Premium Member Jackie - Feb 20

And just when I thought life was turning gray,
A beam of sunshine cleaving clouds asunder 
Strolls into my sight and I must wonder,
Who is this that I meet this moody day?

That spotlight aura bends gravity around her,
I’m attracted, drawn in by her mystique.
And following her hypnotic physique,
I try to speak—but stutter, then flounder.

She’s tall, dark-haired, she’s beautiful as hell,
Her sharp gaze is like a spear-tip piercing
My helpless heart, her honey smile traversing
The valley from cheek to cheek, and now I fall,

Transfixed by her mystic gait. I think it’s true…
Oh hush, I’m crushing on somebody new!

Premium Member Antimony Foolishness

Antimony Foolishness
Age 51 is often when one’s unable,
To buy the status quo, it’s old and needs mending.
New sports car, how youthful!  Refuting the label,
Of premature old age, gray hair pending.
Girl friends need to be added to the stable,
Young women, their company lending,
Immortal aura when sharing their bar table.
What invokes “against aloneness”, or “befriending”?
You’ll find a word “antimonos” in Greek fable.
The element Antimony, #51, is alloy tending,
By emulating its properties, “Romeo” is enabled.
By experimenting with the valence one’s sending,
Reactions occur, some of which may be stable,
But it’s hard to tell if another is bonding or pretending,
Especially, to induce attraction, one increases spending.
Remember to study and use the Periodic Table,
It prolongs youth, the illusion of vitality never ending.

Premium Member Letter from a Wishful Lover - Feb 22

To let my wanton gaze go wandering
And graze giddily your saintly silhouette,
With wonder watching you and pondering 
What wild pensées through my fancy pirouette;

To glimpse a glimmer gleaming from your gloss,
A sparkle shining gaily on your smile,
To steal the lipstick from your lips, to toss
Your weight my way, a soirée worth your while;

To feel a frisson flitter through your skin,
With luster shivering between our senses,
And see your face flush scarlet, our shade of sin, 
All this I long for and lust, in secret glances;

So with my pen I wink at you, pining 
For your sweet permission. And now signing,

On the 4th Day of Feb

For several years 
her incredible talent
I looked upon 
with awe
As gradually 
across the sea
we felt a bond 
both her and me
We felt a true affinity
As if somehow
we’d met before
Over the years
with laughter and tears
Good friends 
we had become
I knew from her writing
when she was in pain
I sent virtual hugs
again and again
Across many oceans
went love to and fro
Us two had not met
Us two had not spoken
and yet
when lately my soul felt so low
Nowhere was there solace
Nowhere for to go
But my soul sis she felt it
My soul sis did know
And today was the day
On the 4th day of Feb
We picked up our phones
We were speaking instead
Arriving together
in each other’s home
To hear her sweet voice
how it lifted me so
Like she was nearby 
A tear fell from my eye
As now we feel closer
than ever before
Who knows what comes next
~~~~
Who’s a knocking at my door?

"Book Worms"   Posted 1 Feb 2021

i'm reading a book about anti-gravity      I can't put it down

that bio of Led Zeppelin's guitarist      is a real Page turner

don't miss this: "Dummies For Dummies"    by Charlie McCarthy and Lamb Chop

i'll admit there is a time and place for books      in my hand and right now

in one college course we read books about candy      the class was Choc Lit

today I got hit on the head by a book      I have my shelf to blame

"But Weight, There's More"   Posted 8 Feb 2021

for some of us during COVID      overeating is a weigh of life

when i feel plump i tell myself      i'm not overweight, i'm undertall

those who sell books on dieting      are living off the fat of the land

darwin's theory of sumo wrestling      the survival of the fattest

during lockdown, i'm on the seafood diet      i see food, i eat it

i saw my doctor and asked him what kind of shape i'm in      he said "pear"

"Groucho Marx Edition"   Posted 15 Feb 2021

if i said you had a gorgeous body      would you hold it against me?

i would never belong to a club     that would have me as a member

be open minded      but not so open minded that your brains fall out

i never forget a face      but in your case, i'll make an exception

i have had a perfectly wonderful evening      but this wasn't it

those are my principles and if you don't like them, well,       I have others

All humor attributed to the inimitable Groucho Marx


"Occupational Hazards"   Posted 22 Feb 2021

my dentist's motto      be true to your teeth or they will be false to you

bakers trade recipes with each other      on a knead to know basis

I called a budget exterminator     he came with a flyswatter

the butcher backed into the meat grinder      and got behind in his work

a back- and neck-straightener in Egypt is called      a Cairo practer

don't call me a plumber      I am a "broker in new and used water"

Premium Member Testament - Feb 21

If unexpectedly I were to die, 
then this at least is here for all to see -
something of mine, a collection of what was I;
to survive the flesh, what could beat poetry?

Hubris begs me "Don't leave this world unknown!"
In secret I agree, but as for pride,
it tugs my sleeve and beckons with a groan,
"Are you worthy of such a haughty stride?" 

Thus, I compromise, only my best work 
will here be shown. The rest I’ll bring along,
gravebound for that eternal gloomy murk
beyond the mortal, to the ghastly throng. 

Alas, the end is nigh, the poem closes,
I only ask my tomb be strewn with roses.

Lifes not always what it should be, but its always what YOU make it.
So be carefull how YOU give it cause that's how YOU'LL have to take it.

You can waste alot of time with pointless argument
or you can spend it wisely with freinds in merryment

You may have only one more moment in this life, 
so do you realy want to spend it in arguement and striff?

would you want to be remembered as hatefull resentfull and mean
or would rather be known as one filled with love and glee?

when things get on your nerves ask youself these things. 
Dose it realy matter, will it realy change anything?

These questions will help guide you and help you choose your battles.
Then when striffe confronts you your emotions wont be so rattled.
