, pale ale, O'Douls!

Beach Stones Sonata

Rock forms reigning in the sea
Cast semiprecious imprints
As beach stones bathe and gleam.

Feldspar glitter glows gently
Over mica crystalline
As rock forms reign in the sea.

Pebbles play in the sea
Leave sand-filled footprints
As beach stones bathe and gleam.

Stones and bones wade free
Dancing cold-skinned past
Rock forms reigning in the sea.

Brownstone bodies lie in sleep
Then dawn swims in
As beach stones bathe and gleam.

Beach stones bathe and gleam
 While day-star rays shine on
Rock forms reigning in the sea.

Scenic Tour

Cobwebs of branches
intersecting, reaching out
Destination sky.

Posing

Monarch butterfly
a silent stained-glass statue
lights on wild flowers.

One More For Good Measure

While sitting at my writing desk
I penned a poem on white pages,
What came to grow inside my head?
Motley forms of meter ranges.

First, I jotted one Canzone
Followed by two strong Sonnets,
Next, I added three Rondeaus
Not to mention many Couplets.

Then I scribbled five Villanelles,
With six Sestinas I just treasure,
Along with only eight Kyrielles,
A rima royal for good measure.

Now I'm stumped! What should I do?
This poem was meant to be Haiku.

Spring To Wild Life

Earthbound renegades
Quietly nestle
Beneath mulch rugs.

Their silent vigils begin
From crouched positions
Down deep in shady glens.

Grounded in grassy glades,
Upstarts creep unnoticed
Till they stretch, fully dressed.

These vibrant visuals rise
From underground rooms
Decorating woodland floors.

Hotel Alley

Skid row bums
Dress for no occasion,
Refuse raiders
Need no reservations.

Drug-addicted tenants
Beg for coins and candy,
Deadbeat derelicts
Reside at Hotel Alley.

Gutter renters
Lounge against brick walls,
Vagrant paupers
Rise to no wake-up calls.

Psychotic transients
Cruise dim lit corners
Wayward sons
Fight without honor.

Max and Casper

Cats spring lightly to the sill
Landing feet first, standing still,
Stalking leaves or birds in flight
Slinking thoughts of spider pie.

Fur legs stretched across the bed
Making mole roads beneath the spread,
Racing down the hardwood floors
Cutting corners on all fours.

Whiskers twitch, yawns unfurl,
Bask in sunlight, tails uncurl,
Motors run, lick their paws,
Cleaning up from morning chores.

Satin finish streamlined cats
Walk a tightrope parapet,
Fitting on the smallest ledge,
Resting on a short term nest.

Feline statues grace the room
With their postured bodies groomed,
Seem to wait for my return
Then act, not a bit concerned.
