Best Tuesday Poems

Hints of lilac filtered through the garden
a pretty butterfly just sat at rest
me  lost in amazement
soft rays of sunshine clinging to my chest

The stone bench held my attention
as love notes floated through the air
my heart was in a flutter
sensing she was near

Her eyes were...

TOP GUN.

A keen jet pilot broke the speed of sound
A loud sonic boom he caused on the ground
House windows were broken
The whole town awoken
Claims from lawyers to the air force abound...
 
SANTA ON THE RUN

Santa got pulled over on the highway
Cops told him a light...

Happy Souper Tuesday
To my buddies on the Soup!
Despite our different backgrounds
We’re united as a group.

We put our thoughts in writing
Hoping other souls will read,
Acknowledgement the one reward
We really want or need.

If we could meet in person,
Very few of us would bond
And not because we’re states...

"I'm hearing images, I'm seeing songs no poet has ever painted
Voices call out to me, straight to my heart"

Cold, emotionless, and her nature, defiant 
Hard to connect with as well as unreliant
A boarding school for outcasts such as Wednesday
Revenge for brother, brings on her sinister...

~ GREEN JELLO ~ 

A fellow from an archipelago
Puts on caps and hats made of green jello
   Doesn't care what you think
   His short pants shocking pink
Wears lipstick and rouge too ~ bright hot yellow

My phone came alive on a Tuesday
Forgetting to notify me
Remember the old party line?
She decided to get on and add to our conversation.

“I feel blue,” my friend said.
The phone laughed.
There was silence. 
“Is someone else on this line?” I asked.

“Wasn’t that you?” My friend said....

Tom Price phones up John Ely. 

"I hear you sell some of the best horses in the county 

I'm sending out my best guy if he likes the goods 
we're buying one of your horses. 

My guy is a midget with a speech impediment just...

You are so grown now.
11 years old and seem like 26.
No mom, just me, and you are happy,
Thank you, God, for the gift of patience.
Honor student, eminently popular and talented.
Long hair, beautiful eyes and just as clumsy as me.
So smart for one so young, innocence...

Monday's child eats beans,

Tuesday's child is full of Greens,

Green's payments of spinach....

I am a misprint,
Ink blot on love,
I remain a maybe
Longing for fact,
No speck of lint,
A hand in glove.
Thunder; a baby
Will only react

When you etch
Parallel clouds,
Whistling on cue
To a dead town.
Dream a sketch
Of silent crowds
Becoming you,
This boiling crown

Chews thought
Into flagellation.
Holes in the walls
To spy through,
Seeking a...

settles on weary eyes. Gone.
Why so quick Tuesday?...

Masked trickery within bayou nights
Under the diffusing Dixie lanterns glow
Flowing songs lost within legend and myth
Dancing with a quipster and pierrot 

Lovers and friends hidden in masquerade
In sequined illusions and beaded dancing 
These candid moments fading into night
Mirroring the revelry of years long past

Bal masque...
