The anvil wallows on his heart
His dreams, trodden, alas depart
Pride triggers a cursory front
The fierce justification hunt
He steps to nowhere from the start

Verse
A simple note for your natal anniversary
Would be no more then simply just cursory.
Yes, a word or two to wish to you
A happy birthday just wouldn't do
So I simply wrote for you this little verse, you see?

Limerick
Her pregnancy was like an open book
quite readable with just a cursory look.
She wore a gown that trailed in white
and grinned a guiltless smile as bright.
And why not, white was only a tradition,
her virginity a sold out first edition.

Light Verse
i get you,
your obscure words
meaning the world to me.
your innocence
very dear to me.
yes i get you…
meanwhile,
my cursory mind
rests at the feet of forbearance
misfit to feel your longing.
i hold back
for my strictures are strong.
but i feel it,
the intense you.

you never know...
these breaths we breathe
may be our last
so let's linger over
this goodbye kiss and hold fast
a while more
no cursory peck barely
finding its mark
no air embrace
leaving no scent
no, let us linger over this kiss
and hold fast a while longer
these breaths we breathe
may be our last...
we never know

An interlude of spawned achieve
I felt some cursory, like a thief
had stolen my domain, my chief -
while watching rivers flow, bereaved!
Not war - not other answers brief
not ideology's retrieve,
and for some languoring, I did receive
that love as innocent life's conceive.
How solemn that all time believes ...
while man takes armor, as his leave!

Inordinate
Construction terminology limits interaction and
Obstinate theory considered heating
Cursory exam investigates
Finance
While article confides in history
Another letters still
Placement of interaction causes excess time?
Employees are not in a large building
Only resolved in exposure to smaller liens
Stocks and Bonds are Complexity

I know
this is not the world of my dreams,
But now that I am here
I'll hang around for a while.
I was just passing through
and thought I'll drop in
and say hello.
I cast
a cursory glance at the world,
found no soulmate
found no kindred spirit…
So I toss
a shroud over me
and I go!

TODDLER CLUB
Higgledy Piggledy, here we sit
All are fidgeting just a little bit
And a giggle, however cursory
We are all here at the nursery
Look around, to left and right
Try smiling, and they just might
Waving your hand to say hello
It isn’t so long now until we go
Then all of us can say goodbye
Until tomorrow, but me oh my
If left here alone, I’ll be in a fix
To sit alone among these bricks

To you my love I do propose
Cursory couplets to compose.
What sort of short verse would you hear
In short iambic rhyme my dear:
Coupled couplets in a couplet?
Coupled cutlets in a couplet?
Or perhaps a brace of bears bare?
Perhaps a pair of pears to pare?
Surely none, you have too much sense
As such poetry gives offense.

Couplet
everywhere I try to walk
The cement is dirty
With the most outrageous talk
Slang here
F YOU's there
Mothers on the street
Obscenities everywhere
The thrill is lude
Trying hard to be rude
I am a Hyprocrite nitwit
it's so easy to conclude
The Cross around me
But my mouth needs some soap
Heckling and swearing
How can my ideology hope to cope
My own word
a cursory absurd
when will I sleep
and people stop calling me a nerd

I do not know?
It begins with a cursory glance
Long before the beguiling smile
Or the girlish giggle,
Or the flick of the head
That makes her hair dance
Somewhere between the appraisal of a shapely leg
And the curiosity of what lay hidden
And you are smitten
And while your defences are down
It tiptoes into your heart almost unnoticed
It whispers into your brain.
And touches your soul
Then you are in love
And lost to reason
All for the glance of a shapely leg

FOND MEMORIES
My thoughts brown
Even though they’ve watered through a period
Of bloom
A period of greens
Not until when the final byes were said.
In my sofa I seek answers
Taking a cursory sweep down memory lane
When we sat laughed, danced and drank
Today all is but history
Save for the large frame on the wall
Telling me that you are very much with me.
In it I see your smiles,
Your feminine gait
So full of live
This is what keeps me alive
You will always remain part of my world.

My missing gloves turned up today
(Good thing – I was distraught)
Inside the pockets of a jacket
I forgot I bought.
The lesson of this incident
Is that we really ought
To leave no stone unturned
Until we find what we have sought.
A search that’s merely cursory
Will yield, as wisdom’s taught,
A disappointing outcome,
All your efforts come to naught.
But diligence will show results
That laziness has fought,
So “seek and ye shall find” remains
A wise and prescient thought.
