Flowers of all Ages

Flowers, of all ages
Let them, out of their cages
And into the streets
They will be racing
But, there will be no chasing
To be honest,
I think we are much too lazy
So just sit back
And be content in praising

Flight

The seagull of the hood
Keeping guard over her domain
This may be the concrete wood
But the order must be sustained
If you get too close
Soon enough you will get a doze
On your head or shoulder
It will be quite a boulder
Of the bird’s arsenal
(Not going to the particulars)
So head this warning:
When the seagulls are swarming
Keep you distance
And you may survive the instance!

Amanda

The pretty little lady
Carved out of bronze
Curvy and naked
As cool as the Fonze
Despite over eighty
She’s none too shady

A Whole Lotta Going On

Ferris wheels, Cranes and such
Sure packed a lot of stuff
And into just one image!
Now all we need to do,
Is to put the ball into the scrimmage
Don’t have a clue?
Well, just follow the mimic
I promise, it’s not a gimmick!

And we are privileged
To serve any form of derrière
Be it straight, ambiguous or queer”

By the Pool 

Storm chasing
By the pool
Just because
I’m cool
Some say
What a fool
But I’m not
Breaking any rules
Just looking
For nature’s jewel

With a heart that’s racing
The moment embracing
The storm, finally raging
And I,
I am singing

Bird Watching

“The tables are turned”
The little bird chirped
As she sat
On the latch
…People watching

Bee Acrobatics

The little bee
Dancing around the tree
Getting on her groove
Showing us some moves

Out of the blue
On the cue
She started singing:

“I am limber by nature
One of the most gorgeous creatures
Just because I’m pretty
And possibly quite witty
Do not hate me
Or I will sting thee
