Best Prissily Poems
Mesmerizing Butterfly - Enamoured SoulTropical quadra plateau, Amazing bright sunny,
Glided waterfall Carrying happiness in their gunny.
Long nodding flower's joyously plumed,
Everbody waving happily, the herald bloomed.
Eureka, I love this heaven on earth!
Hazy perished hills, houses trenching at the outskirts,
Swaning over to the fluctuating peak of mountains, roosted with struts.
Orchid waftured,...

Crazy Cat Lady MaybeInitially, Lady adopted just the gray One for love and fun.
A pal gifted another, a kitten who needed a Mother.
Though spayed, One let Two nurse and her milk did disburse,
said a Vet whose face crunched, bemused and confused.
For One and Two days passed with Lady’s...

She Dared the TigersDaring the tigers to toss her aside
To flay her open, and eat her hide
She sat prissily and primly, happily too.
Planning to take these tigers out of the zoo.
The tigers got wind of it and threw her over the wall.
They liked not having to hunt dinner,...

That Is Confidential InformationToday I spoke to a fourth grader who wondered what he did wrong.
Why was he sent to me - the school counselor?
I told him that I had missed him and wanted to see him.
To check out how he was doing.
He opened up, telling me many...

A Mural of CourseA mural painter? Why not? I asked myself.
My husband was inside, glued to a Lazy-Boy recliner
watching five TVs simultaneously.
He would not have a fit about something he did not see, right?
How often does he come to the porch anyway?
I began to plot out my...

Trixie Throws Me IdeasPoetry prances into my dendrite field, taking charge,
Taking over, taking me hostage
Perhaps I want to paint today, I tell her.
She scoffs. Smacks me lightly on my brain stem.
Makes fun of me.
Calls me names.
I am not in the mood, I tell her, prissily.
Convincing no one.
Least of...

Reviving romantic roosters respectfully

Tempting tenuous trickster trout tastefully...

Glamorous GiraffeGlamorous giraffe was more fashionable than most
I was fortunate enough to be her derby host
I took her around and showed her off to others
She was embraced by children, fathers and grandmothers
Others tried to develop the kind of look she exhibited
Truly a fashion statement, but totally...

They Trained Their BirdsThey trained their birds to stay incredibly still.
Like statues, reported my cousin Mrs. McGill.
The birds did not make a single sound as they supped.
The table was linen, and all prissily gussied up.
The birds were the best trained I had ever seen.
Their statuesque presence was totally...

sitting among ducksshe prissily sat among ducks on a lovely Tuesday
wishing her hopes and dreams and confidence away
they did not dissuade her, did not get in her way
their unconcerned attitude kind of uplifted her on this day
ducks are wonderful she thought, I should marry a duck
her last...

jump alreadyThe cattails and frogs were less than amused today
By mallard duck, dressed so weird down by the bay
Duck named Tuck was getting ready to dive
Bees laughed at him, and raced back to their hive
Damselflies and dragonflies flitted around merrily
They liked ducks who acted silly and...
