Premium MemberAfraid of Finn

Why is this little guy sleeping again?
I asked several people including his twin.
If you let him sleep, it will be a win-win.
If you don’t, you’ll have to answer to Finn.

Who is Finn? I asked his cousin and twin.
They gave me weird looks and a simple grin.
Just wake him up if you dare, said his twin.
But

Premium MemberFinn Chose Wisely

Hank built the loveliest quirkiest cottage for his wife, Finn.
She had specific ideas, and incorporated each one in.
Everyone who saw it wanted one for themselves and asked.
But Finn said “no, this was a labor of love that Hank amassed.
No one else is getting a quirky cottage like mine, it’s one of a kind.”
We all loved

Premium MemberI Am Grateful For Brother Finn

November 11th, 1938. winter, Sweden
neighbor's pond water is not frozen yet
bucket spilled drops are chilly
grandma Sven's crocheted mittens are not warm enough
younger brother Finn tells me to hurry

family waits for these precious drops of water
cannot fire up cast iron cook stove without stew juice
Chester, our broken down farm pony waits patiently
sky spells out snowstorm
I am

Premium MemberOld Finn

She was a woman who had a little hair on her chin.
She was older, robust, called simply Old Finn.
It did not make sense that they called her this at nineteen.
Still, she was the wisest one in the local tavern, usually seen.

If we had a question about our drink or our food
We could always ask Old

Premium MemberFinn and Freda

Finn and Freda’s Christmas wishes were known only to each other.
Trusted protective older sister, and Finn, her impish little brother. 
Helpful hints were solicited by parents for many determined days.
Important questions asked in a variety of creatively subtle ways.
Neither child would violate the trusted confidentiality of the other.
Treasured trait that is strong fifty years later

Premium MemberI Don'T Give a Rat's Tail

This is the tale of a soul reaching out to others,

		  but receiving a cold shoulder wherever she goes.

							           Words and phrases

								are misconstrued,

							meanings attached

				which cloud the issues

			which she wishes

		           to address.

Premium MemberHorman T Finn New Coworker

He was late every single day.
Spoke badly of his fellow man.
Kept asking them about his pay.
Lied and cheated, Horman T. Finn.
A good first day, new job? No way.

Premium MemberFinn and Fiona

He thought that he had lost all his marbles on the crossing

The autumn tides had been huge and the currents strong


Mostly the aquamarine ones off track and abandoned

A bit like blue smarties excluded from the shiny packets

Forbidden colorants had lost their way into his life


Must have put them into one of the Nivea tins he

Premium MemberFinn-A-Gain

Finn was in some searing pain
as he went to see the Doc
Good thing, it wasn't very far
a short walk 'round the block

As Finn walked in, He managed a grin
But his voice was week and shaken
The Doc said "Please sit down right here,
For some test you may be taken"

Finn explained he was in pain
from his head,

What Stout Is About



Me, Finn and McGee
We went to the pub the see
This new fancy Stout
They've been talkin' about
I ordered, and we were served three

Now when I looked down
Me mouth made a frown
For a fly was afloat in me beer
So I tossed the drink out
And I gave out a shout
I'll be wanting a fresh one

Premium MemberFinn Mcgee and Me Part3

MacJock looked uptight

When we said "That's not right,

We're not paying one pence you see" 

Den Finn swung and missed

With his powerful fist

And it landed on the jaw of McGee

MacJock grabbed a bottle

Intending to throttle

The closest poor sod in his way

And this caused a ruckus

McGee was so luckless

It certainly wasn't his day 

But when Macjock hit

Premium MemberFinn Me and Mcgee Part Two

We were all laughing

And it seem quite baffling

For reasons no one was sure

Why'd we carried on

From dusk until dawn

As we all wound up,  on da floor



Now MacJock lost his smile

And He all of the while

Kept a tab on all of us lads

And I t'ought I felt ill

When he presented the bill

Dat's when I knew
