Brides Worldwide
That slow and spectacular gait of a bride
Brimming as she is with nuptial pride
With grace and beauty each regal stride
as invitees whisper, 'here comes the bride'.

She for her big day so perfectly embellished
Her love-match said to be divinely predestined.

On their big day even the plain-faced,...

Poetry Soupers Worldwide
Friends: Poetry Soupers,
Brethren of literary troopers,

I pray God to do my best
to wish us all a Christmas blest,

And if our loves ideas and bents
are not the same,
Perhaps we can meditate on
from whence we came.

At least in that light be together,
As Birds of a poetic feather.

I...

Premium Member Hunger-A Major Worldwide Problem
Hunger is worldwide; I don't understand why
Trash cans are filled with untouched food
Starvation is real; why must another die?

We can feed the homeless from our food supply;
Or help food banks, it can brighten their mood,
Hunger is worldwide; I don't understand why.

Wasting food is a major...

Premium Member Worldwide Peace
woeful wanting world wages war,
wait, woodland wakens, wondrous wind instruments,
wafting whimsically,
wood nymphs waltz,
whooping cranes whish wherever,
woodpeckers woolgathering,
woebegone withers,
worldwide peace...

Prayer of a Midwife On Worldwide Candle Lighting Day
I woke up this morning
Something special on my mind
Today I must light a candle so that
Their Light May Always Shine.

I light it for the babies
That didn’t make this world this time
They died before or after birth, hope 
Their flickering light will always shine.

So many couples...

Premium Member The Flu That Flew Worldwide
We ponder what will be our fate
As Earth we over-populate.
More industry we generate
And agriculture propogate.
Many species we decimate
As Planet Earth we dominate.
Bigger cities we now create.
In high-rise blocks we concentrate.
Now pathogens grow at a rate
And fly worldwide to dissipate.
We ponder what will be our fate....

Worldwide Pollution
Worldwide Pollution 

 

In Nigeria, in Lagos, in lands far away 

The garbage pile’s growing more and more each new day. 

 

The US is known for throwing trash in the road 

The UK comes close with a big garbage load 

 

But lands that...

Premium Member Of the Worldwide Lie





They told me there is no jackalope.
I said, "your head is like a cantalope!"
Ignorance and fear, better than a cold beer?
Stupidity, like the virus!
Wuhan ….leave it behind us!

Worldwide
Worldwide is far bound with all,
Outspoken making the world to call,
Right ways and wrong are out to make,
Leaving each time zone at steak,
Dividing the signs into a loop,
When time is out the hour glasses hoop,
Inside and out makes it fold,
Dealing with people learning to hold,
Entitled...

Isolation
I am writing this as vivid as a candlelight dancing in the dark ~
Portraying shadows of my greatest regrets.
There’s a battle going on around the world ~
Even as the sunrise enters and shines inside these walls ~
And through the nights, stars frolicking like ladybugs dancing...

*** Poet’s Greetings ***

(Written for Victor Buhaglar)

Does the Malta shore pause its gurgling rush
Of roll-over waves to hush
In appreciation of your hand brushing its ending, foamed
Touch over the sand, which is the greeting
I’ve sent on to you, dear poet brother, as I do most every...

Premium Member Coronavirus Blues
Crazy COVID-19 has us all in a tizzy

Too much information making all of us dizzy

Most who’ve been exposed self-quarantine

Running out of toilet paper making us mean

“Social distancing” is the phrase du jour

Scientists scrambling now to find the cure

Hurry!


(Chorus)

COVID-19 apolitical

Proper testing so critical

Slow response hypocritical

Naysayers hypercritical

Division...
