   Pardon me, Sir, Ma’am
     
     I believe I’ve made your acquaintance

   Why, yes. 

     Aren't you the chap who always detains us

Premium Memberput down your knees

floating over the forest trees
was for my nephew a breeze
as he floated past
a shadow he cast
I promptly yelled “put down your knees!”

Hardwood Mulch Put Down

President no more
while we had been waiting for
who next is in store

morning seems so still
made by God who always will
all our lives fulfil

heard cardinal call
now spring and no longer fall
from tree which is tall

God is never late
we always appreciate
knowing our each fate

more mulch may put down
made of hard wood and dark brown
smile and no longer

Let's Put Down Our Baggage

Let's put down our baggage
By Michelle Morris
08/05/2023

Oh-oh-oh...
Let's put down our baggage 
Let's free ourselves
Our hearts and our minds
Our bodies and our souls

Oh-oh-oh...
Let's put down our history 
Let's move forward from the past
Never forget our beginnings
Or the memories built to last 

So much life in our living
So much loss in our eyes
How did we let it

Put Down the Gun

Put Down The Gun
  Put down the gun,
 It's had it's day,
  A very primative way,
 Ain't you got a brain, anyway?!
  Put down the gun,
 It's no fun,
  What good's it ever done?
 Except for killing, 
  Adults, children & animals,
 And making some jerk rich,
  Put down

And the Words You Put Down Will Be Magic

Hang tough little ones
      as you walk 
      through the gauntlet of scorn
      and the fists of the bully.
      Hang tough and you will
      come out the other side.

Premium MemberJust Put Down Ttt

She is a liar! I scream.
The nurse tries her best to shush me.
FAKE NEWS! I holler, biting her on the arm.
I cannot stop shrieking now. I am damned mad.
I see her write something down on a tablet.
“What did you write?”
She refuses to show me.
I chase her past closed doors.
The doctor comes out.
“I told you to

Premium MemberOk Boomer - the Now Infamous Put Down

A badge of great honor
We wear it with pride,
They say it’s an insult
But we’ll let that one slide.

A boomer’s a doer
A person with Pep,
Marching alone
To their own special step.

The children of Giants
Who lived through a war
Instilling in us 
The passion to soar.

They call us great bores
Whose opinions don’t count,
Incongruous has-beens
Our words they discount.

Little they know
It’s

Premium MemberPut Down Your Phone

No matter when they gather
    I'm still so all alone.
Because no matter what the time of day
    they're always on their phones.
Early morning dawn to dusk
    they talk and text away.
Afraid some trivial bit of news
    will escape their friends display.

My only respite

Good Girl Cannot Be Put Down

G-ood girl cannot be put down, 
I-n spite of criticism; 
N-either frown nor scorn is 
A-ble to make her day dim. 

D-espite the other's trash talk, 
E-vil deed and humiliation; 
V-ictory smiles at her 
I-n the midst of mortification. 
D-iscomfort is truly felt before winning the crown; 
A-pril twenty-third Sunday, good girl cannot be put

Autumn Put Down Me Bed

Autumn put down me bed
In the grass and the leaves of yours
Cool me I’m hottest lad
But don’t freeze hands of mine, of course.

Make me marquee in wood
Frail but only mine
Autumn I wish I could
To sleep in the bush to be fine.

Give to my fallen soul 
View of the forest’s shade
I will be dead for all

Put Down

I know he has her in his arms, always flaunting her charms;
‘I need you he says’, I don’t understand this;
Yet the promises to knot her he speaks.

He comes close, breathes on me
Holds me tight for hours; and she calls
Gets up and walks to the door, “I’ll be back love he states”
Fooling himself is a big

Put Down Nukes, Put Up Yir' Dukes- - - - - - - --------

HUMAN BEINGS MAN...don't tell me it was necessary!
Couple hundred thousand people obliterated in a few seconds is beyond the realms of scary.

Truman you musta' been sniffin' glue man...you know you didn't need to do it. 
I can hear ya' today giving the A-ok to the Enola Gay, "Kill 'em all...men screw it!"

And not only did
