Best Dip Poems
I want to skinny dip in pools of your eyes
And dry myself on lashes bordering there
I want to slide on lush plush of your lips
Then fall asleep on pillowed warmth of cheek
I want to reach the hollow of your chest
And camp above the rumbling of your heart
I want to flirt with fingers of your hand
Then cloistered be, wrapped safe inside your palm
I want to enter world of waiting mouth
Explore and ride the wet waves of your tongue
I want to dance along what makes you man
And tease and please and swirl around and round
I want to course through rapids of your veins
And then set fire to sanctum of your heart
I want to glide and dip in every breath
And sail the glorious sea of dreams and thoughts
I want all this and then I want much more,
For, darling, you're the one whom I adore

*my word for his gentle roar
The celestial royal purple lake
of my wandering soul's freedom,
in a luminous rowboat of dreams,
as the filled moon's fairest face
reflects the sun's benevolence.
As I dip the oars in stars,
slowly rowing, pondering,
on to where God wants me,
to commune with His
messenger angels,
as I dip the oars in stars.
A covenant with Him,
to pray for humanity-
as it roils on the earth,
and a healing of earth's nature,
O God I weep,
fleeting are the universe's
hours of passage,
yet, prayers for hope's
continuing, for peace,
as I dip the oars in stars. ~

Children at the ice cream store, are staking claims with hungry eyes
But all those choices, ....how to pick, while clutching dollars for their prize?
On their tip-toes,...peeking in, frost on noses like cherry roses!
Standing there in mute despair, like indecisive millionaires !!
With fifty flavors waiting there, tempting them to choose a pair
How to choose a double dip?
Should they get the chocolate chip, strawberry or bubble gum?
Praline cream or butter rum?
All those flavors ...is there one, that satisfies a drooling tongue?
Finally mommy has a plan...
Tell the smiling ice cream man
Two yummy ice creams......in the cones
Two different pints to carry home!

You say that you're drowning
Cos your good girl is gone
Gone with her makeup
and her swollen silicon
You're begging for pity
Well here is a plan
Dip your cigar in your whisky
And take it all like a man
You say that your world
Is falling apart
And you good girl's departure
Is eating your heart
You're collecting sorrow
in a black box of tears
You drown in your memories
And say nobody cares
Well I tell you I care
And here is my plan
Dip your cigar in your whisky
And take it all like a man
seamless water flows
just as nature intended
as I skinny dip

Contest Name Let's Keep Footling Around
Placed 7th..
Hiking in posh, thick woods
On a hot and hazy day
Finding a dainty, good spot
For backpack down to lay.
A pond is off this trail I trod
With an oh so inviting pool
Stripping down to only skin
At last I start to cool.
Thinking that it’s far away
And off any hiking paths
I skinny dip and lay on rocks
Giving in to this cooling bath.
Not spying a pair of girls
Who also took this trip
I didn’t know I was a show
I think I was a hit.
For having worn pants again
As I got back on a hiking trail
A clapping of girl’s hands I got
And grins that didn’t fail.
For the no U and Me contest. If you find any, let me know.
Traveling by air?
Delayed by security?
Let’s make it quick
Here is the trick
Let’s embrace nudity
Dismiss TSA as a novelty
Introduce this new policy
Worked quite well on sheep of old
Quick and easy and kept them clean, though you may think it bold
The new policy will be known only as S&D
Strip-em and dip-em, not only quick but keeps them pest free
Three little sheep
Sitting in a row
Dip, dip, dip
And off they go!
I savor sunshine - its voracious heat
as I drizzle sweet lemonade
on my dehydrated tongue.
I dip my toes into the fondant
of lemon afternoon. You’ll find me
wading in the aquamarine swoon.
My coral-colored swimsuit, one piece
tease of a midsummer’s sea;
saltine-salvation with a tangerine squeeze.
Chartreuse eyes, like a key lime pie,
Ray-Ban protected ~ *
dessert winks at her sublime prize.
Quite crimson, I become, forgetting
to reapply sunscreen, with a rub-a-dub-dub,**
as I sunbathe near my ocean tub.
Clueless after hours on the beach,
my love dives into his watermelon treat,
a breach of spousal ethics to my cause.
With a pouty lip and grifting-tears, I con
his palm to soak me down with aloe vera,
and grant me two-fisted cocktail sips.
The saffron sun dips on the zephyr’d beach.
A welcoming arm rounds my shoulders ~
lavender and lilac speech of twilight.

One appointment I'd like to forget
A place that always makes me sweat
A simple doctor's exam
He doesn't know who I am
I took a wrong turn and went to the vet
Just the other day, I had drawn an imaginary castle
I knew all the pathways to the glittered dreams
As I got nearer and nearer to touch
The dreams started blurring with reality
The pathways got narrowed down, even for the sun to gaze
the wicket closed off me
Despair overshadowed my life
As I ambled in the lawn
The moat delighted with the reflection of the sun
There is no such thing as ‘lost hope.’
When ‘life’ is still there
That’s when a new life commenced as I awoke.
There is nothing to fear but fear itself
All that glitters is not gold
I chose to dip my whole self into the unknown
Into the sea of the likelihood
For each day to have a new and different sun
To have an endlessly changing horizon
We’re all on a quest for true significance;
real encounters; inner peace and inspiration.
You will take my hand, make no mistake
Just like the sea shimmering in the sunlight
Well, I’ll take what you give and
oh, so much more, ‘cause
The fear of the unknown,
Does not scare me anymore.
I wonder what on Earth the waves might bring...
If you have that same chip,
do not take a double dip.
It really is not considered nice
if you take your chip and dip it twice.
Some other people have to eat the same.
Contamination of the bowl will be a shame.
