Angel Love

Felt down and out
crushed in spirit
alone in my soul

I felt unloved
unappreciated
in my spirit

then the angels came
surrounded me
angel speak

I fell asleep
like a baby
loved and appreciated

the dawn came
my heart wide open
waiting on the sky light

the moon sets
the sun rises
a new day, I rise up

Weather Watch...

Oatmeal, toast and coffee
Peanut butter and jelly
Morning fare and a joint
I’ve seen to my soul and belly

What a wonder is the internet
I’ve been all around the world
Sitting here in my captain’s chair
I’ve watched it all unfurl

I’ve friends in G.B. Britain
I’m friended here and there
Anonymous, I sit here
You can’t see my un-brushed hair

Pajamas, robe and slippers
I talk with friends all around
Tapping keys and T.V. news
Are the only sounds

The Internet is not working
as Yahoo is also not working
a poet's mind goes wild...
is it a kind of madness

Ripples

I look to the west,
nature dressed in it's best,
setting sun, day not done,
as Millcreek rambles on,
still water, glass mirror,
so clear, it couldn't get clearer,
wind gusts, ripples thrust,
ripples ripple, water jiggles,
the clearness stills away,
your life reflection in dissection,
seeking purpose and direction,
from obscure disparity,
to joyful clarity,
a new day, a new look view,
hard days soon to be few,
so as the ripples become still,
a new reflection, a new future to fill.

BIRD SONG

Just plain horny are the boisterous birds;
All day and all night singing the blues,
The "fly me to the moon" serenades,
Like Verdi Romeos by the balcony
And Juliets with romantic eyes

O baybah baybah baybah,
My mistress mine, my coy sir,
Embrace me with thy soft feathers
And puteth claws on my shoulder.
O feel my smooth beak sing
Praises on your wings
As we copulate on a cloud,
And take what the rainbow brings!

Elizabeth’s dream.

When I departed Elizabeth’s dream
nobody heard her imperious screams
Silent they were to this treacherous boy
ragging on antipodean soil

Silent they were to this frenzied ear
Clearing the air in some hemisphere
as earth is to earth, I’m the heir
of a strangling secret that no-one dare

Talk without shame, in polite company
though this is a thing all feel quite plainly
When Elizabeth vein, lowers her drawers
and all of the commoners, shown to the door-

Out of this World [Feb. Contest]

Releasing horses of imagination,
I raced to worlds I dreamt of travelling to-
where stars are born of fire inflammation
to console the darkness, "I'm here for you."

Some young, some old, some anxious to be born
a galaxy furnished the milky way.
In timeless laps and amazing flown,
the elegant content shaped up my day.

The fairies took me aboard the cloud,
a ride along where planets run,
Just like a baby I cried out aloud,
"that really was a miraculous fun."

Life's Challenges

Feel the feelings
of happiness
in composing extraordinary
sacrificial poetry
as now the BIG ones
also read thee

But,
remember
in life
each dog
has his day...

Yet all days
are never the same

Some read me after ages
an odd one
does hate me still
Heavens will
can't help it!
Amen,,,

Final Bow

The show is over
Time for me to go
There have been highs
And an all time low

We played together
Until it fell apart
Then played alone
With a broken heart

As the curtain calls
Remember how
I loved you all
As I take my final bow
