Premium MemberIf I Had a Magic Wand

If I had a magic wand I would make sure we would have the same skin color
It would be rainbow, but we could diversify it in these ways.
We could choose paisley, plaid, polka dotted, striped or heart skin.
Everyone’s hair would be white, we could dye it any color at will.
Including rainbow of course.

In December we would celebrate our neighbors, learning their customs.
Trying not to steal them, even when some of them would be fun to steal.
We would share foods from all of our cultures, especially cookies and fudges.
We would dance in the streets, and agree to disagree happily about music.
We would have a group hug.

If I had a magic wand I would give people a glimpse of their true self.
So they would be receptive to other people’s customs and habits.
Not merely tolerating each other’s eccentricities but appreciating them.
Because they would be living their soul dream,
and they would want others to live as their true selves also.
I would gladly do this for the world, if I had a magic wand.

Premium MemberPairing Procedure

Paint coat gloss of stigmatised strategy
Ink print format dishonourable dastardly
Rewriting total emotional reliance on romantic target solo
Mistakes made eradicate match develops purely personal 


Necessary structure supports test criteria
Shifted not by storm of hormonal hysteria
Flattery, female following foresee men fearful, fatigued
Indolent inconsistency implores males imbibe, intrigued

Hearts of Gold

People grow up,
     people transform...
     Thoughts diversify,
     acquire novel wills,
     other desires ...
     But the heart does not modifies ...
     It's the same...
     If the soul is virtuous ...!

Premium MemberI Paint the World With Color

My poet's heart paints words in colors,
Sees the world as topys-in and tipsy-out.
If the sky was always yellow and pink,
And the tree trunks were decorated with silver sequins,

Could the grass be red? The stars be purple? 
A milky white sky at night to show off these purple stars?
What of fruits? Could we love blue bananas and orange apples?
Could we fathom eating something that looked new?

How poetic can we lull our sensitivities into tolerating?
What would happen if we woke up and tomorrow was pink 
And Red and yellow and orange and there was no blue at all
Until we stumbled upon a banana on our way to the coffee?

What then? Could we deal? Would our houses be laughing
Or would there be stony silence, anger, rage about the changes?
How flexible is your mind? How ready to diversify are you?
My poet's heart is smiling in the love of this new idea.

A Topsy-in and Tipsy-out, making my heart smile,
My soul dance, and showing me who my friends are,
And how many family members will have to be dropped
After I leave my parents' home for good, and for worse.

Lone Wolf

A lone wolf rising in ashes of ancient writings planting her crop. Forged in blood, salty sweat, and ink some say related to iron ore rock. Some tried modeling this wolf but her keen sense kept a dreaded clock. A world can only hold one mold. Tick, Tock, Tick, Tock

The Equilibrium of Our Love

Deal, feel, heal, reel, spill, swill, thrill and wheel love on your page
Contain, detain and restrain your love rage
To glean, screen and win love on your love stage  

If you want for sure my love to win
Your arms and mine in an unbroken embrace to entwine
As to my heart’s content you grow into my queen

Forever to cherish, comfort, console, compensate, delight, love and hold
In a love rocket, socket and sprocket so bold
That no force on earth can withhold whether climes and times grow hot or cold

In circumstances and instances you and I enjoy
To diversify, magnify, modify, mollify, multiply, satisfy and typify our bondless joy 
As a serious matter, not a ploy or a sentimental toy

When in earnestness we embark on our love ride
To fly away to cloud nine as we flawlessly glide
With boundless bliss as you assent to becoming my betrothed bride.

Neither Encode Nor Decode a Discord

Wars in my mind
Rain strains and pains of a cruel kind
In circumstances I suspect
Tear promised prospects in every respect.

Wars in my heart
Tear my trust system apart
When blues bathe my trust
In seas and rivers of russet rust in a crimson crust.

Wars in my society
Signify sorrow sown by loss of piety
Bathed in wintry waters
Diffused and contused in my quivering quarters.

Wars in my morals
Defy etiquette stuck on mortals
Whose desires diversify and crucify moral codes
Society neither encodes nor decodes.

Premium MemberSci-Fi

Once long ago there was a clear blue sky
Where roamed free bird and butterfly
That’s when came the idea to super citify
And to pollution creators deify
All put their brain power to diversify

Silenced anyone who dared go awry
Soon mile high skyscrapers did gratify
And every square inch did occupy
Way too many to quantify
So it was nature they did damnify

Now skies are filled with traffic jams that horrify
Greenish rain waters that relentlessly acidify
Mountain-high billboard ads that do electrify
An extravagance of gadgets enough to stupefy
Implanted technology meant to dehumanify

In light of superfluity, let me just plainly oversimplify
Scientists need to eat a big piece of humble pie
There’s just no way to justify
Why colorful sunsets went by the by
And why no one remembers the aroma of apple pie

Kamama Adanvdo

Kamama Adanvdo 

Some like to howl with the wolves
In the cool moonlight
Feeling their ancient connection
What a glorious sight!

Some like to soar with the eagles
Above the mountain peaks
Closer to Grandfather 
And hear what his heart speaks.

Some like to swim in the waters
Like the salmon and rainbow trout
Gaining strength against life's currents
For them, is what it's all about

Some like to perch like the owl
From the elder trees
And roost in peaceful solitude
To truly feel at ease.

Some like to be as the jaguar
They move about with stealth and grace
As a restless, free spirit
They travel from place to place.

Some like to be as the spring frog
Singing up rain for cleansing
Content to remain exactly where they are
Each day is their new beginning.

Some prefer to be the turtle
Slow and steady is their pace
They understand life's evolving circle
Is not a hurried, rat race.

I, however, like to hover and float
With hummingbird and butterfly
Lightly touching with gentle wings
And many colors to diversify.

But Seriously

Welcome to our country, my foreign friend.
We're awful glad to have you living here.
Your freedoms now will seem without an end.
If you have suggetions, we'd love to hear.

We've got critics, so we have grown thick skin,
And we know to take the bad with the good.
We've learned to grow by seeing where we've been,
And seeing that our faults are understood.

They said,"Diversify", and so we did -
And found ourselves a complicated bag.
So you can do whatever lifts your lid -
But seriously, just don't burn my flag!

Circumferences

A spotty duck met a lunatic on a roller coaster heading south. Southbound the a9 glittered in intention whilst a ship sailed on the very busy intersection. How absolutely marvellous said the tall bouncy fish wiggling his fins in a range rover. It is to be said the dormancy of a fungal pesticide can rise up very very long and minutes are then hours and seconds are days but at least Radcliffe won against doverton. How available is a shrew? To a dinner table it arrives. Non plussed and divedents neither diversify or multiply in a space coat. Such is the drive to the towers. All aboard then whoosh. Silky swooning spotted seagulls singing shapes. And a large bowl of grain. Good. Pickle that then. Caterpillar calling 1 2 3 4 1 2 3 4 . Great. And now have a coffee. Z. Culminations q
