IF YOU COME ACROSS A FROG,
IN A SWAMPY BUGGY BOG...
AND, YOU ARE A BIG HORSE FLY...
YOU WILL GET SLURPED UP AS YOU GO BY.

Trump On a Scooter

Trump On A Scooter

While Trump rode on a scooter,
He had come across a computer;
Quite confused,
And misused;
A detective looking for a looter.

COCKROACH LOVERS

Mind:

If: you ever come across a cockroach lover, avoid them like mad
They are either so very weird or very desperately lonely and sad

Problem

Once and awhile we come across a problem,
it takes control of us,
depresses us.
Some how we come through,
we solve it,
show it that it wont disturb us any more.
we are strong,
and always will be.

Doug Jones Came Across

While visiting Senate we came across,
Doug Jones from Alabama a new boss;
We were impressed,
With way he dressed;
Competitor impostor was a complete loss.

Premium Member Misfortune

There aren't many chances for misfortune to come across the path of the wise

For his concern is spirituality that his soul him with it preoccupies!

I'M Happy

I may seem like a fool to you , 
Not as perfect as she is, 

I have my flaws,
I have my weaknesses, 
I may come across as a bore to you, 

Yet, 
Here I stand as happy as can be,

Imperfect I shall be, 
Happy never less.

Through Those Travels

Through those travels 
You may come across troubled waters 
Continue to sail 
And do not falter 
Go through the challenge 
Carry out your mission 
Do not ever give in 
Battle until you reach your final destination

Todays World

Why do we need so many objects
when we are born with all our needs
Ive come across a building
made from all our greed 
I cant say that I am not one of them
I cant say that you are
but we have come along way
why is this so hard.

Changes By Age

Changes by age
The older i get
The more experience 
I come across

The more experience 
I come across 
The more i learn 
In life 

So is not a guarantee 
To remain same 
As long as time goes
There is always 
Changes by age

Dear grey sky

The sky is grey
This feeling come across me
Another day
Trapped into my mind
Could I skip this journey
So I could wake up on a sunny morning
And pretend that I'm okay
But for now
I'll let the sky ruin me and pray
For better days

Premium Member Killing Time

what are you
a butcher
an assassin
are you kidding me

you nonchalantly
say you’re
just killing time

do you not see
it’s criminal
you’ll never come across
anything more valuable
than the precious
gift of time

Beautiful Puzzle

You are a snowflake
that glitters in the summer Sun.

You are a red rose that blooms
in the midst of a desert.

Beauty and strength go hand
in hand with you; no woman 
I have ever come across
with nature such as yours.

You are a beautiful puzzle.....

Premium Member Pigeon Hole Takes On New Meaning

the term pigeon hole takes on a whole new meaning 
when you come across a round hole in a fence
and a beautiful blue gray pigeon is staring at you through it
this fowl brazenly stares at me through his peep hole
not caring that he is making me feel uncomfortable

A Lost Pathway

Somewhere along the path of fate
I come across a chain linked gate
Someplace someone is calling
My thoughts and emotions are falling
I cry, I whimper, I lose my mind
Nothing here, nothing to find
Pain and sorrow enter my heart
I cannot end what I did not start...

As the Ship Sails

As the ship sails
There may be rough seas
Continue to make adjustments
As you come across the whistling breeze
The journey will be tough
You may find yourself going through treacherous terrain
Rise up through the atmosphere
There is still knowledge for you to gain

Truly Yours

" Truly Yours"

                    " Could you ever thought two dreamers living
                  separate lives would come across each other
                  and find out she can't be...
                                                                      Truly Yours"

Premium Member she was artificially unnatural

she was artificial
a counterfeit human being
her phoniness is unreal
uncalled for and unnecessary
there is an unnatural feeling about her
her words come across as lies
she is stiff, unkind and unbending
something horrible must have happened to her
at one time or another

A Wishful Encounter

You come across

the streets of

my mind ,softly,

a tender arrival,

I welcome you. 

Relieved to 

relive you again

We speak of things 

missed in between

the silence in years

we never spoke

made up in 

a memory

a wishful encounter

I imagine

it would be.

Karma

I tie myself to you
But the ropes begin to burn our skin…
I hold you above the water,
But my grip begins to slip…
I try to save you from you’re a demons,
Though I’m a demon myself. 
My meaningful words,
That I so often come across 
Of I love you
Begin an avalanche 
Of distress and misery.
