The Silver Ship To Heaven- Loss of Family Member
Roberta lived on this earth for so many years!
Was a great mother, wife, and grandmother, too.
A long and fulfilling life with joy, completion and no fears.
I was a bridesmaid, when she married my first cousin.
A match truly designed in heaven!
Their life filled with fun,music boating...

It’s a very generous gesture, I am sure you will agree
I have no idea who has paid for this – I wouldn’t know where to start

I Would Never Join a Club That Would Have Me As a MemberOh I'm sorry I didn't get it,
not to worry I won't forget it.
In order to win, it's not the contest,
but rather the spin. The more stupid
the parameters, the more ignoresponses
from amateurs. The more moronic the
directions, the more sophomoric
the reactions. Could u b...

Westboro Baptist Church Member At a FuneralWestboro Baptist Church Member At A Funeral
By Elton Camp
A sign he held and tee shirt wore
Same as he went to funerals before
Mourners gathered around the grave
To him, some outraged looks gave
While they were dressed all in black
He had “God Hates You” front & back
The...

An Unruly Member
"An Unruly Member"
Written: by Tom Wright
1998
From man's tongue
Flows both Honey of the Hive
And the sting of Bee's;
Many go about
Telling half truth's, tickling ears,
And casting stones;
The tongue,
Is not the problem per se,
But a symptom of the problem;
Using self diagnosis,
Many make attempts to Bandage
(Or control) the tongue,
Oblivious...

Bio
Ntate MemberThe fat man at the end of the long table
Speaks and we know he is not very able
All the time playing with his paper
We ask what will be his next caper
Speaks to the chairman in a stinging way
Changes his mind like trees that sway
Championed you...

A Valued Member of the FamilyLet me tell you a story….
About a year loving pet named big red,
I still can’t believe he’s dead.
He was such a wonderful dog,
He wasn’t a bump on a log.
He was my protector and friend,
My love for him will never end.
Everyone in the...

Abused Becomes The Abuser?They say the abused becomes the abuser,
but I will never turn out to be you.
Your shadows may haunt me,
but never consume.
Every scar you inflicted,
every tear you caused
has given me the strength to never fear.
Your cruelty taught me what not to become,
but it also taught me...

Sappho and Homer
Would that this poet were in Greece!
Her heart enchanted on its sunlit sands.
Her lover, kissing her porcelain hands.
His eyes, deep, dark as Kalmata olives.
The homes, white, with bright, blue tops.
Her heart beating so loudly, fearing it may stop!
But as the sun sets, she is far...
