Poem May 22nd 2016: In Memory of Ross Cork by Blair Gaulton

This poem is in memory of a good friend of mine Ross Cork who passed away in Auroville, India on My 19th. I had the good fortune of being involved with him in the Munich Writers Group in Munich Germany. We spent many hours together in discussion debate and laughter.

In Memory of Ross Cork
Your wisdom words wit
and insightful observations.
Profound yet simple explanations;
would show us another way 
to see the world. 
You would inspire thought writing
and conversation.
They are treasures of you;
that live on in our memories.  
You are unforgettable
and will be sorely missed my friend.

Be like a blade of grass!
You’ll discover a way;
to find solutions
‘n’ turn a frown into a smile;
as you go through
your kilometers ‘n’ miles
of living.

May we go on;

Take critics ‘n’ naysayers
with a grain of salt.
All they want to do is find fault;
‘n’ disrupt your focus ‘n’ thought.
Use them as motivation ‘n’ inspiration
to go on.
You will succeed
and have the pleasure
to hear them sing another song.
They will never admit about 
being wrong.
Suddenly they always believed
you would make it after all.

contaminating ‘n’ diluting;
its scent. 
Protesting;
it wants a reduction
in the rent!

Poem Mar 2nd 2016

Rant
Excessive political verbal discharge;
proves you can use your mouth;
as a form of entertainment.
Dare you use it;
to make something wrong, right?
Or put people or humanity 
ahead of ideology?
Not likely..

Absurd Snippets by Blair Gaulton

Inspired through a conversation with Paul and Sharon

Absurd Snippets
Did you do bad things
with my phone?
So you ordered
80 scones,
and a chuck wagon of 
ribs ‘n’ straps;
trying to do an absurd rap;
about the cat. 
The bony scones;
laugh ‘n’ roam; 
while bungee- jumping 
through the ocean’s foam.

Poem Feb 17th 2016

A Portrait of Life
I have lost;
I have won.
Been smart ‘n’ dumb.
Done crazy stupid things.
Soared;
crashed;
come undone.
Been afraid;
spoken words, 
I’ll never repeat again.
Been right and wrong.
Been good ‘n’ bad;
happy ‘n’ sad. 
Been labeled
‘n’ called many things.
Found and lost love;
Refuse to give up;
in spite of the pain.
Keep on living;
much to learn and gain;
You’ll find many good people,
friends, those who you love,
‘n’ treasure along the way.

The Argument by Blair Gaulton

Another poem which I wrote today; which was inspired by the weather.  :-)

The Argument 
Rain ‘n’ snow argue.  
You are frozen rain; says rain to snow.  
You are wet snow; says snow to rain.   
Sleet jumps in; I am the best of both.   
The cloud shouts. 
Stop arguing ‘n’ complaining;  
you all come from the same source.  
Everything else is snobbery.

Together,we sail from this place

Poem Feb 9th 2016

How A Clown Fights Being Down
Sat down;
with a burning frown;
scalding him deep inside.
As people pass by;
grinning he makes them laugh ‘n’ smile;
with his faces ‘n’ moves.
Boisterous laughter approves;
as he trips over his own shoes.
Their laughter saves him;
from his excruciating blues.

The Skunk’s Dream
The funky monkey
avoids skunky;
who thinks he hunky ‘n’ chunky.
One or these days;
the skunk complains.
He’ll do an ad campaign
‘n’ commerical.
Then everyone will exclaim
his defensive smell;
drives everyone insane;
in a good way;
instead of driving them away.

Discovery
Words butterfly across the page;
leaving me spellbound;

It is not about success

rather giving
permission to express yourself
‘n’ to speak.

Absurd Thought of the Day Jan 9th 2016
A steak rapping in a commerical extolling the virtues and vitamins in eating chicken, fish, lamb and diverse vegetables.  Comparing them all from a supermarket, a super store, a farm, an organic farm, a hydroponic growing facility and advising the people watching to go and vote for a jellyfish instead of any of the other candidates  running for office.
