Double Rainbow
I
Sunlight through rain
Splits prisms into
Glorious colours
Exquisite to view.
Amethyst and amber,
Emerald and sapphire,
Arc above our eyes
And make us admire.

A veil of tears
The Plug-in Drug
No pointed needle is needed
To flood your bloodstream
And saturate your brain
Even poison your dream.
This drug is given via sockets –
The source is truly electric,
Buttercup Wish
Golden glow beneath
Your chin could predict a love
To last forever.

White Butterflies
White butterflies fall
From a cloudy winter sky
Covering green blades
And there is where they will lie,
Slowly melting like a sigh.
‘Tis a pity they
Only dance for a short while,

The Feminine Sanctuary
There is this very special place
That’s out of bounds for man
To set foot there would be a disgrace
Your life would go down the pan!
Personal privacy is paramount
Spiral Staircase
Black and white film noir
Hitchcock silver screen suspense
Bloodcurdling screams reign.

Little raindrops drip
Cool, clear liquid refreshment
To revive us all.

Your Silhouette
Before the final golden rays
Of the burning orange sun
Cease to dance in lovely ways
Around clouds soft spun
Your silhouette enchants me
And makes my spirits rise,

To get her
To get her
Looking into my eyes
And kindly interpreting my sighs
I sit close beside her,
Awaiting tender replies.
To get her
To gently hold my hand
And, no longer feel an Island
~ To A Daisy ~
I don’t have to wait till night
To see a star shine so bright
For, on the grass I see you there,
A lone white star that makes me stare
As, often I have seen you shine

Rachel's Sympathy
A violin string calls
From a chord pressed,
A heartstring trembles
From within her breast,
A puppet string snaps
From the stress and the strain,
Sympathetic sounds

Seven Roses
Upon an old cottage window-sill
Within a white chipped vase
Seven pale roses droop,
Pensively looking at the stars;
The Pleiades, the “Seven Sisters”
Burn faintly up in the sky

Her Pearl Necklace
Opalescent tints seem
To burn like a rainbow fire
Glowing round her neck,
Enhancing her fine beauty
Leaving me stunned and speechless.
By Candlelight
Yellow flame flickers
Shadows dance upon the wall
Love grows ever strong.

Stingray Ballet
A warm, clear turquoise sea
Is the stage of a beautiful scene,
A majestic stingray ballet
Paints a picture so serene.
Like giant black butterflies
Flying in a liquid sky,
