Back from Cruise without a Bruse

rain ran over curb
had to take a special herb
so did not disturb

Been back to normal again,
Write more poems have been,
Even if they are not enjoyed;
You have become annoyed.

With you have brought rain,
Which on lawn would remain
Dead leaves color changed;
We have become estranged.

What we had been wishing,
We would rather go fishing;
Which are no longer there;
We will be in deep despair.

When we did arise from bed
We went to church instead;
Instead of a drastic disaster;
We met our Lord and Master.

What minister did determine,
We should hear his sermon;
Was always clear and loud,
We prayed while being proud.

My friend and wife are back 
from a cruise. Wrote this poem
for them.

Premium Member Archery

Two friends go camping
In the wilderness
They bring a target board
With bows and arrows

The target is up
They all get ready
One at a time wait
For each of their turns

For a perfect aim
One friend aimed- then let go
The arrow did not go far
Only a short distence

The other friend tried 
The best he could
Only he got bruised
When the arrow flew

He ended up with a bruse
That took awhile to heal
It did not matter to him
He enjoyed the sport
