Premium Member Silliness Revisited


An army of mites reside in our lashes
With mouths and tiny claws
Along the road to human evolution
This was surely a major flaw

Astronauts strangely can't burp in space
What useless dribble is that
Felines can have over one hundred kittens
Now that's one pooped out cat

Some atheists put up Christmas trees
An identity crisis for sure
A cow can poop up to four tons a year
That's sure a big batch of manure

A woman once had sixty-nine children
Talk about barefoot and pregnant
With a dirty big bunch of kiddies like that
She could hold her own beauty pageant

Nose prints are used to identify dogs
Imagine if they used those for humans
Especially during the influenza season... yuk!
There'd be snot all over the policeman

The salary of Toto in “The Wizard Of Oz”
Was a hundred twenty dollars a week
That's a hundred and twenty dollars more than me
Since retiring, my new job is sleep

The tallest people in the world are the Dutch
Must duck underneath the windmills
While kissing, most tilt their head to the right
But there's some who rub noses still

WOMEN

Women has long evolved
From being in the kitchen 
Barefoot and pregnant and
Catering to everyone else’s
Needs except her on
Women wants more from life
Then, just giving birth and
Being a housewife and parent
When majority of the time
They’re the ones raising the kids plus
Most, work outside the home
Come home help with homework, cooking
Cleaning, washing clothes and
Also having to attend to their
Husbands are boyfriend’s constant needs
Some are physically and mentally abused
Like she doesn’t have enough
On her plate already, to some
It’s like being in prison, when
Does her duties end, when she goes
To bed but now most women
Woke-up and has finally had enough 
They’re taking control of their own lives
Getting good high paying jobs
And also making better decisions

Premium Member Flowers Beneath My Feet

Flowers beneath my feet 
Happy clouds above my head
Barefoot and pregnant me
By emerald emotions I’m lead 

Walking into motherhood
Like a deer caught in headlights 
Feeling optimistic and good
Despite first time jitters fright

Will I be enough as babe blooms
Can I do motherhood right
Baby in my blessed womb
I’m excited to give you life

I worry about the world here
That it may not be so safe
But God doesn’t give me fear 
Whenever I kneel and pray

I feel your lovely little limbs
As you swim in my tummy
Looking forward to your whims
And making faces so funny

Growing you I grow with you
In spirit in every delightful way 
I love you as big as the sky blue
Excited to hold you one day

As I walk in the grass so green
I look forward to your arrival 
I will give you love in entirety 
You are my heart legacy tribal

Premium Member A New Woman

Barefoot and pregnant,
Scrubbing pots and pans;
Supper's on the table,
I must submit to man!

No formal education,
My place is in the house;
Silent, without emotion,
So loyal to my spouse!

The laundry's neat and tidy,
The kids are off to school;
Here I go to the market,
Never will I break your rules!

Well, marmalade and poppycock,
Have I got news for you;
The 18th century's over,
I'm not your crawling fool!

Barefoot and pregnant?
It's only because I can;
If you want your supper,
Get up and lend a hand!

I have an education,
I'm free to leave the house;
Emotions conquer silence,
I'm a woman, not a mouse! 

Laundry's in the hamper,
The kids are off to school;
Come go with me to the market,
Only games are played by rules!

A new girl has risen,
With force and contemplation;
Someday she'll run for president,
Make way for a brand new nation!
