Halloa
The cold seeps in, and chills my bones
the grey skies depressions cloud my dawns
the forcast of oncoming storms
an escape to sumny shores
To where they sway like snakes possesed
and herald with a garland you bedecked
native beauties with bare breasts
the Hauwaii welcome thats the best
For honeyed holiday that you expect
that haven with no limit cocktail hour treats
advertising hype thats hopefull, smiles beamed aspect
no hoar to chill in this, ideal retreat
That volcano is it dead
to awake from centuries of sleep
what are those long odds, a betting hedge
and spew its ash on horticulture in the fields
Bring lava down the slopes into the streets
that paradise we made is self contrived
self habitual deciet of summers heat
for honours dreams under grey and rainy skies
Grass skirts that twist and writhe
eruptions hollow menace reeks a burning sythe
a dance to repeat time after time
the H bomb ticking mountainside
the grey skies depressions cloud my dawns
the forcast of oncoming storms
an escape to sumny shores
To where they sway like snakes possesed
and herald with a garland you bedecked
native beauties with bare breasts
the Hauwaii welcome thats the best
For honeyed holiday that you expect
that haven with no limit cocktail hour treats
advertising hype thats hopefull, smiles beamed aspect
no hoar to chill in this, ideal retreat
That volcano is it dead
to awake from centuries of sleep
what are those long odds, a betting hedge
and spew its ash on horticulture in the fields
Bring lava down the slopes into the streets
that paradise we made is self contrived
self habitual deciet of summers heat
for honours dreams under grey and rainy skies
Grass skirts that twist and writhe
eruptions hollow menace reeks a burning sythe
a dance to repeat time after time
the H bomb ticking mountainside

Harrington Hardly Hesitated🌹
As an habitual gardener, past,
When showers would oft herald in the spring,
It was an honor for me when I’d see
E’er tiny sprigs’ eager draw to new light.
In a season’s burst of horticulture,
The days find me out, long cultivating.
I’m filled with a joy’s everlasting love,
To give all of this growth hopeful haven.
I’m kneeled as in prayer, a spade to the earth,
Just like the rich soil in olde Hawaii).
Lilac, & honeyed suckle on the vine,
Are maturing near walkways & trellis.
In the locality of hedge rows, squared,
With their snow-gray hoar frost in a section,
Resembles a maze in Red Queen’s garden,
Except I, with my dead-headed roses.
