Premium Membermy best friend Joe

my best friend knows my stories, has my back, laughs with me
He and I share two dogs, they are our babies, Maxie and Maddy
We are silly enough to call ourselves their mommy and daddy
Been together for fifty-seven years, my best friend and me

My best friend misses me when I am gone, which is a rarity.

Premium MemberFrom The Workship Collection Joe My Belvoed Beau

My parents did not know  

About  Joe 

My beloved beau  

And what the maturing character did  

Making him a heroic paternal twit   

One day with spring in the air  

Did not have a care

My beloved beau

Feeling the tightness to

No Ego Joe Show


On every outing…no touting or fostering of pouty louty shouty postering…

No flouting of the definition of classical ebb and flow rendition…

Yet boundaries scouting…Rooty sedition routing the opposition…

Echo the past…poetic…the ship’s mast and fillip for the cast..

Prophetic.. to and fro athletic ascetic aesthetic …traditions bestow and glow…

No 20/20 generic…why old school is still and always will

Premium MemberA Perfect Moment, Created By Joe And Mystic

Never had I heard a flutter so clear! 
nor more distinct than the settle of midnight wings; 
                    Soft gray wings spreading, fanning  
coming to gentle fold,  
soon to follow, a nightingale's song,

Joe lisa

Joe lisa said, she wanted to forgive
 and forget her pain.
  
  I couldn't let her live,
 she had to pay the price for trying.

She was living on the edge,
she never knew the floor was caving in.

You get what you give,
when every road is a past mistake.

They will never let you live, 
when

Stimulation

Hot coffee
black coffee
really has the means
when I sup but half a cup
to make me feel
quite full of beans
only one requirement tho'
no decaf if you please
and altho' born in Kenya
where the coffee grows
why it's called
'a cup of Joe'
I'm sure I do not know
but
hot coffee
black coffee
is the best ammo
when I do a mug or two
to give me

Premium MemberMemorial Day And Joe D 2025

Today my thoughts are on Master Sergeant Joe D.
my brother who was four years younger than me.

Growing up Brother Joe was always the battler,
he took no one’s “stuff” and was never a prattler.

At twenty one I entered and Brother Joe came soon,
to the Army’s ways Joe seemed to quickly attune.

He rose to Master Sergeant in

Premium MemberEskimo Joe and Nebraska Flo

Eskimo Joe took a liking to Nebraska Flo
His bro said, oh, no, not her, no, no, Joe!
When Joe was with Flo, they each had a glow
Bright as flashing bulbs at a Kansas light show

Love for each other continued to grow
Joe helped Flo plant, weed, garden, rake and hoe
Their romance was fast, it was never slow
Flo

Joe Don Baker

He was born in Groesbeck, Texas and his name was Joe Don Baker.
Sadly, after living for nearly nine decades, he needed an undertaker.
He attended North Texas State College on a sports scholarship.
He starred in "The Living Daylights", "Cape Fear" and "Joysticks".
When I say that he was a very talented man, it's not a joke.
He died

Filler'er-Up Joe

Joe works the gas station,
they still do full serve,
tops you off with a big grin,
if you wait your turn.
Chats with all the tourists,
shows them where to go,
that’s why everyone in town
calls him Fill’er-up Joe.

Fill’er-up Joe,
whoa, whoa, whoa,
Fill’er-up Joe,
don’t go slow,
folks need gas,
don’t you know,
they’ll all come back
for another go.

Works the bar for night shifts,
only one

whose hairstyle's a wonky Afro
to the barber Joe went
Who repaired his head dent
Joe returned bald headed like Moe!
