I dog-ear waterfalls,
like memory pages
in God’s premier issue
of all time naked beauties.
Their roaring words slam
onto indifferent rock ears,
tangling strands
of green and white,
always flowing,
always pulling me
into the never ending
wetness of a first love
Originals are better than remakes.
About Me
- Pat Paulk
- 2009! 57 years ago in April I was a 2# squealing baby boy. Got a wonderful tan in an incubator. Made friends with plastic tubing, needles and tape. All of which I have zero recollection. I've been well watered and fertilized over the years, and grown quite ripe. Plastic tubing, needles and tape are catalysts for flashbacks without the buzz. Enjoy!

oh yes :)
dog-eared waterfalls... wow!
pure liquid silk.
I think you can put this one under the red tack.
Your unique vantage point of life bleeds through this poem. You defy the epxected in your word choice. And, that's a compliment.
Their roaring words slam
onto indifferent rock ears,
tangling strands
of green and white,
Just how it is. Great imagery in your words. Wizard!
DAMN SEXY POEM!

love "I dog-ear waterfalls/
like memory pages"
(P.S. Please forgive me PP, for not visiting more often. Real life has been more of the usual challenge, but my husband is on the mend.)

How absolutely spot on Pat...and such delicious imagery.
Ah I remember it so well, now romance competes with rap music and a house full of teenagers
Wow!
I would say more like liquid oxygen! Aha..
I have a hit and miss internet connection down here on the beach in southern alabama. I've typed my thank yous 3 times and lost them. So I'll quickly say thanks before I make it a fourth. Thank you all!!
