Two fireflies in love,
Like color on a rainbow
Shine brightly and glow

----x---x---x---x---x---

When my momma left me alone
This frightened me so
I cried and cried

When I entered kindergarten
at age five

This traumatizing major event
changed my whole life
My mother I miss her so

---x---x---x---x---x---

Sleep would feel good
at this moment
I could fall asleep
and count some sheep
and have a dream
Of being a queen
Wearing exotic green
Like in a movie scene
or I could stay awake
and read poetry
and write a poem
nahh I'm falling asleep
good night

Emerald city's genuine goddess of all things green
Slept upon a grassy field where does live flowers yellow
beside the greatest garden ever generously growing
sweet green grapes,
ginger, guava, greens, and ginseng
underneath a starry constellation comforter
contentedly
with a soft lullaby from a nice nightingale ,
and a warm smile from an adoring mystical moon
She slept soundly the whole night through

Hearts and Stars and Love,
a sky full of happiness,
Hugs and Kisses, too

In my homeland where I live
we have four seasons
Summer, Spring, Winter and Fall
And I'm not sure which
I love best of all

True friendship is a very lovely flower
Most beautiful of all flowers
With  petals elegant and fragile
A fragrance so enchanting
And an exotic color so rare
Other flowers can't help but stare

Five frogs hop along
And splash in a nearby pond,
after french kissing

Once a beautiful princess with a Zest for life
and a love for tasty Zingers
morphed
into a Zebra butterfly

Whenever she was enjoying her tasty Zingers
She was always on cloud nine
and so blissfully happy and alive

So one sweet summer's day
she was Zipping along on a Zephyr's breeze
Pleasantly enjoying life with a smile

When suddenly she came upon a garden,
an enchanting garden of Zinnias
Beauties, blooming colours of Zeal

And then suddenly he flew Zoom, Zoom
Zing, Zing faster than a Zenith light
A dragonfly, "ahh a god" she thought

And she worshipped him, he was her god
he was the Zeus of her garden
He could go from Zero to sixty in a Zecond


She was so ecstatically happy in her garden
she had honestly believed she had expired
and went to her very own sweet Heaven

When actually she was only dreamin'
sometimes  she falls asleep unexpectedly
Zzzzzzzzzzzzz

Some dreams leave me filled with
wonder and adventure
Like packing only one piece of luggage
and saying "come with me, take my hand
Let's go away, get lost and chase our dreams
Let's go visit the Stars, just you and I
Let's go see the world"

Oh please stop, Stop now
Leave him alone, Stop fighting
Go your merry way!

pretty women around the world
when they see me, they smirk
and some shake their head
and say, "who is that girl,
who is that beautiful girl?"

some even roll their eyes
and say my ego is huge
and i need to be brought
down to size
i laugh at them and say
"I don't wear any rouge"

whenever i sashay into a room
I flip my hair, give a big smile
and strike a pose
And all the sweet honeybees,
every last one
fall down on their knees
and offer me a red rose
some even beg and plead
"marry me please"

and some give a loud whistle
just to capture my attention
and all of them in unison
exclaim with an excited smile
"wow! you rock!"

yes, glamor girl, that's me
for every last honeybee
many kisses I blow
and I give them a special wink
and whisper, "yes, I know"
xoxo

Was fun, I enjoyed the poems
I read
Hope to read some more
real soon

To a sweet poet living on the moon
good night and pleasant dreams,
sweet dreams, forever and always
good night,  i love you, muuuuuah!

When one thousand years has passed us by,
I hope mother earth is still beautiful
And there's fruit trees and grass so green,
And fresh air to breathe that's clean

There's animals alive of every variety,
fireflies, ladybugs, and honeybees
I hope there's an amazing blue sky,
with songbirds together flying so high

And I hope most of all flowers still grow,
and there's a winter with falling snow

I'm thankful for gravity
and all that is
I'm thankful for flowers and trees,
Birds and bees, you and me
I'm thankful for poets
writing beautiful poetry,
I'm thankful for their pen
and their golden ink
I'm thankful for the soil,
and so much more
I'm thankful for gravity,
and all that is

Wow! A beautiful sight to see
Extremely beautiful
New grass, gorgeous and green
This refreshing new grass
Has sprouted up overnight
So vibrant and rich,
What color!

