Embroidered Eggs
the needles poke
perforation sweet
a touch of yolk
seeps so meek
glistening coat
rivers of white
spilling on shell
an oospores light
pink and blue
a springtime rest
on grasses dew
in Sunday's best
threading a song
of festive faith
an empty tomb
for fertilities womb

Petrichor Romance
small bubbles singing
their lungs expousing
odorous music
aromatic rousing
evil pouring
lyrical foe
gradual raindrops
petrichor flow
a question of romance
tantaslizing numbness
dizzying love
blind in dumbness

Alien
it can be a "thing"
from another place
a planet or asteroid
of no known trace
often green and squeeky
antennaes on head
something to fear
but not really to dread
if you say you are "alien"
to a thing or idea
it means you are foreign
like a Martian rhea
I prefer to be alien
to many things
like violence and hate
and all the attached strings

Beautiful... a tribute to Stephen Foster (Beautiful Dreamer)
awaken my dream
meet my heart
morning and night
my perfect art
ease my pain
a baby's song lament
your crown so glistens
in glorious scent
in the softening melody
you make me languish
no more fears
or terror's anguish
the curling waves
teasing the maids
as the tales drift
in the salty air's braid
please don't fade
my majestic vision
shine on my soul
awake unto me...
DeaBeePea 4-7-15
Disappointment
I write a verse
from an idea rooted
in a morning shine
or evening muted
inspired in words
the lines come quick
and a story prevails
with a quirky trick
but it doesn't happen
to always work
so sometimes I try
to re-write with perk
but more than often
my disappointment suspends
as I leave the lines
as they are, to confusing blend

Skittles Roulette
not sure what this means
so I looked up pages
never got clear
what the meaning engages
a rainbow game
of magical fruit
landing on head
grape and lime, of sunny root
commercial humour
metaphorical reason
a candy game message
for leisure season

WINDOWS
How I love them...
a mysterious flight
into other worlds
through transparencies sight
a walk at Christmas
views velvety scenes
of candles and snow drifts
on panes so preen
mullions so cozy
they seem to imply
simple times and memories
when morning is nigh
they sing good morning
as we wake in a bedim
the sun announcing
in its glorious hymn
we would otherwise jostle
with our mind and essance
if it wasn't for windows
and their giving quintessence

Piano Lessons
probably best
to do when young
when mind unfettered
and rhythm sprung
no arthritis
or hemorrhoid pain
to create a challenge
for a sitting art strain
fingering chords
a dexterous move
memory and agility
perplexing to groove
but to think of playing
jazz in motion
would give me potential
in romantic potion
so never give up
in a serenade's wish
to entrall a lover
into devoted bliss
DeaBeePea 4-8-15
Swearing
we hear so often
a blasphemous word
coming from someone
we least expect heard
it seems there is nothing
that matters today
regarding dignity
and respectful display
no matter how frequently
I hear these words so lewd
I never adjust
my raising not skewed
I would never expect
someone in deference
if I spoke with opprobrium
a frightful reference

What's Up is Also Down
this is true
for many reasons
in particular because
of my emotion seasons
I often don't know
which way I'm going
or what direction
the wind is blowing
my mind in a spiral
no vane to guide
as I go spinning
on this merry go ride
its more like a bubble
no north or south
or east or west
just a centered best
but if the soft sphere breaks
I tumble into space
and totally fail
to define human race

LOVE
the most amazing miracle
that was ever devised
an exciting thrust
for a phenomenon prized
a volcano from heart
that lavas my world
red and hot
emotions swirled
when least expected
it peels your skin
reducing your thoughts
to a mushy therein
colours seem to blaze
songs turn to potion
my lust is spewing
in scattered motion
never defined
but yearned and craved
a lifeline of breath
and desire saved
DeaBeePea 4-14-15
Friend or Foe
I honestly don't feel
I have a foe
although there are many
who make me tow
a lot of worry
stress and horror
by showing no love
a humanity borer
but with faith and compassion
all are good
but somehow get buried
in distorted should
a global tragedy
the terrorist manifesto
it would be wonderful
if with a presto
I could end all hate
and greedy want
and gather my friends
for a happiness flaunt
DeaBeePea 4-14-15
Urban and Rural
fly over a city
and be amazed
at what you see
through the greyish haze
trees and green
clustered throughout
an urban forest
a few buildings about
so although it seems
like a concrete place
for many who live
with the urban race
it's not all hopeless
my lovers of green
both urban and rural
leave their interlocking theme

The Beanstalk
Hulitoon by Becky Hulit
the boy that climbs
an adventure deep
or miraculous ascension
into unknown reap
cow milk gone
magic beans
take him spinning
on a magic green
spiraling pods
nourish the odyssey
reaching the tomb
of ancient geodesy
a castle at cusp
a spousal greeting
hearing thunder
his courage fleeting
Fee-fi-fo-fum
is he alive or dead?
feeling his bones to grind
a sense of sudden dread
hidden in peril
a message is tuned
the gold coins enticement
taunting moral wound
the goose a wizard
with gilded cackle
and an enchanted harp
the strings a shackle
awakening fear
a chase of vine
calling for a hatchet
to sever beans spine
a tumbling brute
ends the fable
breach committed
justice in tainted label

Totally Weirdsville
Hulitoon by Rebecca Hulit
in Miami or Cuba
growing in limbo
pink coconuts
pining in luxurious bimbo
scanning for preying eyes
combing beach
juicy thorax
tempting in breach
tresses, just like
palm trees leaves
coral braids
dancing in weave
the golden sky
touched, in blue and flush
reflects the glory
of this miracle brush

Grass Stains and Cuts
TOXIC
Life can be toxic
But that is its purpose
To challenge the heart
And make us take part
To take the next step
often takes courage
and if fear overtakes us
we might miss the bus
to manage the illness
takes creative dexterity
and sprinkled with acceptance
we heal the sentence
we occasionally breath fumes
but must watch the ingestion
and keep ourselves moving
for perpetual improving
but we are the judge
of our souls and demeanor
fulfilling our placement
avoiding life’s basement
dodging the virulence
we smile in the trial
avoiding the pernicious
our label auspicious
