I've searched my 'puter from Adasaurus

     All the way through to Zapalasaurus

          But bless my dear old soul

CREATURE FROM THE PAST ?

[ Poem inspired by Contest : Ghost of Frankenstein : sponsored by Tom Woody ]


CREATURE FROM THE PAST ?

Elite scientists are the scariest humans
their minds think up stormy waters with acumen 
these they traverse with little concern 
for millions of quarters that could wisely 
be used with much more discern

dinosaurs, woolly mammals, dire wolves 
already

Premium MemberThe Dinosaurs At Webb Dock


Early morning and the gantry cranes
at Webb Dock look like long necked
dinosaurs lining up to drink from the river - 
and the sky is aglow as it might have been
when tinged by the first hint of that asteroid 
slamming into Yucatan on the other side
of the world 66 million years ago.

This is 2025 and no

Premium Memberone species derived from dinosaurs

scientists announce that one species of today derived from dinosaurs
I am trying to guess which one
snakes?
alligators?
crocodiles?
rhinos?
hippopotamuses?

the answer is birds.

If you have ever seen a crane with a giant wing span
you would fully understand this.
When it flies it looks like a pterodactyl.

Children's Poems IX

The Tapestry of Leaves
Michael R. Burch

Leaves unfold
as life is sold
or bartered, for a moment in the sun.

The interchange
of lives is strange:
what reason—life—when death leaves all undone?

O, earthly son
when rest is won
and wrested from this ground, then through my clay's

soft mortal soot
thrust forth your root
until your leaves embrace the sun's bright rays.


The Long Days Lengthening Into

Dinosaurs

In a sketch made doubly distinct
I have seen The Great Monster inked
By a lover of The Extinct, 
Who noticing my interest winked
Dinosaurs that killed on instinct:
The Alive soon dead before one blinked

Some hopes he'd via bringing them back?
Then, Lions would their actions slack!
God had quilted them for Lion;
Their bones had been complete iron

They'd been linked

Watching JJ Play with Dinosaurs 
David J Walker

The flying reptiles frighten me 
What if they come back
	What if they attack
What if a stolen egg escalates 
	Into another annihilation

The plying reptiles fascinate me 
What if feathers are lost
	What if we ignore the cost 
And act in fits of passion 

What if their leathered skin
Becomes stylish 
	Again

Premium MemberLiving In World of Dinosaurs

He does not notice the grimaces on his classmates' faces.
Or hear their deep sighs, or realize he is fixated on dinosaurs.
His discussions are one-sided, he does not need peers at all.
He does not know that his constant blathering is bothering them.
It is not what they want to hear over the teacher.

He lives in a world

Premium MemberWhen Dinosaurs Inhabited the Planet

When Dinosaurs Inhabited the Planet

   When dinosaurs roamed the earth
(T-Rexes, Triceratopses, Stegosauruses, and Brontosauruses)
Millions of years ago during the Mesozoic Era,
The land lushed green from the oxygen-enriched environment,
And the lakes and oceans hued blue teeming with life
(Plesiosaurs and Ichthyosaurs, fishes, amphibians, and crustaceans),
While Pterosaurs (Pterodactyls and Pteranodons) commanded the skies,
And lizards, arachnids, and

Maybe dinosaurs existed in the old days or maybe they did not 
an andrewsarchus,  was a large-snouted predator I am told, 
may I  be so bold to say, I never met one anyway, so I think not 

I heard of prehistoric pigs named Entelodons, perhaps its true 
perhaps they died  by climate

Distant Cousins
David J Walker

You may not remember 
the dinosaurs 

Roaming our backyard
Jurassic park
Hiding in lilacs 

Crushing the petunias and 
Easting the tops off our trees

Mother, not pleased, 
was mad while
Dad was glad to not have to 
Mow the grass ever again

Brother was older and had to
Scoop the dinosaur poop 
Into a very big baggie 

Sister
