Poet Laureate of the Primitive Planets

Best free verse poetry on Earth

Toast of the Morning

Ocean seen
in swoosh scene, these

Chickadees and me
poetry on balcony; there

their music charms. They
break the night yoke
with tweety foam

sweet sunrise eggs over easy,
tea with cream of the morning

I wave at the day
like a splash
