Premium Member I was Delivering Triple Meat Pizzas to the Fat Lady

I was delivering triple meat pizzas to the fat lady, during intermission.
The death happened before I arrived; you can check the cameras.
I wish I had seen something, so I could help you in your investigation.

Some of the singers are whispering about people they suspect.
Line sneaked in here, and was acting odd, I have heard this twice.
Her cousin Lin was seen hiding in a closet in the food court by Hank.

No, of course, I have no direct knowledge. I was not here.
Here is a list of the places I delivered pizza to in the last hour.
With the recipient’s phone numbers. These should clear me.

I saw Steven and Carol tiptoeing away from the orange Julius stand.
He was holding a broken bat; unsure if that will help but it might.
I have two more pizzas t deliver, and they are still hot.
Can I please go?

Deliverance

There certainly is no reason
For you to be afraid
I've done this many, many times
And always made the grade
I'm talking about delivering sinners
Bringing them back
Back from a sinful life
When they are redeemed
Their smiles are big and eyes are bright

Premium Member Delivering the Candy

Delivering the candy gumdrops and such
Throwing out chocolate to the rabbit hutch
With the help of the red-eyed Amazon frog
We roll out a caramel and nut covered log.

We are followed up and down the avenue.
I want a pink life saver! One says, how about you?
We are eager to sell our wares and do very well.
In hamster village where the sweet teeth dwell.


Premium Member Delivering a Pickle

“It’s a pickle, Puss,” her husband proposes.
“Is it sweet?” she probes.
“It’s a dill, Darling. Just what the doctor ordered.”
The doctor’s face, like vinegar. The nurse didn’t care
for pickles at all. She thought the pickle was a prop.
“No,” the doctor said, “It is a proper pickle and delicious,
though I’ve not tried it.” The nurse just stared
at the newest addition to the pickling jar. It’s junior size,
a miniature snack, at best. It won’t get any bigger.
“Get me a Gherkin!” the doctor yells, “Stat!”
“That’s not a pickle!” yells the wife,
“That’s not a craving. It’s a baby cucumber.”
“Well, I’ll be pickled!” the doctor laughs.
“What a quack!” whispers the husband to his wife.
To the nurse, “Get my wife a snack.”
The nurse brings in the prized pickle and the wife snatches
the giant jolly green, “Now, this will do quite nicely.”
And the couple lived happily ever after, unencumbered,
having the whole enchilada, well the prickly pickle, dear.

Loving Is Delivering the Heart

Amor is, deliver the heart
deliver the heart is the act
plus divine that the human being
draw near to God...!

Premium Member All Blessings Closed Delivering Forgiveness Wroth-

All the ways of man so imperfect for he sins;
Blessed are those whom turn around themselves now they win;
Closed hearts now opened up, now repented, now righteous wroth;
Delivering forgiveness amongst themselves sought;

Deliberately Delivering Designed Deities

Twenty-three metres. An elephant leap. Vast leg spasms and sporadic duties to a tiled polished floor. Fire formatting finishing frames. And a pyrolysis of a purple strand of hair in a sinkhole waging war with a little flea. Never let it be said that a dynamic IP address will come from work as adjectives are not noted for complacency and judgement is formed from ordered shelves of peas. Lining up on the many shelves. In tins. Exact. Numbered. 00100 or 100900.000 is no name. It is no honour. It is a code. That is no way to treat and grow a core. Essences remain in a cosmically fired whirl. And goblin spinsters whirl backwards in moonlit flames. Flamenco feet then. Cha cha cha. How charismatic and charming. Radioactive beans. Hahahaha firing papayas' is fun. Hahahaha left angled triangular prisms. Deliberation z

The Job of Delivering Phone Books

The office was a creeper van
My mates were old and youthed
Worn out by life, cantankerous
Tattooed more than toothed

We placed the books in plastic socks
With frozen hands and feet
And tossed them on the icy stoops 
Way up and down the street

By end of day my bones would ache
Raw shoulder from the strap
A walking corpse with empty head
I yearned to take a nap

It was not long before I knew
Don’t take me for a snob
The yellow pages weren’t my thing
Though thankfully, a job

Delivering

striking a match
one after another---
wife in labor

Delivering My Love To You Miss Ceizar

delivering my love to you miss ceizar 





oh for each day my heart crys 
oh for each day i feel lost with out you 

each day my ceizar until the 1st February 2011 when touch down 

i can hold you

i can love you 
i can dance with you 
i can laugh with you 
i can cry with you 

most of all i can be with you 

dreams can and do come true for me and you my angel of the light 

each tree that turns in the wind of change of the sessions 

all the colors of the rainbow for let love show 

we will never fight just hold each other every night 

days will come 
days will go but the trees of love will show the new opening to our hearts 
of love for each other 

as i sit cold and alone writing this ever so sweet love poem to you my ceizar 

i feel lost but happy your with me 

 where ever i go i will be holding you so tight for the rest of my life 


your sunshine loves his angel of the light my dear ceizar

Delivering Nature

Creatures of nature
Nature’s creations of life
Deliver ingeniously
Call of the crow slow
Disappearing in a mist
Reappearing once again
Whipple wills whistle
Loud to soft they continue
Near but far they speak sharply
Wind flowing constant
Every direction then
Lazily departing up
Raindrops heartedly
Drift silently until stopped
Creating wondrous quick sounds
Bees flying so low
Flutter erratically
Creating sizzling humming
