As years pass by
Growing up fast year after year,
Shine the pearls of my eyes,
But for funny face in mirror,
Smile comes at a price.
Watching squirrels hopp and pass by,
While endless anxious wait,
Running after him to ask why,
Now stick syncs with my gait,
Swinging trees from my window seen,
Breeze that brings his essence,
As time flies, memories umpteen,
Trick me on his presence,
Drizzling drops to the soul that soothe,
And make hearts go crazy,
Sizzling weather in gala mood,
I keep sitting lazy,
Moonlit nights and morning dewdrops,
Ah those silent crushes,
While pulse occasionally drops,
Now I have hot flushes,
Growing up fast year after year,
Shine the pearls of my eyes,
But for funny face in mirror,
Smile comes at a price.

For contest "Which of the four would you choose" by Sara
Inspired by Edna's poem and Picture 3
Catfish hashed halibutt steaks bloodied red rare...
Nothin' more to eat-I really don't care or give a
dam. No-no-no more mistakes, Sir Sam i am
Don't give a dam flim flam.Hidey Howe and away
we must flee and a'go-go.Paint huffin' kids are
dumb-asses at best...They could'nt take a test
without failin' or pass.Kids now'a days are spoiled
to the centered core...Their rear ends should be
spanked till tender and sore. Green, orange, pink
or blue over length spiked mohawks is what these
attention starved brats of today wear...The parents
should show them they really care, Not have
complete strangers constantly stare.
What is so neat 'bout wearinf rings in eyebrows
or a nose? This only makes them resemble
a mexico's bulls.Whats so wrong with bein'
the norm? Why look strange and ugly like on
this planet you shouldda never been born?
Hippoty hopp, hippoty hopp...Who can be
the worst looking slob?
