I refuse to live in a castle said the king
maybe a houseboat, hut or yacht up in Bing?
a treehouse even, if it has an elevator ding-a-ling
royal kitty rolled his eyes with exasperated zing
But not a beehive, for I am allergic to their sting
Realtors called all day, every few seconds, a loud ping
This cottage has a garden, tractor and a porch swing
I do not want to do any work at all, reminded the king
As a weaker power this is so..' he needs must get your permission.' This is how it
Always go's he'll ask your permission.'
And spell
It out.! He needs a contract.' Which he will
Later (Wave about) just so God, knows he's played by some rules.? That you signed up
And are just useless fools'.
why did you offer both hands to be tied.? To be led to
Punishment.' Yet many tried..? To awaken
And rouse, with historys past..I know.!!! I
Guess its not an easy task.? As great consumers' and strongly programmed.! It
Would take effort and thought.'
Was that the hardest ask.?
Just wanted to let you poets know
You’re helping my small company grow
My county Library desires copies wow
Of the book you poets wrote
What Makes Me Smile
So excited I scream out loud!
October 18 Praises to God Bible Meditations Based on Mark 10-12
Key Verse – Mark 10:51 And Jesus answered and said unto him, What wilt thou that I should do unto thee? The blind man said unto him, Lord, that I might receive my sight.
PRAISE BE TO GOD FOR ANSWERING OUR REQUESTS

Could you be my best friend? The penguin asked.
And my best friend? A snowman queried.
I can be all of your best friend, Santa replied.
The best answer of all in case your friends ask you.
Did the pen write one's mind
The paper has no rights to interfere
Everyone has his own secrets
Dreams and requests
You have no rights to question
Unless you are deprived of
An equal and fair share on earth
When money intervenes
There is little resistence
When man thinks of money
There is no place for others
Not even God
Whenever man thinks of God
There are too many requests
Money, power, happiness, longivity and many more
But man always
Forgets to reserve a place in the heart
For "Him", the almighty god.
Is the same love we possess
Look out for one another
Be kind to each other
Love your neighbour
As does your Savior
Offers leadership
Through new friendships
Protection he does give
Through his life we do live
Never held a grudge
Replaced it with love
Protecting our hearts above it all
For God shall never allow us to fall
This year Santa's requests come by Zoom
And a flat-chested Miss full of gloom
She asked 'please do your best'
I'd love a double D breast
He obliged and she's now in full bloom..
Another asked for a new nose
'Cause the one I’ve got just grows and grows
Truly I am not fibbing
And I take so much ribbing
You should hear the din when it blows.
Santa soon became really depressed
He'd had so many awkward requests
He felt so fool of doom
He got rid of his Zoom
And concluded a letter is best.

Topic: Birthday of Francis Jerard Licup (March 02)
Form: Vertical Monocrostic
Received Several Requests
Did receive several requests to write this:
Point may refuse or maybe might miss;
Am bad news bearer;
Trump is holy terror,
And daily own death he does often kiss.
Jim Horn
Behold! The reaping gantry.
Dusted lungs and coiling flame
Silver pity from his seduction
Serpent shedding no final gain,
A toll to pay your darkness
as she ponders memory lane
light seeping through the shadows
what once was will still remain,
Bleeding sight from all who know me
Shall not quench my unknown pain
As I am dancing with the devil
what once was shall still remain,
I Whisper farewell to last prayers
as the black wolf howls my final tune
from the bagpipes he lays his mystery
now I'm a roving quite like you.
My Lady Requests So Much
Shall I splash love into your gay heart
gift a golden treasure beneath your feet
setting my sail into your longing chart
my heart quickly pulsating to your beat
Shall I chain my mind to your sexy dream
clouds of hope wrapped deep into your quests
Tasting the sweetest drops from your steam
slavishly hold each of your love requests
Shall I now set my hopes onto your all
embracing your charms every night's feast
Set my heart to your every beck and call
worship your beauty as a loyal priest
Nay, my love I shall gift to you with strings
Requesting songs of your love that rings!
Robert J. Lindley 08-28-2014
note: All requests are granted.
I that trades love for love find a
treasure beyond all measure!
Blasphemous Repost Requests
By Elton Camp
“If you love God, repost this is what I say.
If so, he will do you a favor right away.”
What possibly motivates this stupid request?
Inviting and urging you to put God to the test
As if on Facebook he trains his beaming eye
So that those who repost he is going to spy
“That person did the repost especially fast.
I’ll do him a favor before a minute can pass.”
“But I’ll take time from managing the universe
That unbeliever who didn’t to especially curse.”
At least to me, it absolutely does seem
Such repost requests actually blaspheme
Who authorized the poster to speak for God?
Doesn’t that appear to you to be quite odd?
Such repost requests I intensely abhor
And plan to continue simply to ignore
Those Obnoxious Facebook Game Requests
By Elton Camp
Anthony’s weiner I’d nearly as soon see
As your game request number thirty-three
You sent another as you’ve done before
And once again, I fully intend to ignore
Of all things the Facebookers post,
I despise game requests the most
They are just so disgustingly inane
From sending more, please refrain
Your idiot dog’s pic is better than that
Or even one showing your hairball cat
Perhaps this will help you to realize
How much game requests I despise
