Now that it's July, let's go to the beach! It's true that as I type this, Corpus Christi (where Juan took these pictures) is 82 degrees at the very early hour of 7am, but no matter.... Enjoy the poems and pictures!

Surf Maiden
Where are you heading
Crimson Gold ,
tossing your head with a
mop of curls ?
You’ve captured my mind
, my breath , my soul ,
My longingness , my lady
, my girl .
I found you Blossom among the stars
on a moon lite night of
fun .
Accompanying friends ,
wandering bars ;
A glow to all ; intimate
to none .
Smooth arrowbesk woman
of chatter ,
Flow of grace , style ,
and lavender .
Search . Seek . Know not
what matters .
Tuned out to passes ,
jerks , and scavengers .
Where are you going
Duchess of sands .
You’ve taken my soul ,
my whit , my mind .
Notice not the awe
of longing fans ,
my liveliness , my lady
, my love .
Saunter , stride , o’er
envious lands .
Turning heads ,
considering surf .
Goddess unknowing ;
designed for man .
Romp and tease , child
of murf .
Throw your sandals ,
Energy Bound .
Garments lost ; tossed
in towels .
I envy the swells
splashed in sounds .
Diva of hoots and howls
.
Will you come with me to
castle far ?
Bring your elegance of
no par .
You’ve taken my life ,
my breath , my soul ,
My Loveliness , My Lady ,
My Love .

Dripping Dilemma
Smooth
dreamy , oh so creamy , my ice cream cone
Soft crunch , for lunch , you are mine
Cool the heat , summer's seek , luring sign
Frosty tune , belly boom , freezy come home
A party is waiting with scents so baiting , hurry Sue Joan
We're anxious here , precious dear , please stay
in line
Looks inviting , spied a siteing , surely time
You're tempted so , head to toe , won't you phone
?
Our Lady here
, was sent for beers , expected back soon
She stopped for treat , passion meet , it's so
past noon
Our wings are drying ; temper's are flying
A houseful waiting ; you've had your whim
Lose this sighting ; no sense lying
You've chocolate on your chin !

CAFETERIA BOP
Students start to
hustle; the ladies start to tussle; get out of here and hit the road .
I’m here at this
table, looking all around .
I spy her and she is
fine .
Dressed-up in lace; look
at that face; oh, style and grace .
She shakes me to my
timberlines .
Who you a starein’; sit there a glarein’ .
Don’t you been taught
better; leave a lady alone ?
You’re not so hot; sit alone a lot. I’ll be here tomorrow .
My friends ain’t a
leavein’; don’t start a grievein’. I gotta go .
Yea, here I’m just a
thinking ; yea, I see her a blinkin’ .
I’m into my
Lincoln; sister give me a nod..
Students start to
hustle; the ladies start to tussle; get out of here and hit the road.
Tell me sister; I’m a good listener ;
can’t hang around a
while; like your sheets .
See, I be cool;
I run my own game; I gotta be
free .
I’m too a cookin ; gotta
be a lookin’. Sis, got some time ?
Do what you wanna ? Man, take a gonna .
My life is fine; like a quality wine .
I’ve friend enough with
all that fluff .
Gotta go and party, big, strong, and hearty, ’on .
Yea, here I’m just a
thinking ; yea, I see her a blinkin’ .
I’m into my
Lincoln; sister give me a nod .
Lookin’ at your skirt
; walkin’ with your chin up ;
eyes be down like a red
carpet gown .
Go on girl a
walkin’; I be a talkin’;
Babe like you, don’t
walk alone.
Students start to
hustle; the ladies start to tussle; get out of here and hit the road.

Love’s Dusk
Will you love me when my
teeth come out
to greet the evening
stars ?
Will you comfort me at
day's last light .
Steady me on bathroom
bars ?
Will you feed me
devoutly
regiments of pills ?
Hold my hand when life
seems lost ;
smile , dispute my ills
?
Will you walk with me
and talk with me ;
as I struggle to stand
at all ?
Toddle , sway ,
tremulously .
I fear a fall .
Will you love me , care
for me ;
as I'm dressed , my hair
combed ?
Listen around our
kitchen sink ?
See, my consciousness is
loaned .
Will you led me and sit
with me
as I know no friends
about ?
Looking blank ; memories
gone ;
lost in doubt ?
Take my hand ; squeeze
it tight .
Give guidance my life .
Seek my breath in the
darkness .
Love is not without it’s
price .

Jerry is also a winemaker.
SHERRY WINE
I’m your friend from the
fungi family; I’m amazing and
scary.
I’m here for your
pleasure; just call me wine Sherry .
I’m a one cell party
creature; I divide and multiply .
I’m a carbohydrate
fiend; my work you must try .
I come in a packet;
just tear, let me loose .
Dump me in sweet
water, then into orange juice .
We’ll make “sweet port”; the color’s “rose” .
My flavor is
sherry. Relax , end your day .
I’m poured into the
must; that’s the juice from the grape
.
I’ll multiply most
rapidly, as its sugars abate .
With oxygen, then without, I’ll grow that’s my biz .
Giving off a
“bubbly”, I’m a chemical wiz .
I convert sugar to
alcohol; the process is fun .
To some, it’s addictive; don’t get overdone .
My maker adds
nutrients; then syrup to the mix .
The measurements he’s
taking is on the scale of the Brix .
Old shipping to
England, would spoil a wine .
Spain put me to
work, for a product divine .
For my spirits are
higher; than other yeasts I know .
I’ll stays fresher
longer; despite oxygen exposed .
Over the weeks he
stirs, samples and labors ;
his devotion to
detail invites delicate flavors .
While ageing in a
cellar, wine changes in the bottle ;
to a silky, full
bodied, to a rich, full throttle .
Drinking wine
straight; the Greeks saw uncivilized .
Straight or mixed with
friends, call a party to your dive .

HAIKU a 17
syllabled poem
Through our poetry :
Truth speaks,
the wind
hushes,
Our minds
listen at rest. Jerry A. Scuderi 02-27-11

I hope that you've enjoyed our trip to Corpus Christi. Let's play some music to finish this entry. I'm in the mood for some vibes, so here is Warren Wolf's "Maiden Voyage":
"Natural Beauties" also seems like a good title for today, too.

Here is Milt Jackson's "Sunflower." I think that my husband was playing it on his computer the other day.
https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=-Qse46GNnU4
While I was assembling this entry, I was listening to a Dusty Springfield album. Lo and behold, here is a song that both she and Milt Jackson covered...separately.
https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=5OZMqf43fNk
This is not Dusty Springfield, but here is Stacey Kent's version of this song:
https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=ZL3OWMzb874
Stacey Kent, by the way, was the singer at the beginning of the 1930s version of Richard III, the one starring Ian McKellan.
Enjoy!
