"wowed" poems
We made love under a tree crazy me and obsessed thee Ah! holding each other so tight at the peeking pale twilight. Caressing you from the nose, sliding way down to your toes; I made the chills run down your skin kissing your cute trembling chin. Locking your soft lips with mine I used my tongue to give you a sign. Closing the eyes, you went with the flow You ripped my pant off and dragged it low Excited by your aggressive touch, I slowly removed your clothes. And when I undid your red bra you drew me closer and moaned ‘aahh’ You smelled sweet like the fresh smiling flowers And you were all mine for quite a few hours Your rapid hot breathe lured me more and more I bit your ******* took our emotions to the core. Delicately I went down and licked your **** that seemed to have aroused you a bit. Then you scratched my back with your nail I was happy to see my moves leaving a trail. Thus, it was time to go for the ultimate bliss So I pulled you closer and gave a passionate kiss Gently I resided my hardness in you to quench our lust Up and down I moved but tenderly at first With each swift push, you moaned loud by seeing your amazing charm, I was wowed. Time passed as we kept letting ourselves free And this is how we made love under a tree.

Adult poetry (18+)
There is burden on my creativity Cos I think i'm too good not to blow up with it. There is burden on my creativity Trying to balance the pride not to overshadow the joy. There is burden on my creativity Cos I've made folks believe this is the way. There is burden on my creativity Sigh! I can't fight writer's block yet. There is burden on my creativity I've made some sacrifices and I'm set on going all out. There is burden on my creativity I think I need to start blazing trails. There is burden on my creativity Dad must reap his fruits of labour. There is burden on my creativity I can't get out and start searching for jobs, not with this talent. There is burden on my creativity It needs to touch people souls. There is burden on my creativity I want peeps to get wowed. There is burden on my creativity I must be able to do it a bit more easy. There is burden on my creativity How can I amass wealth? My **** and kids must not sweat.

Don't we two hearts oft seem to tread on common sands? A common thread appears to bind with no great dread, with not a word, between us, said. The rhythm of your ebb, my flow, as fate takes us where we might go, so coincide, suspicions grow- is there some plot we can't yet know? Your face I see, in maddened crowd, with silence that echoes aloud. If coincidence, I'm wowed- if cosmic hand, it should be proud. As subtle as sand on the wake, who knows where next our waves will break? Adrift on currents we both take- The Cosmos makes no such mistake.

Along the Same Lines
If I had found a magic lamp in 1982, And it produced a genie, As magic lamps are wont to do, And the genie granted me one wish, Not three or even two, I’d have wished to have a daughter – A daughter just like you. She’d be the perfect baby, she’d never cry (too loud), She’d be smart - almost a genius, My friends would all be wowed! She’d be a scholar AND an athlete, She’d stand out in every crowd, She would win at everything she tried, And make me very proud! She be cute just like her Mother, Blue eyes, and long blond hair, Though her smile might sometimes cover A sadness in her heart, There could never be another, If the genie did his part. I don’t believe in genies, the magic lamp I must have missed. I’ve never found a princess, In any frog I’ve ever kissed. But of all the things that I AM proud of, At the far top of the list, Is the daughter that I wished for, Because she DOES exist. I love YOU, Keri!

Magic Lamps and Wishes
There was never before heard Such a cacophony As the day I witnessed The vegetable medley 'Since you've bean gone' They blasted out The runners and broads joined in song They could have rocked it all night long But it was Taters turn They  rocked  the stage The veggies went wild The 'monster mash' was all the rage Then was petit pois chance to shine He wowed them with a dance Then made the broccoli sway and weep With 'Give peas a chance'

Vegetable medley
Everyone has a dark side But there's no shadow without light With you, the shadows of my heart subside I wish to once more hold you tight To again witness the beauty of your eyes Eyes I could lose myself in, if time allowed Eyes so blue, they rival the open skies When I catch your gaze I'm instantly wowed When I'm with you, pure ecstasy surges through my veins Unsure if I'm dead or alive, in heaven or just dreaming For the tenderness of your touch alleviates my pains Your touch that tickles so much I feel like screaming! At last, when it's time to part our ways I hold your hand for as long as possible Because the euphoria will soon die and leave me in a haze If only I could defeat time, the unbeatable obstacle So that our joy will never have to cease However, all good things must come to an end I know I can't stay, I need to release And pray for a chance that I might see you again

