Remarkable



                That sickly little ginger's eye is open again!
Oh she's loving her new sister in crime!
Look at them on the pedestal taking on all comers!

Shouldn't have been in the zone and you wouldn't 
have gotten bit on the ass!
Oh now it's on, whoever is king of the mountain 
is master of all they survey!

Frenzy and pandemonium at the call of dinner bell 
is part of the ritual, aids in digestion!

I stole it fair and square, besides, I thought you 
were giving it to me, no it's mine now, 
step back, fool., you left it!
I will buy some time with this burger 
under the couch while you compose yourself 
and deal with it.

Ear wiggle on their backs getting pampered 
and holding baba with all four paws time! 
That one is not too big for a bottle, 
every kitty deserves a baba!

Corn kitty has such grace, such style, 
buttered up chest fur and look to the side 
chew finishing and dive back into the corn. 
She is actually using the paws as corncob holders, t
urning the corn for a fresh row!

Michael Jackson kitty is back, he is actually 
watching beat it and doing the moves!

Singing kitty licks his/her lips to come in in harmony, what a good kitty, so beautiful!

Aww every kitty deserves a Japanese girl 
to spoil it and tuck it in, give it a kiss goodnight!
Jackpot!


Premium Member Fair and Square Dancing Patter Sayings

Humorous Patter Sayings

Bow to your partner now let's begin
Lift your skirts and kick his shin 

Hold it tight and jump and cuss
Don't worry you can't offend us

Get her back gents, catch her quick
Snap her bra lickadee split!

Ain't she red now but comon let's dance
If you never now’s your chance

Got two left feet so you can't walk straight
That's OK cause you can promenade 

Promenade up and promenade down
Your the purdiest girl in the whole durn town

Slap your knee and holler an’ wail
Bend on down and shake your tail

Tail, tail,  pretty little tail
If you pull it I won't tell

I won't tell no sir yes ma'am
Do-si-do, do it all again.

Palindromes

One of our wildest, most memorable family sagas
involved my reckless brother, a racecar, a warm
spring day, and a non-adventurer, me. I warned, “Pop
said stay home today and mow.”  “Sometimes Pa’s a sap”!
he scoffed. “When I race, I always win top spot—safely,” 
he boasted. I wondered about the stats on car racing 
and wrecks? I strongly suspected kayak racing was safer, 
but I got in! He practically deified his souped-up coup 
with a near-prayer: "Race fast, safe car!" When we raced his 
rivals, my terror level was 12--on a scale of 10. 
Was it a cat I saw almost lose one of its nine lives 
as every tenet of sanity was abandoned?
Later, he bragged, “Now I won fair and square, Brother.
Name now one man who’s better. Stop shaking! You’re fine!”
I said, “Oh, I am? Refer to the huge wet spot on my seat!”

Ramblings of An Old Woman

Ramblings of an Old Woman

I’ve lost my hat, its completely gone
It’s on your head, you put it on
I’ve got one glove on my right hand
T’other’s in the fridge as right as rain
It’s stifling in here and your coat is on
I’m late for work and I need to run
No work today, it’s time for rest
Since twenty years, your job has ceased
Did you put the dinner on for Bert
I’ll get the iron to straighten his shirt
He passed away, don’t you recall
Please take care not to trip and fall
You’re my lovely little girl, dear Sarah
Your daughter’s not here, I’m just your carer
You’re just like her. She’s missed so much 
Try not to cry, and I’m very touched
My clothes are damp, they need to be changed
And your nightie’s on under all that garb
I’m even forgetting how to talk
As well as my ability to walk
I want to help and make life better
Your specs are in the dish for the butter
I’ll put the kettle on for a cuppa
And do something for your supper
Make sure to put water in the pot
I’ve broken so many when I’ve forgot
The smell of gas is no longer there
The controls are immobile fair and square
Your safety secure for the moment
But I won’t get better, you must know that
I remember before as clear as a bell
But life in the present is just a shell
I love to hear your tales of the past
A dialogue of stories unsurpassed
This living book for me to recall
A piece of history with which to enthrall

Premium Member Your Choice For President

Your Choice for President
( a suggested method for democrats this next voting season)
By Franklin Price
6/3/2019

Who is your choice for president
Of all who chose to run?
To vote for them as “Idol”
Would be “American” for fun

When the final ones have entered
And debating fills the air
To cast some votes at evening's end
Would be something we could dare

Because there are so many
Divide them into groups of five,
By a drawing, fair and square,
To see how long they will survive

Ten votes, for each method sent,
Spread them out or all for one,
Must cast your votes, after they speak,
And before the rising sun

After the compilation
Has been totaled and is through,
The bottom three are outta there
Must find something else to do

The top two of each round move on
The rest of them are goats
They're then put out to pasture
Due to lack of cyber votes

The cycle then continues
Until only two are there
They move on to the primaries
To decide the one, if you still care

The winner meets the Elephant,
Who right now is Donald J.
Could be another opponent, then,
If the Asses have their way.

