Premium MemberAnother Pail Of Water

A dog and a cat 
Sat on a porch 
Watching Jill water her plants 

Jill felt happy and swell 
Because the water from the well 
Made her flowers all rise up and dance 

They danced in the sun 
And had so much fun 
The colorful petals from roses 

Made the dog and the cat 
Both

A pail and shovel
Bright red
A castle to build
A moat to fill

Seagulls shriek
Crabs scurry
As tidal creep
Threatens the kingdom

Premium MemberBaby Calf Bathes In a Pail

Baby calf takes his bath in the pail no matter what
Nearly taking off his chin in an “upper cut”
Because his face is too large, and his petootsie is too
I can hear him trying to get out, he has a loud moo.

Premium MemberMy Bucket Lists a Little Pail

I suppose the usual suspects, 
should fill up this poem,
City of lights, ancient pyramids, 
colosseum in Rome,
To be honest I seen all these places, 
sitting playing the slots,
Yeah we’re talking Vegas baby, 
sin city, I’ve given it a shot,

Been up the Eiffel Tower, 
Bellagio fountains down below,
Viewing the Sistine chapel,
in Venice along the same road,
Look

The Pail of Water

What do you think of when you watch the sun rising?

In dawns early light, Find peace as the stars fade, And the
light of day brings A new beginning of a day, A day of
wonderment, A day of excitement, A day of adventure, A
day that can never be replaced.

When you see, Do not see with your

Premium MemberHe Went Up Her Hill To Fetch a Pail of Water

He went up her hill to fetch a pail of water


He looked into the wishing well
It was dark, yet enchanting
When he put his ear next to it
It seemed to be calling his name
Like an oasis is to a dessert beckoning 
a thirsty man
He was thirsty, too
The edges of the well began to stand up
It seemed

Premium MemberBells That Don'T Ring, Throw Down the Pail

When mining thoughts, how deafening the ring
We search the walls of silence for a vein
A golden verse to strum on soft heart strings
To touch someone and stake a poet's claim

We chip away, in rubble, as we pick
It falls as wads of paper on the floor
When suddenly a glowing candlewick
We've struck the mother lode of metaphors

And

Me and My Pail

Me and My Pail 
By Joeysguy

From birth my mom wiped away my tears
She did it into my childhood years

Growing up I stopped the crying
Until the day of my wife’s dying   

I have this pail that no one can see
It’s invisible except to me

The pail is for the tears from my eyes
I won’t need

Pail

I was not sorry to see my heart creep so,

plodding brick elephants of snow,

I was not sorry to see my heart go.


I sent it off my all my might,

rather, it best should have gone

long before daylight,

I kissed it soft as dead flower sewn,

my eyes its eyes,

my song its song,

and never could a move prove wrong,


thus

Such a Pail

Such a pail 
I have a sweet beautiful daughter
Who is always fetching me water
Each day without fail
she has such a pail
When my daughter brings me the water

I Carry My Pail

I carry my pail,
With water to bail,
To the little creek.
With the water knee deep,
I hope not to fall into the creek.

With the rain from the hurricane,
It's had not to feel the pain.

People lost,
Homes gone,
It only seems right that they get a song.
To help with all that has taken place,
With the new troubles they must face.

The Lunch Pail

He left for work, lunch pail in hand –
a warm kiss on the cheek at the door.
His arms wrapped me in a big, bear hug –
he promised he’d be home at four.

The feel of his embrace as a warm cocoon –
made me happy to be alive.
The sound of his tires on the gravel –
as he
