Who went everywhere on the planet
She danced in France
And then, by chance
Ended up on top of the granite...

Grandma Janet Takes a ChanceThe thought of life on another planet
Held no appeal for Grandma Janet
But the COVID lockdown
Made Grandma fret and frown
Masks banned there? ~ I think I can stand it...

it's my only chance
for romance...

I Was a Nurse in Vietnam,
Not Something I’d Recommend.
I Was Present So Many Times,
When a Soldier Met His End.
I Don’t Do Nursing Anymore,
And I Haven’t since Vietnam.
I Saw and Felt Too Much....
I Am Just Not Very Strong.
I Know There Were Quite a Few,
That Were Helped...

Janet (Dedicated To Janet Anderson From Sweden)There is a blue star, Janet . . .
(from an unknown English poet)
Somewhere is a distant star
called Janet. Why?
One little girl flew there many years ago.
Nobody knew why she did this
or how she flew there.
But one familiar wind told me
about a great love Janet...

Atoned in descent whiff
Nested with magnificent truth
Eclipsed at heart, soul and mind
True amongst earthly beauties...

Just For Mama JanetGrace granted us a say on our knees:
a thousand pleas pummeled the sky,
stirred the heavens. The Lord moved,
gentle thunder rumbled:
My daughter's back home!
Our hearts sank, too heavy to bear,
for Janet was a sweetheart, a mother
we've hugged for twenty years and more—
never saw anger crease...

Janet LynnLiving the life of innocence
Not giving into pretense
The act of being good and kind
That person so hard to find
No mean or harsh words
That would be absurd
There was a peace and tranquility
The spender in serendipity
Unassuming of others motive
Leaving alone the combative
Gentleness and a quite reserve
Angelic to...

Waltz For Janet WebbShe wore thick leggings
our childhood polio albatross
mass Sabin vaccine sauce
body snatcher ritual
fixed beautiful legs.
(In early elementary school she wore braces most of the way through 6th grade. We all went to the nearby JHS to drink the approved Sabin vaccine. By 7th grade she had...

JanetWe met many years ago.
On a farm where tiger lilies grow.
The scent of an apple pie.
The bright sun shining in the sky.
I dreamt of the day I would meet you.
Yet I always thought it would be the hardest thing to do.
For the love I had...

JanetShe's a Tough Girl and looks it, yeah
Hands quick to clench into fists, tongue like a blade.
Chainsmokes and drinks when she cuts school,
Which is often.
Half her friends pregnant, or worse
Before they can drive;
She doesn't expect to turn out any different.
God alone knows what goes on...

Janet From Another PlanetMaybe you’ve seen Janet
she’s from another planet
making all her regular stops
at the local charity shops
loves a second hand rail or two
lives in the land of good as new
to knock and shock them in the aisles
with frocks and socks of different styles
for Bolton she’s a...

Janet and I Our Souls Were Once Connected Now We'Re Not-Janet
We had a love so pure, this I was sure;
our souls were connected,
our souls were connected,
true love, I really believed was assured;
Our spirits danced under the moonlit night;
Whom am I to ignite, passions rights;
~
But our love was just a figment of a...
