Premium Member haunting melody

a witch and a pet aardvark

broom to an amusement park

with a mic in hand

and dave brubecks band

warble a strange meadowlark.

The Ride of Your Life

grab life by the horns and ride it till u cant anymore
it will try to throw u off its back and ruin what you dream of
just ride it like its a pony at an amusement park

Premium Member Amusement Park Caper

Urchin on a cedar swing,
summer mist inhaler,
noonday shriek and frolic,
mother blowing fragrant blossoms
at her golden offspring.
Lavenders amid  the shrouded reverie
pave a mystic wonderland aglow

Premium Member Amusement Park

eyes stare in wonder

     enchanted kingdom beckons

             to her inner child

Time spent wonderment 
Ferociously amusing 
Absorbed all day into surroundings 
Screaming gayly 
Roller coaster up and down 
Up and down
Spider ride round and  round 
Round and  round 
COTTON CANDY HEART ATTACKS

SHIVERS UP THE BACK

Taking a dive at an amusement park,
He was taught to notice the arc of sharks.

          Stay out of their way,
          And don’t try to play.

For a shark’s misdirection’s their earmark.

Laugh Medicine

Land of laughs and cackles
An amusement park built to lighten any mood
Freed shackles

Falling down slopes
Chewing on bites of funny food
Lift hopes

You see
Life is not rude
Whee!

Land of laughs and cackles
Chewing on bites of funny food
Whee!

Short Verses

Short verses

Warming sun today 
The wind has taken a break 
We smile behind masks.

At the amusement park 
We didn’t eat fried onion rings
Too many children.

Walk along the coast
The sea-breeze doesn’t sneeze
Tells us a story.

Once I was a seal pup
But was born with hands and feet
Expelled to shore life.

short and sweet

short and sweet

warming sun today
the wind takes a break
we smile behind masks
at an amusement park 
we didn't eat 
fried onion rings
to many children 
walk along the coast
the sea breeze doesn't sneeze
is wholesome 
tells a story
Once, I was a seal pup
but born with hands and feet 
expelled to shore life

The Ending

didn't you see it?
my sheer adoration
how happy I was around you
the childlike giddiness
like a 5-year-old who wanted more
demanding more
naively trusting you
the older sibling
or priest-like figure
who indulged me
swept me away
and left me
like a child lost 
at an amusement park
abandoned 
by the person 
she cared about most

Premium Member Going To Horror Land

We are going to Horror Land ha ha!
Her folks just returned from the Mardi Gras
Who named this amusement park Horror land?
Asked a man whose ideas were large and grand.

Person who created it for Halloween.
It’s the kind of place where most can scream.
The kids like everything about it said Ma.
So when we went, we had to take Pa.

The Best Months

your voice
the way it sounded quiet when you were upset

the sad guitar you played
the melodies that gave me shivers

the laughs and screams
from our first date at the amusement park

the songs you sent me
that make me cry when i hear them now

your heartbeat, so close to mine
a slow, but steady beating

the best months of my life
reduced to memories and sounds

Welcome To Leisure Land

A forsaken theme park, once a magic place It’s hay day in the sixties, quaint and pretty To go there now you won’t find a friendly face Strange outcasts on the outskirts of the city Rumor's fly with grave warnings of fallen grace Chase you with a smile, sinister and gritty Guarded with a shotgun, and it’s oh so grand Doors locked, eyes open. Welcome to Leisure Land!

Premium Member Missing You

It's a funny strange thing

When you're not around

Like the lack of a smile 

On a circus clown

Like a ferris wheel

With all empty seats

Or a candied apple

More tart than sweet

Or a merry-go-round

That looks kind of scary

Or that huge prize teddy

To big to carry

Like an amusement park

On a winters day

And as long as you're gone

That's the way it will stay

I remember

I Remember 

I remember a time
When all was so bright
With bustling crowds 
And neon lit nights

Covered wagon caterpillars 
And bunnies of blue
Teacups that spun
You sat in them too

I remember the days
When scooters could fly
Pinball was king
And everything thrived

I remember the smells
Of hot dogs & beer
I remember it all
And wish it still there

Summer Is Great

School is now over, homework is done,
Now I am ready for summer fun!

I lay in the shade under a tree,
There are so many cloud shapes to see.
Spending my days on amusement park rides,
Spending my nights at a campfire outside.
I just can't wait for the memories I'll make,
Especialy when I go to the lake.

Summer night are long, I stay up late,
This is why I think Summer is great!

Premium Member Actors and Actresses

All actors trailed by actresses
Know the best way to the tunnels
Is to already be within the
Big Ring that secures this
Magic KINGDOMCUM.
It's not about looking
Through the window and
Getting past the DACS, 
Or going back to where 
I want to end up.
On the grand tour
I could get lost
When lovers i love 
Have no thought of my style.
Go then, go on to Disney Land
And place your hand 
On the magical clock!

Funhouse

It's a little bit funny, it's a little bit tragic.
That the love I once felt has turned into magic. 
Thinking back to where it all began. 
I was a boy in search of a man. 
I thought I knew who I was, 
I thought I knew what I wanted. 
But all that I am is a vacant house haunted. 
Haunted by the memory of trust betrayed. 
My heart has become an amusement park of riches. 
Not knowing how to stop myself from riding this ferris-wheel of emotions.

MEMORIES

a disney moment
woodland      many peeping eyes
the thump of a stump

THE OLD CHEST (repost)

up lid    and
a thousand musty specters cry out
      with memories for but one      
                                        departed

AMUSEMENT PARK

kids on the dock yell
      throw peanut shells
              thrashing catfish

I had witten this piece some time ago
For Who ? now I know.........

Missing You 

It's a funny strange thing

Like the lack of a smile

Or that huge prize teddy

Premium Member Zippily

Listen to poem:
Zippily, zippity, I slip down
the slippery dip slide.
Zippity-doo-dah, slippily-dippity-do!
Suddenly and nippily, tipping 
backwards to quicken the pace.
Snappily, I whippingly 
swish right off the end of the slide.
I launch into space,
Fly high in the air, arms wildly flaying
like a rocket man on steroids, screaming.
I land with an awfully 
painful jolt, snap and thump. 
Woefully my aplomb undone, 
not so spryly or lightly, 
right on my backside.

Premium Member Trauma Carousal, Daily 42

42.
Play the amusement park tune
Start the carousal going round
The child always wants the ride
Recall the eerie childhood sound

My ugly unwashed hair
Crooked brown stained teeth
The shame of poverty’s snare
The dysfunctional disease

Bring out the youth’s trauma
Make it a Technicolor show
Where the past belongs in gray scale
To make drama, memories must grow.

Mistakes that will not fade
Sticking to my sides like glue
The wound that mother made
Am I unclean beyond repair?
