No Wet Kisses

Timothy Price76 Comments

Orange clouds rolled overhead
Dragging sheets of fickle rain
Never touched the ground

Parched earth’s cracked and broken clay
Yearned to be covered with rain’s wet kisses
Left dried, curled, flayed

Dry & Night

Timothy Price63 Comments

Plowed earth lies barren
Fertile ground parched and thirsty
Spilled seeds will not grow

Moon tunnel lights night sky
Portal to the other side
Hallucinations sleeping souls
Keeper of our dreams

Jupiter sits on Sandia Crest
Saturn basks in a golden glow
Stars still hang in space

Midnight rainbow hangs at two
Stars peek through smokey hues
Brushstrokes blotches arcs
Orange, greens, magenta, blues

Jupiter rising into blue
Saturn sees the moon at two

Snowbound

Timothy Price55 Comments

Blown by icy winds
Tumbled to the ground
On edge stuck like a knife
Snow rough, trodden
Out of reach
Sun’s warming grip
Snowbound waits its fate…
Snow melts sets it free
Or…
Stepped on, crushed underfoot

White Spider

White spider in asphalt space
Forever longing for the tree
Shelter from unforgiving sun
Escape from infinite tires
There is consolation
From the screeches
When unobservant souls discover
They stepped on a spider

Yin-Yang Kitties

Sasha & Gwendolyn

Yin-yang Kitties
Curled up in a ball
Cold winter morning
Hoarfrost at the door

Purring in harmony
Dreams of catching birds
Lizards chased around the house
Leaping on a big fat mouse

Unlucky in the hunt
Wake to get a bite
Same old kitty food
Mouse Mousse would be alright

Spider Spunku

Timothy Price86 Comments

Spunk is rather proud of himself and his Spunku about barking spiders. One thing that’s different about a Spunku is that it rhymes.

Oh my what delight
Spiders barking in the night
Holding sheets down tight

Jumping Spider

Søren: “Hahahaha! A barking spider? Right! It needs ‘more cowbell’ stupid cat!”
