he fell to his knees
on seeing her naked form
much praise he did give
above the roadway
a glassy mirage shimmered  
on the long hot day
a blanket of frost
encases the dry countryside
on this July morning
his stem lovingly
probed her scented flower
ecstatic their bliss
the bronze medallions
dropped from the autumn trees
to tumble around
on the grass blades
tiny glass dewdrops closely clung
to reflect rainbows
a convoy of trucks
thundered down the main drag
of our small township
a carpet of light
lit the forest's arcane floor
in firefly flares
love is a bouquet
scented in fragrant aroma
it overpowers
as night's darkness falls
the eternal wolf keeps watch
over tribal lands
timely falls of rain
now quench the dry countryside
with a damp blessing
winter's white cocoon
waited for spring's warm caress
to unfurl its hues
horse tail clouds drifted
across the blue parchment sky
this dazzling spring day
brooding clouds cover
the sun's gleaming lustrous beams
this late Friday morn
yellow daises bloom
on my dried out back lawn
yet bees reap pollen
on the forest floor
bark twigs and leaf matter lay
they'd soon be compost
volleys of thunder
resound across the bush sky
this late Monday night
from creation's full womb
our poetry is birthed daily
for readers world wide
one can't telephone
another locale without
the right phone number
war is a madness
that causes too much sadness
let saneness prevail
on his departure
her heart's lively red color
drained to pallor
with a winning hand
there's an element of luck
it's the dealer's call

her copper hued lips
implored him to kiss them
with exuberance
a veil of light cloud
covers the stellar shows glints
with its fine blanket
a brilliant blue sky
gave cause for the birds to sing
in joyous chorus
on the ide of March
autumn trees will start changing
to rustic colours
afore the rains fell
river dwelling frogs croaked
in a profuse thrum
a lone piper stood
on a craggy hill playing
a doleful lament
choruses of birds
sang joyfully in the tree tops
as a bright sun rose
late last evening
dust pink hues decorated
the vast Northern skies
the dappled shadows
played on the forest floor
till the end of day
the sun's glowing heat
hid behind the cloud's retreat
twas not a fine treat
spring's first lovely kiss
twas an exciting new bliss
between the young hearts
night's cloak of darkness
lifts to display the daylight
nature's own drama
applying goodwill
can win a peace dividend  
in the Gaza strip
words so well written
within hearts encrypted
singing poetically
before noon to-day
clouds gathered in the skies
yet they bought no rain
Miss Mavis Morton
made Mister Milton Millgate
many morish muffins
six sozzled sailors
sang several sea shanties
sailing stormy seas
a band of pink clouds
settled in the western skies
late yesterday eve
on the forest floor
many dappled shadows played
as the trees swayed
does anyone recall
lucid technicolor dreams
imagine if you will
neath the golden sun
the willows did sway to the
soft whispering breeze
as I sat writing
a sneaky twee wee breeze did slip
under my back door
where cabbages grew
white winged moths gathered
to eat their leaves
clusters of pretty stars
arrayed in the night sky
like a halo ring
the altar of love
makes the soul its victim
cruel is this device