Prom Night
The year 1966. Manson was on his spree Hippies chilled the breeze. Chicks dancing with rubies on hips. Then came 1967 Hendrix wowed the crowd Janis Joplins soul came out Music splashed Hallucinogenic heaven. 1968, patterns of clothing Seemed to be from faraway. It wasn't American to the main stream Still wouldn't be today. 1969, Woodstock, the time Of all togetherness, and weightless Rockers heads filled with dust and buds. Cities broke to riots Gangbanging quiets over colors lust! 1970, met grandmammy Touched the farmers scene. Found the happy In the sixties baby in me. Today, now a mountain boy On a machine that cuts down anything In its way. The farming hand Making a living off of dirt and hay. Spit and clay.

Yesterday she was nowhere to be found In the earth or under the earth. Suddenly she is all here - a bright soon Of a tomorrow in earnest and potluck joy, embers and pyres, iris and the merriment of ochre. A star groomed by outer space - spilling wet ash And fissured out by the tailored saw of the wood. Now something is stirring in the smolder. We call it a girl. Still wowed. She has no idea where she is. Her eyes, chalcedony stones, explore ripening doomsday and an ivory moon rock. Is this the world? It confuses her. It is a great numbness. She pulls herself together, rousing to the new weight of things And to that maternal figure nuzzling her, and to her down burrow. She rests From the first infinite shock of light, the empty laze Of the curious and their curious questions - What has happened? What am I? Her ears keep on inquiring, blissfully. But her legs are impatient, Mending from so long nothingnesses Her tiny hands are restless with ideas, they start to try a few out, Swaying this way and that, Grasping for balance, learning fast - And she's suddenly upright And stretching - a giant hand Strokes her from top to toe Perfecting her outline, as she tightens The knot of herself. Now she comes to - Bold, beautiful - Argentina Over the weird world. Her nose crimson and magnetic, draws her, consciously sounding, A petite yaff, aimed towards her mother. And the world is warm And gentle and softens her daze. Touch by touch Everything fits her together. Soon she'll almost be a woman. She wants to be a Woman, Pretending each day more and more Woman Till she's the perfect Woman. The immortal Woman Will surge through her, weightless, unbound, a twirling flame Beneath silver gusts, It will coil her eyeballs and her heels In a single outlaw fright - like the awe Between mortar and firework. And curve her neck, like a crocodile emerging from the placid pond Among lilies, And fling the new moons over her shimmery banner, All the full moons and the dark moons. Booming, ineffable delight.

Chronic, demonic, eccentric, magic, poetic, tragic! Dreams it seems of comical or unusual! Visual sights of many sites! Plenty fights, heights, nights, plights and lights! Dreams it seems of chimes, crime, gleams and grime. Moonbeams, rhymes, screams and times. Dreams it seems as they attempt to tempt with contempt! Some become exempt and unkempt! Dreams it seems of afros, arrows, buffalos, rainbows and sparrows! Ample, purple-apples hung from chapels! Dreams it seems of hurdles and simple people as pimples jumping from steeples! Dreams it seems of the begotten, forgotten and rotten. Dreams and themes of cotton candy clouds! Crowds in shrouds! Dreams it seems of the dandy and handy! Glories and gory stories of the holy or unholy. Dreams it seems of crud and mud! The loud and proud! The vowed and wowed! Dreams it seems of blood and floods! Dreams it seems of amazing, crazing and gazing! I’m phrasing; “Is this a dream a scheme or hell?” Well I couldn’t tell! As I began to scream and yell! Those streams of dreams that I dream… Dreams that I may, these dreams that I say. Dreams it seems in dreamy dismay.

