As he approached his aged, mangy dog
Lying still n’ waiting summons, it wagged its tail...

We finally locked in trance
Zoning in our passion

A four-leaf clover!

As I approached
  its leaves were three
What Fate lay in store
  for unlucky me...

Then when April approached I opted to stay
But us living together

Until June smiled brightly and took me away...

Unrecognized,
Until we straightened out all the mess.

the way that you came at me 
can not stand the way that 
you approached me so suddenly 
invading my space with your 
unwanted unnecessary 
unwarranted interrogation...

But Parisians, so almost that open
Servicemen approached them cautiously
Pulled up two chairs, flirted a bit.
They humored them before sending them packing....

Facilitating and friendly just like you, 
And I so often wished that Able was datable....

approached a nymph sleeping in underwood
a gambler loved by the bards

with sleight of hands lost his axe, boots and hood

Heard a siren, an ambulance approached from the west
They didn't waste time

Give me all      your      love,
Because your love       is beautiful."...

I think I let the Hot Kitty Rancid Milk out the bag
My friend approached me in anger

I ran her gossip in and out of a crowd in a full zig-zag...

From another's blank horizon
Rises your brother's habitation
Can it be overlooked then?

Stretching with the sympathies
Out from coldness of craters
Approached are the Maker's
Fixed sensibilities....

   to be quite rich before he's old.

   and caused him pause, to stop and say,
"My gosh! I'm wealthy! A fact it 'tis.
I'm oh so rich! I've lots!...

Peering though their windowsills 
Their diamond studded eyes glaring 
wicked laughs whispered as I pass them
heeled sandals strapped Black 
and leather combat boots
gleam and glow in sarcasm
never to be approached, unless custom made....

A funny thing happened to me at the saloon last night
This dude approached me and asked me if I was up for a fight
Answered “sure, why not”
Punched him on the snout
Last time he'll try funny business with an armored knight...
