...small beads of sweat under my thighs>>>>>>>>>>>>>>

NATURE'S JAZZ I sit low in the beach chair with small beads of sweat under my thighs, cooling in the Santa Barbara breeze listening to my breath rise and fall, and rise again. I watch flowers in your backyard, lively, draped in green stippled with pinks, purple, orange, and yellow like Monet's... Sign in to see full entry.

Palm and Cactus that don't tickle me leaves>>>>>>>>>>>>>>from poetjpb

ZOO LEAVES Elephant ear leaves, soothing balm leaves. Palm and cactus prickles that don’t tickle me leaves. Grass-like spear leaves, leaves with fuzzy puffs. Vining, falling, tumbling leaves. Fresh leaves, dry leaves, low and high leaves. Squishy leaves for squatty pigs, and lanky leaves for lean... Sign in to see full entry.

I'M FEELIN' THE NEED TO MAKE A DIFFERENCE, ARE YOU??? >>>>>>>>

NAMELESS FACES What gain is this my wealth? What gain is this only to lose my love, my family, my faith? I am feeling the need these days to make a difference. Too many bleed, too many hungry, too many needing more than I can give. Where do I begin? Who do I help? Which sorrow to soothe? I want... Sign in to see full entry.

DEDICATED TO MARS, THE PLANET>>> FROM poetjpb >>>

MAJESTY The world is hushed in quiet reverence, lost in the blackness of this night. The bright white of stars that twinkle, the stillness of the deep space wilderness.
