Hearty Meal

Hearty Meal

Stone Soup:
Quite A Feast!

But He Hovered
Hanging Over It
To Use It
As A Loo.

That's No
Blessed Angel!
Ruined A Good
Story.

A Hearty Dandelion

     In a sliver of
       a crack in
     the sidewalk
     up thrusts a hearty
       dandelion
  
     it asks for no quarter
     nor gives a
     hoot about 
       equality
       or democracy

     Watch it survive 
       ~ even thrive

            hearts wobbled       ^      felt sick   <

Love’s Hearty Plea

Love’s in the blue, the sky, the bird, the ray.
Xanthous flicker of  light - the brilliant sun.
And white, the vellum space - she spills her day.
Emerald gown, her dress; hair golden spun.

Across the tiresome sea, the divide’s great.
Reflective waves imagine softest curls.
Easygoing, flashy morning, this date.
The reds turn black and storm’s a beast of whorls.

Yet, he hangs on a crest of splintered wood.
Seaman’s invested in a hearty plea.
“Call me back home. You’ll find me all good.”
He sings “Siren of mine, I will find thee.”

It’s in his dreams, though waves do kick and bruise.
She dreams it too, that it’s his fate to lose.

The Colour of Red

The colour of red
Bright and flickering 
At one moment
Looks dangerous or bloody
At the other moment
Looks prosperous, enthusiastic or sincere
Different circumstances different interpretations
Like the world we are facing
Especially the political world
Always full of puzzles, paradoxes and mysteries
To be solved 
Throughout our lives

More Holding, Hearty Holawale Safiu

Fear not the beast of age, 
Now you are mature an adult. 
Thou shall hail from thy night cage;
Talking about concerns phobia consult, 
For in it, overflows river of blissful wage.  

Fear not the twist of tongue, 
Or the loyalty of those spying, 
To insult the efforts you dreadfully dung,  
With no intention than pretty sighing...  
Weighing heavily pregnancy so young. 

Fear not the twist of chance,  
Buried in mysterious harmless prank-
Of once opportunity lost; it lives in trance. 
Do you limit yourself to that, be frank? 
Resolve bugging other logics to glance! 

No revival cream cheese, 
Like groundnut oil will ever do. 
Neither do faults' wave flees, 
To never appear again in the blue. 
Fighting back, surely ills been sleaze. 

May all sickness mails hang. 
Network ye be unavailable! 
May your darling gang,  
Offers you scope advisable
And get drums loudly bang... 

Thou nature's fragrance so sweet, 
Submit happiness to his feet 
And forever to his grace,  
Bring enough fortune embrace... 
That gets enemies plans defeat. 

Happy birthday! 
Age off hell! 
Have your say;
State all well, 
Out shining MAY. 

Amen!

Hearty Blow

All living couples 
Got their roots in lovely hearts 
Watered by pure minds

Hearty Yumminess

As recollections are restored, clay breaks retouch. 

          A bare soul, a wrecked heart, sorrow, and despair

                   Tears will recuperate your inward love and mental wounds. 

    Our spirits are bolstered when... we love and care.

A Hearty Broth

A hearty bowl of chicken soup
  was set before the lad
at a delicate, tender age
  by his doting mom and dad

Into the thick broth
  the lad plunged his spoon
Hot steam rose up
  raced through the room

The lad inhaled
  his face turned bright
The soup was warmer
  than the light

Which filled the room
  as the lad he ate
the hearty broth
  that love creates

He Hearty Ha Ha

One time I was drinking whiskey
When the wife was feeling Frisky
But Frisky cut loose
The wife got a goose
Can't say no more cuz its risqué

Party Hearty

There was a Christmas party
The meal was very hearty
	With onions and cabbage
	Our colons it ravaged 	
Leaving us rather farty

A Hearty Aroma

A hearty soup's
     aroma
     wafts its way
     over the
     desolation, the
     barren tundra
     where bones
       shatter
       fingers crack
       toes burn

Party Hearty

When life's drudgery is pulling me down,
I love the atmosphere of a party.
And whether a nerd or the office clown
I like a jokester who parties hearty.

What's funnier than a drunken buddy
weaving from one brouhaha to the next?
And if fights break out and things get bloody,
at least it's not done under false pretext.

Partiers are a happy-go-lucky lot
who live in the now; they find themselves in.
And the crazy ones are eagerly sought;
for they're the zing that lets the fun begin.

Partiers are friends I want to be around;
when life's drudgery is pulling me down.

Hearty Treat

Despite pandemic, let’s have hearty treat
Sharing bounty of delicacies’ sweet
But wait, good food, we must pick
Since wellness is not a trick…
Thanking* the Lord for healthy veggie meat.

*Colossians 3:17 And whatsoever ye do in word or deed, do all in the name of the Lord Jesus, giving thanks to God and the Father by him.
