Poems

or Colonel Tom Parker

14JAN26

keeping Elvis out of sight

take a pic of bigfoot there
a blur is all you've got
does bigfoot share
he prefers to not

as a host
he's really not that good
he's more like a ghost
in his own neighborhood

but at being a topic
staying in the conversation
he's like the tropics
for staying on vacation

managing his fame
casting a spell
it is a game
he does well

is he interdimensional
on the loose
is his fame intentional
seems more of a recluse

always strange news
long stares lingering tales
like Howard Hughes
long hair and finger nails

he keeps us in cuffs
tantalizes our brains
exposing just enough
to keep us entertained

like Bob Barker
on The Price Is Right
or ColonelTom Parker
keeping Elvis out of sight

Enjoy your Wednesday.

Poems

pretty sure bigfoot knows

13JAN26

more than me

now there's traffic
in the sky
is it galactic
as it flies

it has gotten attention
all over the place
is it another dimension
or outer space

is it weather balloons
or is it ethereal
might as well be cartoons
trying to sell cereal

are you entertained
that they are appearing
when the government explains
it is not that reassuring

I hear the wind blow
through the trees
pretty sure bigfoot knows
more than me

Enjoy your Tuesday!

Poems

people say it’s all

12JAN26

in our imagination

have to open our eyes
on this path
don't be suprised
bigfoot uses a different math

we may think
two plus two equals four
it is time to drink
from a different pour

it's a new school
the lessons mind spoken
most of our rules
will be broken

walk its halls
get a good education
people say it's all
in our imagination

and really while
that may or may not be true
we sure do smile
a lot more than they do

Enjoy your Monday. I hope this will be a great week for you.

Poems

Jack and the Beanstalk

11JAN26

real life X File

under a tree put
a rhyme and a tune
you'll see bigfoot
no time soon

arrange your search
wide your mind bend
a strange church
you decide to attend

try to move faster
figure out and determine
the smooth pastor
an out there sermon

Jack and the Beanstalk
real life X File
will you decide to walk
down the aisle

Enjoy your Sunday!

Poems

he spins the platter

10JAN26

he is the DJ

would be good to know
what the laws define
as the wind blows
bigfoot draws the line

to roam free
that's his biz
and only he
knows where the line is

it doesn't matter
it is his way
he spins the platter
he is the DJ

mystery he wields
in the birds and the bees
out where the fields
meet with the trees

Below is a list of bigfoot events. It will be expanding over time.

Smoky Mountain Bigfoot Festival – 02MAY26

Poems

learn what you love

09JAN26

and how much

take a chance
time to depart
more to romance
than two hearts

take off the gloves
learn to touch
learn what you love
and how much

clear your mind
part from the crowd
try to find
part the clouds

may have to run
from this place
to feel the sun
on your face

if you can't decide
where to be
maybe go hide
behind a tree

continue to roll
continue to roam
when you know your soul
you're already home

Enjoy your Friday. Make someone smile.

Poems

make your wish

06JAN26

in the still of the night

bigfoot is a fish
will he bite
make your wish
in the still of the night

but his amusement park
comes with a bill
you may get a shark
instead of a blue gill

don't try to fillet
or to debone
could lose your way
in the unknown

you may want to wait
to open this book
you may be the bait
on the hook

I will be adding some more content to the Bigfoot Videos soon. I am trying to find out where and when all of the Bigfoot Festivals are going to be this year so I can make plans to attend the ones you guys would most want to find out about.

Enjoy your Tuesday. Make someone smile!

Poems

he’s already seen

05JAN26

how we act

time to prepare
for a meeting
to become aware
a bigfoot greeting

walk with the free
but you can bet
out behind the tree
bigfoot's not ready yet

in the in-between
bigfoot holds back
he's already seen
how we act

he sees our ways
judges if they're true
listens to what we say
watches what we do

out there resisting
bigfoot is down with
only existing
as a myth

I am back in the neighborhood in Louisville this morning. What was supposed to be a 2 day visit to the holler turned into 11 days. It was a lot of fun. But now I have a lot of tasks to tackle. I hope that all of your tasks go smoothly on this day and in this week.

bigfoot with video

knowing if they remember

01JAN26

they’re still with them

in the vast expanse
bigfoot turns the page
does he advance
like us in age

is their calendar lined
as the New Year arrives
do they share minds
like in a hive

in the New Year
as their souls soar
do they shed a tear
for those no more

or do they leave December
over the hills in rhythm
knowing if they remember
they're still with them

HAPPY NEW YEAR!

Yesterday I put a slide show up on You Tube. It is from the Woodbooger Festival in Norton VA that I attended back in September. I had planned on doing the slide show soon after the festival. But when I looked at the pictures for some reason the camera had taken every photo in jpeg and raw form. And it took the computer a little while to merge the pics into something that I could use. In the future I have to pay more attention to the camera settings before I shoot a lot of pics. I will include a link to the post with the video below.

Link to Woodbooger Festival 2025 post.

I hope that this is the beginning of what will be a wonderful year for you. Smile a lot : )

Poems

it’s a fun game

27SEP25

and really sweet

a festival & a grill
share a name
a beast in the hills
is called the same

together they gather
all together excited
bigfoot would rather
not to be invited

know he will appear
so stay alert
colorful and clear
on many t-shirts

time to unwind
and spend big bucks
in the lines
at the food trucks

it's a fun game
and really sweet
it's in his name
that we meet

we know he'll escape
but we don't despise
we love the big ape
in the county of Wise


The poem is probably not my best work but I am kind of in a rush to get over to the Woodbooger Festival in Norton VA this morning. My cameras should be ready to go. I am looking forward to attending the festival. It will be my first time. I plan to get there and take a quick picture in front of something with the top hat and ukulele. And then I will start taking pictures of the festival and people in their bigfoot t-shirts. Hopefully you will see it in the blog and on you tube in a few days or weeks.

Enjoy your Saturday. Smile a lot. I am pretty sure I will be in a sea of smiles all day. That is pretty much how the bigfoot crowd rolls.
