So much did they argued.

I once knew a pirate name Geer
Thought that prices for piercings were dear
He argued a while
Then agreed with a smile
And said, "I'll pay, buck-n-ear!"

Premium Member Crock Attire

Standing in line like good little crocks
They argued about who'd get his socks
They didn't want meat
Not much of a treat
But crock socks would cause 'em to talk!

I rode my bike west until I hit the ocean blue.

Meeting Half Way

They argued,and he said when time had passed,
"You're half smart but half dumb, in contrast!"
Since it took a bit
For him to say it
She replied, "You're half slow and half fast!"

One day, a Catholic argued with a Jew,
Whose faith is more kind, whose faith is more true.
Seized by the neck and squeezed very tight,
The Jew confessed - " Your faith is more kind!"

He spoke with a tear, with a unconcealed pain.
The optimist listen to him  with a hidden fain,
He rubbed his hands with a wish  to explore!

At the Pharmacy

When I saw him enter,
an illiterate, I surmised
(one you may despise)

But he spoke some words
about the drug he wanted…

He changed my mind.
Pharm argued no further.

We learnt a lesson.

Premium Member better use pusillanimous

Better use pusillanimous said his cousin Nell

Sunflower Moon

Across the face of a 
     Sunflower moon
     swirled a veil of cloud 
     gone too soon.

Sky-gazers asked, 
     guessed and argued:
     Was it the moon or cloud 
     or sky that moved?

After You

The old man at the bar passed gas with a burn 
In front of a young lady who looked quite stern
With nose held she plead
Why do that before me
He argued “ I didn’t know it was your turn”

maybe tomorrow

Premium Member Christmas Eve Blind Date

Weirdly enough, he also looked exactly like Dr Seuss’s Grinch.

Story Headline

I knew better
- a headline taught me
I hated intensely
- a headline enticed me
I clicked furiously
- a headline led me
I argued vigorously
- a headline fed me
I grew superior
- a headline lifted me.
The story?
Oh, too boring.

Premium Member Tycoons In Line For Supper

They argued about the ruble, the kyat, the gold cordoba too
More conversation about lira, Swiss franc, and Moldova Leu.
Discussion soon turned to the rupee, new peso and Brazilian real,
Money talk ceased as they lined up for their evening meal.

Premium Member I Think She Had a Husband Once

I think she had a husband once, an uncle stated firmly.

Where would he be? Asked grandma, looking at her crochet hooks.
I guess he’d probably be dead, smothered beneath these awful books.

Ralphie is angry today the woman told her man.

Premium Member The Day I Faced a Peacock

The day I faced a peacock was the first day of the rest of my life.
We discussed politics, religion, and argued with all kinds of strife.
This peacock’s eyes narrowed, I could see by his beak he did not agree.
Without malice or gloating, I admit this did not bother me.

Baby I'M Sorry

We argued and argued.
I was so mad!
But once I calmed down
It wasn't that bad.

Baby, I'm sorry.
I hate when we fight.
We can't go to bed mad.
Not even one night.

Let's put this behind us
And start over new.
'Cause the one thing I'm sure of
Is the love I feel for you.
