Always the guy
behind the green curtain
who makes out decisions
so sadly uncertain.

A Yellow Brick Road Outside of Oz

I'll travel down the yellow brick road
to clear the mind, open the soul
but not to see the wizard
for in this journey, I will find myself

RE: A Yellow Brick Road Outside of Oz

By realizing I'm smart and taking time to think
And having a heart for those who need my help
I'll screw my courage to the sticking place
And find my home at last.

RE: RE: A Yellow Brick Road Outside of Oz

Who stole the money tell them to put it back;

They told me to follow this yellow brick road and untold treasures would unfold;

They said work hard and never suffer from that demon called lack.

These fairy tales they tell us are worth so much less than the gold they stole.

Cows and Moon-pies

A cow clodded down,
the golden road through town,
eating moon-pies again,
instead of dropping them.

RE: Purple with Pink Polka Dots

We called it the Easter Egg house
And were not surprised
When one day we drove by
And the yard was full of bunnies

Purple with Pink Polka Dots

Sometimes Mom took us for a drive in the country
past the little house on the two-lane road
painted purple with pink polka dots;
we laughed to imagine the woman who must live there.

a little dog laughed

The full moon yellowed as a fingernail clipping
My mind wanders in the cool night air and I exhale my frozen breathe
My dog pulls the leash held with my glove as I pick up my pace
Perhaps he would laugh to know I am placing him in this line

If there was a purple curple
Dr. Seuss would have told us
among the Curious Crandalls
and the all-important Flummox

beyond my imagination

after all the imagined animals
The one-real as could be-
was a small painted bunting
I glimpsed down by the sea

Who paints their house lavender?
Silly girls with princess dreams
Girls who look for moonlight beams
Girls who know the rainbow's gleams
Girls like me.

No CC&Rs in Paradise

My mum-in-law's house was hot pink with pastel purple ironwork in the paneless windows--
The three little pigs, painted on the third wall, peered down on an empty pool--
Ferns and ficus and parrots and monkeys crept everywhere to take in the view.

A cow jumping under the moon

Moonlight creates magic effects: colors may change and look pretend. A purple cow dancing 'neath a full moon, casts a shadow the hue of his skin.

They say you can't rhyme orange
But then, there's purple.
What kind of poem would I write
Around the rhyme with curple?

Purple Nurple Curple?

I have always thought that rhyme is overrated.
When you force the words to fit the rhyme,
the meaning becomes outdated.

Vulnerable strength, the chain of the chink,
Only as weak as your toughest link,
The world is vibrant, yet loveless think,
That green can replace being in the pink

purple cows and fairy tales

and if i saw a purple cow
swaying under a blue moon
i'd keep the secret even now
and save myself the padded room

It's true simple human eyes cannot trust
those colors perceived at dawn or at dusk.
As new moments come as fast as they go,
hues slide the spectrum in nature's best show.

Black cats are not bad

Black cats in the day make people stay away.
Black cats in the night give people such a fright.
Black cats are not bad,
people's perceptions are so sad.

Spooky times

Green eyes questioning,
"where's my midnight treat?"
Quality, for my black cat,
comes down to "What's to eat?"

about those cows

if you've never seen a purple cow
or talked with dogs and cats,
or cast a spell, (a curse as well)
you weren't a child, perhaps.
