Kiss of Horizon

Aloha,
The beach and mountain photo inspires this poem Enjoy!


Kiss of Horizon


Bright sides of ocean gain fearless flight
Inside, sound silently schemes the night
A whirling windup against a silent screen
Kiss of horizon defies its steady stream

Sunny side motion laps the edge
Swirling slither finds a hedge
Perimeter bombers have their say
Kiss of horizon never backs away

As fog wars settle their ancient bet
Waves seat their cares in the cold and wet
Repeating prayers in gold and red
Kiss of horizon finds its bed

White knights come in the black of night
Steady hands to hold on tight
The biggest winner on a woeful sea
Kiss of horizon might just as well be

Mr Stick Toy

Aloha Poets,
The postcard and shower tree photos inspire this ecopoem. Enjoy!


Mr Stick

No sticky device never lowly
A simple stick will suffice ever slowly
Universal to all yet personal to you
A child's imagination powers you
Generations of migrations Mr Stick leads you

Hall of Fame perfect dubbed by few
Name the fun and the child play too
No self destruct or shelf instruct
Mr Stick any game will find you

Be a truck get unstuck
No mud made can keep you there
Animals play you make their day
Dogs, chimps, otter, snowmen too
Mr Stick the final say is up to you

Poem Photo

Aloha Writers,
Subjects in a photo can show many themes. By viewing visual detail we can discover themes we may explore. Enjoy and play on!

In The Know

A glorified practice run what was the fun
The magic soaks into my spine
Do it up right stay in the fight
Make yourself stronger and then some

A pretty good peek by a marginal geek
Who defines the need outside the door
Out there a star not very far
With only the need to see more

Every one come on and come
A series in surge just go
They had their bent so ahead they went
To rise as one in the know

With no report and no retort
Of effort's discouraging blow
Bring the best stand the test
The outcome of discourage will go