Premium Member Lemons and Life

Of all the songs
You seem to be
The tuneless one,
Less subtlety.

God's orchestra
Has dealt a hand—
More toneless rasp
Than golden strand.

I wonder if
You long to be
A star
In morning's reverie.

Do tears well up?
Perhaps that's why
You paddle more
Than flit and fly.

And yet…
I see you
Standing proud—
Such confidence
In every crowd.

You waddle round,
For pictures pose—
Such character
Without a nose.

You dress with style,
All brown and green.
There's pride in how
You peck and preen.

You're grounded,
Yet you float and glide.
No treetop nest—
You strut with pride.

So maybe I
Prejudged your tone—
Less violin,
More slide trombone.

In that, the panoply
Of life
Requires such confidence
Amid the strife.

To show us humans
Not to compare—
Just be yourselves,
Be fair and square.

And when life gives you
Orange sauce,
Puff out your chest…
Just stay on course.

The Short Burst of Elation Winning At Online Solitaire

One need not be David Copperfield,
nor a card shark/sharp, scrutinizing
random display codified
computer algorithm doth yield.

The chance to "win"
may appear tubby zero
analogous finding a diamond
in the rough, even
with help of
a heartfelt superhero

nonetheless toil away, asper
setting suitable spade work,
and cock sombrero
just so to avoid,
the virtual sun
shining in eyes, and affect

a fin guard hand sum
swagger that Cicero,
would be fain to boast
whereat sportsman/
woman ship touted
from one coast

to another for playing
fair and square
as with a ghost,
but essentially nobody,
but yourself dost host,
which one person team,

(thou self) essentially most
ideal match, when testing layout
random shuffle computer
program did post,
and no matter experiencing
cerebral neurons sizzling
like fifty shades plus

of gray matter roast
ting like chestnuts 
on an open fire 
envision accolades huzzahs,
and special toast

ye give yourself,
no matter stiff odds
stacked against thee,
and feel a bit whooshy
washy outsmarting the

game coder despite yar tushy
feeling comfortably numb,
with tingling sensation,
no matter squishy
tissue being pinched with

all out effort of most pushy
fan (again your sole self),
who succeeds as best
groupie getting mushy
timidly asking yourself

for an autograph,
and lastly taking a selfie
posing incognito with a
note tory us whig  
outlandishly bushy.

Premium Member More Than Flowers On Your Birthday

This year, my darling love, you’ll receive more than flowers
Jewelry, candy, candles, gifts, kisses and chocolate bars
You will also get your AARP letter and your Medicare card
It’s vital that you take good care of yourself going forward.

Since you’re now sixty-five years old, you should feel blessed
Lucky, privileged and chosen. Please, please never get depressed
Age is always a good number, as long as you’re very healthy
And funny. The Almighty God is now watching over you regularly.

Eat well, drink more water, take your medications and vitamins daily
You’re now a senior, that’s a major step forward and a serious promotion
Since you’re retired, take a walk once a while. And that’s not being lazy.

You’ve worked all your life and have earned fair and square your pension
Your grandchildren and family will come to visit and spend time with you
I wish you a Landmark Birthday. Dear love, a blissful life is awaiting you.

P.S. This poem is dedicated to the sweet friend of my heart and soul.

The Robyn Schall Experience

It’s wonderful and rare to laugh
Or smile for two hours straight.
It happens when you get to see
A comic who’s first-rate.

Last night we joined the audience
At New York’s famed Town Hall,
Amid the crowd of fervent fans
Who follow Robyn Schall.

Her comedy is special
And to everyone appeals,
As the funny stories of her life
She jokingly reveals.

By interacting with the crowd,
All thrilled to thus engage,
She extends the warmest welcome,
Calling some up to the stage.

With a few well-chosen videos
Security* provides,
We are treated to an inner self
That Robyn never hides.

For full disclosure, Robyn is
The daughter of dear friends,
Yet seeing her perform
My fair and square self recommends.

We all need laughter as the world
Gets grimmer every day.
“The Robyn Schall Experience”
Makes all that go away.

*Security is what Robyn calls her brother
Richie, who helps with her shows.

Premium Member The Square On the Hypotenuse

gift from father beyond cemetery,
bound red book named Euclid's geometry,
father was head teacher of known repute,
but the son's reading skills were less astute.

wrapped in fine velvet it was in dad's room,
they thought "a clear sign from him from the  tomb".
church minister has spoken of the red book,
how it shone a light to life's path he took.

They opened with reverence tried to read,
with words and figures they couldn't succeed,
with great effort they read a page a day,
interpreted the 'holy book' their own way.

Sunday they read about the right angle,
about squares, rhomboids and the rectangles,
it was clear god had a pattern to life,
book be secret between him and his wife.

Each evening they gathered by the fireplace,
read the book with devotion, faith and grace,
they walked in a straight line on their walks,
and they were fair and square in all their talks.

They learned to live among good circles,
prospered reading their little miracle,
they slept in peace with their new found wisdom,
that book was sure a gift from God's kingdom.
