“All right, Mr. DeMille,
I’m ready for my close-up”
Gloria Swanson -Sunset Boulevard
Close-Ups
Getting closer and closer
A little more closer
Almost close enough
For an object to touch
But wait, time to hesitate
The cactus with mighty thorns
May your fingers scorn
Before you loose
Better choose
The creamy strawberries
With their pals blueberries
A tasty treat
Without any meat
Some eye candy to complete
With a red berries ever so sweet

“All right, Mr. DeMille,
I’m ready for my close-up”
Gloria Swanson -Sunset Boulevard
Close-Ups
Little yellow dandelions
With all the fellow yellow flowers
Powerful, like lions
Growing strong, despite September
Possibly still yellow, come November

Close-Ups
Close-ups
Shots of stuff
No huff nor puff
Objet d’arts
Or something smart
Check them out
Let out a shout
If you like
Or just out of smite

Close-Ups
I am soft
But I have thorns
I feel pretty
In my pink colours
I am hard
Watch out!
Better not land
On my rocks

“But which is the stone
that supports the bridge?”
Kublai Khan
Path of Stone
You may find the road ahead stony
Sometimes clean, sometimes moldy
But, if you ate your cup of minestrone
Then you’re strong, without a worry!

“But which is the stone
that supports the bridge?”
Kublai Khan
Treasure Stone
The secrets, from ages passed
Written, in the stone to last
Read it, really, really fast
Because it may end up
Another thing in the past

“But which is the stone
that supports the bridge?”

Simply Stones
I made a pile
A pile of rocks
Rocks cleaned clear
Clear as the day

“But which is the stone
that supports the bridge?”
Kublai Khan
Ancient Stone
Chiseled in stone
With fingers to the bone
By the ancient architects
Now left laying in neglect

Water and Stone
Fire and brimstone
Water and rock
Elements well known
So this,
Shouldn’t come as a shock:
Pour the water
On the fire
It will simmer down,
Eventually

Stepping Stone
A leap of faith in one go
Into the great unknown
Follow the grey brick road
To where ever it may flow
