Premium MemberMy Heart Writes

The day you left this world
I held you tightly….begged you not to leave
Begged you to come back

Living life without you became a blur 
I remember driving my car sobbing ,banging the passenger seat
Screaming “Where are you , over and over”
You always sat there

Pain and sorrow consumed me 
It took me seven years before l could look at a photo of you
Talk about you without crying or having to walk away

As the years past l eventually could laugh about the funny times
Your quirky cheeky nature and your hilarious antics
I finally could celebrate the uniqueness, joy and entirety of you

My  beloved, extraordinary, sweet mum
I miss you …

Premium MemberThe Super Positioning Meaning Of Life

Poised-
Now It's Poisoned
Now Nothing...

Meaningless Trash.

My Poem Was Started
With A Laugh
But Something Else
Too.

I Forgot.
That's Funny.

I'm Glad It
Was... And I
Think I ...

Don't You Think
The Emptiness
You're Focusing
On Fulfilling...

Laughs Better
Than You Can
Possibly Remember?

Premium MemberHardened My Heart

Hardened my Heart

I tried to be soft hearted
warm, funny and kind
but it never ever worked
for this old heart of mine

So I hardened up my heart
learned to be more tough
knowing I was never ever
going to be enough

Love I never found
it never came around
I was used and abused
so I stood my ground

I gave up on the life
I thought was for me
I hardened my heart
and it felt more free

‘You get what you give’
and I gave a lot!
a saying not true
so now I’m not soft

Love passed me by
dealt a raw hand
A loveless life
not what I planned.

in this funny house 
smiles reflect by a clear pool 
white gowns run the maze 
extracting caries for cash
drilling down to build up crowns

Premium MemberPonder

When pondering life, it is sometimes harder
to see the beauty and joy, than it is the pain
and grief because pain is bulky and dark
but I do my best to focus on the light and joyful
moments both when they happen and in looking
back upon my life, yesterday I laughed out loud
when I had a memory of something my youngest
son did when he was about 6, he was a riot
and memories of him are often funny
Which is what I choose to ponder.  Laughter 
and joy is welcome here to be pondered and
enjoyed while I still have life to live.


Premium MemberSatisfied

That Isn’t 
 A Very
  Satisfying
   End.

We Forget
  How A
    Punch-line
      Works.

You Had
  To Rush...
    All Very
     Obligatory.

Lucky You.
   It'll Tickle
     Your Funny
        Bone!

Endlessness.

No Credits.

Stop laughing and help me.
You just wait till I get you.
It's not at all funny.

Premium MemberSleepless Nights

Sleepless Nights, I have trouble at night and don't sleep very well. The doctor gave me, funny colored little pills. Life gave me, counting sheep one by one. The bible gave me, counting my blessings one by one. WOW!!! counting blessings really works.

Premium MemberHARD KNOCKS-

Hard knocks, a child runs fall on the porch into the door

A Hard knock on the door, it's the police
A Hard knock on the I've been lock out
A healthy play outside, seek a d hide
A playing hard child, running wild full of fun, play and water
A hard knock on the door, cause he's got to potty

Premium MemberBorderline Opinion

When Borderline
Characteristics 
Become So
Acceptable,
Even Normal...

The Borderline
Naturally Expands
Itself To Suit!

There You Are
Funny Again!
Hilarious!

It's An Infinite
Expanse, With
No Borders,
Unless You
Think So.

Funny.
Borderline!

Premium MemberModeration

Sometimes Moderation
Must Appear As Extreme
When All Else Around
Has Reached It's Own
Relative Extreme...

That’s So Funny!

Who Knows The Center
Of Endlessness!

Back Me Up.

Premium MemberVariations on a theme

Some people’s lives roll easy
They never care to know
It comes naturally like breathing
The days just come and go
Most people’s lives meet issues
Too large to solve them nicely
They reconsider their views
Drink too much wine unwisely  
But I have no advice to share
Sitting here with a silly grin
I imagine my love is still there
Where she has always been
This has nothing to do with reality
But imagination’s a friend
It cares a bit of my sanity 
In a way I find funny and sad
Some people’s lives flow easy
There aren’t too many of those
Born wealthy, they weren’t too busy 
Hence not to their credit it goes
It’s a gift of fate, I believe 
You are given a life to spend
And the time and a place you receive
Are most possibly, heaven-sent

Premium MemberValentino’s Past Life

He meowed once, lost his jersey “r,”
“La-guad-ee-ah,” says; so far
from normal and his, “house shoes.”
It’s “slippers,” past life breakthroughs.
The bizarre O language of love, thus far.

Premium MemberI Gave Up Years Ago

I gave up years ago
I just never quit.
Y’know, as in stopped
Being who I am.
I had an early revelation
That not everyone would like me
When I realized that I didn’t like everybody.

Thus, I endeavored to solve the dilemma
By just being me with all of them
It worked, well….a little anyway
As some who didn’t like me
Began to like me
That forever “equal and opposite” rule
Evened things out.

I believe I am a funny guy
Alas, not all agree with this assessment 
Some say that I go too far
Others hope I never return

As I said “I gave up years ago”
But I never quit.
Y’know…blowing bubbles in my chocolate milk
Licking my ice cream bowl
Building things with my mashed potatoes
Splashing in rainy day puddles

Premium MemberThe Give-Ups of Life

Anxiousness cause a breakout in hiccups,
When sentences sound like dainty teacups,
I cough them out, like troopers,
Catch audience jaws, droopers,
Hard look made all of them, only shut up.
