HENNY PENNY'S GENETIC ENGINEERING

Pennies
fall from heaven,
blabs Gene, moon-struck lover;
More likely, the down-to-earth sky-views of
Henny !

Spring Buzz


He flew,
sipping nectar
and tasting the sweet bliss
in soft, open arms of petals'
perfume.

To Feel Like a Woman


Perfume;
rain showers mist
upon my bare shoulders.
I smell my sexy, natural
fragrance.

Past month
mind was a blank,
ideas come and go; slow,
jumbled, erratic, make no sense,
no words.

Lovely thought... and wistful rhyme too.  Nice, Sue!

sew dew
upon our grass,
fair Miss't of Morning Light;
each blade shall drink to thee ere sun

lapse dawns

A tip
for all cowboys,
delivered with a grin...
It's never wise to squat down when
in spurs.

dahn!

fair miss't
spills morning dew
in sheets on fallow ground
where life now ripples quietly
awake

P.S.  I meant also to mention that you offer excellent advice for cowboys who exercise that first step towards farming that fallow ground: squatters' rights.
