aghast at the strength of thorns,
the fragrance so sweet;
Hand holding a shy flower,

The full moon
Throws blue light on clouds
Winter night
Dry landscape 
And all lovers sit indoors 
Watching “Come Dancing”...

A senior took one pill too many
And woke up incredibly skinny
His wife looked aghast,
"I thought you had passed
And sold your parts for ten guinea!"...

When Power of God Is Vast
we would stand aghast
when power of God is vast
our sins soon went past

when in bed would lay
with me God shall always stay
prayers to Him did say...

An amazingly ugly gnu,
Once stopped on the plains for a poo,
A lion went past
And was almost aghast
So he ran off whilst yelling "Ker....phew"!...

Untitled #2
slams again he yacks his toes
and rashes back against the throes
prays aghast
he screams out No
and bleeds against 
the bathroom floor
tears of dust
o god no more...

Crayon's
Creative mind and body,
Rummaging through time and space,
Aghast at the very thought,
Yonder space,
Only monochrome colour's,
No nonsense approach,
Singing as you sketch....

Last Straw Trump Possessed
Last Straw Trump Possessed

For a while now we stood aghast;
Trump had a tendency to procrast;
He is imperil;
Bottom of barrel,
And straw in possession is his last.

Past Will Last
Past Will Last

While we stood there and were aghast,
Had started wondering about the past;
Were it had been?
Not return again,
Yet forever we know it will always last.
