Sea Pro
The sun’s beau
The winds foe
Decks glow
All to show
Raisins to sow
Tides to know
Men to grow
Neat hair bow
Tall tales flow
Never eats crow
No one’s schmoe
Mighty as a whales blow
A Skipper’s Joe
Gifts to bestow
Above and below
Much to owe
Life’s to stow
Lines to toe
Oceans to row
Be ready to go
Never say no
When a Bosun says so
Follow the ole Sea Pro

Writes
Great writes few.
Good writes great.
Bad write’s good.
No writes bad.
.
No write’s wrong.
Write to write.
Write the wrong.
Time is left.
.
Good nights long.
The time’s right.
Write your song.
Write for you.

New Day
When life adds lemons to salty tears,
One can blend with Tequila, slug a few beers.
These ades to aid will quench our cares,
Peeling the rind of all our fears.
*
But mornings return, suns will rise,
Burning fog in heads and eyes.
A cure’s not a cure if demise.
Perhaps today lemonade’s wise.

Bad Day Haikus
Oven door’s open.
Gas on high, how many flicks –
To blow the roof off?
*
Broken windows thwart.
Frustration and failure collude.
Death escapes my grasp.
*
Fail another way.
To wish for another day.
When black fades to gray.

My Pencil
My pencil in hand – mind set free
Erasing the chains binding me
Safe in my world of poetry
A better friend there cannot be
No rhyme or reason there’s to flee
No shackles of society
No meter of conformity
No question of sincerity
No judge, jury or guilty plea
No door can stop my slender key
I’ll wander through infinity
Another side of life’s journey
Draw lines that know no boundary
Return with words for all to see
Arrange them well – create beauty
Then thank my little piece of tree
The End sck081514
