The dandelions make me gay.
Their yellow blossoms brighten day
among the cow pies on display
in farmer's plot.
They serve emotional buffet
when gut's in knot.

Some people label them a weed,
but I afford such rot no heed,
because the Man Upstairs decreed
there is no skew.
Equality is guaranteed
within His view.

Grandpa Pete looked to sky and wondered when
the rain would come.
For years, he fought this dusty regimen
as mission's drum
kept driving him to work the arid field.
In fervent prayer, to God he appealed
for some relief
in his belief
the land could bring a worthy yield.

Last year, he finally gave up his stance
and passed away,
concluding perennial spirit dance
he had each day
with dilapidated barn, its roof caved in.
The rotting walls remain through thick and thin
for all to see
in memory
of Grandpa and his steadfast grin.

Welcome to my world!
I am the gateway through which
authors, poets, journalists
must pass to connect with
their audience.

Their sensuous touch
stimulates my keys to record
their precious thoughts
for posterity.

My # symbol can link
gnarly internet memes and bawdy jokes
with millions of like-minded fanatics.

The grand & joins two lovers
in tender embrace,
while the rest of us go chasing
$ around the globe.

Before long, the entire alphabet
from "a" to "z"
is joining in the party
on the cloud.

Dark clouds bestow
a manna flow
on fields below
to save the day.

The crops accept
the promise kept
when Heaven wept
on full display.

Enroute to laundromat,
I came under attack.
A pigeon stole my hat
and would not give it back,

and then his brother
dropped a present on my head
and then another
before he finally fled.

I'll take you to my secret place,
where sunlight spreads chantilly lace
across the verdant forest space.
We gather there,
away from city's frantic pace--
our pied-a-terre.

Convening squirrel, rabbit, fawn,
we meet to greet the coming dawn
and welcome grace of tardy swan
with hearty "Ciao!"
There is no need for Amazon.
It's here right now.
