Premium Member Literally a Sonnet About a Hornet
Oh buzz off you crazy crazy hornet
Trying to land here upon my buttock,
Here I am eating my crispy cornet
Lazing naked in my garden hammock.

Tried to coax it with my berry ice cream
But alas it seems unprepared or blind,
Dancing upon an invisible beam
Homing in on me with a one track mind.

Could it be I’ve enhanced the...

Mad As a Hornet
He spits his oatmeal all over the place;
holds his breath, now he's got a blue face.
He wants cookies and not just one.
He throws a fit, if he gets none.

He fell out of his chair and bumped his head.
That made him mad, now his cheeks are all red.
He pees his pants if he doesn't get his...

Relating to the wrath of my long day,
      I've seen choler moments singing my song,
           But as I keep walking with head held high,

Royal Jelly and the Hornet Helix
"Royal Jelly and the Hornet Helix"




When the murder hornets arrived
they flashed their big black wings 
like sharp porcupine needles into our minds
we became honeycombed hypnotised, held in their hive, 
all one mind, one world, the "New Word"...Love, 
well love of a different kind abounds, in our broods we became 
nymphs in wax cells, sealed by...

The Hornet and the Honeybee
The hornet looked down on the field below,
  Then said to his honeybee friend,
  “That alluring sweet scent that does blow, 
  Means I’ve got work to attend!“
  The honeybee nodded, “Yes, let’s quench our thirst,  
  We can have fun on a nectar spree,’’
  ‘Well true, said...

Mad As a Hornet 'A Woman Scorned'
Sitting with calm you know I'm a psychotic love
  bewitching I watch your entanglement affair
  going insane my voice in my mind gives a shove
  playing around my wrath has made you unaware

  Treachery and your sweet talk with my loyalty lost
  hysterically I laugh outside her window 'Dear'

Be That Hornet With a Venomous Sting
World, beware of the turmoil to come, don't be caught in your hiding
succumbing to erratic fear, oppress all shivers and face the vile assailant
with a defying glance, then bite him...be that hornet with a venomous sting
to end his brutality: he came to destabilize your land to achieve conquest!
Never comply, disregard a concept that spreads chaos...

Premium Member ''The Cat Is Mad'' As a Hornet
I brush my cat for five minutes daily,
But she just wiggles and struggles and swats;
All I want is to enhance her beauty,
All I need is to get rid of those knots.

Oh darn the shedding, mating and hairballs,
She is very angry with me for hours;
I try to hold her but away she crawls,
I tempt her with...

Premium Member Mad As a Hornet
Who the hell do you think you are
Being SO judgmental
You're looking down your nose at me
Acting fundamental

The "truth" that you and chastity
are both synonymous
Is really quite an travesty
It's rather quite obnoxious

Instead of throwing stones my way
Peer at a looking glass
and then if what you see's a saint
Then pelt those stones with class

for all that you...

Premium Member Mad As a Hornet
I’m mad as a hornet, which means mad as hell,
Cause somebody’s saying I write too “cliché.”
Well, I’ve had it to here. Now can’t you tell?
I don’t give a hoot what he has to say!

So what if I’m not some snot’s cup of tea?
I’ll write however I want, for Pete’s sake!
He doesn’t know beans! Good for...

Elk Hunting Above Hornet Creek, Idaho
Yellow pines swaying at base camp,
early October morn greets the avid hunters
with its autumnal briskness, waking any
sleepyheads who are stirring under covers,
generators humming away at varying speeds,
smell of frying bacon and sizzling eggs,
add to the aroma of the great outdoors. 

Pickup trucks filled with camo-clothed hunters
traveling along the bumpy, dirt roads climbing 
higher and higher...

Mad As a Hornet
I strike as a hornet.
Swear I'll win with this Sonnet.
Stripes black and yellow I'm the 'Yellow-Jacket'.
Grammar was poor and weak like my zero-budget.
With this sonnet I'm mad as a hornet.

With rhymes I'm the queen of the wasps.
See the way you gasp when your sinking?
Its the way you'll bust when you find these words stinging.
Hornet and...

Mad As a Hornet
I’m mad as a hornet sting like a bee
My venom can kill you quite instantly
I’m an Asian specie’s a giant size
Protecting my nest and queen in her hive
She usually builds in dark hollow tree’s
Makes cells into combs from bark and debris
Then she lays larva in each of these cells
Young spin silk to form cap over...

The Green Hornet
The costume of the Green Hornet
Had no red thereon to adorn it
- He cried; he whined
- Oh! How he pined
‘Cause Superman’s the one who had worn it.
