Our jeans
were once stone-washed;
the one and only time
they are ever likely to see
water .....

Water
is nourishment
needed for all living
blossoms that grow, creep, crawl and wrap
around.

SUMMER EVENING GLASSES,
AND SOME ARE EVEN IN PINTS

A round,
or indeed two
of convivial cheer
helps the heat, medicine, and sun
go down.

Gosh, it's been months since I've tried one of these.  Well, I'll give it a go ...

"Go down!"
I yell at weeds
that seem to leap from ground
casting their fluffly seed abroad,
e'er more

a stout, lone ship
braving a torrent cold
stacked high with ribboned cylinders

and you'll discover that you're full

RESENTFULLY DANCING IN THE PARK
or
TREADING (in) A MEASURE

Oh fit,
would that I were,
for more than doggerel,
hound-like cravings, canine leavings,
Shih Tzu .... dance.gif

No sheet
of ghostly white
for a spooked spirit comes
knocking on my door to find love
once lost.

through frigid sleet
with burning heart to find
a hearth where he could fill his arms
with warmth

NO LOVE

With warmth
and affection,
best wishes, all that stuff.
I can't help noting an absence :
no love ....

at gamblers
who cast their lot to luck
for things we ought to ask of Him

in gentle slumber we're renewed

new start we need
with each morn's dawning sun
and when the day is done we're spent
again
