LOVE MAKES FOOLS
Oh what a fool I was to fall in love with a girl like that. To think someone perfect, who had the pick of the field, would look twice at a boy like me; would even notice I existed. And yet, each night, she invaded my dreams; my turbulent dreams as I tossed and turned. Then, one day, I plucked up the courage to tell her the...

Premium Member The Difference a Rhyme Makes
Ominous leaden clouds sink low in the sky overhead. Tiny sparrows cease to fly and seek shelter instead. Shadows fade, the sun slinks away and disappears. The gloomy day only increases all uncertainty and fears. Everything seems to have turned the colour of ash. Morose feelings overcome me, as rain falls with a splash. As I walk along it stains the...

Premium Member What Makes Me Smile
Seeing the beauty of the morning sunrise, then seeing the colorful sunset at the end of my day. Making someone laugh when I go shopping, seeing their face go from dull to lighting up. Nothing is better than a new puppy, all soft and furry with a kiss from a tiny tongue. A child's face in wonder, giving them a double ice...

Premium Member Yummy Food Makes Me Smile
Potato chip, I love you up, my darling little buttercup. A cup! A Reese’s chocolate one with peanut butter. Oh, what fun! What fun is time with nacho chips; delightful cheese to tease my lips. My lips around a hamburger, with onion rings my heart to stir. Stir the chili in the pot. Add Tabasco; cook it hot. Hot, that snack I love so well, is...

Premium Member What Makes Me Smile--All Things Christmas
I love the sights of Christmastime from manger scenes to mistletoe. Sweet, joyous sounds pervade the air from "Praise the Lord" to "HO HO HO!" I give to those who are in need, for God says, "Love your fellow man." Then when I shop for family, I buy them every gift I can. The carolers...

"My whole life makes me smile in so many ways, even looking in the mirror makes me laugh these days." Quote by The Poet When the early perfumed jasmine is in bloom, It tells me that spring time is coming soon. On a long lonely day that seems to have no end, It's a wonderful feeling to get a...

What Makes Me Smile
An “ex” phones up to tell me that she’s broke: Republicans get beaten in a vote: unwary tourists, chowing down on goat: some moron doesn’t understand my joke: uncomprehending, tells me that I’m “woke”: destroying doubters with a Dumas quote. The Sinking of the Maine – that hapless boat was downed by Randolph Hearst’s own payroll folk, and not the Cubans. Furnishing the...

Premium Member The outside world makes me sick, suffocates me, dissolves my essence beneath my own skin
The outside world makes me sick, suffocates me, dissolves my essence beneath my own skin, Home seems like a distant illusion, reality—a thin veil ready to tear, I beg for other shells to cover my body, to hide my vulnerability, Loose clothes, shining chains, quiet shoes—all to divert attention. I try to hide the pain, to blur the days...
