Best Switch Poems

If you could step into my shoes
Would you see the things I see,
Would your head feel dizzy like mine is now
Or would you still walk easily?

If I resisted like you do
Would I be this wreck of a girl,
Do you think I'd have turned out stronger?

Sometimes I muse that life can be a *itch
When every prospect seems of rosy hue
From cerulean sky a fatal glitch
Precipitates its mischief; then I rue
That naive expectation of a child
On whom Dame fortune yet has only smiled

Then something in my skin begins to itch
In parts...

Uncommon Sun frisks mercury— heat's blight
On Winter's frame around tree trunks and boughs,
Shrieking frost shattered— melts in her tears, rights.

Atypical thaw for this season's height,
Where my mime yet waits to move for the clouds;
Uncommon Sun frisks mercury— heat's blight.

While setting back at the set of...

House of commons, Quebec i think,? questions and
Odd answers; the air waxed thick..up to  point..' debate
Was staged, till the veil of control, almost got frayed.'
Yet oppression was to carry this bout' the speaker flipped
And switched it out, on the un-reigned shouts, a little grim?Yet...

You say your feet hurt?
   So, how're your hands?
   --They're fine
That's right... They're fine
   ~ Flip the switch

You say work is demanding?
   So, how's the pay?
   --Pretty good
That's right... Ppretty good

My golden dog,
two days after his death
I can still smell his fur
in my nose,
in my brain.
After frantic efforts,
we shared his last breath.
I watch the life leave
his eye.
His name was Cosmos and
I think there is a switch
on the spirally DNA
that's turned on more
for some than most.
Those...

No tugs at his line; it just goes limp
Mighty fisherman feels like a wimp
     Looking back at his bait box
     Wasn’t prepared for the shock
A gull flew off with one of his shrimp

I was talking to an...

Tappita Tappita Tappita--CLICK
type it all before I spl  it
Cogs snap ripping loose my switch
Reality tilted stilted about to pitch
Your about to meet my true inner B***H!

That filter between wrong and right
Losing focus clean outta sight...
thoughts all jumbled...it screws me all up when we fight
Here's...

Be it sunny or cloudy

The weather determines my mood

On a bright sunshiny morning

My mood is upbeat and cheery

And conversely on cloudy days

My mood is sombre and sad

I really wish this weren't true

I see people every day wearing big smiles

And I wonder if they have down...

The Light Switch

Our minds are like a light switch
We turn on with a flick.

But then as fast we pull the plug
And turn off just as quick.

Our feelings give us power
We feel the way we choose.

So be careful not to think too much
Or you might blow...

The Switch-blade

Her past had begun to fade.
She really wanted it to; somehow.
Then the memories came back like a sharp switch-blade.

First was her father- who never stayed.
Who would walk her down the aisle now?
Her past had begun to fade.

After came a guy- whom she became afraid.
What...

The devil done put a new face
on an old sales technique
It's brash, it's bold
It's tricky sweet
But it tastes sour, this maggot treat
He swapped the fresh for the spoiled meat
Had to bait the trap good,
hide the kill switch under the hood
Alternative facts is the new money...

My husband and I had a good laugh!

The switch flicks 
 - and in that moment everything changes. 
The flicking switch 
rearranges everything; 

what was important is suddenly 
unimportant.  Priorities re-prioritised. 
Problems of great magnitude 
minimised by the flicking of that switch. 

The world is magnified and 
suddenly a tiny usually...

Doing an Irish Jig***

(To the music of The Bothy Band)
          ———         ———
So early in the morning,
If you looked, you
Couldn’t tell that I
Was really awake,
With my mind mixing
Through an...
