Premium Member Quite a Start For Old Jb
Executive orders signing spree
  Quite a start for old JB

Killed off the jobs of myriad employees
  Put a chokehold on the oil industry

But in the name of his pitch for unity
  Lets look at JB's orders with impunity

Rejoining the 2015 Paris 'dialogue-ees'

Premium Member The Usa Is Not Perfect
The USA is not perfect
  never has been
    never will be 

Unlike Russia, which has
  ‘no alcohol problem’ 
     ‘no civil disobedience’
        ‘no LGBTQ populace’
Not to mention no truth...

Four Seasons
Winters boldness has its ways,
Of bringing coldness through its snowflakes,
Through the windows its always viewed,
But within it we humans are rude,

Spring dandelions bring us smiles,
Puts us outside back for a while, 
Its nature starts to show,
Those seeds are watered,
Did you know?

Summers heat is so intense,
Takes...

Come To Your Daddys Arms
Come to your daddy’s arm
When the life becomes rough 
When the ways are lost 
When the hope cant` be found 
When the people can’t` be trusted
When you find yourself all alone

Who grabs your hand when you fall 
Who wipes your...

A Child From Sirya Had a Dream
A CHILD FROM SYRIA HAD A DREAM 
 
 peace was his dream
 
 his dream became steam 

 the steam became unseen

 on the hand of a bad regime
 
 his family was his dream 

 playing around was his dream

Moment of My Heart
Moment of my heart.

With sunrise.
On the first light of the sun hitting my face through the window of my room.
On the sound of the first ring of my alarm, I woke up.

 I was full of energy,...

Panoramic Display
It was always the little things
that caught her eye — 
the carnation crispness of a hello on a tired suit lapel ... 
A gentle smile exchanged for shoddy service
given with a frown 
Yes, it was the exquisite details
that mattered the most
The small pearls ...

SILENT LOVE

she took my heart she didn't know
 
I and my heart became her prisoner she didn't know 

I loved her with all my heart and my soul she didn't know 

I watched her passing by day by day she didn't know
 
I spoke to...

Ilhan Omer would give away money
Twelve hundred a month, each spouse and honey
   It sounds very nice
   Pollinates our spice
You and I fund it ~ Ha, ha! Real funny!...

Some like it hot
