Premium Member MY BEST FRIEND, MAXINE THE FAIRY
Sunny yellow straw hats with ribbons and bows, Butterflies that shine when the full moon glows, Feather cushions scattered of bright pink and blue, Buttercups and daises have such a magnificent hue, The above are my dreams as I think of you. Chocolates, candy and rainbow-colored gummies, Fill us up and says no more for you to our tummies, Kittens that...

Premium Member Better Names for an Octopus
A better name for an octopus? It's tough to make stuff up. We could start with a brand-new appellation. How about a name like "Suction Pup"?! Or perhaps we could start the debate with a numerical tag like "Ocean's Eight". Another name open for discussion would be a handle like "Squid's Cousin". Still another, somewhat grandiloquent, could be the rather pompous "Inknificent". My Scottish friends,...

Trying not to frighten him…we walked up and whispered in his ear… “Hey little octopus, can you tell us…what in the name of Christmas are you doing here?” “We know every Christmas decoration…Santa,...

Octopus Oscar needs all tentacles eight One to carry his dinner plate One to hold during his presidential debate One to write upon his sixties slate One to open the garden gate One to watch, so he will not be late One to cuddle his friend, Kate One to open his second-hand freight One to balance, so he could roller skate...

Premium Member Critterature: The Peculiar Plight of the Poor Pitiable Octopus
To the ancient Norse he was Kraken With a mean inclination, And the Greeks called him Gorgon With the same reputation. But as monster of myths He's been wrongly miscast, So I'm here to shed new light On this poor creature, at last. An exemplary example Of his cephalopod race, With a blob of a body, The merest trace of a face. He has eight arms, or...

Octopus
I am worn out like a rusted door I slowly left your sight I don't know what happened Do you know what happened? Put a field hair on your head It is an event that did not happen Current events The moment is starting Time is wasted Things can happen in your mind You know what you can't do What are you that makes it right? You...
