Lemonade

When life leaves you lemons
deserved or not
some sunny summer's day
neither fret nor sweat
if citrus is all you've got
to show for your lot
to keep the blues at bay
be creative pull out all stops
keep calm stay cool
either squish or get off the pot
think of a drink
(old fruit)
and you're made in the shade
easy peasy lemon squeezy
simply put... make

lime faerie and her cousin lucy lemon

Lithe lime faerie was a cousin to Lucy Lemon.
They were both young girls, only six or seven.
Flying in tandem, showing the garden their scents.
The were both lovely, most said heaven-sent.

Rolled into balls, it bounced fine
We did not like lemon, orange or lime

Lemon Meringue Pie

Classic lemon meringue pie:
fluffy, sweet and tart,
the thought of it makes me sigh!
With a light pastry
it's just so tasty...

squeezed like a lemon

And being told of my financial state,
I grit my teeth poor as a rotting board,
I feel like a lemon squeezed, I dont feel great ,
Please dont sink my ship while I am aboard.;

And news like this,my guts squirt out lemon juice,
I am being squeezed dry -feel I want to die ,
Financially speaking I need a

Samuel Langhorne Clemens

Samuel Langhorne Clemens
had a wit as acidic as a lemon
to many pompous people he was a pain
especially with his pen name Mark Twain

The Lemon Tree

It was a big backyard,
big enough to hold
the imagination of a boy -
trees to climb, 
sheds to explore,
a large lawn to swing a bat 
or kick a ball
and in a quiet corner, 
a sanctuary for prayer
when my grandmother, 
bent over and groaning 
with angina, had me 
go there and ask God 
for help. 

There were

Phenomenon or mere lemon 3

He thinks he’s a phenomenon,
An orange, when he’s mere lemon. 
The more he gets the squeeze,
The more proves an ass he’s,
A kind that higher goes,
The more tends to expose
Like a monkey on tree
Whose rear we all can see,
One who lacks sense not so common.

Cranberry Confessions

If I can be honest 
I must cranberry confess
I really don’t want it
No longer need your sex

I don’t mean you 
Are invaluable to me
Just mean I don’t want 
All that huffing and puffing 

I giggle sometimes 
At myself for lemon lime
Is the taste of the sexless
And it is still good to eat
Between the sheets of

lemon-shine

The bright sunrise made the snow-covered Alp mountain-tips, an hour-away-by-car, glow like they were topped with lemon ice-cream. Was this evidence of magic?

Peter (my bf) and I are low atop the five story Hotel de la Paix, in Geneva, which seems like a small town - with only 10 slightly interesting things to see -

SMILE WITH A LEMON A’PEEL

SMILE WITH A LEMON A’PEEL 

When Life Gives You Lemons... 
As life sometimes will
No matter what you feel...
Turn that sour pucker into a "Jesus Smile" 
Smile with a lemon a'peel! (Appeal)

Bitter Lemon Woman

Bitter Lemon Woman

In sarcastic egos, you’ve cornered the market.
A self-important peasant, a show off bourgeoisie
Without compassion, a bitter lemon woman.

A twisted tongue, a controlling snake
A liar, a betrayer and a tortured soul
A pathetic vein of vanity runs through
Your engineered persona.

You Bitter Lemon Woman

Who’s the fairest of them all, mirror?
You’re as transparent, as Perspex.
A deceiver of

Sublime

Redolent spring air
aromatic breath of life
sublime lemon grove
