It won't pass
                                            eye of glass

                                             Licky-lick
                                            zingy twist

                                           Chef is called
                                             he balded

                                            Pretty soon
                                           orange moon

                                           Try your best
                                            fail the test

                                            Nasty soup
                                           doggie poop
                                    
                                            I am sad
                                          slightly MAD

                                          Walked away
                                          want to stay

                                         You did wrong
                                          I stay strong

                                           Feelings fly
                                           will not cry

                                           Expect less
                                          gives me rest

                                          Oh, so sweet
                                         ... me complete

A Big Mac

On the road in hungry mode, 
Golden arches call! 
Stomach immensely howling, 
“Big Mac” has attacked.
Hamburger and cheese 
Zingy sauce to please, 
Gulp it down!
Plump!

“The World’s Playground”

"Ring around the roses. Ring around the roses".

Jack the ripper, he slept with a whore, and became deadly ill 
Awhile his wife Jill became suicidal dependent on the Prozac pill 
Mother Goose lost all four of her children it was easy to ignore.
She was too busy being a **** star it was hardcore. 
One had his brains fried. One died from electric shock. 
One survived to an infant to be killed on the block
Last became involved in gambling, a financial debt he can’t pay
The mob sent the goose a bleeding red box saying happy birthday.
Welcome to our playground. The world is such a joy.   
Every girl and every boy is a playgirl or playboy.   
We have candy, video games, lollipop, and teens  
We have Drugs, sex, alcohol, slaves, and atm machines
By raising the right hand shouting upon the witness stand

This is zappy land, this is zippy land, this is the zingy land. 
Sparrow and Fly killed Cock Robin with a ball and chain 
In a black pond the fish devoured the bird’s brains
Old Grandma once had delicious pie the night when Crow Man came. 
She then had two children who took her life’s blame. 
Hansel became a business man who took people’s homes.
Baba Yaga pimped Gretel on the streets of Rome. 
Hansel lost his control. He cooked his old hag.
Gretel was cut opened killed by a douchbag.

“Girls and boys, come out to play,
The [stars] doth shine as bright as day;”
Leave your families, don’t be discreet,

“And come with your [fellows] into the street.”


Little children holding hands, "ring around the rosy".
Children dancing gleefully "with pockets full of posies".
Happily they burn the days away. "Ashes, ashes". 
Going through life, "we all fall down". 

Welcome to our playground. The world is such a joy. 
Every girl and every boy is a playgirl or playboy.
We have candy, video games, lollipop, and teens
We have Drugs, sex, alcohol, slaves and atm machines
This is happy land, this is happy land, this is happy land. 
Welcome to our playground. The world is such a joy. 
Every girl and every boy is a Playgirl or playboy.
We have candy, video games, lollipop, and teens
We have Drugs, sex, alcohol, slaves, and atm machines
This is happy land, this is happy land, this is happy land. 
This is the place to be. 

"Ashes. Ashes. We all fall down".

The Fragrance of Rain

I'm not sure what God sprayed
                                                   Smells like angel - scent
                                    While raindrops falling, an aroma detected
                                                 Light - fresh smell of earth
                                                   That captive my senses
                                    Emotions, desires, leading me everywhere
                                        Evokes memories of joy and laughter
                 
                                                 Feels like in a bed of roses
                              A "FLORAL SCENT", light, pleasant and feminine
                                                     Or in a green pasture
                                              Blends with leaves and herbs
                          A "NATURE - INSPIRED SCENT", relaxing and great
      
                                                      Am I in a deep sea?
                       Smells refreshing and zingy; an "AQUATIC SCENT" hit me
                        Think its "CITRUS SCENT", cut oranges and lemon tangy
                       
                                  Enchanting - elusive, an "ORIENTAL SCENT"
                                  Sensual, irresistible, warm and passionate
                        Something sweet as honey, my dear "VANILLA SCENT"

                                 Seems I'm dressed with perfumes all around
                                 Affordable, impressive and the cleanest of all
                            Now catching all the raindrops, I will not let it pass
                                       The fragrance of rain to sniff all day.

Premium Member A Pickle Party

All the Pickled produce gathered
At Branston Manor - if you please!
They entered via a staircase
Made of Jacob's Crackers and Cheese.

The Gherkin Girls and Chutney twins,
Who's names are Tom and Mango
Compete against the Beetroot Troupe
To make the taste buds Tango!

The Beetroot Troupe are not alone.
They have a wise old friend
Zingy Mr. Vinegar.
Always ready to defend. 

