Sweet smoky bacon
Bursting with salty goodness
Adds to any meal
Sizzling on the hot grill’s heat,
Brings a smile with every bite.

Yummy breakfast meal
Start to your day quite ideal
Day fuel with appeal
Aids in healing the brain, heal.
So ideas can come ideal

Roots spread deep in earth
Seasons cycle through the years
Wisdom blooms with time
All branches for each decade
and many leaves for each year…

More frigid then ice
Cooler than arctic circles
and frozen tundras
Human decency left you
Now destined to be alone

Shadows in the night
Whispers call, yet hearts stand firm
Stronger than the dark
Overcoming obstacles
Until they all are achieved…

Writing a rengay
Is quite difficult some say
I find it like play
The words dance in harmony
Crafting thoughts, they flow like streams

Turning gears align
Momentum builds beneath steel
Strength in motion flows
Flowing forever like time
From here to infinity…

Power of Motion

Turning wheels with purpose and might,  

Overcoming obstacles, reaching new heights.  

Rotating forces that drive us along,  

Quietly powering, strong and long.  

Unleashing energy, a thrill in the air,  

Engine’s heartbeat, a mechanical flair.

Defiant daisies
Grow through the hardest concrete
Beautiful protest
In an unjust world, we live
Beauty will surely prosper

Day without a night
Midnight, yet it’s midday bright
Darkness far from sight
Whispers dance on gentle air
Time stands still, a moment rare

Behind these cold walls
time stretches like silent chains
hope flickers within
All positivity fades
and dies a slow painful death…

OWL
FLAMINGO
PHEASANT

The Colorful Trio

In a forest bright and grand,
Lived an owl, a flamingo, and a pheasant so grand.
With feathers of colors, a sight to behold,
Each one unique, but their hearts made of gold.

The owl was wise, perched high in a tree,
With stories of night and the secrets to see.
The flamingo danced with a graceful delight,
Spinning and twirling, a vibrant sight.

The pheasant, oh my, with a plume so fine,
Chirped joyful tunes, keeping spirits in line.
They’d gather at dusk, as the sun dipped low,
Sharing their tales with a warm, friendly glow.

Though different they seemed in the light of the day,
They laughed and they played in their own special way.
For friendship, you see, knows no bounds, nor disguise,
In the world of the odd, love always replies.

So, here’s to the trio, so quirky and bright,
The owl, flamingo, and pheasant, a delight!
In their colorful world, they teach us to cheer,
That friendship is magic, forever sincere.

RUNNING
BURNING
FLAME

Flame of Desire

The flame of desire burning deep in my soul,
Wanting you here now and forever, to make me whole.
But you are running away, slipping through my grasp,
A shadow in the distance, too far to clasp.
