Garbage Truck

One habit to which I adhere
I clean out my Ford once a year
Back seat yet to fill
Keep truckin’ until
I’m no longer able to steer

The Sky

The Sky

The sky should give off a 
unique smell that tells us 
when to 
clean out 
long overdue unwanted items in 
our drawers.

The Energetic Farmer

An energetic farmer called Murray
Had a struggle to clean out the slurry
The pipe would block
By a big stone or a small rock
That’s why he was always in a hurry
Form: Limerick

Deaf

I couldnt quite hear.

Or should i clean out my ear?

Ha ha ha thats real funny!
Oh... thats not what you said?
Im sorry hunny.

Spilling My Tears Catharsis

Spilling my tears,
 drying my inner river
 washing my soul inside
This I do when I laugh...
When I laugh with an opened smile
when I clean out   sourness
I feel lucky on the outside
and renewed within... !


Premium Member A Race Car Sandwich

I'm going to eat a race car sandwich.

It will run down my gullet, hard and fast.

It will clean out my tummy, and drive past my gas.

It will clean me out, right?

I will eat a race car sandwich at the next red light.

With The Bathwater

When I clean out the corners
and smooth off the edges
All muses desert me
— the magic is gone

***

The Rapids

Adrift
in the words
Lost
to your smile
Caught
in the rapids
Love’s
— turbulent child

Premium Member The Least She Could Do

Queen Erselott ruled the living room
Wearing her gold crown and lilac perfume
Her sister Queen Mae, self-imposed ruler too
Was jealous of Ebony, told that cat to shoo.
But Erselott crowned Ebony Queen of the loo
Let her clean out their litter, the least she could do.

Divorce

After divorce, failure’s the feeling
Mixed with relief, leaving us reeling
Clean out old trinkets, make room for growth
Get past feeling we’ve broken an oath.

Promises made, eventually broken
Tarnish the rings, a union token
Each day’s mystery to uncover
Learning to be our own tender lover.

Premium Member Empty

Empty is the target,
Empty is the dream.
Empty is the sought after
Beautiful colour scheme.

Empty our life,
Empty our soul.
Empty our house
That’s the goal.

Empty our world,
Empty our bed.
Empty our room
And clean out our head.

Void of clutter,
No more weight.
Void of muck 
And free to create.

Premium Member Black Hawk Soars High

black hawk soars high
cardinal comes to feed
black hawk joined by mate
blue jay takes turn

I envy them
none must clean out garagae
jealousy reigns
they don’t buy groceries

squirrel takes off
leaps and twirls
acrobatic 
genius

none of them wash clothes
feathers and fur
that’s the difference
I plot my next life

Premium Member The Season is Changing

For the first time
in two months...

I closed the door,
summer is fading 
into the crispness of fall.

Flower blossoms are poor,
yet production is rich,
creating seed
for spring's progeneration.

Leaves begin trading
their summer attire
for the season's new color,
as I clean out the hearth 
for a cozy night's fire.

Premium Member what solution have you found

I am a collector of worthless things
How they pile up I have no inkling
I clean out my junk drawer at two o’clock
It is crammed full of extra things by two fifteen.

Do others have this problem?
What solution have you found?
Would it work for me?
Bear in mind I refuse to throw away anything
And a husband who stuffs all his extra stuff into drawers.

Someone

Alone in this house
The place is a mess
I need to go out 
And find someone, I guess

I need to get someone 
This helplessness hurts 
Need someone to wash
And to iron my shirts

To clean all the windows
And vacuum and dust
Be able to cook
Is a definite must

Someone who’ll polish
And clean out the shower
Someone, who will charge
Less than five pounds an hour

Cleansing

Cleansing

A new start
That is what one needs
To continue their part
After their bad deeds
You need to clean out
Wipe out the nastiness
Get rid of it in one bout
Until perfect cleanliness
Get it all out from you
You don’t want it inside
You do with that cue
Empty your insides outside
Into the swirling monsoon
That is in front of you, so long, too soon

Premium Member Celebrate


Mow your lawn, swim in the pool!
This is the weekend for all of you.
Fly a kite, go jogging?
Have dinner in a romantic place.
Seventh Heaven!
Go to a ballgame, clean out your garage.
Above all, this is Lord's Day, either
Saturday or Sunday.
So it's more than OK to get off line and
Honor your sweetheart, husband or wife.
               Love, Panagiota

Listen Carefully

His whispers are drastic, continuous, and cruel.
Shutting them out is like, fighting a duel.
A challenge we know, God wants us to fight, to let his words bring back that eternal light.
Singing praises, shouting the news, that Jesus is coming, and there's no time to lose.
Clean out the clutter, that is set in your mind, and allow your heart time to unwind.
Shout to the world that God's love is real, step out on faith and let yourself be reveled.

Peach Splatter

Please take me to the hospital
My innards are coming out by the handfuls
The dog has chewed my brains 
I can't think clearly

Wash me, or recover me soon!
I look a mess, don't let anyone see me like this!!
Please clean out from under me
A rare bacteria has begun to grow down there!

Who let the little monster color on me?
I was such a delicate fabric
Royal lineage you know
No one will ever respect me now!!
I want another family!!

Have a dam good cry, clean out your drawers today,

Drag yourself out of bed, admit you have the blues
