Mess
This house is a bleedin' mess
There's dust everywhere
You really need to address
You are an idle mare
The carpet needs a hoover
The table needs a wipe
You really need to manoeuvre
If you want an easy life
There's food on the hob
It needs a damn good cleaning
You're such a lazy slob
I want to see it gleaming
Stop moaning about your back
Complaining about your knees
I'll only cut some slack
As you're nearly eighty-three!

MAY I? (2)
MY
perfect one
and only YOU.
MAY I
have permission to
place you on a
throne and bow
in adoration, worship,
and respect for YOU.
I
know I could rush in
the heat of the moment
and have your favorable
response.
BUT
there is an extra moment
of passion when I hear
your eager response to
may I?
EACH
MAY I is a soft
whisper and each
response is so exciting
and filled with verbal
permission as you passionately
reply:
"YES! PLEASE AND HURRY!"
May I... may I...
perfect one
and only YOU.

IN THE MIDSUMMER HEAT
In the midsummer heat
our blues are in retreat.
Joie de vivre in the street,
the disco pounds its beat.
Dresses are less discreet;
bare legs and sandalled feet
roving eyes' gazes meet.
The flirtatious greet.
our blues are in retreat.
Joie de vivre in the street,
the disco pounds its beat.
Dresses are less discreet;
bare legs and sandalled feet
roving eyes' gazes meet.
The flirtatious greet.

Everyday is another opportunity to tell you, you brighten my world ....
It's not dark
It's not creepy
It's not weird sex
It's not what you expect from me
It's not creepy
It's not weird sex
It's not what you expect from me

Plenum Dominium
I saw the crescent moon quite clear
and did not think I would
since brume of late had been severe
and forecast not so good.
And so it was with great surprise
when no clouds could be seen
when my wet weather jaded eyes
met beams from Queen Selene!
It was a double take I took
through sight in disbelief
at what I felt the Earth forsook
when clouds where gushing grief.
But by the moonlight I was blest
from Luna's sickle shape
apex clipping toward the west...
and heaven stunned agape!

little sister mine
I'm struck by the juxtaposition
between the darkness haunting you
and the flood of light
radiating from your smile
I think it's why you were designed
brightening an all too often shadowy world
with the brilliance
of your inner being
it breaks my heart...this existence
so badly beating your burnished shine
battering the sheer intensity
of your glow
I feel much blessed
being a recipient
of such a precious gift
perhaps the glory of its beauty
might have been sorely undervalued
without the...

Pun blossom
In the garden of words
I plant a pun or two
Cultivating humor
with a laugh that's overdue.
I carrot all about you
you make my heart beet
lettuce turnip the fun
don't squash the upbeat.
You’re a-maize-ing.
A real fungi to be with.
Mushroom for love
in our punny myth.
You're the apple of my pie,
the cherry on top.
Together we’re grapeful,
we’re the cream of the crop.
Even when I feel
melon-choly and blue,
I know I've got a friend
who's truly grape and true.

Snail Mom?
She loves fiercely and with abandon
No favorites, they’re all adored
Big or small each one has their own special place in her heart
Treading lovingly, collecting shells
Natures fuel and healing power
Earth mother gently nourishing her offspring with such tenderness
Wait!
What?
She said, “I’m a Snail mom”
I said, “Huh?”
🐌

Great Catch! (Lapping it up)
What a great catch,
As you fall into my lap!
It could be a trap,
But I ain't takin' that!
You're a great match,
A really amazing snatch.
Forget about that nap,
Till I've read you like a map!
We're on the right track,
Takin' up the slack,
Never goin' back -
Filling that sweet crack!

Till I've read you like a map!

Takin' up the slack,
Never goin' back -
Filling that sweet crack!
