Sam is such a fun loving gent,
Ascribing to a Great British accent. 
Missing him and wondering where he went.

I
At prayer table
I touch her hand to agree
She oozes faith, time

II
Our hands clasped
Heart listens to accent
Child-like song-prayer

Misunderstanding

Her accent from Bronx in New York,
This doll said she needed a fork.
The waiter’s reply
Was, “Ma’am, I’ll comply.”
Now she frets, expecting The Stork.

Premium Member The Power of Moving Lips

Politicians are suave but not soothing
Saying much but very little proving
With accent or drawl
They spin one and all
So beware when their lips are moving

Premium Member Beware of Moving Lips

Politicians are suave but not soothing,
Saying much but very little proving.
With accent or drawl,
They spin one and all,
So beware when their lips start moving.

Because Bread Making Is Serious Business

My short name, my lucid green day
My South Dakota doll accent, my life-jacket
My worn through the knee blue jeans

A red ant 
struggles 
between the last two toes.

Premium Member Michael Caine

Actor with a Cockney accent, Michael Caine -
For decades he's been an icon. May he continue to reign.
In 160 films on the big screen he’s been seen,
and also he was knighted by great England’s queen.

Blind Date

American voice soft, she said my name,
Heart racing, I spun round,
And smiled, instantly glad I came.
A beauty, her accent thrilling me with its sound:
The girl I’d spent a lifetime searching for was found!

Quiet Filipina accent whispers to me 

Under warmth blanketing the evening

Each word gently melodic in nature 

Nurturing our love and dreams 

Ember radiance illuminates us 

Endless wonderment shared

When people fear love is not true
Saint Valentine knows what to do
A chocolate pie
Will unzip a fly
So I have an heart on for you!*


*If you did not laugh, read the last
line out loud with an American accent!

The Lead Accent

Ways of painters are ones with pen men
Careful drops born meaningful fortes
Those ones I cherish in them
Rhymesters and verse breeds
Awesome as daylight
Their muse their right
They conceive
Hatch in

Southern Accent

Southern Accent

People in the South their lives have spent,
So they can speak with a Southern accent;
Found in food,
And a family feud;
When they died to heaven with them went.

Long ago

My memories have all but faded
Somehow I still remember how much
Life had really meant to her
“To yearn or to long, which one shall it be?”
I know now that the stress on ‘yearn’ was not due to her accent
“Yearn for a living”
She always said

Glitters That Is All

beauty but skin deep                                                                                                  she spoke her inner accent                                                                                      jargon  bone ugly

May the World Live As One

Although
I become most used
and set, I will always be
an alien on this earth...
As much as I speak, and well,
they will notice the accent...
As much as i become integrated
how much I still lack,
so we can say:
The world will be as one... !

In South Life Have Spent

In South Life Have Spent

People in South there whole life have spent,
So they all ended up with a Southern accent;
Found in food;
A family feud;
When they died to heaven with them it went.

Churches sit upon red hills
And blue birdsong such a thrill
Romantic eyes looks that kill
Onyx night sky blue and still
Lovely southern accent that rings
In ears like song of sweetest dreams 
Neighborhood nosey busy body
And dogwood flowers by the creek
