Best Tip Poems

heal the one that is hurting

My saddened journey
no longer running
My thoughts tip toe 

Carefully painfully
feeling each step
So much to share

My heart is barren
nothing in or out
a void full of doubt

From the vinegar you gave
only the sweets...

Lonely dreams...
Childish whispers...
Tiptoed toed steps...
From the stones of miracles.
To arch and curve in heavenly grace,
for a reflection... unlike any other of these days.
To dance... and lift a cloud of gloom,
once cast on a sunless evening.
Curve and leap... and bring down the stars
and join them...in their...

Lucky left on Thursday
a stroke
Friday no tip tap in hallway
Saturday no tip tap in hallway

Sunday morning, we woke to tip tap in hallway
"Did you hear that?"
Jumped out of bed.
New dog had come into the doggy door.

Not Lucky, but another black dog,
needing a home.
It's too soon,...

For my friend, Bea, who makes me smile and is the brightest star in the bunch.



The tip of my pinky is just fine, thank you.

My bosom’s low.
My gait is slow.

I can’t scurry,
but what’s the hurry?

My foot gets sore
when it touches the floor.

My nose is runny.
I...

Do hope the other four are keeping in time Dorothy
Yes Sybil they are all looking exceptionally elegant
When are you going to tell them we have passed the audition.

There was a barber shop quartet,
 That went to the track to for a bet,
      Their singing exploded
   When their pockets got loaded,
 From a topical tip called, " Minuet "...

Dear parents, don't you agree
that you all quite regularly see
Your tiny pranksters shouting loud - 
Higher and shriller than they are allowed?

So here's the solution to end all your worries -
When your naughty little poppet stealthily scurries
To make blood-curdling, spine-tingling, uproarious noises,
Just scare them to...

If you can't afford a doctor, go to an airport.
You'll get a free x-ray and breast exam for sure,
and if you mention Al Qaeda nonchalantly,
you'll get yourself a free colonoscopy....

Never watch any comedies
while recovering from surgery
because you can laugh your stitches out literally
which will be not only painful but also very bloody.
This is one of those situations when laughter can be deadly,
as opposed to hightening one's spirits joyfully....

As a talisman around my neck, I wear a glass magnifier.
Now where ever and whenever there is sun, I can make myself a fire
and cook food I have scavenged to kill any harmful bacteria,
or boil water free of all parasites that can cause dysentery and...
