Premium Member Birds-of-Paradise

When some Birds-of-Paradise sit to dine,
they may eat a fruit like a clementine.
Others prefer an insect to a plant,
favoring a futilely praying mantis.

Premium Member Whispering Ferns

Mile high bracken upon the Beacon
Under a clementine moonlight,
In shadows drifting to and fro
Like the tide upon the silken sea.

Premium Member Gambling Clementine

she loses a lot, my ex-friend Dot
a barefaced poker player
but stop she cannot

she has lost her house
she has lost her mind
she has lost her family,
Gambling Clementine

Premium Member The Sky

The sky dims with bittersweet, tangerine, clementine and peach.
Strokes intricate and broad, intimate and inclement brushed on.
As creative as DNA, each day a corpus canvas.

Premium Member Fruit Salad

My darling Clementine
Thought you were a satsuma
Or maybe mandarin
Did not mean to presume a
Variety, you cutie
Ambrosia made with halos
By whatever name you go
You orange little beauty

Premium Member I Will Take That Frog

I have a frisky frog on my back the flamingo whined.
He jumped on last night when I went out to dine.
I wish I had one lamented Old Maid Clementine.
She had been a floozy in her day, and she knew how to grind.

No Problem When You Pour Your Emotions Out

It is okay to sob sometime, when i find the sky above my head is not clementine. It is pouring love by shedding little and crying. My heart is beating little more and feeling divine.  Missing him like i am no more mine.

Premium Member why is this plant so mean

there was a maniacal purple plant in my garden with teeth
She bit me when I walked down the path, every single time
I asked why, and she hit me with a snake underneath
Not a very nice plant, said my cousin, Clementine

Dance the breeze

Premium Member Old West Crush

brilliance bona fide in redolent skies
keen red submerging, clementine twilight
sunflowers show-offs of the waning sun
wedged within burnt orange escarpments
swifts of volcanic horizon in desert crags
old West crush corralled in surround-hugs

Premium Member Irish Piglet Fine

we pearl like pink carnations welcomed the Irish piglet fine
He had travelled to our village through the Eager Emerald mine.
His magic tricks were amazing, his positivity a light to shine.
He uplifted the whole village and eloped with piglet Clementine.

Premium Member Clever Clementine

the birds are foul, they always follow the dumbest bird he told me and mine.
One of my children decided to fool the fowl, her name is Clever Clementine.
She put on a beak hat, and pretended to be a bird, of the very interesting kind.
They followed her up and down hills while she laughed and pantomimed.

Who Will Buy My Sweet Red Roses

Red roses with a calling card were mine,
    For my shrinking violet Clementine.
    While inviting her for lunch,
    I was beaten to the punch.
    Now she's somebody else's Valentine.

    Sponsor. Andrea Dietrich.
    Contest. Roses are red violets are blue.
    A Valentine challenge.

Premium Member Say Hello To Clementine

an unassuming stack of mellow brie
dark succulent grapes with a shine
two crystal goblets without water spots
large bottle of Chardonnay wine

he wants to take her off to a villa
Where he hopes to “make her mine”
his mother packs chicken and homemade bread.
She throws in two red roses. Say hello to Clementine.

Premium Member fishing for an angel

she had a goal, attached to her one-track mind
Could not be dissuaded, our Clementine
She put a fishing rod and reel together
And went out to fish in Christmas weather

Why is she using a star for bait?
This was asked by our good friend Nate.
She’s fishing for an angel for the Christmas tree
What do you suggest her bait should be?

Premium Member Everybody Loves My Baby

Everybody loves my baby
She’s so sweet and she’s so fine
Everybody loves my baby
The one I call Clementine

We go dancing every Friday
When the lights are turned down low
Impossible grooves then there take
Us on the dance floor all aglow

We go where the music makes us
Out of time and out of space
Everybody loves my baby
As she melts in my embrace.

Feed Your Body Well

"Feed Your Body Well" is a children's song, sung to the tune of "Oh, My Darling, 
Clementine".

Feed your body, feed your body, 
Feed your body well each day.
Feed it lots of fruits and veggies
But from candy-stay away!

with little nutritional value, such as candy, cookies and cake).

Oh My Sweetheart, Clementine

Oh my sweet love, Clementine
I remembered when you were fine
But now you are lost for eternity
And you will no longer be with me

I miss your kisses and your face
I miss the way you lightened up the place
But now you’re very deep under water
All because you were no swimmer

Oh my sweetheart, Clementine
Do you remember when I was fine?
I drank some pills, though I was healthy
And now I have you right beside me
