Cheese Wars

The Edam's sailing through the air,
and Cheddar skims my head,
I duck to miss the Danish Blue,
but Brie hits me instead.

Premium Member Danish and Fart

There was a certain shopper at Walmart
Who would order a Danish and fart---
   But his diarrhea
   Gave him an idea--- 
He'd package and sell it as 'Cherry Tart'

Peasant

Step forward step forward you peasant you.
Time to chop off your head and lay you to bed, six feet under is where you will be 
all because you dropped my Danish on me!

dawn’s silky sweet start
        light puffy sugar skies blush…
            taste until scene fades

Muddy Funny Bunny

Hurry, hurry, hurry
Funny bunny plays
Windy sunny field

Muddy small silly
Feels guilt
Feels sorry

Mummy still loves 
Muddy funny bunny

Mermaid

I become a real
mermaid by your side, but just
like in that danish 

fairy-tale, I shed 
no tear when I cry; make no 
sound when my heart is

broken; smile when I
dance on razorblades of your 
human love; cease to

exist by turning
to sea foam when the love of 
yours toward me is no more.

Premium Member Baked Temptresses

They tease me, 
Vying for my attention
Behind the bakery display case. 

Voluptuous, some bursting with fruit, 
The brazen, the coquettish, 
They tease me.

Which to pick?
The Austrian strudel or Danish
Vying for my attention?

Impetuously taking her
In my car, from 
Behind the bakery display case.

Nonsense

This daily dew danish blue doggy poo
Is in relation to a giant kangaroo
Which traveled to the capitol of Peru
To try the turkey stew
But the beef fondue gave it a purplish blue stomach flu
It tried to renew tried to review 
When it sailed through the thick shampoo
It fell into a field of glue and ran into a bomber crew

Second Class

I feel greater inside
 I know it’s safer to hide , as the strange car arrive 
From an angle I know what is most dangerous 
I’m anxious for pie 
Supper a danish 
Surprise I thought famous 
Was actually my god 
Every time we ate from the fruit 
We waited for our clothes to dry 
In that pool with people who had proof of the fountain of youth

Danish Married To a Scottish

The Woman is A Danish 
And married to A Scottish
But often heard in English:
Language she speaks with relish…

But the Rather Stand-Offish:
At times slippery like  Fish
Or like things one wouldn’t wish,
For example Leaf-Filled Dish
To be served Vegetarian 
Or Flesh to a Barbarian…

A Thief-Catching Librarian
And Confirmed True Lutheran!

Prince Philip, Duke of Edinburgh

Goodbye, Prince Philip, husband of the Queen, age ninety-nine.
Thank you, for giving up prince hood from Greek and Danish lines.
Thank you, Royal Navyman, for setting prisoners free;
thanks for wildlife protection and awards as D of E.

Season Time

Daisy, Lilac, Roses bloom
Ripen fruit, green trees
Clean house, fresh scent 
Sugar bunny, candy sweet 

Beach party
Sweet fried foods
Dance songs, music beats
River water, kayak rowed 

Dried trees
Carve meats
Scary story
Trick, Treat

Small gifts
Sings carol 
Shiny light
Snowy night

Five Letter Words

Humpty Dumpty poems wrote,
Whose words could never sound right.
Johny wrote songs,
Whose words could never dance. 
Tried verse Ramrv, 
Whose words could sense never carry.
Could never catch words right:
Tried, tried, tried.
Tired, tired, tired!

Soul Food

Bagels and baguettes
Bap or fried bake,
The fruits of the flour
are easy to make

Chollah, chapatti, 
Cinnamon bun.
These global delights,
make eating such fun.

Filled with Caribbean sweet meat
like Guava jam,
Scottish smoked salmon; 
Or Danish roast ham.

Add a fresh fruit salad,
Some sparkling wine,
A candle, red roses and  
you’re ready to dine.

Seeds start petal grows
Beats heart winds blows 

Birth begin fresh souls 
Dance elkin storm rolls

Teens dwell learn quick 
Adult excel passe chick

Older comes elder bring
Lifes drums death sting

Lives reset cycle renew
Plant hopes dream adieu

Grain sough alive chose
Seeds start petal grows

Chachuma

Trochaic Pentameter

We camped by Chachuma Lake near Solvang.
Danish village we would visit real soon.
Sitting close that night to fire's warmth we sang.
Sky was showing many lights with bright moon.
Stores in quaint town sold gifts for this fine June,
tourists needed only make requests clear.
My girl wanted silver souvenir spoon,
something she said she'd would cherish most dear.

Barack Obama
Smiled like a llama
Posing next to the Danish Prime Minister
For a funeral selfie – how sinister!

A look from Obama Michelle
Which clearly read: what the hell!
Of all humans and aliens
I am stuck with a fomo sapiens.

Freely Versed Breakfast Muse

Black coffee for sunny mornings and hangovers,
or with the rich cream of a female ungulate caregiver.
A quick Danish for the tardy to arrive,
crispy bacon for first responders.
Duck fat in the skillet fry’s anything better -
let’s it slide off a plate.
Wipe tongues with Oolong,
Be sure to keep a store of nuts and berries.
Chocolates and red wine restores blasé taste buds.
Keep writing love menus.

Premium Member Breakfast At Denny's

Two fried eggs I’ll have with cheddar cheese,
hash browns and some bacon on the side!
Would you make the bacon crispy please?
Two fried eggs I’ll have with cheddar cheese.
That lovely pastry also- such a tease -
looks like the Danish which last time I tried!
Two fried eggs I’ll have with cheddar cheese,
hash browns and some bacon on the side.

Five Letter Words

Words craft magic,
Magic makes folks happy

Words paint scene,
Scene calms tired souls

Words build faith,
Faith gives super power

Words amend heart,
Heart halts timid pause

Words alter minds,
Minds change awful ideas

Words jawed after anger,
ought never annoy folks

 Avoid harsh words 
Savvy words worth
