Orb of amber sizzling-
like fried egg,
on griddle blue sky.
Peanut butter puffs
fill the air-
spotted dog reclines,
dreaming of steak.
Beaded lamp shines-
across desk, dresses
dark corners in light.
Purple velvet sky -
sprinkled rhinestone stars,
fuchsia horizon beckons.
Empty Koi pond, dark
murky water hosting only –
green algae.

Two of these made it to my college literary magazine for publishing !
