Premium Member The Ukrainian Flag Flies Again In Kherson
The Ukrainian flag flies again in Kherson, it is a joy to see
The Russian army are running scared from Ukraines military
Russia pulled out its army saying it was a tactical move
But against Ukraines valiant army, they have a lot to prove.

Their so called special military...

Premium Member Kite Flies Away
I
had
aspired
to hover high
on the horizon where
the blue sky meets the land
and fly like a colored  kite made
of dreams in the air carrying  the scent
of the spring from the blooming garden I left
I would float like a bird and ride on the
flank of drifting...

Premium Member My How Time Flies
Since the elders often proclaim, my how time flies, 
You then naturally look up into the skies.
To study the heavens for at least one small sign,
From the horizon up to the tallest tree line.

Then suddenly, a flock of birds flitters about,
So you believe that you...

Lord of the Flies
Harassing me for days now
Landing on my eyelid
Nosing up my nostril
Tickling my ankles
and every other exposed body part
Little bastard...

Fly-Swatter? Jack be nimble, Jack...
Folded bath towel? (Lamp destroyed)
Raid? Sprayed til I sneezed and choked
and had to quickly retreat outside
(I may have poisoned myself)
Little bastard...
 
Last night...

Flies
In the Australian summer
you’ll always have some mates,
they will ride upon your back 
and then fly to your plates
at your picnic in the outdoors,
and there’ll never be a truce,
when you’re putting out the food,
and both hands are in use.

Bloody flies get in your eyes,
up your...

Premium Member If Only One Saltire Flies
There will be a day when Alba becomes free
To unite this great nation, rid our debris

Join together, families, neighbours and friends
Encourage unity, let Alba ascend

And this will happen, as long as one Saltire flies
Uniting our nation, all of you and I...

Time Flies
Wearing Daddy's boots & cowboy hat & not much in between
Why, Momma, ain't she just about the prettiest baby you've ever seen?
I'm sure wishing she was talking, reading her mind is quite a trick
And she's sure getting awful heavy, I hope she's walking quick 

Whoa...

As the Crow Flies
As The Crow Flies

Staring past the curtain,
At the vigilant crow upon the mast,
The creature unaware of a presence,
In a moment forever lost.

Unflappable in its endeavour,
A breather from its hunt,
A distorted view of the world,
Its cackle alerting its murder..... of its next tenacious stunt!

Unperturbed by darkness,
Its...

Time Flies
'Tempus fugit' we cannot deny
for suppleness dwindles and mirrors can't lie.
As wrinkles start spreading and children depart
the truth of this saying hits home like a dart.

Premium Member Without a Parachute the Other Flies
Never let your heart win the debate

If your mind has a cogent argument.

They both wander from time to time;

One has a temperament to analyze,

Without a parachute the other flies.

Flies
I've watched you brush off flies for years
Sometimes allowing them to linger and feed off your sweetness
Sometimes swatting them into splattered spots

I am happy to be your butterfly as you tell me, though I fear I will just be another fly.

You keep my wings painted,...

Until the Black Dove Flies
ivory skin with ebony eyes, 
         you feel my silky skin; 
just hypnotize, don’t patronize, 
            find my darkness hidden within.

feed my hunger with your sin,...

The Darkness It Flies
The darkness, it flies
As it swallows your eyes
My ships, they capsize
Break that delicate pool surface 
As I fall and baptize
Your waters, they shake
They tremble and wait
Like clockwork, they give a life 
Right as they take
I’m glowing, alone
Surrounded by snow
And nobody knows
About the fire flies that...
