'Ping-Pong' is wrong
        'Peng' confided 
     If 'Ping' is lopsided
     then 'Pong' is misguided 
        'Prong' decided...

Decidly fat not thin
Her butt played ping pong
when she wore a thong
watching a three rosary sin...

But having brought love along 
Whilst playing ping pong
Vibrations set up in the ethereal
Upon earth become real...

I’m amused
I have with me
a trophy
a red ripe tomato
a beautiful flower
a sharp thorn
a pendulum
a tick tock clock
a ping pong ball
a double-edged pin
my lost rib...

We aren't fool. We
are so cool. We

Love our life. We
know how to strife. We

Can sing a song. We
Can play ping pong. We

Can change our fortune. We
Will die soon....

Watching you but not moving, 
your eyes ping pong all around; 
Watching me from a distance, 
or am I the observant? 
In and out of clear focus
a crowd fading around you,
I feel myself the target....

In Red China they've just outlawed Ping-Pong
  You have to wonder what too them so long
     To have to play in a mask
     A near-impossible task
   But what got it banned were those skimpy thongs...

Howard Hughes

was always in the news

He came up with one heck of a crazy notion.

A plane filled with ping pong balls, should it fall into the ocean.

Capitalism if you know not
is a ping pong game
feet must move very fast
hands on clear  target
ball bounced back quick
eyes on opponent’s  actions 
joy when opponent faults
take it all when foe collapses...

Ping pong match
  Tennis game  
Eternal quest
  For temporal fame
 
Back and forth
  Balls, then eyes
Mesmerized 
  By trophy's prize

In the end
  Both players die
Who has won?
  The score is tied...

King Kong plays ping pong
His doorbell goes ding dong
And you'll hear his singsong
Chitterings that ring wrong.

Bing bong goes the Ming gong
Just see how the string's long
Thanks goes to Ling Wong
Who tossed the I-Ching strong....

when poems did disable
even though they were stable
closed each and would table

when we would call Paul
he slipped while in shower stall
poorly landed on ping pong ball

when we did gamble
would rock, roll and ramble
found home in a shamble...

Bring it on dear life, both joy and the pain;
it is, after all, a game of ping pong.
Our childlike heart is free from feral stain
and divine magnetism has made us strong.
Our vibrant presence, is by bliss controlled,
so do bring on stories, as yet untold....

At any given moment, someone is stocking shelves

Putting the ping-pong balls next to the beer,
Ketchup next to the hot dog buns,
Strawberries next to the shortcake mixes.

	In the parking lot cherry pits line the concrete gutters

All things in their proper place....

A Game of Ping Pong Poetry 
By Franklin Price
1/12 /2017

Poem
A verse to start the game
That rhymes
With words that sound the same
The tale
About an eye lid wink
And why?
Makes readers stop and think
About ?
What could the reason be?
Answer
To get the smile I see...

The old man said to a young man,      
Each time he answered the phone.     
Hitch your wagon with a strong hand.    
Have courage, go far, and live long.    
Encourage yourself and take a stand.   
Expect the best and play lots of ping pong.

I had a fair life with nothing special
Till he came along, he made a ding dong
Ding dong

I thought I was strong, yet he prooved me wrong
I'm Lost in his cute cues of ching chong
Ching chong

A lovely mess, no one could ever bless
I wouldn't last long, in his game of ping pong
ping pong

Ching chong
Ding dong...

In nineteen hundred thirty eight
Howard found a new record to break.
Around the world the fastest ever;
Three hundred fifty two miles per hour.
He filled the plane with ping pong balls.
In case of a crash to cushion the fall.
He also had the bright notion.
They would keep him afloat should he fall to the ocean.

The long days of work 
Can make you go berserk 
Oftentimes I wonder
Am I going down under 
To make sense of it all 
I feel like a ping pong ball 
Being bounced here and there 
No escaping the big brown bear 
Where do I go? 
How do I grow?
What do I know?
Only pain, suffering and sorrow 
I run to you my love 
For a better tomorrow...

Royally draped over a soft cushion
hugging a soft, fluffy white carpet
her gaze wanders 
to the flickering images
on the TV screen
before her...
abruptly transfixed
rocking on her haunches now
her eyes darting back and forth
as if at a ping-pong match...
she tenses now
back arched
hints at moving
A bloodcurdling SCREAM is heard
she leaps; flies away...
