James Gibbons Poems

It flashes it's message
in a dream state
world of somnolent absurdities
Making up the universe
...

The sun beams danced,
they danced on the roof,
and they danced with the trees,
and they danced on the branches,
...

The purser said to don the jackets, With a smile, another drink, replied I, of course complied

Forty foot of black steel plate From sea to white laced rail. Pride of the White Star Line. Record crossing, wonder of the seven seas. New technology, built unsinkable!
...

Shimmering sensuous force
iridescent morning's glory
the velvety spotted butterfly
is drawn to the buttery blossom
...

Shimmering sensuous force
iridescent morning's glory
the velvety spotted butterfly
is drawn to the buttery blossom
...

Sandwiched between
layers of confusion.
The red flush of betrayal, gut punched when first felt.
...

One Being

I am breathless, foundering, awe struck
Can't conceive One Being!
...

People were weeping
in the White House.
His steps echoed down the hall,
past the red and green rooms.
