Puppies

DownUp +12

Skunky breath in my face
little feet all over the place
teeth like razor blades
chew up my favorite shades
oh i forgive you
for you are tooooo cute
now what to name this
little tyke who fills me with bliss

i name you chomper

no! don’t piss on that
it’s my practice bat
puppy crap everywhere
no matter where you stare
but i still love you
even though i only have one shoe.

Moon Power

DownUp +4

The moon is full
cant you feel the pull
the waves crash
as we all bash
our heads
into our beds
y u may ask
cuz we all bask
in the glory of
the white dove
the sun of the night
the moon who gives light
so go out and fight
and be free this night

Autumn Leaves

DownUp +4

The rustle of autumn leaves
a tender hand upon your sleeves
the scent of perfume fills the air
as you are left only to stare

a lonely tear rolls down wet cheeks
missing the tender peeks
between half open eyes
no more long goodbyes

an incomplete feeling fills in the void
wishing to no longer be toyed
a puppet upon a string
to dance and to sing

she walks away for the last time
for you have spent your last dime
on the ring upon her finger
and as you linger

one second more
before you go back to the store
to say thankyou
for that is all you can do

left awe struck
nothing but a succulent roast duck
waiting to be devoured
before you get all soured

for she said yes
oh yes, yes yes
for the rest of your life
no matter the strife

she
said
the
magic
word
YES!

Blood Moon

DownUp +1

In the night sky, a blood moon rises
over the horizon
a chill wind creeps through the
branches of trees
the cry of wolves is heard
throught the starless sky

sadness walks the earth as blood
soaks into the soil
fear roams free as those who
surrender are consumed
hope seems a distant dream
washed away by warm waters

yet a smile shines in the darkness
a child’s laugh hidden within the
howls of the night
whispers on a breeze
tender touches
found within

in a world of blackness
where fear and sadness rule
and hope is nothing
a forgotten memory
a long lost dream

or is it

The Inside of an Anniversary Card

DownUp +4

As I look into your eyes
I forget why the world cries
for I am complete, no longer sore
no longer wanting something more
from the world or wanting to know

why the sky creates snow
why each flake is different
why each flake is but a fragment
of the one before
all I need to know on this sandy shore

is that you are my snow flake

the one created
that I long awaited
to see
out here on this lonely sea
