Sans Servile
In sang-froid, sass cords:
Sangoma dashes siren,
Thunder crashes trunk;
Sarky banters with lippy.
Spim for Santa maidenhead....

Custodian of Apostrophe's Apostle

Who done it, steed?
Who said what's read
between the lines marked
with ad hoc diacritic dashes?...

Game of Pawns
Dice and pieces, blown on trusses
Numbers and feathers, trots and roaming
Spice with dashes, thrown in sashes
Dots and wreaths, clots and breaths reeming...

Burnout
There was an electrician from Nashes
Who worked in darts and dashes.
One day especially rushed
Against 240 volts he brushed.
Now Nashes is home to his ashes....

Amanda write limericks so darn quick
She just dashes them off lickety-split
  Somehow she gets them to rhyme
  Finishing each one in time
To post them before you can hit 'Submit'...

words words words 
and more words
separated by 
space and time
commas
dots
dashes 
silences and breaths
spoken and written
make as we go
to give meaning to all
the truth
and 
the lies...

Drip Slip Slurp Trip

She came in cold, harsh,
Splashing and crashing

Unannounced, she relishes our mad dashes for
Umbrellas, and coats, freezing us gently

Drip Slip Slurp Trip...

Premium Member she seemed combustible
lightning quick swirls, twirls, dots and dashes flickered and flashed
the gypsy’s frenzied dancing was felt by everyone in the room.
such passion! Such flair, such fire! She seemed combustible....

Your Neighbour Time
The clock, it sings
though it never stops
Time, dashes through,
Your very eyes
Yet you never notice it,
Passing by

Everyday goes,
Never comes back

Comes with a new start
Ends with an old tale...

Premium Member Who Is Listening
People are chattering
I catch glimpses and dashes
Slivers of conversations
A word or two
A phrase that makes no sense
At least seven people are speaking
In a room of ten people
Who is listening?
It is a curiosity...

Sand Dancing
A cloudless blue sky 
Stretches across the atmosphere
As she dances 
Over the white sand warmed by the smiling sun.
Laughing,
 She throws her hands in the air,
Then dashes across the beach
 Towards the sparkling diamond sea....

Tricked
Silently he moves,
secretive by nature,
cautious by design,
startled by sudden movement,
dashes to safety,
watchful in his burrow,
tricked by skeletal shadows
of overgrown grass,
hunger pangs his insides,
ignored,
greater his will to survive....

Freedom
Like ashes to ashes
Or the crushed wings of a moth
My body will wither
Will turn into dust
My soul, worn and tattered
Shall never be shattered
Will shine through the rust
Won’t waver or dither
To break free of all its cloth
It dashes, it dashes...

Springtime
The month of March is a sunshine 
pouring as effervescent vanilla
on through the floral pageantry
of tangerine ever glowing--
sun-kissed a golden yellow,
and dashes of the whispering rain
that spice a chilly earth
to waft springtime's minty aroma....

awakening dreams
     teasing yearning hopes
     of these longing hearts

     morning dashes warmth
     held in desires companion
     from their quiet nests

     in your great wonder
     snooze alarm, return poor souls
     to loves warm embrace...
