Oh like an army
she battled through my defence
like a tornado
blew away a mordant mind,
yet the touch of an angel.

A sigh of sound
sweet batting of eyes
there is no end
to worrisome

our defence is to gather
round the fireside
where the spirit
fails to congeal

Take Me If You Can

ready

Danger Zone

Maybe it's the bad boy attraction 
Maybe it's the need to spice up her life
Maybe it's the fire of her self defence mechanism 
That keeps her tangled in his angle

A ray of sound
sweet batting of eyelids
there is no end
to worrying
its got to stop

our defence is to gather
round the fireside
where the spirit
fails to congeal

Wind- For Acrostrain Contest

What's that awful smell? she cried
I pleaded innocence
No sign of cat, it's still outside
Damn! There goes my defence!

I Do Not Argue With My Wife

I don’t argue with my wife in my own defence,
I'm not used to verbal squabbles like a drunk.
I just proudly sitting on the wooden high fence,
Poking finger at her, sticking out my tongue!

Knowing, That Attack Is the Best of Defence

Knowing, that  attack is the best of defence,
The defender in the court hit the accuser in  face
And he feel very proud
Of what happened above
And, of course, he  won  this difficult  case

little Robin perched on snow covered fence,
out in open without any defence,
Kestrel saw an easy meal,
considered moral appeal,
In Xmas show love- no room for offence!

The Last Word

Steaming fire and ice      
Glomming armour and vice
A royal defence force
A charging horse

He’s sire
Knighted Sir.
A messiah
My hero

A skilled warlord
Conqueror of worlds
His regal sword
The last word
Form: Rhyme

More

In my defence this loves intense
Deeply cored within, and
If it’s wrong to wait so long-
Desire must be sin.
Persevere without no fear
With passion I do crave,
For only just a little more
Your love you richly gave.

Chess

The white and black squares with bishops and knights
Whether English or French, just can't get right
My pieces can't stand his defence
There’s King and Queen, but no Prince
To help me checkmate and end this boring fight

I saw a countrys leader..Name Jesus as
Head of military defence.' I think its the
First time I have heard such said.? Very
Interesting maybe we'll see peace.? Not
Much hope in human leaders, by them, is
Violence just seems set, on increase.)

Links of Lies

A little of it
Then a leeway
You carried the day
So smart.

But a little of it
Is never okay
There shall come a day
To protect it.

As defence
You put up another 
To cover up the former
Then peace?

Soon it dies
How can it last
When it was built
On links of lies?

Fence Sitter

Being a middle child
Made my temperament mild
And not so demonstrating
But some would think off-putting

But it is not a popular place
When the world appears in a race
And sitting on the fence
Is one made for defence and not offence.

America 10

Another day yet another mass slaying
Mental health cannot be fully blamed
Even politicians must accept some blame
Rights to defend it maybe constitutionally 
In wild west how many carried gatling guns
Challenging to duel settled most disputes
Ask yourself where is defence in slaying
Form: Acrostic

Smile

When you sound your battle cries
I will smile
When you match to my door with your pitchforks
Chanting, cursing, on your crusade of righteousness 
I will throw my door wide open still with a smile
It will be my armour and only defence
In the midst of all that you do
I will just smile
