Best Nifty Poems
After the remote Big Bang cosmic chaos
in infinite void primal dust of matter chose
to cluster in captivating clumps so designed
in ethereal forms of nebula defined.
The cosmic winter’s prolong dark night
illumined in the universal primeval light
of unique stellar creation of sprawling galaxy
ushered sparkling spring of heavenly ecstasy.
In the celestial singular celebration
from the tapestry of Scorpius constellation
flew million light years in the deep space
the butterfly nebula with the cosmic grace.

About fifty
Rhymes with nifty
Going on sixty
Same day today
As tomorrow hooray!
Fifty is ten past forty
Age is but a number and counting time tends to bore me
I'm like a puppy that's all dirty
A kid son, I'm barely over thirty
As for the big five-0
Be proud of all that you may now know
Farewell my elder
Mad respect, for sure
And
Congratulations for being
About fifty

In his spare time goes on poem writing sprees,
he lives in Florida but not as a retiree,
todays his birthday,
alls we can say is,
Happy 60th Mike you are pretty nifty!
12-12-16
We raise our glasses while waving the black flag
to friends sailing through the mid-century drag.
When embracing Kathy and Ginny
we will concede to know the skinny
since passions rise steady while body parts sag.
Days will come and days will go,
Some are fast and some are slow.
But a Birthday in November,
Is something to remember?
Why? Your honest expression has touched so many faces,
With all your travels in various places.
I know you’re fond of Lucille Ball,
Hopefully it hangs somewhere on your wall.
Rumor has it your turning near fifty,
I find this special and somewhat nifty.
Without any more of thoughts and words to say,
I just want to wish you a Happy Birthday!
Do not lose your innocence
in your quest for independence.
In life matters, sit not on the fence
to avoid a fatal consequence...
To have a meaningless presence
is to make a meaningful absence.
It takes more than intelligence
to have positive influence.
It is easy to conceal an evidence
but hard to kill a guilty conscience.
It takes character and competence
to have complete confidence.
Self development and diligence
bring expertise and excellence.
Overlooking moral decadence
gives birth to timely turbulence.
The divine sacrifice for offense
is sincere and pure penitence.
When our virtue loses its cadence,
our core creed loses its credence.
When good souls swim in silence,
gruesome men preen in violence.
My mind is filled with thinking.
My belly’s filled with food.
My body may be shrinking
But today I will not brood.
I’m sitting where it’s shady
With the river at my feet,
Just a New York City lady
With no deadlines I must meet.
A fireboat goes zipping,
Leaving foam within its wake.
The joggers’ sweat is dripping;
Running now is a mistake.
I come to my conclusions
When I’m calm and have the time,
Giving in to the illusions
They will make a nifty rhyme.
Oh! Lord in your darkness, creator black you make colours light;
Your aura shines glows and grows ever so colour bright;
And I see the twinkles, those twilight's I see the vastness colours slight;
~
My eyes in awe and wonder; colours flash and flora shouts;
White centred express ward out spatters out;
~
Surrounded by mixed amber, blues, and purples hues;
Fluttering moves through the vastness universal night/days/-days/nights colourful view;
~
Oh! and in the heavens, you just fly on by, colours brilliants you stand by...
Wave, flutter and move your view liken a marbled lit, nifty named is the... Nebula butterfly

the Nifty Named Nebula Picture chosen #1 The Butterfly
Sights of ruby silence peer through the sky
like heaven’s guiding light; galaxies start to cry.
Glimmer and shimmer with stardust falling,
hearing from the distance other nebulas calling.
Time standing still as the moon begins to sigh.
Sights of ruby silence gleam and stream with glow,
its brilliance glistens into a fading tangerine echo.
Separate yet united, the Red Square lives in ease
without sands-of-time, or the chill of the breeze.
Beauty and adoring charm this nebula does bestow.
Sights of ruby silence fear not what the future brings-
celestially divine…as the constellation Serpens sings.
I chose: Picture #7 "THE RED SQUARE"
