My hand gloved in your wrinkles
New discoveries
Starfish, crabs and mermaids purse,
Squirting sea anenomes.

There was indeed a Georgia peach
Who took a licking from a leech
As nudists do
They found a few
Picky crabs all over the beach!

A pail and shovel
Bright red
A castle to build
A moat to fill

Seagulls shriek
Crabs scurry
As tidal creep
Threatens the kingdom

Mostly cost the most of all

Like crabs and snails and lobster claw

Pray the day that prices fall

Controls the conquered thirsty
Combo concentrated cooperation of cubs
Crabs also enjoy the combs of the flavor.

I went to the doctor with crabs
He gave me 380 jabs
To preserve your manly
Stay away from the fanny
Or your bits will be nothing but scabs

Listen to poem:
Wind blew crabs outta their holes.
Hail pelted cars to smash repairs.
Shops clapped shut with thunder rolls.
Spring tripped and fell downstairs.

take some shrimp, crabs, crawdads, clams
and corn on the cob
a lobster and smoke saugage
and boil it for me
spread on a table
say it's done
yes!

Premium Member Crabs

a crab sheds his shell 
          vulnerable for six weeks
a new shell appears

stronger than ever
     he struts across the beach sand
less vulnerable

Gumbo

Sausage, shrimp, okra and rue
    Ingredients stew
Tantalizing onions smell
   Garlic simmers well
Crabs still in the shell
      Chicken too
         Woooo!!
Form: Epulaeryu

The Sea

Look out at the wild blue sea
Waves crashing upon the shore
Seagulls swoop in the air
Fiddler crabs play upon the sand
Children build sandcastles near the waves

Premium Member Pelican Pete

A pelican called Pete, Whom tuna, would not eat; Flew down to hot sand, Some sand crabs to land, Now Pete has some very blistered feet!
Form: Limerick

Tell Me Who, My Beautiful One

What a shock
it was for me to notice
that the seaweeds and mussels
already began to grow 
in your blue eyes,
What sort of crabs dared 
to tell you so many lies?

Crab's Dip

Crabs and Dip will
Really have 
A huge bloody
Banging brawl
Soon and very soon

Dip will be severely
Injured and crawling to
Pray to God that's all.

                             I walk along the white sand

Dirty Minded Fun

Getting crazy at work



We have new little mermaid toys at work.  
I picked up a handful of sebastian ones and said 

I've got crabs

Everyone was shocked and then laughed

Form: Verse

Ripples of the Water

Watch the ripples of the water
The trickles sounding  like laughter
As pebbles tickle its flow

Pools of delight with crabs inside
Limpets clinging on against the tide
Children's faces aglow

What a Crabby Day

To the fish market she'd been fetchin',
    Now her stomach linin' stretchin',
    Must have been the crabs she ate,
Three crustaceans gone from her plate,
        Now poor Grechin's rechin'.

Premium Member Crab Feast (Nonet)

It runs gracefully across the sand 
Feet leaving prints as it passes 
Gracefully moves its own way 
Delicacy for some 
It’s now on the run 
Dashing for hole 
Peppered spice 
It’s hot 
Crabs!
