Premium Member Going the Limit



Scientists are expending time and energy
to invent a flushless water toilet.
But why stop there? Why not go the limit
by eliminating the need to go at all?
Or would the paper industry
take “tissue” with that possibility?

Premium Member The Sky is the Limit

Greetings friend!  Have you heard
of that inquisitive bird?
Could he forever fly
upwards into the sky?
He sure made quite a fuss -
was the sky limitless?
He found otherwise instead
when he bumped his head.

A Prayer For Life

Life is a flame on trembling thread, 
A whisper held by breath and light, 
Too oft ignored, too lightly said, 
Yet blazing fierce through day and night. 

We walk on glass with heavy feet, 
Unknowing what we crush below —
A moment's joy, a heartbeat sweet, 
A soul we'll never get to know. 

The morning dew, the sparrow's flight,
The laughter shared beneath a tree —
There are the gems of sacred rite,
Not trinkets tossed so carelessly.

A child's first cry, a final sigh,
The silence that a loss can bring,
All speak in tongues that make hearts cry
And teach us why each life must sing.

Have you not wept for love once lost,
Or knelt when hope was all you had?
Then know how high the living cost,
And feel the weight of every bad.

Yet still we rush, we turn away,
Forget the gift in every face —
When all the stars beg us to stay
In reverence for this fragile grace.

So let us hold with open hands
Each breath, each soul, each fleeting chance,
And see in all the shifting sands 
The miracle within the dance.

Worship the now, the sacred beat
Of pulsing blood and rising sun.
For life is short and oh-so-sweet —
Too rare to waste, too swift to shun.


THE FAST LANE

"Take it to the limit" as i
Have a "peaceful easy feeling"
I will be Already gone"
When I leave your "Lyin eyes"
Drinking a " Tequilla Sunrise"
"After the Thrill is gone"
Then "Take it Easy"
Sending the "Best of my Love"
While I still Live "Life in the Fast Lane".

A Tribute to The Eagles.

Fate At Its Limit

My ear
to the asphalt
My nose
in the wind

My mind
on tomorrow
Escaping
my sins

The road bends
before me
It twists
and it turns

Where truth
waits forbidden
And love stays
unearned

The voices
grow faint
In this gale
to escape

In front
and behind me
Both early
and late

As the mountain
implores me
Still calling
my name

With fate
at its limit
And death
— here to claim

(Dreamsleep: April, 2025)

Premium Member Limit Those Portions


     Don’t drink this
       Never eat that
     No ‘naked carbs’ now
       or you’ll get fat

     Too much sugar
        too much grease
     From fries and pizza
        you’d better cease

      Limit those portions
         Dessert, not a nibble
      Else like pudding or jello
         you won’t walk, you’ll wriggle

      Well I’ve had it, you hear
         I’m off my diet at last
      ‘Cos if I eat any less
         I might as well fast

Limit

• I'm a sucker for the thrills
• But even I'm at my limit
• That event gave me the worst chills
• My sanity is depletingbit by bit

Premium Member Life

There's so much more to life/
Than wasting it/
On drugs, alcohol and crime/
Which steals your life away/
Things can get out of hand real fast/
Spur of the moment/
Can cost you your life/
Life is too short to fight/
If you care about life/
Take the time/
To think about things/
Before being stupid/
Life is powerful/
Anything is possible/
Life is the limit/
Make something of it/
Enjoy your life/
Don't live in the guilts of sin/

Premium Member The sky is the limit

Reaching for your dreams 
living life to the fullest 
achieving all goals

EFFORT

Effort is important in whatever you do
Knowing where to make an effort makes
All difference by consistent focus on
The result and things that's effective
Creating way for greater opportunities


When you thought you've seen it all
You've seen nothing until you've toured
The world meet with different people 
with different cultures, attitude etc 
Only then you'll know it is what it is, 
isn't what it is until you dive in deeper 


Never limit your mind by thinking or acting
From what they told you, until you've 
Seek, know, practice, earn, live.

Premium Member City Limit Lights

In the city's limits at dark,
All the lights were in a glow
From corner to corner stood 
The brightness shimmered its shows.

It is something to view at night,
If you haven't been to the city before
Put it on your bucket list,
And go on vacation in New York,
Oh, don't resist!

The hustle and bustle that goes on,
Those street players performing
Whatever their art, craft, or music
They'll be doing some ameliorating,
Be sure they'll do it!

You'll hear the saxophones, 
And the brass horns to
Those series of strings bring them 
Blues players up from Blackwood Gorge.
The Mardi Gra is the city that lives.

Oh, those blues are playing,
Its echoes are from corner to corner
Those brass cymbals are swaying 
Like the slippery, shambling water 
On a tin roof when it's raining.

Premium Member Exceeding Credulity Limit

Oh, what a lovely web we dost weave
When first we practice to deceive.
What, on our next try, we conceive 
Is too much B.S. to believe.

Premium Member Sky's the Limit

What a beautiful sky we saw last night
I'm sure you will agree
Pastel colors so blazing bright
As far as the eye could see
But if you take the prettiest sunset
That you ever saw
And times it by 10,000
Still your beauty's even more

What Is Our Limit?

The sky is not the limit
The universe is not the limit
The solar system is not the limit
Then where is our limit?

You have no limits
You can go beyond the stars and the moon
Beyond the seas and the lands
You cannot be stopped unless you want to be
Because you are your only limit

Don't be as foolish as a lion tied with a piece of thread that believes he can go nowhere
Shallow lies indeed 
You can go as far as you deem fit to
But only if you deem it fit

Go beyond the clouds 
Ride on the stars
Walk on the moon
Race on the sun 
You are unstoppable
