I'm heading home after five
humming to myself quietly;
I've missed the December' sunset by an hour,
Christmas lights sparkle, folks greet each other:
hear the joy in their voices!
Jesus will end their worries:
they will thrive, not strive!

Naughty boys...

THE COACH
by
JOHN M. ARRIBAS

 
Went to an alumni meeting last week
 Looking for solace, the outlook was bleak
We lost a game we should have won
A total disaster to all not just some
Cries of anguish torrents...

New Moon new, new tune
It’s a lovely afternoon
New broom sweeping the town
And spiritual cleansing is scattered all around
The wind is blowing lightly 
And the race is running politely
The crowd is out once more

One summer night his haul totalled nine
His spree ended in tears
Got an extra ten years

a donger and yarbles rampant 
upon a field of clover

donated by a few eggheads in exile

She wore her hair in braids instead of curls,
Bathing several times per day in the Jewish way,
Yet many scoffed and sniffed,
exclaiming she smelt like manure in hay,
Nelly used expensive...

At the half time stop

Competition is good; but not really, 
because sometimes it can get downright 
silly--like people betting on two homeless 
people fighting over food, betting 
on one, while the other gets booed. 

Like two countries fighting for...

Bob Dylan is great
And he is real mate

He started out like Woodie Guthrie
But only roughly

He told us the answer was in the wind
He was all so thin

He went electric and creative
It went hectic and stimulative

Learn not too late to halt the hate,
Bound to be ground in the dust of disgust
We're pierced and fierce, fulla rings and things
We're blued and tatooed and God is booed.

Crude dudes are misconstrued
with actions vulgar,vile...

Back and forth he broke like glass

Her curves so hot
Out on the spot
Asked her to...

I'd hike a mountain backwards,
Even if it were awkward.

Then tell all my friends on poetrysoup.

Even if I would never live to tell.

A festive Jewish holiday*
We celebrate today,
When children dress in costumes
And much merriment holds sway.

An evil man named Haman
Tried to have the Jews all killed.
The king, whose wife was Jewish,
Saw that deed was unfulfilled.

Since Haman wore...

Two skating sisters, one was brilliant
The other just middling and that was not good enough

A pair of skates made of gold, but with...

Why is that two people can tell the same joke,
Yet one will be booed off the stage 
And the other has the audience in stitches.

Can light up a room,
