A small garden

I'm a small garden of the soul -
A place where we keep patience in tending roses...
thinking of each other,
trying to blossom like flowers.

Anh oi
I'm not a fickle wind
That blows whenever I want
or only when your heart desires...

Fruity Farm Holiday

 
contest : Alpha Rhymes 
sponsor : Joseph May
3.9.25
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~


APPLE BLOSSOMS CAUGHT DREAMY EYES 
fairy farm was ablaze with fruity trees
gentle breezes swayed laden branches
canaries sang, cows mooed, all at ease

FIGS, GRAPES, HACKBERRY, IMBE, JACKFRUIT 
with Turkish splash pool glimmering awaited
tiny tier temple newly whitewashed invited 
brass buddha bell and rose garden gated

KITES LAY MOTIONLESS

Happy man but no heart

Got a short fuse
Got a heart to abuse

With what you call romance
I refuse to dance the dance

Of trying to love someone
Who will always run

Away from me
Even if they

See me for who I am
A struggling man

With a hole in his chest
Looking like he's got nothing left

No heart and desires
Just burnt out fires

And a deep dark hole
Deep

It’s Life, It’s Time

It’s life
It has to go on
Until we are gone

It’s time
You can’t hold it back
You can’t move it forward

It’s life
You can’t predict the future
You can’t change the past

It’s time
You can’t make everything right
You can’t make everyone bright

But Truly
Things will settle down
When they will find the way on their own
Life happens
When you own your moments

Premium MemberShe Looked At Me

It is National Happy Cat Month (September). Please consider adoption.

Cat: An incomparable companion that smoothes the bumpy road.
She looked at me with somber eyes
enchanting with her wily guise. 
Hesitant love became her stance
as she wondered at her sole chance
by blinking lovely golden eyes.

Living life with abuse and lies
never knowing what love implies
cautiously observing askance,
	she looked

Happy 40th birthday

Keeto the apple of my eye,
Centre of attraction, smart yet shy,
The little diamond - handsome and naughty,
A new milestone- my baby prince turns 40!

Creeping into mom and my heart,
Always loved and admired though far apart,
Champion in golf, colorful in art,
Keeto! My little star is class apart!!

Full of empathy and very humble,
Smart and stunning, yet so

Premium MemberHappy 16th Birthday Bonnie


My Bonnie lass is sixteen now
Her birthday is today.
And for a husky that is old
I’ve heard our young vet say.

My dear old dog, we love her so
And glad that she’s still here.
Her routine every day is set
She’s trained us well each year.

A pup who loved to go for walks
I’d let her off the lead.
She’d run

Snackables

Would a snack-happy
happy snacker
with a snacky itch to scratch
be a happy snacker
if he snacked a happy snack
such as a happy cracker
or could there be a catch
as it was not enough
healthy happy snacky stuff
and he'd need something to munch
with a much more succulent crunch
a Grannie Smith or Golden Delic'
a happy snack-like pick
happily snackily
should really do the

Premium MemberMore Than A Soft Toy

As she lays tucked in her white crib,
she hugs her brown monkey.
Other animals fill her crib,
but she chooses the brown monkey.
Why one may ask?
even as a baby she has a choice to make.
As the years go by she wants her brown monkey,
for love and peace no other animal will do.
The years pass by as she

Premium MemberWhat People Call Me

Most all have known me, a few know me well.
Ask people about me, here’s what they’d tell.
Sometimes when happy or sad I appear.
Here’s who I am, these statements make it clear.

I may happen while you’re cheering out loud,
Your child is succeeding, and you’re so proud.
Or in a moment when there is no doubt,
Suddenly your joy

Walking and Breathing

I walk and breathe 
And breathe and walk. 
Listen to the sounds
Of children and chalk. 

I smile at the pictures
Drawn with great care
Pink and purple flowers
In pixies' sidewalk lair.

I smell at the rain
That surely soon falls 
And listen to the birds 
Singing their calls. 

The sun is warm, 
And thaws my old bones
Today it's welcome
