beets and brussel sprouts
were really on the outs
sprouts got spoiled
beets got boiled
—aromatically challenged louts
Weathered worn women,
obviously built tough;
May they grow when challenged,
energized by ascendancy;
Natural and nurturing.
My undefeated streak challenged
the four year old
told the two year old
Papa can’t go to his left

The mostly read book
What are in it all are true
Writer has challenged
No one has found any fault yet
Such great book only one in earth.
You set the standards,
And they should not be challenged
By the obsolete.
Since you are the boss,
You deserve to rule the world,
By getting ahead.
When the stars align
'tis then the magic unfurls
Prophetic moment
Insular earthlings challenged
Their narrow vision enhanced.
There was a young man from Detroit
Whose thinking they say was adroit
He challenged the sun
To have some hot fun
Ended up with his head en pointe.
There once was a man from Le Mons
Who thought he had life in his palms
But his wife disagreed
And challenged his creed
So now he knows that he was wrong
I was challenged to dance off
From a boss with a very bad cough
Danced, spinning around
And then he almost drowned
As he choked, from the almost face-off
Awaken,
grateful,
daily.
Alive,
living,
challenged,
again,
amazing!!!
Blessed,
homeward,
praying,
saying,
thank you,
Creator,
again,
DAILY.
With a heart as good as in heaven,
though detained in earth of love’s leaven.

Honorable Mention
Listen here Jack I have to admit
When given a challenge I never quit
I'll think up some stuff
It won't be real tough
I'm quick with the draw and with the wit
Yellow ribbons furl
on oaks that line our driveway
as we await your return.
Their luster's now pale,
reflecting the challenged hope
of a son you’ve never met.
upon being challenged
by animals in human form
there’s nothing to be done
except to blow them a kiss
and move on
respecting the journey of each soul

Any state's electors
May now be defectors
A state may go for Trump
But its electors can choose 'her'
A recipe for chaos, pure
To be challenged in court, for sure
Slightly slouched sleeping in my sitting chair
Static sounds screaming on screen
Wake me while watching me
To Caleb my 7 year old who challenged me to write a poem about TV
If you are not happy with your life, change it.
If you don’t feel love, find it.
If you aren’t challenged in life, create it.
If you have a dream, make it happen.
Directions
I can be longitudinally challenged
at times so please forgive my sense of
direction and all I ask is you give me
some latitude.
dissident
challenged present
lost his head
nitroglycerine
violent violet
heated air
burns scorns
returns its vengeance
thrusts into their dead
body his new
doctrine

I Am The Master Of This
--Ophelia's Story
for Kathrin Desiree W. 1/19/11
At the mercy of leering monkeys
From which one shrinks
A changeless sum
Challenged by a scornful Spinx.
I remember when the world felt free
When i was challenged by all that I could see
But the days are less than more
Which means I have fewer to adore
And now I must be the best I can be
aka “Tall Poppy Syndrome”
In there your shadow
that is challenged to please you,
ghostly promises
from one whom forsaken life
and will not rest till you do.

The speaker
Is challenged..by
Impossibility..
One word spoken
Speaks of
Separation..
Even to say
Not-two..is two..
Apparently
No escape
From two..
Apparently...
Tales about the wild wild north
Prospectors, fortune seekers, and poets of course
We ruled with an iron fist
If challenged we hissed
Till we got angry and rode away on our horse
because i said so
we never questioned this
out of respect
because i said so
heard daily in the sixties
never challenged
because i said so
because we were the children
and they were parents
