Thinkers



Food for thought
Or food for cows, it
Delivers, in concentrate,
Doses of power that satiate and
Enable us to
Ruminate.

Hölchocko



Homebodies cozy
In winter,
Bears and frogs,
Even prairie dogs,
Rest when there’s little food. The
Nocturnal Common Poorwill,
A small bird of the West, prefers
To negotiate the cold and so,
In a state of torpor, the Sleeping
One remains in its
Nest.

Open wide



Alloy, ally, alas, the
Metal is not brass;
A mercurial band
Led to solid
Gold from silver, filling
A hole in oldies
Mainstream music, I’m told.

The Nod



Imagine the
Nod when the
Spirit sparks
Passion, a fiery dragon
Insisting on action; ideas
Rise fluently in
Ebullient endeavors.
Deny the Nod? Never.

Tender



Dear, favored ones invite
Affection, but sometimes
Require being admired; their
Loveliness  
Is perhaps a reflection of those who
Need to see perfection; or of their own innate
Grace.
