Premium Member The Story of the Pot and the Kettle
Fresh upon the morning grove,
With day becoming hot,
And sitting there upon the stove,
A kettle and a pot.

The kettle blew and lifted high,
And poured into the cup,
With that to see it’s bottom by,
And so the pot spoke up.

“Pardon me to even know,
For I don’t mean to...

Lake, Pond, and Kettle

The lake is glistening beneath the sun,
and paddle boats leave ripples in the light. 
The sky above, a lovely turquoise blue
with fluffy cotton-candy clouds in sight.

Sightseers settle on the wooden porch;
from rocking chairs, survey the lovely views.
While others, by the pond of...

Premium Member Calling the Kettle Black
An Eagle whose name is Don Henley

To media isn’t so friendly

     He wrote “Dirty Laundry”

     Left press in a quandary

But sneers at the poor from his Bentley

Fish and Cornbread for Dinner

Ma Kettle tired from housework, disheveled gray hair,
dressed in her long pioneer floral cotton dress, 
black boots,  sauntered to her garden as she always did, 
same place, same time of the day, every day,
and sat on a bench nestled near...

Premium Member Before the Tea Kettle Whistles
Early morning sunlight dances
Upon Rebeckia
That bright gold flower of summer's 
End, jealous Cassiopeia

The flower boxes receive small
amount of rays
Sunlight draws out blossoms white
On the Begonia today

There is a peaceful feeling here
A touch of quiet settles
The crickets enjoy their time
Before morning's kettle  

Monday morning August...

To My Kettle
Oh, lidded kettle boil me water fast
I cannot live without your heated blast
Your spout is small but perfect for its use
And, as your lid is hinged. it can’t get lost

An electric kettle made by Russell Hobbs
A teapot with a spout and lid with knob
Are what...

The Day the Kettle Called Me Black-Back
the day the kettle called me black-back,
we had some thing in common
"them drugs never lied,
and triggers don't pull them selves.
time never turned a wife into a whore,
hate never told the blinded racist minds to abhor."...

Angel At the Kettle
One more Christmas has passed,
The memories of good tidings and hearing Merry Christmas
Took on a whole new meaning this year.
The business of running around, catching up on the holiday
Errands of what needed to get done to make my holiday complete
Can in no way compete with...

How To Make a Chocolate Kettle
Light the oven with a spark
Wearing paper gloves in the dark
Add water: a litre
From a distance of a metre
Add a rampant stinging nettle
Then its ready: a chocolate kettle...

Put the Kettle On
I love a cup of tea in the morning,
coffee at night and in the afternoon.
Tea with the sun,
coffee with the moon.
I love caffeine,it keeps me awake.
How many sugars do I take?
I take no sugar in my tea
because it taints the flavour, you see.
One in my...

A Big Helping of Kettle Corn
a big helping of kettle corn
a good classic movie starring spencer tracy
money left over from all bills paid....for once
no cares in the world....for now
monday nowhere in sight....at least not yet
a good woman still holding me down
me rubbing her back as we react to said spencer...

Kettle, Pond, Lake
Kettle, Pond, Lake

The kettle is boiling,
It’s cold outside,
Making myself warm,
By drinking some tea.

I look through the window,
I see the ducks,
They swim in the pond,
Aren’t they cold?

I decided to go out for a walk,
Discovering wonderful nature,
I sit beside the lake,
Thinking of all the wonderful things the...
