Beauty Contest

Week-long visit, day number one
Park lawn sketched in emerald green
Plain Jane’s face to the morning sun
Eyes more green than gem has ever been

Sky brilliant blue, day number two
Outdoor bookstore, couldn’t ask for more
Yet sapphire eyes change the answer to
How Cinderella-in-sweats pries open doors

Autumn’s umber, midweek’s day in town
Coffee shop Ms propped in her corner nook
Glasses off unveil her gentle browns
Eyes more rich with story than any book

Clouds rule the next and fourth day
When a silver fox, grandchild in tow
Eyes of grey to steal one’s breath away
A poet’s dream takes flight and flows

Ticket in pocket before heading back
To crowds and city life’s frantic pace
When exotic eyes of sloe-eyed black
Make one’s heart skip and race

A week away to dodge the daily drudge
To fall in love again and not to judge

~

interview question
does karma reach to the stars
judgement call is ours
when we try for admittance
as aliens to their shores

~

lost dog wandering
loose chain, leather mask, face grill
can’t hide pleading eyes
judgement made that he would die
slack skin, jutting bones set free

~

5-7-5 x 2

tennis was the court
career at end, call too close
judgement went to love

~

misjudged the moment
faced with coming elections
truth got in the way
