Best Sidetrack Poems

Summer, delightful smells of fresh lilac
lavender, mind beginning to sidetrack,

melodious sounds,  busy honey bees
circling around blossoming Lemon trees,

clear fresh aquamarine slow flowing stream
reflecting sky of deep cerulean,

chartreuse aquatic plants that gently stroke 
smooth coral pebbles under yellow oak,

bright saffron celestial star, water gleams
watermelon red,...

All things can tempt me~ I'm a scatter brain
Trying to focus causes a degree of pain
Distracted by a yummy treat or herbal tea
The slightest sounds arouse and sidetrack me
It's all too easy to sway my concentration
Toying with convoluted laws of attraction
My attention spins often on...

Near my house in the back,
bit lost on a sidetrack,
along the grassy track.

Turned a bit to backtrack,
closer is the right tack,
near my house in the back.

Yet things went out of whack,
more lost was a setback,
along the grassy track.

I put on a soundtrack,
and I thought to...

This Craft
My Little Sidetrack

The Hair of the Equine
So Beautifully Strong
A Symbol of their Noble Worth
From which I fashion Creations for your Adornment

For some a Humble Trinket
of a Creature they Adore
For some a Lasting Bond
to the One whom they Adored

Each Strand between my fingers
Carefully laid, Carefully...

Fr. Time is with us today, again, 
or still bilateral, 
I guess I should before
and after say.

No, you just did
how I will play.  
You would be redundant, 
to say it again, 
like I just did
not stay.

Just a reminder of our contractual ground rule,
you have...

It was a long walk, with time heeling at my shadow. 
(and somewhere miles away the garage door closed, and the exhaust flowed,
and a small dog died in her limp arms)
I was friendly with God. Only with small trepidation did I drink from the sordid...

The world can sputter around us,
deject and confound us
topple us up one side and right down the other
but I'll still be me and you'll still be you.

The people we love can abhor us,
can coddle too much or ignore us
verbalize truths which would be best if...

Rise to the challenge of the new day and don’t let your spirit go astray
Rise to the challenge of a new day and always remember to pray
Start your day with positive words and force a smile to please the world
Wrap your arms around a fool...

Knick Knack Paddy Whack
Can’t take back a wisecrack
If you wanna be a crackerjack
Earn a greenback from blackjack

Gotta buyback your backpack
Need to blister pack your flapjacks
Evident ebbing of drawbacks
Raises the bar for the sad sacks

The good life, so Kodak
So long as you don’t sidetrack
Selfie people hide...

Was his theme song to his life story
An old record...from present to history
A soundtrack
To any sidetrack...on his block
To his black...and back from his black

He knew the words
As though he had written them
He loved the melody...it composed him
As though he was the instrument
The best swing of...

What on her disgruntle to sidetrack my dear love-
When by all means all hers are the mainspring of my joy?
Her face; yea, hers, is the mellow effulgence of moon
That sweeps away malaise out of my face
Her smiles are the wellspring of my joy
That deluge me...

The origins of light born through the dark velvet,
Linger in the outer stratospheres of air.
Reaching out to the cosmic bodies connecting,
Pure sources of energy.

Expanding with the birth of every living creature,
Exhale with the breaths of the sky.
The collision of mindless mass;
Sidetrack them on to an...

Here come old grandpa 
He come movin' up slowly 
He got, big-a-belly 
He got, roley-poley 
He got, hair...on his ears
 
He got to be a grandpa he lived so many years 

He drink- no more, moonshine 
He got, gout toeitus 
He got, monkey back 
He...
