To Be King In the Land of Princess
To be king in the land of princess
You must be dauntless.
When invited to tea you must comment on
Her appearance and dress
With open candidness.
Express
How glad and honored you are to be in the
Presence of the princess who will know you
Are playing out her childishness.
Bless
All invisible and...

Glory To the Ukrainian Freedom Fighters
Glory to the Ukranian Freedom Fighters
 
Democracy and freedom are under attack
Beaurocracy and greed man,
Don’t let this war criminal come back
Putin is lootin’ the streets of Ukraine
His crimes against humanity are bordering on insane
His unprovoked aggression shows the damage in his brain
A corrupt megalomaniac whose only...

   Vast sums of money
     enormous chunks of time
   All spent on losing weight ~
     usually ruined by dinnertime

Premium Member Marla
Marla was a friend of mine
I knew from working at UTMB
Over 10 years we worked together
In the department of pathology

Though we actually worked
In two different locations there
We still became pretty good friends
Leaving me memories of times we shared

Besides her friendship with me
To all, Marla was...

Daughter's Perspective of Her Mother
Wrinkles caress her face.
A child emerges from within.
Smile straight from her heart.
Advice given from wisdom.

Enjoy your life when you are young.
Never just sit around doing nothing.
Someday you will be old like me.
Wanting to branch out, seeing the world.

I never went to far from home.
Never got...

Springtime With Edouard Manet
Easter is a time where we construe
The beauty of renewal blooming through
Little birds that chirp above the vales
While sweeter ladies peep at passing males

Charming is the humour passing round
Faint scent of Tulips, Daffodils abound
Strolling couples giggle by a stream
Planning the delights they like to dream

Gazebos...

Premium Member In Builda Land
Once upon a time,
in a Kansas City Public School,
There was a teacher named Builda.
We are all given the same rules.
Every year, the principal says,
"The first two weeks of school are
not for teaching any academics.
The first two weeks are for teaching
character traits, building trust,
and bonding with...

Commuterland
Commuterland

Our estate is very posh,
Executives, and oh by gosh
Our Sunday evening cocktails are the thing.
Mortgaged to the eye-ball we are,
We don't even own our own car,
Matter of fact we don't own anything.

We're all driving 4X4's,
And mine's as twice as big as yours,
Every day we drive...

Premium Member Like the Early Morning Mists
Like the early morning mists 
That rise from the waters’ depths
Memories emerge in swirls and twists
Foggy shadows of lives past 
Of them all, childhood scenes outlast
‘Membrances of dear, familiar faces and  
Fragmented moments of particular places
Emotions retrieved from those distant spaces.

Of my family, I...

Novel Days and Nights
The house amid the spruces and pines,
Had stood for several decades.

Many a story was told and written,
Experiences both pleasurable and difficult.

There were weather worn benches,
Where the seniors would sit and weave their stories.

Many miracles and blessings were experienced,
Generations thankful  to be here.

Each summer they...

I received it in the mail…a card addressed to me!
I’m to meet some people for a luncheon…and this luncheon will be free!

The food pictures that grace the front of the card are, of course, a masquerade
for directly under these is this question:
Confused about hearing aids?

Cancellations
Schools, parades and lots of trips,
Cruises, flights and races;
Tennis matches and events
In other crowded places:

All are being canceled or
Postponed for times awaiting.
No one knows how soon is safe
When one’s recalculating.

Expos, luncheons, weddings, shows,
Surgeries elective
Crossed off calendars because
Of cautioning directive.

Life appears to be on hold
As virus...

Want what they don’t need

Claim the Skies Back
Claim the Skies Back
Eastern Alleppo, weighed down like a ghetto
Destroyed like Navaho 
By the unfathomably destructive deeds
of a single generation
Distorted venerations based on misinterpretations
Perpetuate these continuingly heinous altercations
Contriving unjustifiable infiltrations
Forcing unnecessary segregations of nation upon nation
While so many of us sit stationed for the crossing
Watching...
