Premium Member A Lean New Year
I let out a scream when I stand on the scales -
the bitter truth, I’ve joined the species of whales!
I plan to go on a new weight loss diet
food is grilled, you must never fry it!

Those pre packed diet foods are such a racket
there’s more...

lay your head on my shoulder
feel free to cry, but know I care
     if you shake, I will steady you
          if you fall, I’ll lift you

Leanne loves milking her cows 
Everyday she dreams of those cows when she is away
A noise she hears
Nay says the horse, Nay says the cows
Nay says Linda, Nay says James
Everyday she hears voices

LEANne on me.....

Please bare a moment to pray and have thought for the...

You Can Lean On Me
His mind was like a snail crawling slowly on the ground. 
He was behind, confused and lost in his venture to learn. 
So many obstacles stood in the way of this little child. 
To overcome them, he never once did try.

My love for you now aches with an acute, piercing concern.
I feel your emotions shudder inside my own heart’s downturn.
Lean on me, let me absorb your aches as maternal will not break.

The Lean Old Men
The lean old men in my vicinity
wake to find themselves a day older
then turn away from the mirror to reflect
on their miserable circumstance.
Then they masque their decay with cologne,
snap on their one-piece spandex sportswear
and wheel off to meet their ancient colleagues for tea.

Along the way...

Words Aren'T the Tree To Lean On
I'm not abnormal
just different kind of normal

through my chambers
tantalized horse is storming 
(storms make trees take deeper roots)

Dolly's vinyl began skipping
so my God put his paper hat on

that God of mine wears a paper hat
and you wear the fear the same way

we all have rooted...

I Need To Lean On Jesus
I need to lean on Jesus. 
 More and more!
 He’s gives hope and
is worth living for!

I need to lean on Jesus. 
My life depends on it.
It’s one thing to say it.  
Another to live it!

I need to lean on Jesus.  There may...

Lean Times
Lean Times
When times are lean and mean I have to conserve
I rely on pocket change in reserve
Like pennies, dimes and quarters
Times like these I might loiter
Anything to fill my tank and preserve...

Limerick: Once a lean Lecher in his nineties

Once a lean Lecher in his nineties
Wondered if he could relive his twenties:
He went on a diet
Of French fries and cutlet:
The Wench said it felt like rigor mortis !

Lean On Me
Today is not a good day for you
and this makes me sad
because I feel for you in my heart

Just come to me 
and let me hold you
in my arms
I am here to offer you hope 
this is not a false alarm

please...

Once knew a gal named Lean Jean
The skinniest young chickie ever seen
When she turned to the side
Wondered where she did hide
Even her shadow disappeared from the scene
