Autumn; Winter waits every year to see her, His persona attracted to her warmed temper. But she arrives before him, often not by much, And, exits on winged Demeter’s pumpkin patch. His chivalric quest, epic as that of Sir Gawayne, He plies her with gifts near the Etruscan plain, They vanish like ice cubes inContinue reading “Fall’s Scepter – A Poem”

An Open letter – A Poem
In this an open letter To the invisible darkness In the realms of spiritual wickedness In the kingdom circling the cosmological Offspring of the heavenly Creator Circling like a lion to see whom to invite as dinner. Let it be known today… That we know – by all that has been written In the sacredContinue reading “An Open letter – A Poem”
En-gedi – A Poem
Its floor, our universe home Acacias of camphor its beams Its rooftops, the cosmic stars Nailed on interstellar rafters. Our footprints safely hidden In the vineyards of En-gedi, Watered by eternal lush wadis. Earth – heaven’s Sensurround, Our world our cosmic retreat: Called to everyone, Before time began, Before we were one, Nature replied forContinue reading “En-gedi – A Poem”
Pancake Tuesday – A Poem
How can this auspicious wake Of a new month on a Tuesday, Go unheralded without pancakes Embracing fortune’s amulet gastronomy.
A floral reprise – A Poem
Summer’s messenger blows kisses; a floral reprise As autumn’s mediator beckons September sunrise, Exhorting the wind’s guttural whistles in the trees To fling in nature’s spinning loom, its cares; leaves Weaving hope foot paths in red, brown and amber As Summer fluffs her exquisite abode for slumber.
The Long Blue Blanket – A poem
An unusual scene at a city stoplight, A hooded stranger in the noon light, Body shrouded in a long blue blanket. The figure utters whispers on her plight, Cuddling unbridled tears in the blanket. Onlookers avoid her gaze and she theirs. Passersby kept their distance; she hers. Sadness cloaked sound from the ether, But, herContinue reading “The Long Blue Blanket – A poem”
Cheesy – A Poem
Give me not, wee squares of Gruyere delicacies Punctuating party charcuterie boards, plucked Upon with tooth picks bow-tied with lace doilies. But, hefty handfuls of creamy cured cheesy curds, High on the list of things, of which one never tires. Mac and cheese, those twins of the culinary empire Their Romulus-like elbows hold truckles of cheese:Continue reading “Cheesy – A Poem”
Camouflage – A Poem
Blue Jays and thrashers, first to dawn’s feast, As early morning skies pretend to be night. While a large fluffy brown hare motionless By a brick wall, attempts *Batesian mimicry, With the wall’s mirage of painted green grass. Then, to invisibility’s lantern the hare scurries To hide in plain sight, in the vestiges of night;Continue reading “Camouflage – A Poem”
Abundance of rain – A Poem
Drip, from above, O heavens, thy distilled refrain – The sound of the abundance of rain: An inner satiety that fills without food, Birthed from a ray of hope; a single word, A tattoo reminder on adversity’s parchment, A single word traversing ordeal’s escarpment, That, be the sound of the abundance of rain: Where seasonsContinue reading “Abundance of rain – A Poem”

My dear darling auto correct; Thy selfless typing materialize Words of puzzlement and tease. I type hello you answer “yellow.” I type jello, you answer, “hello.” I type rainbow you answer “boo.” Is my typing too spooky for you, Or, am I your one and only boo. Proving my devotion I type love, You immediatelyContinue reading “Auto Correct – A Poem”
