No Frills Vacation
As she envisions boarding the plane,
she whoops a big hooray,
but then she's quickly back to earth,
realizing all the bills to pay…
Her dream vacation is to one day
see the sights and sounds of London, 
but for now she'll have to settle
for some bathwater filled with Calgon!...

No Frills Girl
She always looked
A little bit out of the norm
Cruising down the street 
In her Geo Storm

One time
I asked her to give me five
Up high
She missed 
and slapped me dead in the eye

She wears wears a butt bag around her waist
It's so sad 
she's got bad...

No Frills, More Bills
No frills airlines will get your money
My fair means or by foul
This may mean them charging you
If you need a paper towel
Or if decompression occurs
And the oxygen mask is hanging there
You will have to put a pound coin in
Before it dispenses any air...

More Frills Please
Oh, what a style – my, what a look!
Make it flounce with lace and luxuries galore,
Add ruffles and superfluities with a golden hook,
Embellish the indulgences all others adore,
Excessive immoderation is what you should cook,
I’ll have cheese on my burger – my delectable amour!...

No Frills For Santa
As Santa was wearing a mask,
he spilled all the wine from his flask -
he muttered and swore,
'This Covid's a bore...
I've ruined the lace on my basque.'

All around me I see folks are glad as can be
'Tis the season when glad hearts are beating
But surely you know, somewhere deep down below
There are hearts that are wounded and bleeding

See the cards go around, while the red hearts abound
Some are decked out with...

No Frills Santa
This year Santa has decided to be thrifty,
after forecasts regarding the economy,
He's shopping at sales and going to Flea
Markets,
Trying to get the kids quality presents at a 
bargain,
He has even resorted to creativity,
making all the decorations for the North Pole's
Christmas Tree,
The reindeers have stayed afloat,
because...

in the colors of warm bliss
Windblown and silly.
Young, and with life, so giddy
Walled garden in the city....

Frills And Thrills
Even cold days 
can be warmed with 
the warmth of your soul.

Take a cup of coffee
in the midst of hot
summer day to feel cool.

Try coffee and ice cream
feel bittersweet
like life aftertaste.

Appreciate arts
in many forms
one find shapes and colors....

Our Town
This is our town, this place we share
we’ve got lions, on our town square
old mills, big hills and Smithills Dean
no frills, aside from our home team 
Rivington if you want fresh air 

You’ll not find many millionaires
but dreams survive, with wear and tear
for what could...
