Best Kid In A Candy Store Poems

First off let's make it clear I ain't funny
And I don't start conversations out with bonjour
But there comes a time in every mans life
Where he needs a good Man-icure

When you hit the age of me on the same feet
It's time to give the old dogs...

As the hourglass gets filled with sand,
they take time to ask me who I am,
but who are YOU?      to ask such a question...

Did I invite you into my world,
with bright pink signs pointing to my direction?

Why do I write poetry?
I am sure some people here wonder just why I do! 
For my poems were once described as ‘simple’
And to others they are a pile of old pooh

I have learned so much since I started writing
Now I am flying as free...

Marriage is much like going to the grocery store to select your favorite fruit…What may look 
good on the shelf? May have a different taste once consumed at home? As I walked through 
the isles of freshly picked fruits where they all laid on display,...

Tick tock...tick tock...
life is counting down on your internal clock.

Memories which were as if they occurred yesterday,
turn to flashes of moments that seem to fade away.

People you once knew
walk by without a clue.

The times you once shared
exist as if you were never there.

Years fly...friends die...
and...

Nay, despite failing to make the grade,
     this bluesy well red, duff mute 
     average white band hit,
     hard knock school alumnus
jack of all trades master of none bumped along

Ernie was a hell raiser
A daredevil of sorts.
He was popular in school,
A natural at sports.

A kid in a candy store
Is the way Ernie felt.
All he had to do was smile,
And every girl would melt.

The 80's Became The Present Again

On the coast of Oahu
here, I was on a beach bus,
circling a sweet picture
in my mind,
white sands, blue seas, palms,
rolling all along
in a candy store.
It was a beautiful beach setting,
a beautiful scenic bus ride ...
how can it get any better?
Three...

This love is like nothing I've ever felt before
I feel like a fat kid in a candy store
The way we laugh and stare each other 
Let's me know I want you for forever 
The only reason I fall asleep 
Is so that maybe you could...

of the online used book market
which is piling up the stock from all of those 
vulnerable little bookstore---
the smart ones, 
seeing the writing on the wall & no doubt, 
the commercials for kindles, nooks and the
