My beautiful Granddaughter Daphne
You make me so very happy
You are growing each day
Which makes me very happy I say
Grandma loves you
Hugs and kisses too

who loved you more
than our dog
 Daphne

I am full of poems
and insecurity

life is more than marks,
and conclusions,

this life was meant 
to be

I didn’t mean to rhyme
for you 
and me

Who are they to convince

Daphne wants her dreams tweaked
Angeline has unresolved Father Daughter
relationship issues
Betty has had a small op
but now only wants friends
Who  are they trying to kid ?
with this talk of  personal salvation

Daphne Blake was getting ready for a party Wearing her new dress, she wished to look smarty. Exposing her buttocks, she appeared so tarty She revelled, not knowing she would soon fall into a trap dirty

Premium Member Green Collar on a Grey Dog

Come on, Daphne! 
We’re walking!” 
This is the best part
of both of our days

Our lives are in the steps
Daphne and I take, 
everyday 

You first, 
my light-footed queen

Watching you, 
undeniably alive, 
enjoying the best 
the world has to offer
makes my life

My life.

Premium Member Let me tell you about Daphne

Daphne got stuck 
under the bed,
and then…
I had to get her out 
from under the bed,
my dumb ass dog. 

A tug of war, 
paws and whining 
ensued…

and then,,,,
I won. 

Someone 
had an accident.

Someone 
was hiding. 

After the battle…
we had a discussion 
about going under the bed.

Sexy Redhead

Daphne, I love you
in your purple dress
You're my favourite of the gang
to that I must confess
Your blonde friend just makes traps
and the brainy one is nerdy
The canine and the skinny one
eat huge burgers quite insanely
Your role is kind of quirky
but you're prettier than the others
I don't know who to thank for that
perhaps the animators

Daphne Odora 

Dainty Daphne costumed in purest white
Through winter’s darkest days shares her blooms
Wears a satin gown to the ice moon’s delight
Small nosegay clusters share intoxicated perfume.

Daphne sings in winterfests of raucous snows
Evergreen, her smiles warm winterbound showers
January’s merry child surely knows
She lifts the heart through every frigid hour.

Premium Member Winter Serenade

winter serenade

winter serenade
 frozen crystal melodies ~
  red cardinal chants

leafless boughs sing out
 arias of roaring storms ~
  snowdrops harmonize

blasts of icy frost
 chanting plaintive elegies ~
  daphne flowers bloom

short days intone night
 with a solstice lullaby ~
  fir trees wear white stoles

shadows of springtime
 creep into amber twilights ~
  bears snore rhythmic dreams

Daphne Has No Plans To Cry

Daphne has no plans to cry:
She shall another man try:
Not The Old with hairs to dye
Nor One others think might die…

Asking she has been: Why? Why?
She never for once did lie
To Mac with his Spurious Love;
Mic Mac to Pranks not above…

Mac, who’d call her Animal,
Twelve Times just The Minimal



Daphne would not dare to wait
For another on This Weight 
Nor would she for same sigh
The Voice for Sighs never high…

Now, Daphne for Rebellion 
Of an Ill-Used Battalion!
