Premium Member In Your Easter Bonnet
She, in her Easter bonnet Standing beneath the shade, Alongside gentlemen in top hats To view an Easter parade Church bells ring distantly Showy, white lilies sway, Waving to sweet daffodils On this springtime holiday Baskets with chocolate rabbits Jelly beans and colored eggs, Are carried by happy children Running by on pudgy legs A whirl of pastel colors Meant to delight the eye, Like...

Premium Member Yogi Bear and Boo-boo Too
Oh, Jellystone Park, where echoes reside, In the whispers of trees and the brook's gentle glide. A haven of mischief, of laughter, of cheer, Where two famous bears roam year after year. Yogi, the leader, so quick with a plan, A bear of bold wit, a most cunning fan. With his tie so dapper, his hat tilted just so, A schemer of...

Premium Member Basket of Deplorables
If in the basket of deplorables must I be, To quote a term most used by sweetest Hilary, Then let me state this best I can, I'm voting for our country, not the man. A country where race and gender aren't the bait, But where everyone is open to debate, United by a sense of common pride Holding back divisions’ surging tide. Where...

Trumpeting and mythologizing deranged deplorable basket case as demigod
Trumpeting and mythologizing deranged deplorable basket case as demigod Any idea regarding who unnamed individual earned such lofty title? I offer a clue, that averred person unknown to many others within the webbed, wide world, and familiarity limited to smattered kith and kin. Lemme know if dead giveaway ala handy dandy blues clue prompted that "aha"...

Premium Member Basket Case
A waste paper basket, a trash can, a bin Whatever you call it, some things won’t stay in The things that you write Long into the night May make, when discarded… one hell of a din * Don’t write by moonlight at midnight Do not trash your tale late at night For powers unseen And terribly mean May use it to give you a fright I...

I have seen plenty of things never been experienced by an alive eye socket. I have been through the struggle of filling my empty pockets. Call me a sprocket. But I have valid questions. Like, when will our country restore its status as food basket? When will I have fresh water in the bucket? When will I have my next brisket? With...

Bread Basket
Tattered roads and cracked teeth, Shallow pride and hidden graves, Shameless romance, drunk bees, Trees bending, the axes raping, Fields virgin, crops wilder, Beauty stolen, Residing in the pouch of the lame mistress. Shattered screams, mute stares, The sounds of rain rising, teardrops, dry as dirt, Following the turns of straight lines And shadows glowing in dark times, Rain forests begging from deserts. Lions and kittens,...

Accessory Is Necessary
I’d had to simply voice it elsewhere And didn’t forget to on it swear: Much of what is now necessary Is the headache of Accessory… By far an astonishing puzzle, To clothes compared: the ones that dazzle A necessary accessory Proves Accessory necessary: In minds summoning the rosary With its rare roles in soul nursery, Wedding Ring- the less seen in marriage More...

Haiti a Basket Case
Haiti is a basket case. They marched him down the gangway by the feared Tonton Macoute, armed men dressed in Hawaii shirts and slacks, partly concealing their guns The young thief shivered, I thought they were going to kill him. At the pier, they spoke friendly to him and told him to run away he ran and ran, as he...
