eucalyptus dreams

a river it runs through her dreams
wild and cold and tumbling free
drawing her nigh to the other source
warm and bubbling in constant commotion
a soothing balm to body and soul
a calming lotion

but it's something else she really craves
high on the hill it calls her name
dancing through her dreams
a never ending theme
a spell some say has been cast
one that holds forever fast
until she comes home at last
to what she wants
to what she thinks she needs
to that sweet eucalyptus

and the faerie fay will lead the way
they will not rest
they will aid in her quest
for they planted the seed
and they say it should be
it is not up to you and me
it is her destiny
that sweet eucalyptus
 

the posh piglet

the posh piglet
passed the pinnacle of phrenic and  physical,
and phased into that phantom periphery
on plump pillows,
as the periwinkle pixie
poised on petals of perfection
pondered the pooped petunia in repose.

it was plain the precious piglet
would soon again
painstakingly practice
her penchant for playing peek~a~boo at perihelion,
when rising like the phoenix
she will  proceed to the paisley pagoda,
painted in a pallette of pinks,
and join the polyophony
partaking in peach tea and petit~fours,
and playing pachisi with
plaintive and philosophical pachyderms,
who will parade with panache and pageantry
around the palace.

they will perplex the pervasive and pesky pallbearers,
who dole out papal penance to pagans in panic,
and promise periodic perks
to the persnickity perusers of perversion,
perpetually pelting the painted ladies
on party patrol in the parabolic passages.
and the priceless and phenomenal
pantalooned piglet
will win....
