Long Leave it to me Poems

I don’t know what to expect of you
Something’s wrong with me and you say it’s true
Never did you lie about how you feel about me
Forever I’ve been captivated by your stone of set-me-free

Oh, how long...

The maze-
Twisting turning,
Just a phase,
That's what they say.

But I don't believe,
Cause everything I say is dismissed,
I can't help but wonder what would have happened,
Had I not missed my chance.

I lost it all,
A blink of an...

I’ve got a flat tyre.

Congratulations, hope you’ll both be very happy.

Can you fix it?

Are you going to a fancy dress party?

I’m getting married, Sherlock.

Wow, kept that quiet, who’s the poor sod.

Nigel, and I’m in a...

There I was,
In a big store, 
Picking up some VHS tapes,
Have thousands,
Need more...

I espied,
A curious thing,
A "Head Cleaner"
The curiousity bell,
Did ring

Well, I'll be damned,
Now I've seen it all,
I grabbed one fast,
Bought and exited the mall

I...

Sound the sirens, tell them to bring oxygen in their company 
I'm overdosing on apathy, forcefully devouring justified anger
Sound the alarm, I'm just a volcano waiting to blow
I can't bury my head in sleep
the world...

when you crumble
when you fall
when you feel
you've lost it all

there’s the
air of a problem
in your face 
I can see

so just
heed these words
and leave the pieces to me

talk to me
let it out
let it go
let it be

let...

Dive in head first, my frost queen 
Suffering between the narrow walls of the ravine 
Medusa or machine?
There is no between 
Turn me to stone or write me off in code
But before I leave unwillingly,
I'll...

It was a cold and dreary Christmas Eve, 
the snow was deep so I couldn’t leave.
I was feeling sad and a little down, 
most of my folks don’t live in town.
I thought that maybe I...

It's been a while. So, I thought I'd check in 
Quiet and calm, the waters have been
Questioning a good thing, leave it to me
My world seems ok, how could that be
It feels un-natural, too good...

No hero me only in my dreams
A pleasant night out
Coast walk with my lady
People mesmerised and all just looking
Watching a boat drifting onto the rocks
Somebody must be doing something
Boat striking hitting the rocks
Nobody doing anything
Spineless...

Days of rain bring me great pain close to the Great Depression stuck inside looking out a window guessing if the rain will stop cause the suns coming back out but it's still raining on...

What's left of the crumbs, leave it to me.
His cries tore my ailing eardrums, my skin as blue as the calm of country nights
Then I sank under the mud of the battlefield, My heart sank...

On my bed is a colorful quilt,
Not hand-made – it came from the store.
Each morning I lay it out, always the same;
It’s so simple, it’s not like a chore.

It has to be facing the way...

Write an invitation, send it to your friends 
“Everyone please come, one and all…

We are going to party, have some fun.”
Include a little note with these lines…
“Leave off the gifts, I don’t want them

Begin the tears, halt the years
Stifle fears, sharpen psychic spears
Laissez-faire for my lady fair

Go to your nightmares, to your dreams
Immortal scare, scorching screams
You were my all; I let you fall
And now the price lays on...

Years ago at home sick with a cough,
My Mother made chicken soup for me.
After lunch she would turn the radio off,
And let me watch TV.

I recall one of my favorite shows,
About a small boy named:...

It’s time, its here, it’s that time of year
Time for chocolate eggs and a bunny
But look deeper in and ask, is it a sin?
For many do trivialise with a hat that is funny.

The deeper meaning...

Poor old Daniel Cretona

he carries the woes of the world on his shoulder,

he remembers when young fearing total destruction,

as there seemed no chance for peaceful construction.


The fears disappeared in the following years.

Political Chicanery
By Franklin Price
8/20/1015

Political chicanery
Are spoken words I say
Slightly bending of the truth
Is the politician's way

If uttered words can scrambled be
To turn the meaning 'round
I think I can quite manage
To pound them in the ground

Renew in 2022

2021 was a year 
Through God Grace 
I'm still here 
No longer living in fear (no fear)
God's real 
I know it 
I had a cup he overflowed it 
His mercy he showed it...

He was my fairytale
But he said "it was a lie"
I made a lot of mistakes
But he said " it's just a life"
I was so young and free
I was rookie in love
He said that "I should...

Slowing down
inside
slowly
Whirling wheels
spokes run backwards
Stillness still
repels
Imagination still 
tells stories
draining fuel cells
Rearrange
what matters 
on the open top 
of time
Wasting it
contradicts
the flywheel in my mind
But it’s slowing
and the only fear left standing
may be of wheels
rolling on again

Stress...

Come with me to the lost and found
Come with me, RIGHT AWAY!
For there is something you have lost
Oh, find it now, TODAY!

Come with me, dear, and hold my hand
There's no time to delay
If we don't...

There was a great war in 1969
Many died for no reason
During all four of the seasons
Shot and killed on the battle field

I was the Demolition Man
Disarming and arming 
All things that went BOOM

Where should we go? Wherever you want
Pick a place and I'll get us there 
We'll fly standby and take to the sky 
Or I'll pick and we'll land who knows where

Just leave it to me,...
