Boil and Bubble

Poem....Boil and Bubble

I look into the depths of humanity's soul
I stir the clouds of hope and discontent
Hope shines like distant stars
Revolving in a galaxy unknown
A journey we hope to make
Before the lights grow dim
And we can no longer see our way
I say the words of boil and bubble
A witch waiting to bring on trouble
But alas we know not that witch
Nor among us who she may be

Coloured Consequences

Poem....Coloured Consequences

Consequences painted red
Unintended so they said
Why not painted blue
Question in my head

Not for you to question
Only for us to say
Red is our decision
Now go on your way

Well my choice is now purple
Don't care what you say
I own these consequences
Try red another day

Bright Penny

Poem....Bright Penny

I look down
Bright Penny shining
Should I walk on
Leaving this find for others
Perhaps one searchiing for joy
This shiny heads-up could give
I look back as I walk on
That shiny spot shrinking from view
It bridges a sidewalk crack
It's intent now meant for others

A gift from the gods

Poem.....A gift from the gods

Clouds roll in
Silver-Gray streaks emerge
White flashes punctuate
White ice marbles roll about
The gods are angry
And fling their jagged bolts
Or perhaps an angry orchestra leader
Demanding more base strings
Faces turn purple
Hands turn red
The music peaks
Then a heavenly silence
The soft patter of rain
A gift from the gods

Colour Abstraction

Poem.....Colour Abstraction

Purple swirls
Red curls
Black fills inbetween
Grays move in and out
One side gray
The other side green
Splashes of sienna
Starting their drip
I put down my paintbrush
Give my coffee a sip
