Beautiful Jamaica,land of my birth,
This little dot,specially prepared by Mama Earth,
World best seasoning,grown by our dirt,
And the Jamaican Rum,bad nuh blouse and skirt,
Beautiful Jamaica,land so sweet,
A formal dinner or a party in the street,
Our vibes,our style so unique,
Our warmth,our culture,no other can beat,
Jamaica,Jamaica,land we love,
Touring Jamaica feel free like a dove,
Our rivers,beaches,beautiful sunlight up above,
Sample our tasty meals,you'll find one that you love,
Jamaica,Jamaica,land so great,
Great runners,great music,embrace our taste,
God or Jah Rasta Far I,embrace our faith,
Take a trip to Jamaica,it's never too late.....

There once was a little fairy
Who staggered down the road feeling merry
Along came a man
With a two metre wang
He bumped into her and popped her cherry

Limerick
A blue whale's tongue weighs more than an elephant
Now aren't you really glad you tuned in?
There are two hundred million insects for every human
Wouldn't have gone camping if I knowed that!
We weigh slightly less when the moon is directly overhead
Due to the gravitational effect
Too bad the moon isn't shining all day long
100 lightning strikes occur worldwide every second
Stay indoors!!!
Humans grow about 8mm every night while asleep
But revert back to their normal height the next day
Oh so glad, otherwise we'd spend a fortune on new clothes
250 people have fallen off the Leaning Tower of Pisa
Guess they leaned a little bit too much
1 in 28 American school-aged children
Have a parent in either state or federal prison
Holy crap! A really great example to follow
A single healthy human male produces enough sperm
In two weeks to impregnate every fertile woman on the planet
Uh! I volunteer my services... no charge!
Although gold is a heavy dense metal
It is generally considered non-toxic
Gold flakes may even be ingested in foods or drinks
No wonder restaurant meals are so high
Pope Francis once worked as a bouncer in a Buenos Aires bar
“Doing God's work?”
Mozart wrote a canon entitled “Leck mich im Arsch”
Which literally translated means “Lick me in the ****”
Nuff said!!!

Hitler accidentally bombed his nephew's house in Liverpool
So his nephew joined the U.S. to fight with the Allies

Rumi Nuff for Us
Drizzling passes by filters a rainbow,
its aqua burst nigh as simple dews grow,
filters a rainbow, drizzling passes by
as simple dews grow, its aqua burst nigh.
Tattles chartreuse fronds of its bless descent,
splash in hidden ponds faces smile advent,
of its bless descent, tattles chartreuse fronds,
faces smile advent, splash in hidden ponds.
Petals drift downward like musical notes
suite heard through the fjord, its harmonic floats,
like musical notes, petals drift downward
its harmonic floats, suite heard through the fjord.
Birdsong through the vale, up along the lea,
magic wove a tale, sung aloud for me,
up along the lea, birdsong through the vale,
sung aloud for me, magic wove a tale.
Deep lush spectacles a trade sparks exact,
dipping projectiles indulgent contact,

Nature dwells in us for a better life,
champ's mindset adjust to keep your dream rife,

Sprinkled beauty's charm challenges as subtle,
they are arm in arm the perfect couple,
challenges as subtle, sprinkled beauty's charm
the perfect couple, they are arm in arm.

A priceless road I find
dangerous game blasphemy,
Wing destiny. To my statue,
leaning forward and less
backward down helpless knees,
begging for A breadcrumb, asking
blood red wine. Quenching
thirst of the almighty to his
throne, for what we don't
know, we will learn to speak
tongue as we follow his
nameless lemon drop
in the lion's den feeding
all who starve... With thunder Nuff
Love!!!!!! God has handed
freely..... Striking, I dare not abuse
thy neighbor shooting anger
out thy hatred for the angels
scatter... A natures beast, Galour
Which has released mi from evil.... As we
come heaven's door,crawling
to meet his feet...... Tu wash dem
Clean.
Tribute tu di mi teacher, who has expanded mi mind to be A great writer; Richard Palmer..... Thanx mi friend and soul- mate for our strength will cury pon.

Dramatic Verse
From far and wide.
To see the
Big Island Rattlers
Verses
The Desert Snears
Alot of planning
Across sport negotiations
Stuff to say in conversation
Nothing's ever been like
This before.
From riding someone's coattails
To individual dominance
Secure the worm
and cast the rod
there really jumping tonight
Tune the band
Rent the hall
We call this one
a humdinger
Say, did you see the beautiful
Smiling face
She think she's pick that right one
You know that special one let's
Just wait and see
Bayshore special
And a Desert Delight
Time for talking
Is whining low
The hype men
Getting a taste for crow
Tell everybody
Like I know
It's getting down
Tonight!

Ballad
A friend asked if I would write in protest of the drivers from old Mexico.
For what ever good it will do here I go.
It is not just the drivers that are taking over the good ole U.S of A.
They’re swarming across our borders, hundreds of them every single day.
You know if they don’t like what they have, why the h-ll don’t they change it?
Have their own tea party, throw a big fit.
It’s time America stops playing nursemaid to all these foreign affairs.
These places we always help how often do they share.
I don’t know abut you guys but enough is enough.
It’s time we get tough and show em we’ve got the stuff.
I thought those dudes in Washington were there to represent us.
Cause I’m just about to get mad enough to cuss.
Did you ever wonder why everything is costing so much.
It’s because we support everybody but ourselves, we’ve become that easy
touch.
Those idiots in Washington think that if we have a surplus that’s bad.
They give it all away and then buy it back, now that’s pretty sad.
If we wore our feelings on our sleeves they still wouldn’t care.
We have made ourselves the underdog, and that’s what is unfair.
Write or call your senator, representative, congressman bend their ear.
Tell them you’re tired of what is going on and you thought they might like to
hear.
And if that don’t work.
Then we’ll just have to find another new jerk.

If we,
The words whisperer,
Are the ones that have the power
Of the silver quill, then
Let us move, in oneness,
And versify the earth
With more crème caramel
And not of salt,
Nor, of vinaigrette;
Let’s cultivate our thoughts
And rewrite our differences,
With lovely rhyme and songs;
O, my fellow words whisperer,
Come…O, come
And let’s have some fun!
By the way,
Did y’all enjoy your soup today?
Nuff said!
Note: Hello Joe, I enjoyed reading your poetry/blogs
and I love your “Nuff said!” hope you don’t
mind, if I borrowed it …..for a life time…..lol!
Thank You!

Guess what I am
Saying
My attempt at
Conveying
How I really feel
Long as you
Love me
And what your
Thinking of me
Is the way you
Really feel

I think communication
Expresses love in
Degrees
I want you to stay
Don't turn and
Walk away
I wanna let
You know
How I feel
Ooh be doing ah

Gotta grasp
My appeal
Swigg dooby
Doo whoop

Let me know if

Long as we are
Together

Know we're for real
Ain't no yesterday
That's what we say
When tomorrow
We can speak
About the thrill
Old and gray
Our objective
Our new collective
Long as we keeping

Long silences between words
And the words are murmured half thoughts
Sentences you or I finish in our heads
Following chains and trains of thought
In comfortable silences together
Changing subject on a whim
Then realizing you’re still there
Embellishing and polishing details
As we sit and sip the sunset down
Enjoying each others thoughts
In southern comfort
Staring west
I don't call her my other half for no reason
Sometimes it's vu deja eternal
