lines upon a sun-daze  (  a  p o e t r y  o f  m o r n )




finder's fleas & fire eaters

kettles storming phantom castles

myrmidons & water meters

sugar lumps the sunken camel


leopard spots & chequered cheetahs

lizards rigging ruffled raffles

anagrams & sea verb beavers

bakers roll the battered barrel


melon groves & lemon squeezers

badgers bobbing rotten apples

butchery & eager cleavers

reavers reap the babble's battle


locust swarms & lotus eaters

fingers slipping - fumble grapples

summer's sleet & winter's easter's

whispers in the haunted chapel

...
























 

breadcrumbs

breadcrumbs  (  a  ?  )




a flicker in the vicarage

a tingle in the toe

a ripple in the waterbed

a footprint in the snow


a feather in the dresser drawer

a pebble in the shoe

a marble in the garden shed

a spanner in the screw


a ladder in the library

a needle in the mow

a weasel in the binary

a dagger in the glow


a clover in the grocer's store

a vista in the view

a cipher in the spider's web

a pencil in the clue

( ? )

scrawl calls

scrawl calls  (  o n e  o ‘  t h e m  p o e m  t h i n g s  )




sonnets spun of consonants

bibles swiped of b's

novels penned for ombudsmen

graphs of graffiti


hoi poloi - the corduroy blears

horns & headers three

magic maps for morris men

missing sheets of key


anagram the agar man

scrapes of symmetry

speckles in the river mist

spurts of herbal tea


squinter whiffs of potpourri

warble binary

portals in the otter ink

plods of podded pea


feather in the blether cap

flaps of tapestry

squiggles in the kitchen sink

squints of symphony


bubble bursts & stumble stubs

bubmles of the bee

doodles drawn of noodle spawn

dawdle diary


dialogues for miming troupes

notes on groceries

diatribes & scattered scribes

hagiographies


babbles on for babylon

scribbles soak the sea

saturn suns the dagger cloak

poetry of tree

...

































































































































sozzer plods

sozzer plods  (  a  p o e m  )



the trudge is fudge & brussel sprout

as cabbage spins the sauerkraut

& rivers leap the salmon trout

it's bubble in this praetor out


the thaw is gnaw & puddle daze

as badgers cask the drunken rays

& ladders snake the puzzle maze

it's sable in this mayonnaise


the stead is bread & phantom limbs

as weasels sweep the onion skins

& squinter whips the water wings

it's portal in this caudal fin


the shim is shrew & rubber ball

as butter toads the splutter scrawl

& curtains spurt the splutter crawl

it's scribble in this overhaul

...




































 

on the beans again

on the beans again  (  a  p o e m  )





hedge head

frog socks

clip claps the trot

of a phantom fox


bus bug

tin night

dim dips the sprite

of a candlelight


shrub throb

cat fawn

dog daze the map

of a mudflap morn


tree fly

flow thumb

i spell the flood

of an english spun
