A pirates life is the one for me,both of us sailing on the seven seas,finding treasure,stealing gold,story’s of our life at sea to be told..skull and crossbones scarves on our heads,searching for treasure along the sea bed,I wouldn’t want it any other way,a pirate forever I will always stay

My ballot arrived in the mail
Like a skull & crossbones in gaol
But what gets my goat
If I do not vote
Then the GOP will prevail*
*For the Trumps to escape prosecution,
only the number of Republicans
elected to Congress matters;
quality, issues, and the future of
the USA are irrelevant to the GOP!

Limerick
The rose is full the emblem
of the thief, skull and crossbones
the compositor of grief;
love purloins the heart,
envy steals the soul
and darkness shrouds the day.
Life is hard and comedy is tough,
euphoria is hard to take;
to break the bond of sorrow
means an effort of the will,
once overcome the sun's caress
will bless your window sill.

Life is hard and comedy is tough,

once overcome a sweet caress
will bless your days and nights.

Life is hard and tragedy is tough,
downheartedness is hard to take;

once overcome the sun's caress
will bless your window sill!

Skull and crossbones bag
Filled with delicious candy
Sitting on the porch
Where orange wreath lies on door
Looks inviting to the young
Decorations sit
Abounding the well-lit porch
Carved smiling pumpkins
And spider webbing around
And small orange lights on fence
Not very scary
As young children run about
Simply beautiful
This concoction of delight
Bringing around a mild fright

Curious cats and plebian pirates do not mix well.
When white skull and crossbones are flying lopsided.
Derelict dogs and wily witches try casting a spell.
My imagination is being ridiculously overexcited.
My muse is throwing in damsels, dragons and robins gray
Along with Christmas tree ants and squirrels that play
I hear her deep heartfelt languishing sighs of dismay
As she tries to control me yet again today.

I’ll be around as long as canto lasts.
The beat of drum, a naked blast of sweat.
My skirt, a round, chases the breathless casts
of oxygen - the faces red - oh my -
and so is mine. The passion fire. I sigh…
Of sticks and stones that create hate - my bones
do ache and amplify sensuous zones.
The opera, unusual, its drums
that speak of life and death - skull and crossbones.
When the fat lady rests, my heart succumbs.

On a ship showing a skull and crossbones
A brutal pirate decides on whom he shall prey
The years have not been easy for ships in these waters
For the pirates
take no prisoners
Gold and silver is what those rogues want
and they get them through fear and sharp swords
So take care when you pass into waters
where pirates hold sway
For they are merciless and strong
They have no sense or concern
for the sanctity of human life

Blank verse
The greatest showman came to town
Completing verbal acrobatics.
Taming verbs into free verse.
He made us laugh and made us cry
He made us feel alive.
When the greatest showman came to town.
Turning words into sonnets.
Juggling lines into epic ballad’s.
To woo us with his words of wisdom.
Performing prose to epic levels.
Then a flood light falls on the showman
As he announces the star performance.
It’s john lindley reciting, Love and crossbones .

The harbingers of spring are long forgotten
now rise the specters of summer's end
and the fodder of the misbegotten
call forth spirits of the psyche to ascend.
Come skeletal images and visionary scarecrows
creep along the evening shadows
hiding in the pale moonlight glow
bringing the macabre wherever it goes.
The crimson orange, the blood red rose,
the blackened corpse, screeching tones
rattle on with each step taken and posed
bring on the costume halloweenie crossbones.
