Family men
You may know — she screamed a lot, But you may not know that he was still holding her along. They say, and they repeat, Calling him the villain in stories incomplete. Yes, he may seem inhuman and vile, But not every man walks the same trial. Remember — he is a...

Mr Potato
Mr. Potato a.k.a., Spud Murphy 'I'll have another cigarette,' as John Lennon (1940 – 1980) writ, 'And curse Sir Walter Raleigh (1552 – 1618) he was such a stupid git.' However, (altho' to his cost) it may have gone to his head (which, unluckily, later he lost), Raleigh introduced the noble potato (the blight of Ireland) into Britain — ca. 1586, and what's more tobacco it did eclipse, so yes indeed, his...

Premium Member Father's Day
What is a father? One might ask. He is a species that helps the female of that species to produce life of an offspring. And, after that, is supportive in the development of the offspring. This would be a formal definition. However, where the development of the offspring to the female becomes present, the supportive...

In another life, I'd be your mother
To the world you are just a person But to me you are the world You are the rarest of the rare To the point no one can compare Every hug healing a piece of me you didn't break Everytime you smile I know that no matter what I go through I'll always have you You are my heart And nothing...

THE BEAUTY CALLED HIM BEAST
[Verse 1] They built their fences high and wide, White porches where their secrets hide. Laughed in rooms where he’d never belong, Called him Beast when he walked too strong. No shoes, no name, just dirt and fire, Scars from hands and hired liars. He kept his voice down, learned to crawl— But they still prayed he’d never stand tall. [Verse 2] She came in...

Memorial Day Spangled white stars Flutter on a field of blue In quiet glens and on hills That that remember In taps The spirits resting Beneath stone markers The battle cries and hero’s lives Their days, now without end, Etched in granite Their sacrifice Protects Freedom’s flowing wellspring As meadows of red poppies Call us to recall And silently salute this eternal rollcall Sounding an eternal reveille To rise beyond...

Heroes
Real heroes aren’t fearless, They’re brave enough to face their fears, And the real ones aren’t emotionless, They are the ones who shed tears. Real heroes don’t have crowds around them, They are usually the most ignored, And they’re the ones who've been heartbroken the most, Not the ones that are the most adored. Real heroes aren’t the ones that move the mountains, They’re...