POEM ENTITLED: “DREAMS IT SEEMS”
It took a very long time for A to find B, and possibly even longer for A with B to get to C, then D shadowed, and along came easy E, F hurried, G stumbled, and before you know it, H pushed, I shoved, J fell, K and L bullied, doormen and bouncers hired, and hooked red velvet guest rope installed. M and N showed legs and other stuff, O accommodated, P arrived peeing and puking, Q wandered in by mistake, R flashed cash, S slid unscathed, T grinned teeth, U did what? V spread, W wowed, and the rest, X, Y, Z, is history. If death is nothing, why fear it? Is it the indifference of nothingness that disturbs the living? All the energy and effort spent? Unfinished business? Dead silence? Or is it the tickle on skin of summer breeze? Astonishing possibilities? Privilege of existence? There are moments when I almost do it, a very fragile brink, I want to call, see, be with her so bad. No matter what, I miss, adore her intelligence, sense of humor, moods, body, beauty. Why? If death is nothing, why fear it? Eyes perceive group of young men approaching momentary assumptions of danger passes as inner fear and distrust process high-spirited partying. Z: “This is confusing. Put your thoughts in order.” Y: “But there is no true order.” Z: “Before you speak another word,       what you got to bring to the table?       Money? Property? Prestige?” Y: “I offer poetry, ash drawings, new architecture.” Z: “Lay it on the line, you ****** or be punished!” Y: “I’m sorry. I didn’t mean to upset you.” Z:  “Burn this ******* on a stake,        then eat remains.” ******** runs in pleading for dickwad’s life, but it’s too late. ******** sits chewing charred flesh at table. Biscuits get passed around vigorously. No talk about death. A: “Who’s the one?” B: “You are, Daddy.” A: “But I’m just a tiny force of nature.” B: “Let’s go see about C.” A: “Am I not enough for you?” C: “What and where is love?       Is it an illusion       I strive for an impossible chance?       When will we find each other?       Will I feel belonging?”

Years pile up like leaves another winter of slumbering trees The oranges and the rusts oil me please so that I not yield to dust I sympathize with the trees and the wildlife, left to survive a Winter's frost they are the strong, the invincible and on us, that should never be lost I can only admire God's strength within them, as I stand with mouth agape Nothing on this earth has ever wowed me more than ....

Regretfully, I only know me
After cocktails at Luigi's Bar, and then The Golden Bowl, I proposed we play a gig of jazz-inspired rock and roll. We all thought we'd make the fans cry out for encores every night. But our schemes were dreams that faded in the morning's ruthless light. My blue guitar should captivate the people every night. But the dream crumbled, the dream tumbled. My dream faded out of sight. Playing keyboards was Patricia. (Never 'Trisha', never 'Pat'.) She'd a taste for gracious living in her small art deco flat. She would practice chord progressions, sipping lapsang souchong tea. Then she played away at weekends with her special friend, Marie. She trained her dainty fingers to explore new grooves each night. But the dream crumbled, the dream tumbled. Her dream faded out of sight. We had Ritchie on electric bass, with tap-and-pull technique. Such a clever devil — Ritchie almost taught the bass to speak. Ralph the drummer's backbeat cymbal crashes measured out the bars. We agreed the speed — then found we could not play like superstars. Would the crowd be wowed by passion from my lovely blue guitar? No, the dream crumbled, as the band stumbled. Our dream faded overnight. The Blue Guitar Quartet was as close as we could get to our vision for the music of today. But we bumbled and we fumbled, our aspirations humbled. So we slowly put our instruments away. "The Blue Guitar Quartet is down, but not out yet. With practice you will crack it," said Marie. "Let Patricia be your singer; she's a musical humdinger, and as soulful as a solo girl can be". "She can improvise a blues based on any riff you choose. Let's have handshakes and embraces — this quartet is going places! Here's to jazz-rock, and The Blue Guitar Quartet!"

the warmth of summertime, you can almost taste it, thankful for the sunshine, not a second wasted, faced with a warm breeze, pines become palm trees, swaying in the wind, as if they embraced it, these days are made with, the feel of your grace, the smile on your face, resting on my pillowcase, there is no other place that can match this second, so i hold on to this moment, trust, i've learned my lesson, cause the summertime will soon become winter fury, and your smile, in that summer, it's the only thing to cure me, and surely, the only thing that keeps me sane, is knowing you're still the same, and neither snow, nor rain, can change you, you're the summer, in snow, you've got that special glow, that i hope is only known, by me, cause honestly, if they were to see, what i can see, they would break you down, bottle you up, and sell your soul, like ecstasy thats what you do to me, and it may sound twisted, but the warmth that you bring, is a gift that was lifted, from a place that only be amongst the clouds, you are the brightest light, shining in a massive crowd, and I'm wowed by your grace, there is no other place, that can erase, your face smiling on my pillowcase, i'll retrace those seconds in my mind, because you, are the taste of summertime.

