Little Drops of Poetry

Bits and clips of insight for the digital age

Something says “Away”

Something says “Away” and I say yes. Soothing says something and I say.

So what a little wonder went astray

You are your nickel basket, you and your dime rhinoceros!

Get here, the wind calls it the wind, the fray calls it the fray

You and I can call it an evening day.

 

nickles are friendly buzzards on sideways the evening brow.
saintly misers basking and waiting, in a soluptude across the bend.
you and I call it a sunrise with marvels on the horizon bloomed.
sensing sweet nothings upon a moonray, wondering in a storm.

Subway Soundscape is Coming…

On Subway lines the speakers write,
With whispers in the air.
Listen to unfolding life
Arriving, you’re almost there.

What kind of Snake is that?

It’s the kind, that slides smooth silk.
Behind your neck, snap, bite, his ilk.
You ate the fruit, by your father’s blood,
From the seed does come the bud.
But snakes are teachers, regardless of sin.
True to their nature they’ve always been.

Eco Poem #2

Starlings
Are not small crows
Smaller they are
With yellow
And a reddish tint to their coat
Starling birds
Are not small crows
But sometimes –
They might tell you they are so
