Best Lap Poems

Momma, I love to lie on your sweet lap, 
Listening rapt to the stories you tell, 
Sometimes, your words lull me to take a nap, 
And I sleep deep, all my fears you dispel. 

Your lap is the most comfortable place, 
I can lie here...

     Divulges puerile battles during idle procedure
     Relic compiling spotlight show seduction 
     Library ivory tower truth siphoning beseecher

with a cat lying on my lap
a sough whispers in the trees 
as a summer day begins fading
the tiger lilies below bend as if trumpeting
a musical for ears yet to come into existence
evaporating the din of civilization beyond
the universe is collapsing rapidly 
onto the balcony
where...

“Without you I am finished; as if I had never placed footfall,”
“Thanks for that Pete, I think you’re neat,”
“Like some new software?”
“Don’t worry my treat”

“Windows 8 we’ll pull it down,
  Here it comes,”

“WHOOOOOO! that was great!”

“I like it when it’s fast, when you press...

It’s a beautiful day in May.
Morning light comes covered in swirling mist
Piles of silver clouds move above
A cool zephyr blows from the South
Verdant leaves flutter in sweet murmurs 
Birds tweet on treetops singing carols of love
Bees hum a resonant orchestral murmur 
How these common scenes...

At the shopping mall
A long line up waits
Children excited
To chat with Santa
As they wait their turns
They day dream of toys
Underneath the tree
Coming Christmas Day
Each child has a photo 
Taken with Santa Claus
A picture to treasure
For many years to come
With their memories
Of that special day...

Ate a cookie, warm and sweet, with oatmeal and chocolate.
Yum. Yum.
The dog was on my lap in seconds, begging me for some.
 
No way, girlfriend.
It is not my fault you woofed your candy bar down already.
Problem is, these cookies are individually wrapped
 
As you unwrap...

my keyboard  sometimes sticks and snarls up my story
went to the store and got  jiffy lube and what a glory
my fingers slide across the letters typing faster
did a quick  hit of the duster called air blaster.

Dusk lingers over the broken hill
Night creeps slowly beneath gloomy skies
Tired souls scramble to their weary beds
While I kneel down on the old dusty carpet and pray.
My spirit groans but I could not utter a single word 
Overshadowed by an unusual burden
I forced out a...

"Inhaling the sea --  Lovers in the lap of 
nature"

Inhaling the sea,
She primed my heart!!

Early morning going onto the sea bed,
My chubby cheeks blushed in red.
Inhaling the breeze, felt so fresh,
By that time, Remembered my Longlasting 
mesh.

That salubrious weather, those scenic 
charm,
Wanted you to...

I am  the porcelain dermis seat;
I have been greeted by many without deceit.

Doing the dirty work; I don’t mind -
For this is my purpose; my daily grind -

I watch young children potty train;
Their parent’s efforts are not in vain.

Will all young  men please...

Learning Young

From back when I was 7 and 8, 
When candy bars cost 5 cents, 
And  “being polite” meant 
Even to strangers.  The wrinkled,
Baggy, old man, who
Lived in the basement apartment
Next-door, with the pass-time 
Of sitting outside on his 
Stoop atop five steps...
