Shrewd, sly and savvy Jack Frost
Paints the world in shining icy ghost,
With his snowy glittering art,
Amidst his peers, plays a bright frosty part.
We die a little bit
Each day and each night
As we live every minute
Gleeful or glum under the light.
We die in our sleep
And rise again if we’re lucky
And blessed. This is deep
Few people are truly canny or savvy.
Believe not in all the glitters
When it’s time to go or to depart
Gravity behaves like deadly creatures.
We die every day and every night
A little mum or sharp under the weight
As darkness exists deep in the heart.

A witch flew a magical broom
That lost its magical zoom.
She decided to buy
A broom that could self-fly
and beat a rocket to the moon.
Lead us NOT into temptation
Just deliver copulation
You may think it odd
That we pray to God
But 'tis caused by desperation!
Wonder wild will
Tasty touch thrills
Curious cheer crafts
Dreamy daze drafts
Weary words write
Crafty craft cites
Savvy strokes set
Gracious gift gets
Cluster calm choice
Pretty plants poise
Naked nude notes
Velvet vibes vote
Telling truth tones
Happy highs hone
Sexy swift strokes
Jumpy jazz jokes
Wordplay works well
Touching true tell
Lavish lines leap
Poignant prompt peep
Special sports spill
Quiver quaint quill

Two nurses and a doctor try to coax me into a wheelchair.
I sit firmly, hard, arms crossed, not doing it no matter what.
A nurse's aide comes in. She says "Therapy dog is down at X-ray today."
I jump into that wheelchair like the bed was on fire, and away we go.
No dog in sight, but a very savvy nurse's aide.
Sweet sounds
Glimpse grounds
Be bright
Seek sight
Work wise
Pick prize
Sit still
Word will
Meek mind

Bright bit
Style smile
Prompt pile
True treats
Grace greets
Cheer choice
Please poise
Love lights
Set sights
Love lots
Pure plots

Seek then the way to know the truth,
Touch a deep core as feelings urge;
Ask joy to play with zest as proof,
Yes feel much more that poignant surge.
Start where you are with heart and mind,
Align with grace as peace shows how;
Vouch cheer on par with precious finds,
Voice to each face a wholesome now;
Yield to the light in journey bold.
See that sure stretch where success hints,
Intuit fine sight when all seems cold;
Glimpse a pure catch as moments mint,
Now dare to live what love declares,
Sense gifts to give with brilliant flair.

Strange times
Percolate madness;
Cellphone fetish
~~~~~~~~~
Cellphone stalker
Curious episodes;
Checking, re-checking
~~~~~~~~~
Eyes glued
Colourful display;
New media savvy
~~~~~~~~~
Newfound loneliness
Mobile distractions;
Zero people skills
~~~~~~~~~
Empty moments meet
Stone cold template;
Tantrums escalate
~~~~~~~~~
Despite devices
More lonely people;
Broken touch points
~~~~~~~~~
Better devices
Lesser communication;
Info overload!
~~~~~~~~~
Virtually virtual
Pleasure principles;
Creative obstacles
~~~~~~~~~
Touch and feel and see
That virtual reality;
Common sense falters
~~~~~~~~~
Internet disease
Chatter meets splatter;
Informs confusion
~~~~~~~~~
Savvy emoticons
Emojis dazzle;
Lingo of feelings
~~~~~~~~~
Learning
To learn;
How to unlearn
~~~~~~~~~
New-found joy
Savvy strokes tell;
Latest digital device

Strange times
Telling tales;
Savvy distractions

Observe the choice in votes cast here,
Urge that firm show of how we feel;
Reach wears a poise in silent cheer.
See how hearts know the common will,
Allow faith room to bless and groom;
Value calm peace in sanguine fate,
Vest in sure blooms where fragrance booms;
Yield sense of ease in poignant date.
Come to know truth in myriad forms,
Hope knows the quest for secure ways;
Opt to sense proof in simple norms,
Indulge the fest in factual stay;
Caress the plain in simple tact,
Exult true gains in how we act.
