When I’m writing less
I’ve far fewer excuses

Day‘s Anew
.
Minds still, souls at rest
Hearts beat quiet in our chests
Sharing life, dawns best
~
Timeless
.
The sun doesn’t set
Until the moon and the stars
Twinkle in your eyes
~
To Is
.
To love is to share
Good, bad, laughter and a tear
Soulfully aware

nothing’s poetry

While living the dream
I woke with a scream, to find
My dream was a dream

Education is
Time spent spending, learning is
Time spent on living

As long as there is
Writers block I’ll have something
To not write about

Turning Point
You’re paranoid when
you use turn signals to turn
in your own driveway.

Not Berry Funny
You know you’re aging
When you imagine Aunt Bea
with long flowing hair.

Slowly Evolving
Inspired today
by a long walk in the woods,
one foot at a time.

Artful Sight
Colors the world bright
Sunrise, sunset, dark of night
Paint box filled with light
~
Night Rhythms
Notes strewn, candles fade
Laughter ebbs, whispers consume
Heartbeats set the tone
~
Fine Line
Lustful sheets beckon
Bodies tingle, lips moisten
Blood boils – time to write!

“Ignorance is bliss”
Is a good motto to have
If the only choice

Approximately
One-third of a human’s life
Will be spent lying

Trapped in the past is
When twenty-twenty hindsight
Blindsides our foresight

Has a Ball
.
What surrounds us all;
Warms, chills, cries – never dies?
Ever changing skies
~
Fusion
.
Old flames reunite
Fueled and mingling freely
When all becomes ash
~
Merry-Go-Round
.
Around and around
We all go, around what is
What I’d like to know

Rulablelesssness
Poetry is speech
From hearts not minds – unconfined
Grammar cast aside

Metaphoric Netalism
A net full of holes
Will always fill with something
Without there’s nothing

All’s Write
Hands write history
A mind writes philosophy
Hearts write poetry

Awaken Flight –
Cocooned larva’s night
Silken rest for mornings light
Freeing wings of flight
*
Write Time –
I have read so much
about writing, I ran out
of my time to write
*
Drunk Love –
Alcohol is the
Mothers milk of orphans
Drink deep, die alone

Satisfaction~
No satisfaction
I can’t get your reaction
And I tried haiku
.
Tea Party~
Time for a feeling
Dreams of rock and roll tonight
Living on haiku

Walkers Way~
Please give me a kiss
Muffins don’t get down like this
Haikus reminisce

Immature I’m not
I’m a wise caterpillar
Not ready for flight

Steps~
Draft quick, edit well
Then rewrite at your pleasure
Step back and enjoy

Undone Unknown~
Sad poems unfinished
Fill time’s empty sheets with tears
Forever unseen

Poetic Optimism
If money worthless?
Poets stay poor but with more
Paper to write on
`
Endlessness
Procrastination
Accomplished hastily
Ends prematurely
`
Ends
Procrastination
Untried soon accomplishes
Endless finished tries
