Ignite the flame from a poet’s spark
Oozing emotion of a melting heart
Burning souls till tears do start
Dousing the flame of a poet’s spark

No Halves

A glass when empty
Means only one of two things
Time’s told or soul’s sold

The End
Beginnings worry
Finishes haunt to the end
Ends start spirits then

When the day is done
And you wish to run on, then
You’re young and insane

The Lottery
I’ll buy the ocean, tallest tree.
When I win the lottery.
$
A never-ending shopping spree.
When I win the lottery.
*
The good times we’ll have, you and me.
When I win the lottery.
$
I’ll share it all, just wait and see.
When I win the lottery.
*
Can you spare a buck, it’s not free.
Then I’ll win the lottery.

The End

Loose lips may sink ships.
But lovely lips will always
sink lonely sailors

Also good for the gander

Thoroughly of writers block
Nothing’s left to write

Infinity is
Where the parallel converge

Sweet & Salty
Breezes aloft to venture away
Rudder responds to steer our way
A compass true to guide us home
Anchor moored to no longer roam
The rouges be kept before the mast
Our knot be taut to forever hold fast
It’s you, this phantom on my stormy sea
So please wave good-bye or sail with me

Disordered
Order starts within
Chaos ends when you begin
Without cannot win

A Kinder Garden
Babies bounce, wiggle and giggle
They’ll toddle together all day
Until the first steps out the door
They think what their parents say
Off to school for the golden rule
Plus infinite shades of gray
Their grades growing ever higher
Where some will flex others sway
Color’s blind when colors blend
The indelible always stay
Unwanted hues discarded
When tired of their display
Yet a garden need be nourished
For the hope of blooms in May
Or lie and hide from the fall
And awake to face decay

One Won
~*~
A wordy poem
no one reads. Haiku condense
The poet concedes
