Add Humor To Your Day
Instead of acting like you’re in mourning
With a smiling face, just say good morning
Instead of walking around with a frown
Just be happy without being a clown
Kids don’t need for your tales to be gory
Why not share with them, a funny story
No need to go on about your ex-wife
Say something humorous about your life
To break

JUST DOESN'T ADD UP-
Sometimes the matrix
Just doesn't add up
In array of symbols numbers expressions
Arranged intercession
Cluttered dissentions
Transformable equations
Pivot directions
Mind playing vivid tricks
In an array of majestic book club
Addiction unto Netflix
Just doesn't add up?
What's a person to do?
When 1+1+1 is you!?

ADD ONE WISH
Christmas and the holiday season is a time to look back
and…while at our life and our memories we gaze…
to relish our family…our peace, our love, our happiness…
to be astonished and amazed.
As we look out on the faces of children and adults
and hear holiday music in the air…
we like to think in our little world…at least

Magenta Agenda
I try and try to read long poems
But then I find if it carries on
I daydream or lose focus
A.D.D. does hocus-pocus
I try and try to stick to a plan
But find myself wondering and
Traveling roads less than ideal
Who’s to know if it’s worth thrill
I try and try to use my muse
But in time I become her

Guitars and Add Lilacs
Whence didst craft stopped the Winds of War,
and bring forth peace, forevermore.
Exact it is a slumber hence,
awaken sorts some recompense,
weary minds do not ask for more.
Sub base, Washington, in Bangor,
breaths a sigh scares I, what they store.
A misty boy loss -- skilless, thence.

Draw Add Wet View
Blossoms line my laden descent
down to the perked watering hole
that plays empty theater,
awaiting my creative path,
a royal welcome -
represented by accumed variety and presumed clarity,
of intentional therapy of renewed sensable youth.
Periscope complicity is channeled by heart's stereoscopicity,
Dryad/Satyr Satire, no dry ads, only wet views.
Season facets

I'll come with poetry
Some of my poems are truly inane.
Screeching, preaching, a run away train..
Impulsive poetry is to blame.
It's just my style. I'll sign my name.
It's never racist.
It doesn't seek to defame and
none of my musings would ever proclaim,
to "make America great again".
Poetry soup is a haven, a safe space.
It's certainly not a Presidential race..
If America wants a

ADD
My mind can be like a red bird free
flying from thought to thought
suddenly a new subject enters
And ideas fly like splinters of old wood
carved by imagination into new shapes
new faces new subjects new loves new doves
never occurred to me to use this in poetry
but I try and well this is the end result
my A.D.D. is

Zero
Added to born,
born to add,
added to live,
live to die.
What is life?
Life is zero to start with,
adding numbers for years
to be always resting
until the resault is zero.
What is life?
We start being a zero
and as a zero we finish.

Colours Add Colours To Life
#IntrinsicConnection
A splash of colours on a plain white sheet,
I add life to the paper, That's what I see.
I mix those colours and derive brand new ones,
Sometimes they seem absolutely anonymous,
But I still love the shades, the perfect blending they furnish,
They highlight the place wherever they reach.
They turn a paper into a masterpiece
They turn every desolate

Add Candy Canes
little buck would have been more formidable without the head gear
where do you suppose he found that? the guests asked each other
he’s a lodge favorite, the proprietor replied. We have a relationship
to show them, he walked up to the mammoth beast and added tinsel
add a silver bell! Someone yelled. And candy canes! Screeched another.
How much

Add To What You Know
Please don’t voice ‘A, No’
Add to what you know.
Rapidly, we grow…
Don’t make yours the slow;
Best The Early Hoe,
That strikes a farm’s row…
It should be a blow
Your river can’t flow:
In Spirit ‘The low’
After the cocks crow
Or pulled by the toe
Like a car to tow...
The Long Unused Bow.

Nothing To Add This Week

A flood here, wars over there, and there ...
I love Jesus, but U fight to breathe, so unfair

Lord Jesus, You give me reasons to rise
Help Ukraine, all victims, even the unwise

The sad state of South Africa, the world
The Grace in your words, prayer unfurled
