Charlie and Marley maculate giraffe
Looking immaculate with a soft laugh
Dinner at Bread and Butter
Had their stomach a flutter
Through the window they ate shocking the staff

Dine And Dash

Dine and dash with your head in the window 
Stretch your long neck and bend like a willow 
No one's looking, take your time 
Outdoor eating's not a crime 
And the lone master is an old widow
fun

                Of course, Dine and Dash don't say no
                Takeaway meals too good to go
                A perfect restaurant
                even to an aged aunt
                Not a profitable portfolio

Quatrain #640:
DASH


Dazzle dream day in happy poise,
Attest to play as zest shapes choice;
Sensuous sight stays to fashion verse,
Heed then the way to live fond voice.

Point To Be Noted
Q.If some women say we want to go to Mosque or Golden temple in bikini would that be OK?
Ans.No,because that place is not their property.Sure women can wear anything in public place but not those places which requires dress code.

DASH


Dream of grand show in that sure light,
Apt cheer now flows with grace most bright;
Sense poise that knows how wonder feels,
Heart and mind grow such dashing sights.

Premium Member Do Not Dash

Love doesn't dash, it loiters - 
with repeated movements like music 
and beautifully crude endearments. 

Love does't dash, it lingers 
with rhythms like dance
and boastfully rude aphorisms. 

So dally my love - lollygag, 
lounge and we'll share breaths
and mess about.

love doesn’t dash, it loiters
with repeated movements like music
and beautifully crude endearments

love doesn’t dash, it lingers
with rhythms like dance?
and boastfully rude aphorisms

So dally with me my love
lollygag, lounge and in a while
we'll share breaths and mess about

Premium Member Dine and Dash

People dine, I know I know
they also die
mostly old people
I know
there seems no fixed rule
to this dance with death
I do not like this one bit
or if dining, I don't like it one bite
I am alive yet I think I am dead
there is no reason for it all
smiles only bleed
now I dine alone
there is, no where to dash

I No Longer Like Nash

I no longer like Nash,
At him teeth gnash;
A chance and his head bash
For being grossly rash
In his spending of cash
Over a bought sash

All his reasons “Thrash”
To him like a child trash!

I shall no longer see Nash,
For it shall end in a crash,
Now quite sure he’s brash…

Indeed, this way Nash
To another I’ll dash!

Premium Member dollop of this and dash of that

I never measure or use a straight edge
Ruler? Measuring cup? I scoff at these tools.
I approximate everything that I do.
That is why I am a folk artist, not a fine artist.

I cook with total imprecision too
Guesswork is my best friend
I toss in a dollop of this and a dash of that
My husband runs when he sees my surprise casseroles.

Dine and Dash

Disappointment doesn't even
Summarize you. 

How awful can this
Really get? 

With mazes and mirrors
shattered, bleeding
my skin right onto the 
Floor. 

In the blink of an 
Eye I aspire to leave 
This ridiculousness. 

Instant satisfaction
Could not come any sooner. 

As I retreat into 
Your ignorance 
I will be leaving
you soon. 

Check please.

Dash In All Walks of Life

D-ash in all walks of life, 
I-nfluence with vibrant presence; 
A-im and strive to win, 
N-ever think of 
A-bsence. 

L-earn beyond your years, 
A-ppreciate things to be humble; 
N-ourish your friendly relation; 
D-ynamism leads to your goal. 
E-ndure the difficult journey, 
R-ugged wind, and strife, 
O-n the second of September, dash in all walks of life.

Kash, among hyphens a dash

Indians have been making big splash,
And now there’s this Patel called Kash.
What, never heard of him?
He heads FBI team,
In highly-held hyphens, big dash,
One subsists or just leaves,
He in himself believes,
And tries once again all afresh.

Bespatter me Dash,
Run a short race.
Throw a little somethin
In the mix.

I hesitate an utterance 
And drop a soupcon
In parenthesis.
I want the dasher
Who plunges 
In the churn.

Signal this dot 
For longer duration,
A bit of adulteration
Under the dashboard.

Bespatter me Dash.
Listen to the sound
Of such splashing.
Let's write and hurry away
Because of a sudden onset,
A stroke, followed by a rush.

A Dash of Dna

A dash of DNA decides
The color of our eyes
And probably our hair and skin
And possibly our size.

Genetics, though, is just a part
Of who we grow to be,
For many other factors count,
Each one to some degree.

Our family life, our neighborhood,
Our friends, religion, schools,
All help determine how we’ll use
Our inborn molecules.

We learn from our experience;
So much of it holds sway
That overall it counts more than
That dash of DNA.

A Dash Of Worcester

A spider dropped into my soup
oxtail it was
with a dash of Worcester
he popped right up 
and made for shore
not too hairy
nor too large
for a heart-beat
I could only stare 
as he bobbed about  
in my bowl of soup
released from my dismay
I reached in with my spoon
scooped him out
and tipped him onto the table
as I watched him scurry away 
all spidey-like
without so much 
as a backward glance
I dearly wished 
that I could speak spider.

Premium Member 50 Yard Dash

Listen to poem:
50 Yard Dash
David J Walker 

Some days life does seem 
Like a marathon 

Dragging on and on
		And on….

Having to go
	Beyond  the

Limits of your endurance 
At best 

Some sort of test
Of what we can take 

Some do and some don’t make
It to the tape set somewhere 

By someone in 
A sloppy foggy future

But now when I look back to rehash
The past 50 years seem more 

Like a 50-yard dash 
That I have been running to

Set a record

Premium Member 'hello Chris' - Dash Or No Dash

Anxious looks and sweaty palms I am sure there is no need for qualms This man might be a mystery Surely there is no need to feel so jittery Eventually he showed up I was staring at him over my coffee cup Nowhere near to what I imagined My mom always said it’s wrong to sit and examine So tell me Chris, should I remove those dashes? Or will my poem end up in ashes? By: Wilma N. Neels

The Dash

The Dash
Your Journey all begins
with a number that
signifies your birth
The other number you receive
is when you depart this earth

But if your living for numbers
you might as well quit
A legacy is not given
it has to be built

In the end
being first and last
will not mean much anyway
What everyone will remember
is the small things you did
from day to day

The dash I speak of
Is not a run or a sprint
It is the symbol for living
and what you life has meant
