Premium MemberSuper Hero Heart Henrietta Heavens Helpful Hand

Super Hero Heart Henrietta Heaven’s Helpful Hand
Blew in swiftly, barely touching her feet on corn or land
We watched her flit here, there, under, over, around and through.
She got little accomplished but certainly entertained me and you.

IM STILL HERE

I'M STILL HERE

IT ALL STARTED WHEN I WAS 10 YEARS OLD
I WAS MOLESTEDFOR 5 YEARS FROM MY DAD
AND RAPED BY MY BROTHER
        BUT I"M STILL HERE

I HAVE BEEN BEATENWITH A TOW CHAIN
AND MY HOUSE WAS SET ON FIRE WITH ME IN IT

Premium Membernot helpful honey

My dog smells like sewer
He runs toward me like a freight train
Jumps into my recliner and lollygags all over me

Now we both smell like sewer
I coax him into the bathroom
He is stronger than I am

No way I am getting him into the tub
my husband is yelling not to let him stay in the house
help I

Global Ubiquity

 
From the vast eternal ether, as the whipping tips of a raging flame, I emanate from eternity as a frequency, continually upgrading in knowledge, growing in wisdom, elevating in consciousness, vibrating as a light source.
As agreed, I am thrust forth into a mountain like a blazing fire, subdued only by this vessel of blood

Premium MemberMerry Winter

You can tell it's finally winter,
the glaze of icy glitter
Darker mornings, sun late dawning
Freezing cold and bitter

Woollen hats, chunky scarfs
slippery and sliding paths
children's runny noses
Red lips and looking chapped

A festive time
Happy elves and Santa's sack
He sees if you've been good or bad
I know that for a fact

Christmas crackers, candy canes
Songs are played and party games
winter

The Helpful Man

He was a unique kind of man
Always thinking about others
Helping any way he could
Even if it left him with nothing
No one ever hurt around him
But when the time came
When he was left with nothing
Not one person was there to help
No one even offered him a penny
They just turned their backs
But he was still a happy

Premium MemberUnsolicited Advice

Unsolicited advice
against its storm I brace
Showing no fear or shame
as they get up in my face

In other words ...

They tell me to zig
when I'm zagging
"Hurry up man!"
when I'm lagging

"That's not the way
I'd do it!" they opine
"Better listen to me,
get to it!" every time

Hmm, if that's true
then I'll know
just what to do
when I am you!

More precisely

Premium MemberT Rex Is Helpful and Kind

T-rex with his stubby little hands opens cans for the raccoons.
They are in existence in dinosaur era, they come out with full moons.
He is helpful and kind, but many do not realize or know.
His lumbering body intimidates some, when he walks through the snow.

Yes, it is beginning to get colder, soon the ice age will

Its Not Helpful

It is not helpful to think, to ruminate
on things that cannot be re-thought.
The original is pounced upon
by piggy-back thinkers.
Charge and counter-charge,
nothing changes
thoughts engraved in stone remain.
When a brash mind questions,
rats nibble at ancient foundations.
Better to write poetry,
better to lie then bolster a false truth.
A poem can fabricate
love and hate and still be true.
It's not helpful

Premium MemberThe Lonely Lamp Pole

The lonely lamp pole 
Stand by the roadside
Day and night 
Watching 
Pedestrians too busy to look up 
Drivers too involved to admire 
The old lamp pole 
Just like an old mother 
Standing by the children's side 
Watching 
Too old to interfere 
Too old to be helpful 
And now 
The children have grown up 
Tall and
