Premium Member A Place of Goodbyes

A place of goodbyes is the earth
Each generation we let go
Heaven_ place of hellos and mirth

Whitey went_ will there be rebirth
Or with animals only end though
A place of goodbyes is the earth

Sadness overwhelmed she had worth
Was good ratter now receiving gateau
Heaven_ place of hellos and mirth

While here on this earth, let me unearth
And expand on my good traits, let grow
A place of goodbyes is the earth

I'll leave_ take spiritual rebirth
Put on my countenance's warm glow
Heaven_ place of hellos and mirth

All will leave in flight that is dearth
Now new body on me bestow
A place of goodbyes is the earth
Heaven place of hellos and mirth

Premium Member To Hell With Reason

a jolly darling right angle went straight out of the lateral box

fed up with grinding a living on the periphery of pure reason

he thought back to his square roots and longed for a change


his strict Dad Monty Pythagoras had been rather level headed

had equated logic premises and conclusions with happiness

a refined man steeped in knowledge in search for great virtue


his Mom Pi however never lived up the promise of her name

strayed from her calculated path of predetermined precision

abandoned caution and boredom and soaked in a bubbly bath 


Archimedes my **** I can’t throw the baby out of the water

had a fling with Plato in his cave and settled for the kitchen

made the best strawberry crumble from recipes of her aunt


Little Monty Pi enjoyed whipped cream and emotion much more

than obedience and hypothenuses and left mere equations behind

licked off the whisk and dreamed of the perfect circle for good


vanilla emotions danced with sweet sugar candy mountains as

his feelings submerged into a fantasy world coated in cinnamon

he was warned that he might have eggy intuitions on his face 


for shells would easily crack and ovations weren’t perfectly round 

but his world was not flat anymore and he wished for perspectives

of a different kind than sitting in the lost corner at ninety degrees


if you can stand the heat you should remain in the bakehouse 

savour cookies or condensed milk tarts for such exquisite cuisine

beats mere cognition and the dour fragrance of stale rationale


Mum chuckled while Dad despaired and took out his slide rule

proposed that life was no honey pot and cooking was effluvium

misleading and not up to the fine task of consequential virtues


but like most kids he would only listen to what he wanted to hear

put Nirvana on the headphones and closed his mind to objections

eventually he learnt that life was really a giant rigged rollercoaster


maybe the strawberries were laced with psychedelic truth serum

or the icing on the gateau was to abandon forethought and planning

most of all that he was neither circle nor angle and just needed to be

The Chocolate Pear Shop

BAKED ALASKA GRINNED THROUGH THE SNOWY WINDOW,     
CREPE-SUZETTE NICELY SAT ITSELF ON A FANCY PLATE BELOW,
NEW YORK CHEESECAKE WAS FIT AND STRAIGHT FROM QUEENS,
STICKY TOFFEE PUDDING CLUNG ITSELF WHATEVER THAT MEANS.
   
THE LADY CHEF WITH THE COOKING CAP WRESTLED WITH SPUN SUGAR,
WHICH WRAPPED ITSELF AROUND HER GENEROUS BOSOM THUS FAR;
ORANGE PUDDING WAS SET IN ITS WAYS, GELATINE HAD GOOD DAYS,
STRAWBERRY GATEAU EASED ITS WAY BETWEEN LIPS MOST WAYS.

IT WAS CLOSED ON A SUNDAE BUT OPEN AGAIN ON MONDAY,
YOU COULD SEE THE LADY WITH THE CAP CHASING PANCAKES AWAY,
THE CREAM IS BETTER HERE - NONE OF THAT SLOPPY THIN STUFF,
YOU KNEW AFTER ALL THE 'SLIP AND SLIDE' - YOU'D HAD ENOUGH.  

CHOCOLATE RAN DOWN THE SIDE OF FRUIT, STAND AND STARE,
THE COATING WAS ENOUGH - I'VE ALWAYS LIKED A NICE PEAR.

Astronomical Encompassing

Awaiting bristled whisper of ghost jounced leaves
Lain gazing galaxies far from terra's tarpaulin roof 
Exciting diamonds claw for cosy navy ink reprieve 
Hark my insignificance in succinct majesty's truth


Hushed by muchness, my warmth absorbs His plenty
Lapped by luminous lure, iced gateau half eaten moon 
Crumbled among sudden calm of Master's immensity
Awash in melodic acknowledgement, midnight's tune


Flung hungry flouresce of surged fireflies fighting 
Tenure very temporary, attempt to reach realisation 
Spread as cake laden table, sugary array imbibing 
Drunk on the gifts of gateau smile faced dedication 


Heavy sun slumbers elsewhere, heat not apparent 
Reality rests unreadable, dispelled from night haven
Swum in wonder of dark desire, denying my errant
Shot stars instrusive find my heart entirely enslaven

Premium Member Paris By Day

Paris by night is gay,
I prefer Paris by day
I love the ambience and style,
French fashion stands out a mile,
From all the others in that trade,
The best designs are Parisienne made.
The French have flair beyond compare,
I praise the food and savoir-faire
Visiting a French bakery
For cafe au lait, gateau or tea,
Little bistros are a treat,
Place where young lovers meet.
Romance in Paris Ooh La La,
For love, one does not need to look far.
Couples walking hand in hand,
It could be just a one night stand.
The French love to love, so they say,
Even if it lasts for just one day.
The feeling of romance is everywhere,
Strains of music in the air.
People reading while sipping wine,
The atmosphere is simply divine.
The lake shimmers like glass
As children's toy yachts come bobbing past.
I have lost all sense of time, as I'm
Captured by the contentment on the faces
Of people of different ages and races
Enjoying their day,
In their way.
