Honey I'M Ready ***

Honey Im ready

      Wordplay is foreplay
       a nimble tongue reaches deep
         to coax and caress

Parade Clown

A guzzler from Lollapalooza
just joined the parade - P. J. Sousa.
    ‘twixt his  trombone and feet
    he's a trifle off-beat 
The cops coax him "off" to their cruiser.

Soothing Summer

A summer breeze revives the mind as worldly cares are left behind
And gentle waves of lapping seas coax weary bodies to unwind.

Premium Member This is What Treason Looks Like

Now there once was a man called Obama
who did more grievous harm than Osama.
   At Hillary’s coax
   they conspired a hoax
so coming your way is some bad karma!

Hoax

HOAX
Sometimes love is purely a malicious hoax
There is no fire so there is no smokes
Are you thinking about how to coax
This is the last of the series of bloody jokes

Premium Member Has Anyone Seen Sam's Toupee

Poor Sam is sans his beloved toupee

   It was snatched from his scalp one windy day

      'Twas last seen sailing o'er town

         Sam trying to coax it down

            If found call Sam - a bounty he will pay

Premium Member if these raccoons were crows

Raccoons are in the ceiling having a whale of a time
They raided the kitchen and stole molasses and thyme
We cannot get up there, it is an enormous climb
If they were glitzy-loving crows, we could coax them down with a dime.

Premium Member November Stones

Tease, tempt, coax and cajole till purchased
And wrench the hearts of young and old
Blaze seated on rings and chains
As though culled from hot sun
In Shades bright or light
Red, blue, green, pink
Topaz stones
Glint like
Stars

Premium Member Whatnots

Whims flash into his mind
Wading of artist eyes
White of a blank canvas
Whatnots need to be birthed
Waving avant-garde brush
Winter spreads like icing
Wide bunny ears coax snow

How To Coax a Hoax

How To Coax A Hoax

There are many ways we along can coax,
Things that  have appeared to be a hoax;
Brain disolved,
When involved,
So played around with by giving it pocks.

MSNBC was talking about a hoax so I
wrote this.

Premium Member A Push In My Pen

There's a push in my pen 
   a coax in my keyboard
A prod 'cross my fingers
   a poke 'top my brain

Each sentence hides muscles
   nudging stanzas to bustle 
One poem's done, here comes the next
   press down on the keys, produce the text

PACT


Purge that vain voice so grace may show,
Act with clear choice with faith that glows;
Coax that fine poise to sense true hope,
Thrill edges noise as love greets flow.

Play

push and play
tease and toy
break through my shell
make me come out
show me what I miss
what I could have
coax me 
get me to play
tease me and see my joy
watch me become me
with out inhibitions
teach me to play agin
and you'll see how I was
before all the fears

A Prologue To Phase Iii

Dearest Vicar –
As a poet’s lines: 
It is divinity proper!

Onions figure
In our everlasting divinings:
Her white ashes
Of our burn-fire 
And the dew of dawn’s tears
Still coax the rainbow 
To no avail

Her white ashes
Splashing wet-dusts of dark days:
Cocks crow in vain?

Premium Member Spring Flower

midst winter's branches
a tiny green bud appears...
heralding springtime

sunshine will coax it
to become lovely flower...
to wear in spring's hair

Premium Member The Hiding Sun

As the sun hides behind thick clouds The roosters try to crow it out But that sun is not very proud As the sun hides behind thick clouds The Doves coo a love song aloud Try to coax it without a doubt As the sun hides behind gray clouds The roosters try to crow it out

A Bright Smile

I have a bright smile
And my eyes do twinkle
it's so easy and fun.
to make people wonder
As to what I have done.

Laughter and quick wit 
I also possess,
So much pleasure I get
When a smile or a giggle 
I do coax.

Just giving some fun
On a Tuesday,
Some ones blues day
But not mine.

Nude On a Leopardskin Rug

She’s a nude on a rug made of skin 
Big and busty, inviting you in
With those come hither eyes
And her nutcracker thighs
Resistance would be such a sin

A temptress with ruby red lips
Enormous and thunderous hips
Should she coax you inside
You will get such a ride
Just be sure to hang on to your pips

Premium Member A Very Savvy Nurses Aide

Two nurses and a doctor try to coax me into a wheelchair.
I sit firmly, hard, arms crossed, not doing it no matter what.
A nurse's aide comes in. She says "Therapy dog is down at X-ray today."
I jump into that wheelchair like the bed was on fire, and away we go.
No dog in sight, but a very savvy nurse's aide.

Premium Member Forever Changed

Other people’s nightmares and night terrors do not interest me
Or persuade, coax or encourage me to have my own.
I refuse to acknowledge their existence.
Others tell me cryptic tales, sharing morbid woes.
I slumber as peacefully as a newborn colt
Dreaming of the good life
A bobcat’s scream changes me forever

Premium Member not helpful honey

My dog smells like sewer
He runs toward me like a freight train
Jumps into my recliner and lollygags all over me

Now we both smell like sewer
I coax him into the bathroom
He is stronger than I am

No way I am getting him into the tub
my husband is yelling not to let him stay in the house
help I do not need

Premium Member Afraid of Rejection

I quietly profess my love, silently, eternally
She is timid, shy, afraid of being rejected.
Alone, she skittles into the shadows of fear.
I attempt to coax her out, but she stays safe.
I have not yet met the right guy, apparently
When I do, I am sure she will ease out,
Fearless and assertive; that is what love does, right?
