Hi Ku Cat

[butters]

you've filled my mind with plums
heavy, purpled
and how they may appear
once halved and pitted...
will their inner fruit be yellow
orange
or some bluish shade of red?
& dressed in unctuous goop
& nestled in the tender pastry folds
those hits of butter, spice & sugars...
oooh

 

[HarryHill]

Here in the silence
Alone with you my Ku love
Asleep in our bed.

 

[butters]

you
snuggled up with me
as i woke

 

[HarryHill]

There was poetry in me today.
after chick rescue,
poor babies, poor Rosie,
all sorted
then hand in hand to the garden,
across new mown grass,
between the Four o Clocks,
to the ruins of two months without a lawn mower,
the removal of pavers placed to step across rows,
buried in Johnson grass and Golden Rod,
and somewhere on the path to now,
the poetry was buried too.

 

[butters]

i mourn the lost poetry
happens to the best of us
finding it again
might be just as simple
as stopping to listen for it

 

[HarryHill]

Poem written between the lines of Ku's 'to do' list.

I find her in everything I see or do.
notes written

on pristine 20 weight bond
she
stays
so
busy

placing herself in the acresis
of
my life
of my life
how sweet

to have that itch scratched.

 

[HarryHill]

crossed the ocean
found a bride
seven years later she's still by your side
sounds a lot like love

Happy Anniversary Ku

 

[Lyricalli]

Awww... Happy anniversary you two!

 

[HarryHill]

Awake to thunders angry crash,
lightning, strobing, displeased wrath.
Silent, we observed the primal force,
stab the earth with fire elemental,
slowly crawl away eastward, never letting up.
Return to pillowtop sweaty covers, leaving her at the window,
watching the storm grumble away.

 

[butters]

frigid

2 a.m
a warm, thick night
windows wide to still air
you, bundled in a quilt
soak our bed with slick heat

my hand's too hot
your hand too eager
to advertise that turgid treat
—fire-brick in banked furnace—
when my desire
requires
a cocksicle

 

[enbiji]

I can write haiku
Like nobody's businees, yo
Finish with a 5
Oops my brakes aren't stopping me
Ended up in Tankaville

 

[enbiji]

I tried to create a haiku
On the bed copulating with you
But your pulsating hammerdick
Bounced me to limerick
Your meat metered me, through and through

 

[butters]

cicadas are busy awing
a sonorous roar as they sing
they won't be here long
a month and they're gone
but for now the bright skies are a-ring!

 

[butters]

cicadas hatch once in a gen
a 3 or a 7 +10
they don't bite or sting
and they have shiny wings
but how do they tell when is when?

 

[Hotcoffee123]

Open
Enter
Thrust until
You explode

 

[enbiji]

Try haiku again
Magic voice inside my head
Now it falls in place

 

[HarryHill]

that's novel, didn't see that one, of course I'm not a voyeur, hence I wouldn't see it he said

Miss you Twelve O.

I owe her so much,
a debt that can never be paid in
