Declined to accept any calls
A priest said we'll find

Pop Tart
She declined to eat a pop tart
Because all that fruit makes her fart
Yet tends to favour
Raspberry flavour
For rhapsodies straight from the heart...

Too Good To Be True
When I was declined by you
I said I was fine
But I wasn't at first
And it took a long time
But now I realized
It was me not you
That was too good to be true
For you...

Unspoken
she met him online, dreamt of his kiss
on the date she declined, his lipstick too bold

Socializing
He was customarily of pristine attires dispossessed
In his eccentric shabby tunic dressed
People pondered why didn't he repudiate it
For they cohabited and so declined to quit....

The Honest Merchant
My friend is shy, ‘cause we call her ‘Pumpkin’.
With great trepidation, she enters the gym
A look at her behind;
And the instructor declined.
“By the time ‘YOU’ are thin, fat will be ‘IN’”...

Have Declined Many Pesos
Got a monstrous craving for scalloped potatoes
Not good for the waistline but on my head is a halo
It sometimes slips
Down to my hips
To share my goodies, have declined many pesos...

Fritzie
First they called me Fritzie
Really I didn't mine
I was young it fit me
Till I grew older in time
Zee Zee I once was called
I bloody his nose the name declined
Everyone now calls me just Fritz and that is fine...

An Invitation Declined
The gift that is given is given in vain.
The loss is incurred by having to explain
What the present is and why it is hers
The acceptance of which she deftly defers
Thus avoiding, yet causing, much heartfelt pain....

The Final Word
I dared buck the system
I dared defy the status quo
I declined medical tratment
I would treat it
I would cure it
I would inoculate myself and others
I would erase it from the world
I would have the final word...

Whitney 2-A Suited Soul
'A Suited Soul'
Left behind
A tortured mind
Life confined
A Love declined
Left to rest
Days dusty dressed
Love gone wrong a soul compressed.

Congress Should Cross Aisle
Congress Should Cross Aisle
Congress Should Cross Aisle and work from middle;
So they can be able to solve each confusing riddle,
Musically declined,
And loss of mind,
While around Trump always will continue to fiddle.

One Summer Evening
. We sat and held hands
on the mossy river bank
watching reflection
as a rippled day declined
Then lay back and looked for stars...

Only For the Knowing
Crumbled chalk, the same
Illusion of thoughts, the game
How dare you distort this mass of energy
Liar, you snort, hijacking my memory
Matter over mind,
Forever never declined
Soul crushed under cash
Powder over ash

Love On Credit
When Love is spent
Like credit on a card
It becomes a plastic debt
In which drowned of debt collectors
As it became so easy to swipe
Until the day it was declined
Taking credit without payment
Lost in interest

Love
Crippled are we all !
In shades abundant..in claims tall
Eyes that gleam yet gaze blind
With ears bare to sounds confined
Feelings enslaved to senses
Colours true yet declined
When Ego’s rule prime
And Love does in Shadow’s crawl !...

Fare-Thee-Well
If all the clocks would stay their time
If earth refused to spin
If all the stars declined to shine
If memories grow thin
I won’t forget our last goodbyes
Those words I heard you tell
I will not undo
The love we knew
So I’ll bid you fare-thee-well...

Pet Loving Santa
Empathetic Pet Loving Santa was overrun by the best of pets.
There were puppies and kitties, and hamsters who made bets.
We were hesitant to visit because there was always fur in his pie.
Please have some! He would say. We declined without telling him why....

Dear Sister
Dear sister
For which I care for,
I miss you so,
And your mind
That I adore.
I am sorry
That no one noticed,
How fast your life declined.
Even though
In body you're gone,
In spirit
You will live forever.
Dear sister,
For who
Is now a Goddess,
You were limited by body
But now
Infinite by mind....

The Dance Declined
The dance declined, mind games futile
We prefer vibrant bliss
Our childlike heart is free from guile
Fullness, nothing amiss
We’ve turned now, a new page
Soul stands at centre stage
As love fires within rage
Armchair reclined
The dance declined

Neverminded
I have no regrets, I just don’t’ like to be reminded
I use to have a heart, I’ll give you $100 if you can find it
I use to see the good in people now I just look behind it
I offered you everything and you abruptly declined it
This is like a bad movie and I can’t re-winded it
Because of you I feel neverminded...
