Best By Leaps And Bounds Poems

Looked up and down, right and left
Wondering why life suffers a theft
Subtracted beauty from my chin cleft
 
If I deserved and preserved the best
My love could lavish to attest
Why my love passed a preset test
 
Under dodgy durations of circumstances
Pummeling endeavours made in instances
That diminished...

Little kids have a natural curiosity
that can catch us off guard too often.
Like little Bobby, who went into the kitchen and said,
"Mom, can I ask you a question"?"

"Okay", says she, "I've time for a few".
"I just wanted to know...how old are you"?
"That is not a...

Lord only knows how the settlers survived
When in Arizona's desert they arrived

I visited there in late November
And the piercing heat I still remember

Air conditioning's great invention
Brought to this state renewed attention

The population grew by leaps and bounds
Many homes were built on the sandy mounds

"There's no...

It is so beautiful
It get it`s beauty from God

It`s smell is from the scent of God
God has given a blessing to it
The blessing is it get it`s charm
When someone by leaps and bounds
Takes  it`s bloom from rosarium
What is...

I don’t know why some say chips are so bad
Tho we both know, not just one can be had!

And why do burgers have to put on pounds
With hot crispy French fries, by leaps and bounds?

And those sugary treats I so often crave
Why is it always...

Bittersweet, Former Exultations

We met, in yesterdays, we long held dear
Once found our hearts leaped;
Great times, golden moments so clear,
sweet harvests were reaped.

An April day, blue sky sang out loud
Walking we, sang in tune;
Our love became deep and so proud,
Approaching the month of June.

Now look back,...

Bad news likes to travel fast,
Much quicker than the good
And you can’t stop it even if
You pause to knock on wood.

It’s like a snowball, growing as
It barrels down a hill,
Unstoppable and uncontrolled
As oil from a spill.

Through phone or text or face to face
The knowledge makes...

Growing a little more every day
the clothes worn in summer
not fitting today

Growing each day by leaps and bounds
independent at play
new discoveries found

Growing and changing, days going by
baby curls are long gone
and your distinct infant cry

Growth spurts are often and seem overnight
no more crib rails or...

What is the meaning of 'family ties'
Is the meaning lost in lies

We strive to hold it all together
Although we're not birds of a feather

With different lives and much to do
we need our families, me and you

We laughed and cried, had fun together
we thought it all...

It takes two to tango
So here we go
She cooks
I clean
Utensils now have 
A never before sheen
Sweeping, mopping 
And all such things
Under my control
I put my heart and soul
Into these
After all 
Lady of the house
Has to be pleased
The house is always
Spick and span
Initially I was unsure
She...

From generation to generation
Times have changed so much
By leaps and bounds
Back when technology did not exist
I grew up in a family of 13 kids
Survival was the game of life
Working hard day and night
Trying to make a better life
Nothing was easy
You just did your best
And hoped...

Everyone needs a break from routine
It can drive us right to the brink
The stresses we feel just trying to get through
Are enough to drive us to drink

Doesn't take much, could be quite simple
Like changing the order of things
May not seem much but sure does wonders
For...

To conquer you should at both ends the candle burn
By leaps and bounds seek long to sojourn
In the arena of knowledge imbibe from every stream
Lend an ear to your flaws,don't be so swift to overesteem 

You would later eventually society confront
Malefactor throngs from all edges...

When a man has a pound,
he grovels on the ground.

If he gets two,
he searches for gals to woo.

when he has three,
he goes on a spending spree.

when he has four pounds, 
he gets naughty by leaps and bounds.

When he gets to five
thinks he's got more than...

i am to be blown off on the first bombardment 
then it is to be flown 
in the crowd of  fire-flies 
on the bushes of the scented-lemons 

and it is to see the memory race of the grown-up girls 

it is to see...
