Laid Up
Laid up in bed but we really don’t mind,
it’s raining and a football game’s on;
Let’s make out slow in-between plays;
With a dollop of ice cream,
dip into my rhythm;
A moan not a howl;
Until the clock
hits zero,
release
waits……

LAID TOO REST
Permanent grave
Nestled under a maple Tree
My grave and me
Had a fulfilled life
Gave good advice
Went through numerous circumstances and situations
Received no appreciation
At peace
In Heaven at least
At ease
Don’t mourn nor cry
Don’t even try
This Soul is no more
I have been committed to the ground
Ashes to Ashes, Dust to Dust
Laid to rest
Forgotten Soul Forever

KOO' LAID
KOO' LAID
Oh boy, looks great!
You imagine the flavor,
The colorful look of fruity deliciousness
you only hope to savour.
But think before you drink,
for the drink that's made,
It may look delicious but is it fake Koo' laid?
The Koo' laid we all know so very well,
Not only looks good,
but has a deliciously fruity smell.
Unlike

People just like you when you are funny, laid back and open
Not when you were helping them with homework.
Not when you offered them a piece of the Sandwich of yours.
Not when you smiled and waved at them.
Did you really think they meant it real when they complimented you? They found your kindness cringe and made fun of you.
That day when you told them you are not

Dismissed! Battles laid down for a dissociative survivor
Thinking about us
I come undone
Looking back I don’t know
Whether we lost or won
Voices in my mind
That I just can’t translate
But I know
I’ll learn to appreciate
I’m not laying blame
I’m not keeping score
I just wish I could find
Who I was before
All was taken
And more was lost
A dissociative fugue
Cost us the lot
What am I supposed

Best Laid Plans
Robert Burns knew schemes.
Like all of us,
His vanity
Lent him an illusion
Of control.
How did his wisdom come?
Did his head fall beneath the trap?
The cat is away, time to play.
What's dearest to your heart?
A night in paradise?
A glass full of lies?
Maybe a vision of ladders
Climbing closer to your treasures.
Come now, come now,
Free will, will reveal the maze.
Starving

The First Time I Laid My Eyes On You
I'd never seen the sun shine so bright
And a sky so vibrant blue
The sweeping meadow green was so lush
Until the day I first laid my eyes on you
Creation suddenly burst into ultra technicolour I had never seen
Be so in awe of such a spectacular picturesque mountain view
Sensations sweep over me in such euphoric ecstasy
Until the

On corners of the moon I’ve laid out wishes, unrestrained letters
On corners of the moon I’ve laid out wishes, unrestrained letters,
Locked in the crypts of the sky, a murmur of nostalgia,
The nights are of ice, but hope carries the cold,
I wander through the universe, seeking you among stars and alien nebulas.
I cannot sleep, for you are my summer, and without you, time freezes over,
Snow lays

She That With a Sweet-Laid Kiss Captured My Heart
She That With A Sweet-Laid Kiss Captured My Heart
She a true angel yet forever incomplete
Yes, forever and a thousand years in a day
But her heaven rests completely between her sheets
Her love was abundant, sweet in every way
But in love's resplendent and blaze-cast flaming throes
She felt the intense burns of love's amazing heat
In her hotter flames

Figurative Paralysis Laid Waste Body Electric of Mine
Figurative paralysis laid waste body electric of mine
This is Spinal tap
bamboozling, binding, bleeding, bombing...
ripped from every dog eared
and book marked page
recounting latest ill fated fiasco,
now peppering my life and hard times
causing quite an ache – fiercely teasing
(the fire cat) curative panaceas
sans almond sunset, chamomile,
Osage Tea for the Tillerman.
I

She Laid There Peacefully
I watched her sleep ,
And almost dropped a tear
Because she laid there peacefully
And all i wanted to do was borrow her ear
I wanted to tell her things..these things
That haunt me even when I'm wide awake
But she laid there peacefully
When all i wanted was to tell her of all the traumas I've encountered.....
Still

It Was the Last Room, That She Laid In
It was the last room, that she laid in;
Warm to the touch, in that instant;
In within the blink of an eye;
she did flown, fled flied flown;
unto the bosom of Our Lord;
Room full of ceramics, porcelain;
Colored dry walled olden wood laminated floor;
laying down rested, blessed look like she was sleeping;
Like in a family reunion house full

He Laid Back and Let Her Lead
She came sauntering into the bedroom with that peacock look.
Not only is she sexy, but Queen Hafsa is an excellent cook.
Is my steak finished? King Sabir asked, salivating a bit.
Queen Hafsa gave him a dance that showed him her whit.
His brown eyes narrowed as he stared at her feathered tail.
Hey, he asked, did the peasants

There's No Better Love Than For Jesus Who Laid Down His Life-
What a wonderful gift ?
Such as an Amazing Love
There is no better love than Jesus
He gave His life HIS mercies Grace
Sufficient He gave HIS life
What can a mere man do for me,
even if he gave his life
~
My Jesus loves me unconditionally
He gave up His life
For His
