Barbara's Father

Bobby Burnett bought a barrette    
For wee, bonny Barbara's long braids.  
Braw Bobby beams on wee bonny Babs       
As she gaen through the glens and glades.

Premium Member Gertrude Besamer

Gertrude Besamer was a bunny with style, flair, and class.
She entered Marla’s Tearoom with a bit of jazzy sass.
Marla complimented her on her barrette made of glass.
And her well-padded bustle which enhanced her pretty a….

Squawk

Squawk! Beetle in your follicles. 
Angry molecules. 
I want bugs everywhere!
Haha! Please share!
It’s just a barrette?
Regret! Regret!
But I still want to flail. 
Howling quail. 
Beetle on my mind. 
To find. 
Fix your hair, girl.
Beetle in the curl.

A Strange Mariner

She was lying on the Ethel’s turret with a sting in the tail
            Felt a squirt on her face and barrette; is it the end of the tale?
                    Water water everywhere water, not a drop to drink
                  Ho ho the machine does totter, not a moment of wink
 She yanked her pants up ,tail between legs, and crossed the sea without sail

Premium Member my desk

A bottle of sore throat relief spray lies on my desk
Along with sixteen torn up pages of past written poems
My cell phone sits here too, a box of Kleenexes, six notebooks
There are two computer monitors on this desk
I like clutter, it makes me feel safe and loved
Is that a barrette? I watch it moving steadily away
A tiny pincher bug, adding a bit of life to this mess

Premium Member Hair


   The hair hangs out,
   Swishing all about.
   Looks like a Bussel sprout!

   Or better yet.
   Electrocuted,
   With a barrette!

   Standing on end.
   With curls that begin,
   And never seem to end.

   Always to slick,
   With products that itch.
   Time to make a proper switch!

   Perhaps it needs a shave.
   To start all over,
   Until it's made!

Still He Loves Her

Yes,

She

Wore a

College girl's

Skirt and sweater and

A barrette in her shoulder length 

Hair. She was the college girl of fifteen years ago. 

She hadn't kept up with the times the way others had and she had a low-pitched, well-bred 

Voice that many people said was subtly insulting.

And confidence and homeliness 

Not often seen—met 

Together 

In one

Face-

One.

Premium Member Barrette

mom placed baby’s breath
in my hair
on my wedding day

my hair she’d squeeze
out in the sink
in childhood no need for ink
i’d think ‘ouch’

‘ouch’ the pain
she laid helpless
on her hospice bed
with merely a couple strands

so brave
she said goodbye to hair
knowing it would grow back

it grows back in time
heavenly fine
a barrette placed with care
by her guardian angel

my sad eyes
smile
at this thought

The Mistress

She waves her skirt on a sidewalk, 
Walking and dancing while she talk,
Her lips are red like cherry fruit
Curly hair with amber barrette hook

She smiles like a maiden chick
She has a nice tone of a rosy cheek
Her eyes glow like a star in the night
Beautiful, rounded dark brown eyes
 
Why she needs to be a one…?
Where she is pretty and her beauty is beyond
Why she need to be a one…?
Where there are lots of fishes in the ocean…

God's Miracle

Shakespeare's pen surrendered to retirement,
Elizabeth Barrette Browning a constant motivation,
Robert Barette Browning, love's companion,
The mysteries of God's universe,
Discovered by humanity,
Honourable companions of the past,
A memory of contemporary excellence,
Companions of the present,
Defined traditionally,
God's nature encompassing us daily,
Blossoming through the seasons,
A writer's paradise.

Premium Member Anxiety Girl

Anxiety girl could turn any situation into something worse.
If someone stole your barrette, she’d say they had stolen her purse.
She looked for the bad under every rock, ledge, collar and chair.
Thinking that no one in the world liked her or gave a care.

Anxiety girl could shake her hands at will.
She focused on the bad, that was her usual drill.
Her habitat was to live in the worst place she could ever be.
People ran from her often, and this included me.
