  • Days of Wine and Roses

    The days
    of wine and roses
    palm trees green
    leaves dangling in bronze breeze sea
    fallen fronds found for tiki faces
    carved with pocket knives
    in soft dry wood
    of branch stalk deep eyes
    and sharp shell teeth
    long slender days
    fat pug noses
    and sunburnt legs
    beaches galore
    nevermore
    a sober sunset for two
    the days
    of wine and roses
    are here.
