A Former Minister Of Goverment in Dominica

A Base Man Can never Blow The Trumpets Of Serenity.

Premium Member Untitled

there is a young lass named Tracey
who always wears a solemn face
whenever asked why
she always replies
to keep the lusty lads from first base

Premium Member Poeticism Way Off Base

The deletion of one's post will then have a direct impact on one's totality of posts being reduced by that action, in equal numbers,

where the relevancy will be the act of adding a post to one's totality of their posts being increased by that action, in equal number.

The consequences of those plus or minus acts should directly impact one's posts encountering a stipulation. 

Albeit, the modus operandi forestalls, at which point the deletion of two posts almost immediate to each other, and in pursuit, similarly its totality reduced, with the recommended window for numbered of privileged posts--

--Should have ascertained relief of two deletions upon its immediacy, an act for an act, and be accorded the window of opportunity times two within the same time frame: 

 ~~ Explanations needless warranty of a suspenseful guesstimate.


Premium Member Third Base

Love bites took me to a new place
 tiny teeth marks I can't erase;
Laid back you looked for my entrance,
 passing third base, passing third base;

Hungrily you nipped at my soul, 
ripped the lace of my camisole;
Whispered on my skin 'Keep control..
stay in your role, stay in your role.

Base Camp

It's cloudy Sunday
At foothills of Mt. Apo
Lies array of tents.

our form is dust

Premium Member The Galaxy In Your Heart

The revolution of stars in the galaxy
Resembles the whirling of dreams in your heart
The unknown part of the galaxy
Symbolizes the unachievable dreams in your heart
The galaxy is the future base of mankind
And your dreams are your future life goals
The galaxy in the dark is to be conquered one day
And your dreams in the unpredictable futue are to be fulfilled one day
The galaxy is created by God
And your dreams are planned by you
Bright the galaxy bright the dreams
The galaxy fills the space with twinkling stars
And the dreams  will fill your life with thrilling hopes 
Maybe you'll not be alone in this life struggle
As the galaxy gifted by god
Resembling man's hopes and dreams
Is always above your head
And the dreams in your heart 
Will always shine 
Like the galaxy above your head

Premium Member A Big Base Drum

Didn't realise how poorly our TV had become
Reception was so poor it was nothing but scum
It was time for the big leap
Holy crap it sure wasn't cheap
The new one was like beating a big base drum

Premium Member Building the Base

If not standing on solid ground 
Small setbacks can be sapping 
Exterior cracks can compound
Stress that was already flapping 

Daily difficulties easily expand 
Into a full season of suffering
Questions outnumber answers  
As stuck in a state of buffering 

But able to break free from the haze
Finding an antidote from the craze
Allowing us to escape the maze
Igniting our ambition into a blaze 

Despite the swirling above the surface
Can be rooted in a strong home base
With the ability to ride out the storm
No matter what situation we face 

Once we begin to turn the corner 
Setting our foundation firmly in place 
Can tackle any upcoming speed bump
Handling them with newfound grace

Base Ball

The Stats show a Brooklyn Dodger
Scored RBIs with his todger
Then one day at bat
A Foul Ball went splat
And now he's Soprano Codger 


RBI=Runs Batted In

Base of Gold

An old best friend is like a gold, 
New one‘s a diamond to hold, 
If you ever get the latter, 
Just never forget the former.

The Base

What I feel and what I think
While I’m standing on the brink
Of determining what is true
Must not solely influence what I do
But my morals, lest I have those
May just guide me, but who knows
I might end up acting wise
Or lay the base for my demise.

Our Desert Base

From my window the sun shines
Down on this desert base of mine
I wait for my duty to start
Our work away from home is worlds apart

Serving Australia in the Middle East
This is price for our country’s peace 
It’s eternal vigilance against the foe
Is what we realise and have come to know

In my room my sanctity is mine
As our Red Cross flies 7 days a week so sublime 
I know that when our duty is ended
Australia will welcome us home as intended.

Base

My new favourite place
To lay here and write
My mind is at ease
No struggle 
No fight
My little ones room 
While he’s fast asleep 
A light in the corner 
His breathing so deep
It’s here I find comfort 
And peace with the world
This room filled with Lego 
And first words we’ve learned 
Somehow his kingdom 
Makes me feel safe
His four walls protected
The ultimate base 
Or maybe it’s him 
A hero who’s four  
My own little champion 
My winner of wars 
A moment like this 
A second in time
I’ll keep in my heart
This moments mine 
????
