As Her Beauty Rivals Red, Red Roses

Gift unto her red, red roses
And perhaps a kiss or two
In her portrait she reposes
With her beauty through and through.

Dare the dawn admire her beauty
For morn needs its fairest queen
To live and love is life's duty
Her eyes bright shimmering...

Mediocrity Rivals Corruption
Titanic battle unfold as foreseen and planned 
Almost the egg and the chick story ever told 
A complex battle and partnership that desecrates 
While they flex for supremacy of a land barren

Tomorrow’s temples lie in reckless shambles   
Good has never been discredited to...

Father Daughter Rift Rivals Depth of Mariana Trench
Argh resolution between
     self and eldest
     dear daughter more remote,
now then locating

     a left handed monkey wrench,
cuz she feels this papa
     did deliberate smote
her upside the head, knocking

Premium Member Rivals Good Sex
Used to ride my bike every morning
Five miles round our complex
Got pretty high from this morning workout
It even rivalled good sex

Okay, okay, I'm gonna take that back
After thoughtful consideration
What was I thinking to say such a thing
But need both in moderation

Especially now that I'm a...

Clash of the Rivals
West Virginia was led by a Heisman contender,
They would never let an unranked team under their skin,
Never thought they would be forced to surrender,
They thought they had it in the bag, just another win.

The Panthers listened to LeSean McCoy,
Never expecting to beat their rival team,
West...

The Rivals
The rivals
Finally I realize 
My destiny is great 
Cos is obvious on

Am to hot for there weak 
Souls

To know who I am

Rivals
I did friendship with cool breeze
Because it passed from my window
From her window
Because it understood my mood
And comforted me 
When my heart was broken 
And I needed someone
Because I couldn’t find a better messenger than it
So
I did friendship with breeze
But I didn’t know
Breeze is my...

Staff of Rivals Under Lincoln
After reading Team of Rivals under Lincoln
by Doris Kearns Goodwin

Am sure that I must be correct,
History had tremendous effect;
Not frightened,
And enlightened,
No matter what subject I select.

Jim Horn

There is nothing like a loud crowd,
Who really think they are endowed;
My intuition,
A politician
That has head high in the...

Beauty That Rivals The Red Rose

He the gardener she the rose
She was only flower he chose
Days he gave her his very best
Under moonlight glow they both rest.

With great care he keeps her from harm
Always enamored by her charm
Whenever she mentions her thirst
Sate her needs, he...

Premium Member Rivals To Consider
If I had more time, I might have spent it more wisely.
Until I return to my heels and the nothingness timely 
I was guided by those who had gone before me. 
I can view my way of hiding as pacing steadily. 
This method will be sought by my...

A thorny story
I share a tree with a story to tell:
We were out for a walk round Dufton Pike
when this straggly hawthorn conveyed its spell,
holding my gaze on our afternoon hike.
A closer study showed not one but two
thorns twisted, contorted in a struggle,
their limbs,  their joints...

Scientists Sigh
No idea of this novel virus thing
The powerful, politics loudly sing
Advised about  money to be made
Plotting how rivals can quickly fade

When to reality they finally awake
It will be new power sharing plans, to make
Seers tell us the worst is yet to come
A few at...

Some Polticians
Men who hulking thugs lobby, 
Now and then their hobby
To winning rivals clobber, 
Hitting them until they slobber; 
Their tunes for the piper
A much worse viper,
Venom as good a wiper
As enemy- silencing sniper.

Old owners of power 
Mythical the eleventh hour
Their only message for The Youth:
A...

The Arms of Prize Fighters
The arms prize fighters swing
While in watched boxing ring
Riches speedily bring
And Buccaneer make king...

The arms prize fighters swing
In banks swell the prized thing
Six figures the dollar,
In finance now taller!
Angels but without wings
And I'd swear not one sings...

The arms prize fighters swing
Other arms put in sling.
