Best Brownie Points Poems

I know that I’m not perfect, just go and ask me wife.
At times she’s kind of said - I’m the bane of her life,
but on her better days she wouldn’t trade me for a thing,
and sometimes she has even thanked me for the ring.

Sometimes I...

If to be a winner, I must first suck up,
Then instead, I will gladly lose.
If to gain popularity means kissing butt,
Then a path alone I will seek and choose.

If to climb the ladder is scoring brownie points,
Then a different ladder I will choose to seek,
A...

My wife she is a quilter, she quilts by day and night
cutting cloth and paper pieces, making sure they’re right
she likes to get me involved, “do these colours look OK”
I ask her, “what does she think”, cause she has...

Get Out of My Face!

What brought all of that on?
Award?  This is not a movie!
Who cares about a stupid award?
And how dare you judge me like that?
You must have lost your brains –
Yes, I see them now!
Right in front of your face
Floating around in...

It's an eternal arrangement

Every week or two I have promised to send him some chocolate

Nothing fancy-just a thought from me to him

Just to let him know that I am on board with our destiny 

We will be forever friends

Chocolate has medicinal properties too you know

It...

Ephemeral online moment...

Yours truly plagiarizes himself with zeal
courtesy mental cogs and rusty wheel,
thus no literary crime committed to steel
I broadcast material shown thru rickety
black and white Roman Times newsreel

forthwith shoddy wordplay exempts me
against copyright infringement meaning
only I own privilege to take self to heel,
nevertheless yours...

Sitting, watching my favorite fishing channel on TV,

Then I hear my wife screaming, calling out to me.

I run up the stairs, into the bathroom, a huge spider,

She stopped screaming and I saw what frightened her.


I was startled when I gawked at first glance,

Have you seen...

Looking for a car, fair to presume
Brownie points for value I assume
I've got the ideal car for whom
Promises never a day of gloom
Perfectly loaded for bride and groom
From the mirror dangles a heirloom
Plenty room in case of baby boom
Gargantuan trunk can store a broom
With your...

Your Certain European Grace
by Rick Rucker

For a while, as a young man, I dated English Girls,
All of them had long straight hair, none of them had curls,

All of them had that accent, that was then the fashion,
But when it came to breeding, they certainly had...

yes sure:>
 but if you dont support the underdog,
just crawl to the Boss, the fat greedy hog,
 and only support the greedy master,
weak brained sheep, are even smarter,

to get to heaven, here after,
heaven do say, you been smoking...

spirit rises canters well,
outworn overcoat, falls away ole Poddy,,

logic says the soul wont smell.......

grub of soul lives on the earth,
butterfly spirit flys in  the light,
depending on your brownie points,you surf,
bitter/sweet is your next delight
have you...

i am watching a mother sparrow
feed her offspring, we are blessed
by this innate ubiquitous nature 
it is by the mother's breast 
comes the promise
God still believes in us
it is that time of year
i scatter seeds several times a day
not only do i derive pleasure
from feeding...

-I just wanted a friend
-One without ulterior motives
-Know what I mean? 
-They never ACTUALLY listen to what im saying.
-They just nod, and smile, they agree at all the right parts..
-But, the whole time they’re just counting up their brownie points to get into my pants.
-Like...

wrapped innocence
I want  to  lie in this bed
bright red and glistening
 think for yourself 
chase tails of dogma
say no evil but show me rythmicly
all of your intentions 
and then run away
hide!
 tell it like you want 
opinionlessly 
silently 


not soo innocent after all
as...