"Faith can move Mountains." I've read in some book. Now mind over Melon can be done with a look. Hooked up by electrodes, a test subject's brain exploded a melon and fried some plantains. The Watermelon trick sure excited the crowd. The comedian, Gallagher, truly was wowed He's been in the hospital, truly heartsick. Physically unable to keep doing his Schtick . Soon, with his brain, He'll resume his pursuit, popping jokes while exploding some innocent fruit.

The Power of Thought
She lives to love a man who once could sing his way into the hearts of many crowds; once strong enough to pick up anything with either back or mind. Her man had wowed the critics with his skill with a guitar, with songs that brought salt water to the eyes and lyric laughter. Could have been a star, connections came and left, not realized. The cracking voice now breaking hearts instead, the left hand hanging, useless, by his side. His back is bent, his heart is weak, his head is filled with possibilities untried. What's left of him can barely take her hand... and yet... and yet, she lives to love her man.

People are looking at your shoes Heels, sandals, flats with a moose Boots, converse, whatever you choose People are looking at your shoes If x is one and y is two My shoe is me and your shoe is you Laces, bows, straps or buckles It could leave me wowed or staring with chuckles People are looking at your shoes Heels for status Laces for class Boots for the rugged Buckles for sass Shoes tell a story of the places we've tread If we are hungry or if we're well fed Shoes paint a picture of how we view life One fun adventure or if we need a knife People are looking at your shoes But hey, I say walk bare footed by the sea and be free, be free to be you Because people are people and you are you

People are looking at your shoes
They stare, she smiles, they grin, she observes. They pity, she's queasy, they brood, she walks away-- life as a lady with a crutch. I smile, they hail, I step out, they celebrate, I emit knowledge, they are wowed; I struggle to fit in, they support. I try to be unique just as I am, but the struggle within, no one seem to care; life as a man, a physically challenged survivor. They celebrate our strength, but our weakness imprisons us, they profess their love, a love that soon fades away; they show their care, but we just want to be hale. They assure us of a bright future-- a future they would never dare to feature in. They speak, they wish, they support, but we always want more because our defects make us different.

Our Differences
As I step through the door Of my office - Doughnuts Galore Mildred from behind the counter nods her head at me I come here every day for a few Jelly doughnuts and nasty brew Looking for the perfect job that keeps eluding me I again pick up the daily rag Scouring the classified ads Hoping to find something interesting I see My bladder lets lose At the greatest of news In Black and White Bold Type face do I read Wanted lead guitarist in An up and coming Air Rock Band Mildred comes and picks me up off the floor I went and applied for the job And with a wink and a nod They said your exactly what we're looking for We practice day and night Hitting all the notes right Till our Air Rock Band was ready for tour The crowds we all wowed As we brought down every house In venues we played up and down the Eastern shore From top forty pop To industrial techno rock There wasn't a song we couldn't toast We even threw a few polkas in Sounding sweeter than sin Cause Brian the drummer likes polka the most We finally hit the big time When we went nation wide The Greatest Air Rock Band the worlds ever known But as fast as we went to the top That's just as fast as we dropped Dead air was all you heard from us on the radio

The Rise And Fall Of The Worlds Greatest Air Rock Band
i. at Beggar’s Pond with cousin I seen this bullfrog leap open mouthed from a mud bubble at a low bird and it took the bird to depths. we wowed our way through reenactments but there was no betraying. frog thrash nor bird thrash came to relieve the sight which had passed had become our post. ii. men on break from the hauling of your stretchered father men parked yonder. my long stick tied to yours and may our greatest concentration be with us may it scoot god over. iii. this ladder once leaned on the Tower of Babel. black cat, these are the jokes. as crow & thunder battle. iv. then again, a pair of babysitting sisters thought he was plenty fine like a little ******** tornado. v. I look it up about bullfrogs.

Distract me from missing him Because I'm missing the home I made on his lips And in his eyes I'm missing how safe I felt Wrapped up in his voice Getting lost between his skin Felt as if I was floating on a golden cloud Oh I felt so wowed And even silencing my thoughts Went so smoothly for him That I almost wondered if he was my Castiel If we were ever meant to be.. If he was my Eric,and I was his Ariel And if we could live beyond the sea.
