Urging her to introduce him.
Your smile makes the Sun blush.
He gets embarrassed so he tip toes over the horizon
Stealing one last stare before setting.
You make boys of great men.

Condition of Education (Haiku)
Curious Query
Quote: “Is our children learning.”
No, no they are not.
Quote: “Is our children learning.”
No, no they are not.
This is a verbatim quote from George Walker (Dubya) Bush. He was commenting on the condition of public education. So sad…
Chemistry
She is of the finest shades of brown,
A caramel complexioned goddess,
Tall and slender to the eyes
But voluptuous to the touch.
Her hair curls beyond her shoulders,
Her smile, the exclamation point to what the world knows—
She is beautiful! As soon as I press my gaze upon her,
My heart double dutches,
My smile checks itself in the mirror, then postures confidently
And my entire being acknowledges and welcomes attraction.

Sunflower
Flowers are
hopeless romantics
they stretch
and grow upwards
trying to
reach the Sun.
Today,
I am your flower
Reaching for the sun,
as if there wasn't
sky and space between us.

The Problem with Love Poems
Isn’t that I wrote her one too many
It’s that she’s also a poet
And never wrote me any.

Why did you do it?
(Cool, clear, calm and collected)
Cuz God told me to.
Background:
Nat Turner led a slave rebellion in the US and murdered the families of White slave masters. When captured they asked him why did he do it, he replied "cuz God told me to."
