Countless seed, forest floor lay
Few will see the light of day
Seeking the sun, drawn to its glow
While some reach for stars and truly grow
The choices are ours, whither or evolve
For there’s always a bright side when we revolve

buy time, write novel, get rich,
retire, rest then paint.

A love imagined
Afloat in infinite space

Birds in my vent
Louvers are bent
They chirp incessantly
.
I haven’t slept in a week
Though chicks I’d like to see
.
Soon they will hatch
My vent, I’ll patch
Never again rent for free
.
And when next I need a nature show
I’ll see it on TV

A rose is just a rose
When methodically it’s chose
Yet a rose is so much more
When a surprise left at your door
*
A kiss is just a kiss
When given hit or miss
Though a kiss is so much more
When from who you adore
*
A life is just a life
When hiding from others strife
But life is so much more
When one finds what life is for
*
And death is just death
When we take a final breath
Or a life forever more
When we’ve left an open door

G’head punk, make my day
Steal this poem as you may
I’ll write another, take that one too
Then I’ll pen prose, making fun of you
*
Take from me, indulge your greed
Plagiarism, the affirmation we need
Don’t you worry I’ll rhyme some more
I’ve infinite topics to explore
*
But you, my friend, only do one thing
You’re a one note wonder, that can’t even sing
While creators create, both good and bad
A thief’s life will always and only be sad

Intellectual intercourse, screwing with my brain
In and out, in and out, it’s driving me insane
Mingle, tingle, fiddle and wrangle
Contortions of thought in an obtuse angle
~
Choose your philosophy from the six-o’clock news
Share the cheers of winners, without deadly dues
Think what you want, do as they say
Lie and be trampled or kneel and pray
~
Feel the salt slide down your throat
Maybe it’s time for a bigger boat
Faster cars or super-sonic jet
All’s to lose when time’s the bet
~
Spew some truth, take your chance
Or sit and wait and never dance
You’ll never know how far to go
When life’s an illusion, just a TV show

and shear negativity.

Roses and commies are red
States and necks can be too
They’re all stinkin’ up the place
That’s why we’re all feeling blue

I
Love
Only you
Vehemently, verbosely, veraciously
Every day is new
You and I
One forever
Us

Happy Mothers day
Cradles all her precious kin
Judges not, where life begins
Cherished breast nurture space
Moving forward her many race
.
One side day the other night
One side dark the other light
Sheds cool and rain, heat and snow
Her orbits share all else to know
.
Oceans deep, skies bright
Growing all, her suns might
She frees to wander, endless whys
Her moons revolve before her eyes
.
Dancing tides flowing minds
Infinite movement never binds
In this universe family all are we
This milky galaxy our mother be

Haikus need to be
A pair, a triplet or more
Or they’re just haiku

I tried to pen a beautiful rhyme
But I cried most every time
I’ve tried to write a love song
But the notes all came out wrong
.
I tried to bake a birthday cake
All I got was a burnt mistake
I’ve tried to pick you wild flowers
Till’ the bees rained down like spring showers
.
I try to say I love you,
each and everyday
I’ll try again tomorrow,
when the pain’s gone away

To put others down is
To boost oneself up

Thank you friend for sharing with me
Your warmth and laughter and all there’s to see
.
You’ve come into my heart, made me look inside
You’ve made me realize what I’ve always been denied
A new emotion now exposed, feelings I can’t hide
.
It’s a feeling that is new, a feeling that is true
This feeling is love and I’m sure it’s for you
This love for you so hard to contain
Though resist I must to cause you no pain
.
I know of your love once had, now gone
I know of your tears and how each day you mourn
This pain you carry and cannot ignore
Time and friends, the only cure
.
Please let me help and be a friend
Together we’ll make all this hurt end
We can speak of the future or yesterday
We can chat under moonlight or whisper by the bay
.
Thank you friend for sharing with me
Your warmth, laughter and all life can be
For all you’ve done, I’m indebted to you
How to repay, I have no clue
.
I owe you my life, I owe you my love
I owe you the stars and moon above
I owe you more than I can give, regardless of expense
Thank you friend for these feelings so intense
.
I owe you most the time and space that you need
For you I must comply, despite my wants and greed
Together we’ll let time and fate take its natural course
We’ll share another day free of remorse
.
We can talk of the future or yesterday
We can chat under moonlight or whisper by the bay
We can run through the rain or stroll in the park
We can sit on a beach or share secrets in the dark
.
While lovers may come, lovers may go
We’ll be good friends always, this I know
Yes, to you I give my thanks, my friend
And my love for you that will never end

My silent alarm, works every day.
Dreams of coffee wafting my way.
I get up quick to make water hot.
Then longingly watch the drips in the pot.
.
When half way full the process proceeds.
The quest begins for the rest of my needs,
A big cup, of course, some sugar and cream.
And something to stir a new coffee dream.
.
My brew perks away then perks me up.
There’s nothing better than a second cup.
To sip and to savor and share the sunrise.
The beauty’s doubled with wide open eyes.
.
I think it’s the drink I drink the most,
Columbian, Sumatra or a dark French Roast.
Whole-bean or ground, instant or drip,
They all taste great from the very first sip.
.
Winter hands on a hot mug are nice.
In the summer it’s refreshing with ice,
Or a flavorful syrup or tasty ice cream.

My cat had a vision the other day
Of a future, not long away
She stood on the moon
Gazed into the gloom
~
Where once a planet spun
Fresh air, naps and scratches, oh what fun
Food abounds for every taste
Till wolves overcame and all was a waste
~
Wars were fought over piles of trash
And our once cozy home now a ball of ash
