Petit Fours Etiquette- The Soupbone Crooners
When asked what there names were
one responded quickly and spoke with a very heavy voice
saying his stage name was "Rink rasher"
and his partners was " Fresh Meat"
he shook my hand and began a conversation:
while his partner stood silent with a frown on his face.
I was try to bring him into the conversation asking questions often

The Invite
My husband had a invite
he told me just today
and he's going away for one night
and it's a dress-up 'play away'
He's really looking forward
to the 'play away' day
and not just straight-forward
as he dresses up to 'play'
Now a large crowd is going
but i'm too ill to go as well
and they're all 'playing' to pose
and your

An Invite isn't a Gesture to Change me
If I invite you into my home, please do not show up with the floor plan and Pinterest boards of your ideas to decorate it as you see fit.
I like the plants I have hung up and the rainbow catchers hung in the window. They bring in growth and sunshine.
And before you forget,

Come, I Invite You to Suckle
Sea, I stand upon your shore with the rising of the sun
as sanguine shades of dawn blend with an amber sky
Long before the overture of the human race has begun
I walk barefoot on the sand; to moonlight wave goodbye
When Ra lifts his heavy eyelids and wipes away the sleep
his light is softly reflected in

In the labyrinth of the evening, I invite you to lose ourselves in the scent of tea
In the labyrinth of the evening, I invite you to lose ourselves in the scent of tea.
Today, love, you are my queen, and I - your humble procession,
Here, a throne made of dreams' foam is laid out for you,
Come, step out from the dream and allow love to bloom into reality.
Let the tea dance with

The Mystery of Time When True Love Invite
The mystery of time when true love invite
The promise of full blooms response to the light
The way of an eagle soaring in flight
The joy of a blind man receiving his sight
The skill of a poet’s poem recite
The mystery of time when true love invite
The way that day turns into night
The romance a candle creates burning

Invite
You only came because you need,
It was never about us, it was never about me,
But in the wake of that need, it opened my eyes,
Because sometimes we don't realize our own needs in this life,
We reach out not knowing the outcome of who we invited to the table,
We had no idea that that person would

Why Did He Invite Her To the Movies
Midge the Mouse could tell that her date was not into her
He was busy slurping down all the butter off their popcorn
She wondered why did he invite me, the sneaky little cur.
Because my Uncle Zeke is the owner of Movie Galaxy in Big Horn?
They got a discount on the popcorn, he only had to pay

Absent Friend
Absent Friend
They dusted me down after twenty years.
Come to my birthday, have a few beers.
We missed you so much my dear friend.
Sorry about the invites we failed to send.
I was a best mate, sometimes a big sap.
Your finest cue, the liver and bacon rap.
Giggling about nothing entering a camp.
Stuck behind a wheelchair climbing a ramp.
The

Lets Invite Everybody
Do you want to play?
Oh, yes! Indeed!
Let’s dance and twirl and make loud steps.
Let’s invite the boy with the wheels.
Okay.
Let's invite the white girl who has freckles
Okay.
Let's invite the kid whose hair is beaded and braided.
Okay.
Let’s invite EVERYBODY!
Okay.
At six, they include everybody.
They invite everybody.
They love everybody.
Unless they have been taught differently.
These lucky children have not

Don’t invite squirrel hedgehog said in a persnickety way.
I have to, he’s my bestie especially on a windy day!
Hedgehog kept his mouth shut, but he was unhappy for sure.
He did not like squirrel’s tail, it was fluffy, and it had its own grr.
I am afraid of the tail, hedgehog finally admitted to me.

Invite Bliss To Get Its Might
Happiness can be surely had
If our attitude is wisely changed
Happiness is not a fixed place
It is coming while traveling
A cup of coffee is a fine feast
The smell of flower is a treat
A baby's smile is a great scene
A kid running is a true wonder
The Temple bell when tolls
Soul is immersed in devotion
The leaves dancing due
