Savoir Pirotta's Scores, Roll

Saviour Pirotta's, .... Scores, Roll!

Loud From Our Victories, .... Hopes!

A Question of Balance

Reality occasionally hallucinates,
      poetry almost always enchants
      our art is to balance the extremes,
      so that we compile the finer results

Premium Member Savoir Faire Poet





       The poet, bright, sat upon his comfy chair. 


       He was peacock proud of his savoir fare! 


       Face changed red...password,English for derrière!

Premium Member Savoir Faire

Lovely to know He is everywhere,
For love blooms anywhere He goes,
Answering every fervent prayer-
The source of endless rainbows!

Knowing just what to do and when,
Every single time, right on time;
So shadow flowers may recur again,
And fruit so blushes at its prime.

And creepers know whence to creep,
As bunnies hop in fields of summer;
And Mole knows if he's in too deep,
While each early follows latecomer.

He espies the trailing fireflies,
Glamourizing all the summer nights;
And hears the many fatigued cries,
Of songbirds on southern flights.

He created magic of midnight stars,
And the long slow dance of the moon;
Oversaw our reigns of ancient tsars,
And commanded shadows at high noon!

Premium Member Savoir-Faire of the Great Bear

If you should hear him coming, fear his roar
His grizzled warnings, you should not ignore
A formidable champion is Ursus, a carnivore
His claws protects those he loves with vigour

He confidently stands on two powerful legs
to liberate the world from its deviant dregs
Quite beastly is his gnarly savoir-faire attitude
when in combat with the insolent and the rude

He'd prefer to live in harmony with c'est la vie,
thinking, That's life and what will be will be
But he will fight when needed... c'est la guerre
Off to war with courage, strides the Great Bear

With one arm held in check, he'll not be denied
the voice to rebuke those who abuse and deride
If blinded in one eye, he would never hold back
To defend those in need he would bravely attack

Thanks To a Savoir

Have an attitude of gratitude
Makes you a happy and healthy dude!

Get rid of the worst nightmare
Who does Satan really scare?

On God's side forever more
Witnessing never a bore!
