Premium MemberOur Family Legend Dale

One of the most influential and inspiration people I’ve ever known
Unexpectedly had his life stolen from him at 2:00 a.m as a
Random drunk driver struck him as he sat on a residential street’s curb.

Fated to die before reaching his full potential was
A young man almost finished with law school.
My remarkable red-haired stepbrother Dale was eleven

playful dolphins popped out of lake
frolicking like sixties Chip and Dale cartoons
Bringing a smile to my face
adding a new kind of joy to sundown at the lake

Premium MemberDear Dale, So Loved

Dear Dale, so loved were you
that even now, thirty-nine years later,
you live inside the dreams
of your siblings. I suppose this to be true
since I, at least, have had you in my dreams.

Dear Dale, you came to live with me and my sisters
when I was halfway through my childhood.
You with your freckles and reddish hair
and your

Premium MemberLoving Chip and Dale

Chip and Dale were favorite cartoons of my sister and me.
With so much ***** and happiness, joyful they could be. 
They ran around in chipmunk form and chittered away.
Making our cartoon fest much better every single Saturday.

Chip and Dale played tricks on other cartoon friends.
Their antics were silly and funny; without any mean split ends.
We

Premium MemberMy Entertaining Friend Dale

Why would a monkey be riding a blue whale?
I stare at my imaginative friend, Dale.
I don’t know, I say.  Perhaps it was a quail?
He laughs, and flips into my lap his junk mail.

I’m not kidding he says. It is no tale.
As a best friend, he entertains me without fail.
That monkey hopped in a turquoise

St Pattys Day Limerick  L. Milton Hankins

Twas in his cups, drinking bitter ale.
His name McGonahill, first name Kale.
Irish girl gave him wink
He sputtered came up pink
A big plotter, Miss Katie O’Dale.

She would make him a respectable sort.
His friend Collum laughed, gave a little snort.
She gave him the eye too
Super good Irish shrew
On Patty’s Day

There Was a Man Named Dale

There was a man named Dale who dressed himself in chain mail,
In the absence of fan mail,
Whilst checking for more mail,
To cover his big toe nail,
He stood on a rusty nail,
And got caught in some hail,
When a taxi he failed to hail,
His chain mail leaving a paper trail,
Which the police were able to trail,
Right up

Premium MemberDale Lives On

The year my mother wed his dad,
a red-haired boy would come to be
best role model I ever had.
Dale lives on in my memory.

Each day with Dale was so much fun.
He brought our family such glee,
not just to us - but everyone
Dale lives on in our memory.

Blessed was he with wisdom too -
with vision and integrity.

Premium MemberDale the Brave

My life flashed before my eyes as I sat in the driver’s seat
I clung to the wheel for dear life
my face was as white as a sheet

Would this brave man named Dale 
live to tell the tale? 
Had he written out a will 
Drafted Out in great detail ?

I was petrified you see
But he had

A sculptor whose work is really first class

Premium MemberFlorence Dale - Fv

Florence The Goat Lover – FV

She had a wicked laugh, witchlike
Bringing forth Gingerbread House Fright
She lived with goats
They walked through the house gladly
Front door was gone
She wore men’s clothing
Overalls, and she wore a black derby
Her gray hair stuck out in crazy ways

We were terrified of her
Florence, the Goat Lover gave us 
Wild stories about black
