MEN AND WOMEN
Some men prefer violence
Some prefer violins
Some women want to be chased
Others want to be chaste
For evermore I will repent
For not having saved a cent
For my retiring aging years.
For spendthrift ways I am in tears
Sliding down the slope,
Looking like a dope,
Slipping through the trees,
Skidding on my knees,
Wish I'd worn my skis.
Through sand and haze beach goers stroll
Leaving footprints where soft crested waves roll

I like to chuckle, laugh or smile,
As being glum just aint my style.
21st August for Seren’s What Makes You Tick contest
The empty page of an old sage is what needs to be filled.
To instill peace and then engage in what should not be killed.
With hat in hand the truth arrives
Too tired for much ado
They tell us now that grandpa Joe
Had something worse than flu

there is beauty
as far or near as
the eye can see
sometimes we have to
close our eyes and
open our minds
to see it.
Hello To you, fellow
Please, open your
Heart's window.
Rita Solis Radius. My ten-word poem! Tuesday, June 3 rd 2014.
The spear passed through my heart
His words like a dart
Blood oozed
Pain profuse
My hand limp
I let go off the wimp
The Chinese are going for bagels
The Jews head out for won ton
I really am not quite sure anymore
Which side I am on!
One of science does not argue with scientific theory,
they work towards proving right or wrong for the truthful reality.
may I introduce a novel verse
with just two lines I must inevitably be terse
9 syllables line 1
13 syllables line 2
My name, William A Cleator, sounds like a stuffed shirt to me,
but Billy TheKidster sounds like a lot more fun possibly.
He stands out there all day
Strums the guitar for his pay
Your portfolio's grown fat
Put a couple bucks in his hat
Praises ever singing
of his upbringing
nestled
in the arms
of a family farm
vanishing charms
When a loved one is lost I don't grieve, I just feel numbness.
I believe that it is nature's way of expressing kindness.
It's high time we, humans, learn the valuable lessons,
of taking care of our Earth, before the situation worsens!!
Old Uncle Jack while sampling the fine cooking of his still,
Was knocked out cold by the cast iron skillet of Aunt Jill.
But to those who did accept him he gave power to become children of God
to those who believe in his name [JN 1:12]
It's 12:02 pm and I've got to reach up to touch bottom.
Doing so I grab the ankle of a leper which is no help at all.
Oh hermit, etch these words of wisdom on stone ~
All conflicts must be resolved by love alone

The Endymion to my Selene, as he was always so endearing.
Even to this day, in my world of dreams, he is still haunting.
