Her Luscious Lips A Tantalizing Treat

A gust of cobalt blue winds grace her face
Brazen black hair outshines cerculean sky
She that dances forth with such princess grace
As if she were angel about to fly
And the woven gleam from those big blue eyes
Her luscious lips a tantalizing treat
Holding her so very tight as red sun dies
I pray true love never know its defeat
Her smile, beautiful as a floating swan
She that walks with the air of princess divine
She my Bathsheba I her loving Khan
And our life, our love making tis so fine

On silken sheets our bed bursts into flames.
Our life is true grand, as we play no games.

Robert J. Lindley, Sonnet
Feb. 19th 1975

Note: Written for my beautiful girlfriend Olivia.
She that rocks my world.

( A 6 verse poem , one quatrain and one haiku)

(1,)

Our Grandmother And Her Lime-Green House

Her garden a fantastic roses red
Her beautiful house a lime-colored green
On June sixteen she turned a young eighty
That same night she drank whiskey before bed
Woke next morning happy with a clear head
She, my grandmother, so stubborn and mean!

Robert J Lindley,
Rhyme


(2.)
Saturday Morning Going To Chess Tournament

Put my engineer boots on these big feet
Rising early to my breakfast eat
Luck is with me now, in fact over-due
I win that tournament, will not be beat.

Today Is Going To Be A Very Busy Day

porch, old dog sleeping
cat in kitchen caught a mouse
breakfast, ham and eggs

The Farm And The Absent Minded Farmer

red car, dirty road
green tractor stuck in the field
Spring rain bright green grass

Windy day, dry leaves
Rattlesnake in the driveway
Roadrunner hunting
