Best Saws Poems

What playground does not hold the magic lure
Of see-saws firmly braced upon their stands?
What child resists excitement, felt for sure
In ups and downs: the hard thump when he lands;

The surging thrill of bouncing up again-
To know that when he's hit that lowest low,
It's followed by a swing to new heights when
He'll know once more the...

Seahorses on see-saws prance, sashay and dance
   gliding majestically under the sea.
No clip nor clop for this aquatic steed 
   for no legs adorn its knight-in-armour body.

   as they gambol gently and frolic about.
But of course it's a horse

He even shot and killed Santa Claus.

She Says
She says she’s 29
38
54
22
19, 84
And the fire of my desire for her 
Grows insatiably with each word.

She tests my head,
My heart…
Her sole consolation 
Awash in the tides of passion
Searching for my hand.

She says she’ll make me strong, tough,
A big man you’ll be…
The flicker in her eye’s a mystery
Unaware as to the well of this...
