Premium Member Spring's Kindness
Cascading off the winter chill
leaving warmth wherever it traces
the edge of the daffodil, tulip or crocus
spring shines its brilliant rays across
the windowpane that mirrors the friendly praise
coloring the seals with such sweet appeal 

lavender lilacs wave through camouflage branches
succeeding in meeting my gaze with a...

On Christmas Eve
Silence occupied the room for so long
No signs of a visitor to step on coming
Trying to entertain himself in craving
Of bygones and the future just like a throng

Shebang of party for a corporation
Another shanty is built for the hapless and poor
To prance inside malls to...

A Christmas Sonnet Acrostic
"Christmas Magic"

Christmas scent hovers in the air
Holly’s dangling off gates and stairways
Raspberry pie sizzling at the oven glare
Icicles jazz up the hues of heaven rays 
Santa ‘s climbing up chimneys with a grin
Tucking kids’  dream with Noel fantasy
Mary is giving birth to redeem human’s...

Star Stickers
Some teachers once used stickers
To reward a super grade.
Originally, star-shaped ones
Were all the ones they made.

My grandson's potty-training, too,
Involved those stick-on stars,
Which also were exchangeable
For varied Hot Wheels cars.

His younger sister somehow
Got her hands on quite a few.
Despite her age, she right away
Knew just what...

Premium Member Crazy
Come to know proof,
Reach deeper still,
Allow the truth,
Zoom on goodwill,
Young is the sight.
Dream can come true,
Align with light,
Zeal flows from you,
Yes do the dance.
Jazz up your fest,
Ask for and chance,
Zest funds sure quest,
Zoom in or out,
Your humour shouts.

Jazzing Up To Die (The Count: the Musical)
[MARISHKA]
Lights, go, down.
Blood, goes, 'round.
Lets, get, started.
Lets, jazz up.

The lights go down and the moon goes up
We're getting closer, to the top.
What shall we do when the lights go out?
Let's give 'em something, to talk about.

The sound of screams in the air
It comes from everyone,...

Premium Member Dance
They danced as if they were the only ones at the outdoor concert.
They were challenging others to join them.
There were chuckles in the background as they "jived" up a storm.
But there were also cheers of "way to go" from other onlookers as they
watched in amazement...

Aim for your goal, aim for your poise;
Be who you are, be of fond glow;
Charm speaks of soul, charm wears sure voice.


Do weave your thoughts, do word your song;
Etch dear fine star, etch style you know;
Feel surge of plot, feel work made strong.

Play follows play in fits of joy;
I feel the surge of precious waves;
Charm fronts the day in fine employ;
Trust frames each urge in antics brave;
Use abstract art to help you see;
Reach deeper still to sense surreal;
Embark sure heart and claim beauty;
Speak bold goodwill and make...

Premium Member My Story
Meet my story through joy and grief,
Glimpse now clearly that sparkle brief.


To each a path to journey far,
Bear smooth and rough and live on par.


Dare then to be your dream come true,
For what you see you live on cue.


Be brave and bold and dare clear...

Striped
Zebras and tigers and lemurs’ long tails
Have stripes both distinctive and cool,
As well as some convicts in old-fashioned jails
Who wear black and white stripes as a rule.

The American flag and a barbershop pole
Both have candy-candy stripes white and red,
While some p.j.’s and blankets and sheets...

Premium Member Wise Words
Here for a while,
Jazz up fine touch;
Joy in sure style
Moves love as such.


Glimpse how cheer grows,
Hope sculpts sure feel;
Faith seeds fond glow,
Fine grace now heals.


Wise words now fest
With happy moods,
Watch how pure zest
Mellows fine good.
