Reactivated Poems


Need Rehab On Cold Slab and More

Need Rehab on Cold Slab

Could be because I became a crab;
What we really need is some rehab;
For while waited;
Was reactivated;
They found us lying on a cold slab.

My Goodness and Great Lord

Oh my goodness and great Lord,
So He will welcome you aboard; 
Will invite,
More poems write;
Hearing from does look toward.

Jim Horn


On test started with vibe and verve;
Then results had downward swerve;
Afraid;
Failing grade,
So teacher did grade us on a curve.

Jim Horn

Was a bitter quitter of the liter; 
Had horrible time being a hitter
Saw some trees;
Swang at breeze;
So ended up being a rail splitter.

Hidden Thoughts

Release the pain
brought on by thoughtlessness,
One silly refrain
Can hurt, it's so senseless.

Bitter words spoken
can't be retracted.
Hearts that are broken
cannot be reactivated.

Live life be happy
is how it should be,
not being snappy
making ones life unhappy.

With a smile in your voice
you would be surprised
Might subdue their thoughts of malice
So they are not realised

When you're alone, full of strife
Don't think bitter thoughts,
look for the rainbow in your life
follow it's path.. find what you've sort

May not be a pot of gold
at the end of this light, 
look for a different treasure
you alone can create.....called peace

Speedy Wind

Tree tops touching tenderly at the thick forest
As breeze blows blatantly ,birds and bees have no rest,
Whistling of wild wind ,wins over wood windows ,
At sea shore,subtle sun shines from surface sky,
Poised by placing pear plant on a good position for purchase,
Reactivated by rolling dust of sand which speeds on like
A cascade of cyclone chasing crown canopies of trees,
Desert dusts descended heavily ,dragging dandelion down.

One Bad Apple

People doing backflips in a pool
Were told to stop.
They ignored the lifeguard and
They also dissed a cop.

Soon the pool was closed to all
And several were arrested.
“Hire more security!”
Was what most folks suggested.

That pool holds 1500
And was closed for many years.
Now that it’s reopened,
It’s reactivated fears.

The saddest part to me was that
Just one or two can spoil
The joy of hundreds in the water
When the temps can boil.

They say that one bad apple
Can destroy a great big pile.
Those apples should be sent
To some deserted desert isle!