Hello Gorgeous Poet
A sweet mockingbird's
Invitation of love
Kissing and kissing
Under an apple tree

He loves me everyday
woo! hoo!...and i love him, too
what more can I say!
xoxo

Pelicans praying,
A crocodile goes away
amen and amen

Just imagine
if you were an apple
an orange, a banana,
a peach, a pear
All day you could hang
from a tree limb
And no one would care
Unless they were hungry

Hey everyone, let's chat about happiness
I just finished reading a poem on the front page
of death and sadness
It's totally heartbreaking when someone
feels so low
But a beautiful enchanting thing when someone
feels happy and they glow

Once upon a time, someone once said to me
Make yourself happy
no one is responsible for your happiness
and no one should be responsible
for your sadness
Think of your emotions as a galloping horse
and you hold the reins

You know they say, money can't buy happiness
Yet, no matter what they say
money does play a part in happiness
though certainly money doesn't buy love
but as one famous cowboy strums guitar strings
and in his best country voice sings
"Money can buy me a boat
and a truck to pull it"

So your feelings are up to you, take control
and make yourself happy

Upon this gorgeous, pleasant day birds fly,
and clouds float across the sky
Everything feels right with the world
Even though we know our earth is changing,
and with climate change affecting our oceans
raising the temperature unbelievably
we know someday all the fish will die,
and we know someday with deforestation
all the animals will die
So sad humanity yearns for the largest
piece of pie

Where is Autumn's chill?
Heat of summer lingers,
Like rings on my fingers

Without thought or care of where he was going,
He flew into the eclipse!

Now he's miles and miles away from home,
in a brand new neighborhood

What of his loving family and friends?
Suppose they will wonder where he's gone,
and maybe they will hope he will phone

Anyway I feel so terrible,
Little honeybee's out there all alone!

My sweetheart, my love
shines bright like stars at midnight
He is a diamond

------x-----x-----x-----x-----
My love is a great eagle
He flies higher than the sky

In the midnight hour
He comes into my dreams

And shares his stories
His delicious stories with me

Of his love for the earth
and every living thing
------x-----x------x-----x-----

So last night, I stopped by Santa's workshop
And I met his team of eight tiny reindeer
His sweet little wife and all of his elves

AND do you know,  they whispered in my ear
some members of Hello Poetry are very naughty
So Santa's added their names to his list, my dear

AND Santa declared with a very saddened heart
they will be blessed with nothing this year

Dear Poets and Readers

This poem page will be dedicated

He is a fabulous poet, I dare say

he captures my attention
whenever he spreads ink on the page

every word, I can't help but enjoy

slowly

like sipping the finest expensive wine
when by candlelight  I dine

sigh

his every word  succulent
upon my tongue

then i melt like an ice cream
on a summer's day
---x---x---x---x---

Nice to see you come around
changing color of leaves
from green to brown
Hi October, would be a dream
if you could just stay
and hang around

---x---x---x---x---

Oh! Oh! Oh!
I'm drowning in Love's sea
And there's no one to save me

Only his charismatic smile
And his charm

And beaming luminescent love light
may save my life
And bring me safely ashore

xoxo

Hi sunglasses, hi swimsuit
Hi sandals, hi seashells,
hi sandcastles
Hi sunlight, hi sailboat
       Hi seagulls in flight
Hi scuba gear, Hi starfish
Hi waves upon an ocean
Hi beach towel, Hi golden sand
Hi coconut lotion
Hi cool refreshment
Come with me to the Sea

Wonder if Santa ever comes here
bringing gifts and good cheer,
and I wonder if snow will fall
In this great city of Jacksonville

Below ocean waves,
Giant squid larger than ships
Enjoy their home

Hope is a feeling in every child's heart
Fantastical and magical
When Santa's cherry red sleigh
passes by a super moon
Early and bright on Christmas Day

What if we awaken tomorrow
and every nation speaks words of peace
and love from the heart

Fences and walls are broken apart
and borders are no more

What if every word spoken to your neighbor
is a word of praise
Joy and happiness would follow us
for the rest of our days!

With all my heart I wish you Peace
Mom,
I Love you and miss you terribly
I hold on tightly to my Faith
that I will see you again someday
How could I not see you again
Merry Christmas Mom

A midnight chase, a werewolf's face
O' this night, so bright
So bright


As a hunter's moon of silver
does shiver and quiver
Along banks of a mighty river

sunshine and flowers
unexpected rain showers
and pretty rainbows

Perhaps and maybe 'tis true
Poetry was written on stone
many, many years before, like eons
Before an invention of a phone,
a pencil, or even a pen
Just imagine

You drive me crazy, you drive me insane
When you ask me where I'm going,
and you ask me what's my game
Am I the only one who feels this way?

I just want to scream and say
Excuse me sir, excuse me mam
Get a grip
I don't even know your name

Sleep is a quiet butterfly flying away

Silently

Sometimes poetry becomes an obsession
keeping someone awake
