Best Playtime Poems

She had lots of fun
Hot dates in the sun
Her body was willing to share.
Defeated by time
And squeezed like a lime
For comfort she plays solitaire....

I know nothing brighter than disdain
for algebra’s insane fascination with irrational outcomes,
dissonating my natural empathy
with harmonic blends and rhythms,
patterns of fore-giving symmetry
and holonic wholy closure.

By contrast,
the only polymath I take to,
warm wet eco-polity compost
transforming into well-fed democratic root systems

Feeding on more than geometry,
is sacred geologic,

Dreary dreams drift
Sorry schemes sift
Lousy lines lift


Frenzy frames face
Gifts glimpsing grace
Troubling times trace


Play pretty poise
Verge vibrant voice
Chant clever choice


Mind moving mouse
Grip gaining grouse
Book beaming browse


Stay singing streams
Dust display dreams
Shout succinct screams


Live lovely light
Nudge nagging night
See special sights


Zealous zest zooms
Reach rustic rooms
Bright blossoms bloom


See sexy sway
Weave...

Hopscotch
with whip and top
or marbles and five stones-
pastimes lost now in memory's
chasm....

Sung to the tune of Aura Lee or Love Me Tender

First verse:

Precious baby go to sleep
Now that day is done.
Close your eyes and not a peep.
Precious little one.

Chorus:

You are lovely, you are sweet
All day long you play.
Now it's evening twilight time
"Til another day.

Second verse:

On the...

Mercy!   How playtime has evolved since I was a Hoosier lad!
In the olden days you made-do with what little you had.
Our cell phone was a string stretched 'twixt two old soup cans.
That way we avoided strict federal communications bans!

Our swing was an old...

Peace of mind greets cheer,
Live a playtime fond;
Ask for heart to steer,
Yield to soul's sure bond;
Touch an inner core,
Intuit pure frolic;
Measure more and more,
Exclude thoughts toxic.
Give finesse fine say,
Allow your heart room;
Live with grace each day,
Opt for sparkling blooms;
Rise with flair that airs:
Etch love's grand...

It's the best part of being a kid,
creating worlds at whim, blasting
bad guys away, saving the world
for Mom, Dad, Nana and Pop-Pop.

When we grow up, we can't play,
though we try to, with sex, drugs,
booze or fast cars-- but playtime?
The closest we can get to it...

a new white walls
jars of bright color paints
no longer full

Wake up from your sleep
Its about time we reap
The happiness of the moment
Going on and on like a current

Lets go out in the sun
Its time we take a run
The rain will soon drizzle
Everything will soon frizzle

Today its so bright
Hold my hand tight
Imagine we can fly
Up...

where I play
its safe to say

my friends they really care!

I try new forms
reveal my storms

they catch me when I err!

don't want to gush!
words turn to mush!

I even stretch despair!

when games get tough
I mean really rough

they hold me with their cheer!

their love allows
my muse to rouse

and...

Words need more words
Let thought be heard


Rhymes and more rhymes
Time after time


Thought flavours thought
In subtle lot


Day after day
So much to say


Night blossoms night
Such special sights


Cite a fond cite
Write after write


Wordplay feels right
In blur of sight



Word craft can sing
Hurl, whirl and fling


I am I see
My melody

It's a lovely day to go out and play,
But before you do, take time to pray.
Give thanks to God, for His creation,
Give thanks to Him, for your elation.

This world is here for you to enjoy,
It's by God's design, not satans ploy.
Enjoy His sun, play, and...

Style then the touch of cheer that comes,
Intuit the feel of joy that spreads;
Mind mingles much in streams that sum,
Profound the will that echoes trade;
Live in the light of happy joy,
Embrace the truth that tells you how.
Peace funds fond sights in lovely ploys,
Love offers proof...

Words emerge
Curious patterns
New from old strains


Thought unfurls
Streaming a touch
New version unfolds


Ideas evolve
A new appeal
Sparks devotion


Images spring
Vivid pictures tell
Frame a new prime


Colours and tints
Shades of grey scales
Black and white tones


Playtime parades
People plunder peace
Poise playing proud


Words start 
Words end
Words intervene


Beauty betrays
Blessings bring boom
Being breeds becoming


Feel each feeling
Thinking...
