Beautiful Ladies

 

by Jane Penland Hoover

Some ladies

            in black hats, and

                        red flowered

Green jackets,

            have a way of entering a place,

                        making heads turn,

                                    no matter their age.

Society teaches

            to be envious of

                        beautiful young women,

                                    with tight [...]

Criminal Intent

Last minute presents

I think they call them

Bought by some at a car wash

            or an airport.

that sneaks bravely

            through clouds

that just this morning

            dusted meadows

with white [...]

Magenta Gold

 

Morning glories held by finger stems

turn and turn

glide up the sunflower trunk

and smile

their brilliant lipstick smile

as suns wake up horizons.

My mouth open slightly

eager to receive your kiss

when first you wake.

How high they climb

before they touch

the sunflower, a gold giant.

Covered this chilly [...]

Queen of the Night

Such still beauty born at night

Cereus by Sara Fryd

protected

from prying eyes of man

lighting the way in the darkness

for a heartbeat

to confirm for non believers

the true existence of God.

The cereus queen awakes

for twelve hours

so we can breathe in her light

          her smile…

until [...]
