~When The Night Comes~
(Lanterne Suite)
When
night comes
it's time to
relax sleep
too
The
chores are
nearly done
mark end of the
day
Night
creeps
in again
and it's time to
dream
The
moon shows
thru dark clouds
and stars brightly
shine.

Oh Sweet Seasons,
Return to me
Bring back the summers
of love in the sand
of champagne moons
and dancing in the sun
Send me your autumns
on apple cider breeze
and nature’s confetti
of auburn and gold
Frost me in winters
with marshmallow mountains
warmed by hot chocolate
and pine coned embers
Then let life renew
oh sweet seasons of spring
with lilac memories
and honey bee serenade

my attempt at a simplistic limerick suite
thank you
"cats and hats"
I once went to the beach with hats
and noticed in the back seat were my cats
I couldn't leave them in the car
so we ended up sitting at the bar
later I placed them on cool mats
we stayed until the sun went down
in between they managed to be a clown
they nestled and played with my hats
in style as true diplomats
now for all it was a showdown
as our day was nearing end
we were happy and could not pretend
my cats were never alone
my love and patience had grown
but now my hats I need to mend

Each day
As if through night
I walk, searching my way
Holding in my hands, a flashlight
eyes strained.
Watching
The road closely
I stay on the small path
Stepping over rocks, avoiding
Ivy.
But soon
The flashlight dies
I know I must go on
Yet feel blind in pitch black night,
I stop.
I hear
The night's music
Around me like a voice
That sings to me a melody
Of love.
I wait
With my faith strong
I know something will change
And I raise my voice in response
Clouds part.
The moon
Is then revealed
I see the path clearly
Before dawn I'll be where I belong,
With thee.

Blossoms
Upon branches
Relieved from winter's frost
Exclaim their joy in sweetest scents
Love found.
A spring
In their step, hands
Held together, he stops
Plucks a bloom, place it in her hair,
Hearts pound.
Eyes locked
He proposes
She opens her arms, sobs
And made their vows under the pink
Blossoms.

~ More Than Anything ~
( Cinquain Suite)
You're more
Beautiful than
Any blushing pink sunrise
More than a pretty hot scarlet
Sunset
And I
Love nothing more
Than being always with you
The sound of your voice soothes
My soul
Your love
Make my heart pound
Wildly and my knees weak
You're more beautiful than any
Love song.

~Thank You Lord For All You Do~
( Dodoitsu suite )
Thank you Lord for all you do
You've made it all so nice too
With you I can do it all
Nice to hear your call
You make every day brand- new
Change nature and all of hue
Butterflies fly 'cause of you
Beautiful sky too
So I pray, praise you today
World lies in palm of your hands
You made us and give us life
Thanks for all You do.

Should I tell U how
Love 4 U within me sings?
Swinging scatted tune

Sound brought me 2 U

Dulcet notes on glass

Time always 4 U

funny, poetry,
My verse is free
My cadence my own
But maybe I should stick to
I Do Not Know
For trying to find
A pigeon hole
Constipates my poetic flow
While I love to cook
I love to taste
I'm hard pressed to follow a recipe
I'm here to admit
Despite my best efforts
It simply isn't me
So in I Do Not Know
I will push my poems
Such should suite me fine
There I can stick my rhyme
Wherever I like
Including where the sun don't shine.
