Best If You Ask Me Poems


Premium Member Potatoes Forever If You Ask Me

My favorite vegetable is a potato
I will eat it fried, filleted, with salt and pepper.
Bring me butter
That won’t be enough

Some people add cheese.
I am not interested in that, unless it is cheddar
shaved, on the top of sour cream and chives.
Yes, I love a baked potato loaded and potatoes scalloped

I adore French fries, also made from the beautiful potato.
I dip them into barbeque sauce or honey mustard.
Keep the ranch to yourself, I have never liked it.
A sweet potato is not the same. You can have it.

Unless it is loaded with cinnamon and brown sugar.
But wait, let’s get back to my favorite which is the potato.
I like potato soup, I love potato salad. I like potatoes in my chili.
I love corn and butter with salt and pepper over a potato.
I like beef and noodles over mashed potatoes.

I like potatoes smashed, bashed and dashed.
Give me a potato in any form.
I love them all.
Potatoes forever if you ask me!

Premium Member walking artwork if you ask me

Bubble balloon buffoon did not need jester hat
His costume designed by merry Cheshire cat
Argyle socks created by cirque du Soleil
Splattered paint on coat has much to say
A walking artwork, enhancing this weird Tuesday.

Premium Member Brilliant Question If You Ask Me

The competition is on at work.
Elementary school teachers
Most in their own queendom
Two in kingdoms
We are discussing job interviews
One question was really silly, Mrs. Bee told us.
“What was the last book you read?”
Made her really mad, 
as she had not read
a book since college’s
required reading.
She is in her forties.
Brilliant question if you ask me
As our goal is to create 
lifelong learners.


If You Ask Me

If you ask me
How deep my love is
I wouldn't know the answer
For I will only reach the bottom in ever after

And if you ask me
to measure my heart
I'm afraid I would never see you again then
For the journey needs thousand years to end

Premium Member Four Weeks Too Long If You Ask Me

He threw himself into my arms
The second he landed in my driveway.
He will be five this week but he wanted up too.
I snatched him up.
He is my darling  grandson, Max.
We had not seen each other for six weeks.
About four weeks too long….
