Peace And Harmony Sequel
One of my first poems
resurfaces in my mind
as I recall my
beginnings as a Poet
I reminisce about
peaceful times when
Peace and Harmony
were plentiful, bountiful
It's amazing how things
can filter through your thoughts
causing emotions
that surreptitiously cement
your current actions
It is all one
big joy ride
that convalesces through
existential surroundings
bound by convictions
that put you in a place
that is calm, serene

Mickey and Duke go to Sleep - a Sequel
Dodgers in five. Yankee fans weep.
Four times Freddie Freeman went deep.
We hope to see you here
again, this time next year.
Duke and Mickey go back to sleep.

Freedom Fighter
Jailed for the will to be jailed
Kids shouldn’t play with fire
But they do, and of course they fail
In full conscious of mad desire
What now, will you write a sequel
To Servantes’s Don Quixote
Lots of tyres around every mill
A borsch with pampushka you’ve got
There’ll be Ursula of Brussels
The lady you wish to know better
There’ll be

The Humour of Stephen Wright - The Sequel
This is a serious question,
I don't want to cause a stink,
but how can you really tell
when you're out of invisible ink?
Scientists ask great questions.
They don't do it for a lark.
We know about the speed of light
so, what's the speed of dark?
The car mechanic called me
while I was eating some clam chowder.
He said I can't fix

ONE MAILBOX AT A TIME- THE SEQUEL
Yesterday I posted a poem about our Volkswagen mailbox-
on which Deborah painted symbols of flowers, butterflies and a dove
It’s our subtle way of stating we hope for a world filled with peace and love.
When we finally mounted out mailbox
with its variety of bright colors- reds blues yellow’s and pinks
we couldn’t wait for Eric our

No Sequel
Written By: D. Collins 10/12/23
Is depriving people of food, fuel, and water genocide?
With no reporters in Gaza and the world lets it slide.
It is easy to look away as if a slaughter isn’t about to happen.
The reason I know it so, is because it’s happened since 1947.
Does bulldozing homes sound like war to any

Love All Creatures the Sequel
Yesterday’s blessing came from Charles Darwin
who, you may remember, expressed it far better than I can….
when he said:
The love of all living creatures
is the most noble attribute of man….
And I spoke for Mr. Darwin
when I said knew through evolution he would be remiss
If he didn’t add women and LGBTQIA+ people to that list.
I didn’t add

A Sequel No One Wants To Write and No One Wants To Read
Another mass shooting…this one in Texas…I don’t remember exactly when
because the days all run together…and there’s been 6 more since then.
We’re on a pace to break the record for mass shootings in one year…
which means there’s no place in this country we can walk into…without fear.
It’s sad to think when we go to school, the

The Ballad of Daphne and Jack, the Sequel
Gather 'round me, my dears,
I'll continue the tale
Of a princess and her pirate lover.
Of her crown unencumbered,
They pillaged and plundered
As they wandered the seven seas over.
Crimes maritime were elating
And invigorating
'til Jack noticed a bulge in her tummy.
The princess first was offended,
But then she comprehended
He would soon be a dad, she a mommy.
Two months later, one

That's Mrs Santa, a Sequel To Trouble At the North Pole
Who's that swell-dressed, well-developed lady
Struttin' round the old North Pole?
Well, bless my soul!
That's Mrs. Santa.
You'd hardly recognize her.
Lookin' like a million-dollar baby,
Heatin' up the cold North Pole.
Back in control,
That's Mrs. Santa.
She's had a transformation.
She was always short and plump but pretty,
Matronly, a "six" at best.
But after just a month in New York City,
She came back

A Sequel To My Testimony
A sequel To My testimony
Written By: Miracle Man
9/8/2022
Once my test had come and passed,
the memory of one young nurse remains.
I related to Ericka God’s hand in my life,
how He had released me from sin’s chains.
Sometimes my test meant death facing,
and I am what I am only by His grace.
I’ll let my life be the

Why: the Sequel
My first day talking to the creators would be filled with question about nature whose answers I’ve long awaited…the second day I’d start with nature then begin asking about the humans they created.
Why create a world so beautiful…why go to such extremes…such pains…
then create forces of destruction…like earthquakes, tornadoes…and hurricanes?
In this beautiful world you created…where
