Tis the fate believers buy.
That when they sin hallow,
Then affliction will them swallow.

A train runs Cape Town to Cairo.
It will be through here by and by.
The route is straight as an arrow,
It’s like riding clouds through the sky.

They say my dad’s humor is dry,
but after some pints by and by,
he gets lubricated
and jokes unabated
says things make you wish you could die!

Supermoon

Brightly your light it fills the sky,
We sit and watch you from afar,
Slowly the dark creeps by and by,
Red is the color you now are.

Witnessing Road Kill

Walking down sidewalk
Watching cars pass by and by
Looks from side to side

In dismay looks down
Now hating every roadster 
Death smears on one tire

Books like brooks bring relief,
Inspiring immersion into beliefs,
By and by, life begins anew;
Lores of life resounds, renew.
Each word distils like dew.

Have you seen him, Jim?
The wide river, he did swim,

somewhere in the by and by.

Chaps

A young cowgirl will sing by and by
"Whoopee tie your yipee whoopee tie!"

To a bull's ding-a-ling
But has nary a clue with small fry

On Trump Hard To Rely

On Trump Hard To Rely

No matter how hard I will ever try,
On Trump found him hard to rely;
What we hear,
Pain in rear;
He should be impeached by and by.

Pick Your Poison

Pick Your Poison


When a rattle snake bites you,
Do you seek after it in revenge, and possibly die?

Or

Do you seek to get the venom out, and live on, by and by?

Politician

There once was a man who could tell no lie.
Could laugh quietly and deeply cry.
Placed into politics,
Then learning, some new tricks.
Now truth forgot, so much by and by.

I held a Soup contest then fudged it. Didn't think I'd really go judge it. Then the months went by and by while my hand played in my fly. How soon the poets did begrudge it!

Premium Member Double Entente

The ape was a mimic
So badger pestered him

A dog tricked the fox
And followed him to crow

This boast  to a rat
Was betrayed ...by and by

Tampering with its meaning..
was a monkey...on the sly.

Premium Member On Wycombe Hill

In
a stand
of thinnings-
picked by and by
a bodger
turns his pole-
sweat drips in his 
eye;
the
blade glides
to and fro-
on his homemade
lathe;
one
by one
the pile grows-
legs of beech and
elm.

Skeleton Tree

Kids beneath it played
Home to birds and animals,
Proud and happy,stood.

Years passed by and by,
Lost its leaves and happiness,
It grew old and cold.

Lonely,abandoned,
Hurt by the name it is called-
A skeleton tree..

Clocks Ticking

Circling
Looking forward
Onward
Can't go back
Knocking on the future
Sleeping off the past

Ticking away the hours
Inching by and by
Can we face tomorrow?
Knowing 
It’s something new
Never going back
Got to go on.

Hate

We seemingly walk beside
The broken mouse's 
Who wage a war
In glass filled houses 
With rose tinted windows 
Where death resides 
By and By
Empty Souls 
And poisoned words
That spring from pages
From the middle ages

Here We Are

here we are but free roaming still by and by questions demand responses and forever moving forward and onward passing hours passing minutes killing days sweeping hands howling blowing wind

Better We Live Better We Try

Better to Live and let Live
Better Prevent Intellectual Slaughter
Better If We Have a Say In The Matter
Better To Stay Sane
Better Avoid The Pain
Better Still
Better We Try
Better We Live and Die
Better for life By and By