The Silverskins call upon
The Shallots acapella choir
To pack a punchy added flavour
In a pitch that can't go higher.

The sour Grapes sulk in the corner.
They apparently should not have come.
Only Pickles were invited.
It was not open to everyone.

The Eggs got pickled with too much drink.
They thought it would be fun
To gatecrash the party
Just to confuse everyone!

It was an event to be remembered.
But alas, though sad to say
The party ended abruptly.
For they were consumed that very day!

Butterflies

Tonight I thought about some people I met.
With the one, I even never really have met.
But they, all enlightened my life
With their rainbow thoughts,
Zingy personality and words of wisdom.
They are the ones
Can make my heart beat faster,
Can make me smile,
And surprised.
You, all will stay like precious butterflies
Before my eyes.

Flavored Manner

pizzazz:
a zingy term
that implies flamboyance,
zeal and some zoo like behavior.  
flair-up!

Premium Member Home Garden

With nowhere better to go, I nurture home.
Rows of sown seed need me 
to sing them to fruition
with the moisture of tender words,
coziness brushing buds 
with benevolent thrums.
Following intuition's petition,
pebble stones, thyme whiffs, skipping feet,
flower power spells, and blue bells' ring,
I'm welcomed to the scene: 
veggies competing in diversified strides,
flourishing fruit trees with wings it seems,
verdure upstretched to light's extensive dive,
joining birdsong chorus lifts, 
with fervent desire to thrive
from life to life like Eden's beginning.
The first ripe cherry flushes 
with sun's zingy red depths,
plush with juicy secrets beyond
comprehension's clutch.
I ingest this portion of wisdom
while studying God's living gifts,
with humble recognition,
so much is yet unknown.

 Hidden quote by: Jesse Jackson


As the daze lifts, dirge ogling at blurring.
Squalls can still be stifled by soft roving.
Heaven's pinions may rattle the birdcage.
If tame grip, end up spotting candor wing. 

Conveying of the most critical stage.
Toe-to-toe quicksand slogging on the rage
We aught stark faith in our dominant muse.
Shut eyelids bury the day's grin assuage.

We, a whiff of peace, must be shining wise.
Naught deems but that you go forward to rise.
In its purest awe, love with hope bestow.
Our scheme provides a zingy gap in size.

Grin never sink out, and not backward show.
Allow it to rise, by wings swell hefts grow.
Fear and division are ousting cross-glare.
Close fetch key vibrations to the shallow.

Chimes

My tongue flaunts a fur-trimmed coat
of smoldering, ginger-scented rhinestones,
bragging and boasting
about how fashionable it chooses to be
when a Chime ventures
into the dank, cavernous throne room.
Gilded lions guard the gate,
cowering upon beholding those decadent,
syrupy, muted Chimes.
Zingy, flashy, and so trendy.
Glowing like glowworms,
they make music in my mouth
with a percussion section of ginger gold
that spits sparks of regret.

Alleged anthrax-laden alligator arrives in afternoon
Beyond bright baboon baby bestows brilliance 
Chaste chimpanzees charge chagrined cheetahs 
Doped donkeys deliberate director’s dictate
Elongated eel exasperate enormous elephants
Fruit flies flit and flutter among fruity flowers
Gravely gross gibbons gripe greedily 
Hyenas and hippos are hungrily huffing 
Igneous information informs iconic islanders
Jubilant jellyfish jealous juxtapositions
Kipling’ s kangaroos kill kindler’s keepsakes
Lively llamas leaping and loving
Many mammals merrily marauding 
Nefarious Neverland needing new numbers
Often outsiders oversee overgrown owls 
Persnickety porcupines parading in pairs
Quintessential quails quickly quell Quakers
Respite reveals rushing rip-roaring rhinos
Stolen stags slide south showing secrecy
Tiptoe through trails, tricking tigers 
Understanding unicorns utilize umbrellas
Very vexing victims verify variety of vixens
Well-meaning walrus whips whippersnapper’s will
‘Xacting ‘Xrays ‘Xplore ‘Xpansive ‘Xports
Yoga yielding yaks yelp at yellow yarn
Zealous zebra zips in zingy zoo.

6th Place Contest Winner


Silver streaks of zingy songbirds 
and choral trills.

Orioles in Scarlet -
gorgeous carolers of
dawn canzonet with a sapphire score.

Rich viol spells of melodic melody
they engulf my twisted skysill
featuring lavender gold and
honeyed agate spring odes
silky lilac skylight accents.
