A brontosaurus by name of Morris
Fell hard for Doris, a stegosaurus
  His tush landed right on her
  Sliced open by her armor
Lover Boy Morris had quite a saurus

Boris and Doris


There was a man name Boris
who had a wife name Doris
when he coughed
wife did scoff
they both couldn't sing chorus.

Premium Member dowdy drab doris

Doris was dowdy, drab, and draggle-tailed too
Forever frumpy, frightened, a failure, at age thirty-two
Jaundiced, juicy-gossipy, jealous, and July jailed
Slovenly, slithery, shipwrecked, her moment had sailed.

Doris' Brontosaurus

There once was a sweet girl named Doris 
who kept a big pet brontosaurus.  
All day long they would play 
after which they would pray 
and sing the Hallelujah Chorus.

Premium Member Doris Ann Does Not See the Pink Frog

Doris Ann was busy catching hearts, dragonflies and bees.
The giant pink frog was waiting quietly, smiling with ease.
Wait until she sees me, the creature thought, she may think I’m a toad.
But Doris Ann ran past her, straight down Mercy Road.

Premium Member Ricky And Doris

A puppeteer and a columnist
Two greeting persons of great talent
A writer and a simple artist
Met in New York on a bench God-sent
Acquaintance that brought humor and scent
To watchers and walkers awed with skill
Moving and talking puppets that shrill

Doris and Rock

my pillow has
become you
but you have
become my
pillow

soft but not
feathered down
shape shifting
to fit my girth
and width

spray some
of your
favorite
scent
and

then you send
me away but don't
push me away
befuddled
i only want

to
cuddle

Soup of Doris

A quiet almost abrupt person
Believes in heaven and eternity
Culverhouse, cuddly cheer giver
Dang dandy Doris
Enjoys food rich and sweet
Funny in a dry sort of way
Girl in my mind freckles and bangs
Handy and loves to learn


For Tracie Edwards contest
thanks for the inspiration!!

Premium Member Doris

Doris was quick-thinking
quick-acting, clever, and shrewd
But pointedly polite and polished
Never abrupt or rude

Her knowledge of psychology helped her get by with much
Fooling relatives, acquaintances, coworkers, and such

they were eagerly outsmarted and outmaneuvered by her.
She had an open heart, and a face that was open and pure.

Premium Member Darling Doris Dollar- -

…
Polyester jewels ravage her neck; Her clothes are stylist and yet; Money she has no remorse; She’s gotten all she got, from being divorced; Darling Doris Dollar; Got more monies than any others; It’s a shame the next man she gets; Gonna have to sign a Prenup…

Premium Member Tribute To Doris Day

TRIBUTE TO DORIS DAY

“Que séra séra, 
   whatever will be will be…”

sung to me sung to me

like a lullaby crescent moon

“when i was just
   a little girl”

the softness of her voice
my mother’s 

resounding on t.v.

remembering reminiscing 

Doris Day
the girl next door

beyond the stars
young once more

Premium Member Remember Doris

Doris' procedure is today
Remember her
It is laparoscopic which is not as bad as open incision but still surgery
 
Followed by only clear liquids for a week

Then protein shakes

Then pureed baby food

Then food introduced slowly

She was really anxious yesterday..Concerned if she had made the right decision, etc.


Thanks 

Sara  

Doris

She's always ready
heels are low
Keeps things hot
Paints her toes

Think she likes me
told me so
Said she'd break
if I go

Here to please
won't say no
Obeys my orders
fast or slow

Give her money
when I'm through
Yes she earned it
that's not new

Some they see her
look with scorn
Messed up hair
stockings torn

Most don't care
just ignore us
As I pay

Thank You Doris

lament [i have the lyrics]


you don't write me anymore
i had
grown so
dependant
so
needy
so
expecting
some sort of drama
within this
rather
strile
constricted
format
it is good to be king!
©[mb]
i was led
i was to
i was to believe

vacume floating
again
from
mantel
to coal
starved
stove

like
a
windmill
in
a
windfarm
blowing
a
breeze
to
no
one.

Premium Member Doris

Doris my baby girl
Tubes and devices
Medicial technology
No matter the modernist

The pain and suffering
Doesn't quit still a part
When one has to have
Help for the damaged part

But you had a sense of 
Humor, said they had 
Used WD-40 and duct
Tape to hold you together

May the great physican
Be with you tonight
Greet you with the morning light
Bring you home where's your heart

Premium Member Doris To Little Light Cloud

Doris was an unhappy girl; her stepfather was stern.
Her mother never stood up for her, no matter what.
She did not like herself when the Cherokees grabbed her.
But they showed her a new way and renamed her.

When they had finished with her she was a new person.
Little Light Cloud, a maiden who had fallen in love.
When white men visited the village, she hid out.
Never wanting to return to being unhappy Doris.

Premium Member Fisherman (Co-Written With Doris Culverhouse)

Swimming, life carefree
Net tightens around the school
Deliverance, grace

May your hook always be cast
Where you least expect fish caught

Synergism, save
These lost fish, grateful intent 
Catch and release, Life

Responsible now
Freedom, new life in warm water
Breach, spout words, joy, sing

School of life, protective school
Numbers rise with the right bait

Bait, love, nuturance
Guide... North Star...The leader Home
Reward eternal life

Doris Day

Platinum Beauty
Quick with a smile
Electrify the movie screen

Timeless charms and fashions bold
A voice of velvet and feminine brawn
Works to get the job well done 
Even with life's complications in tow

Lover of animals great and small
Cute and furry gets the love
Kind and well liked by her peers

***Doris Day is such a classy lady and inspiration to me....I would say she is the super star of all time and worthy of a lifetime reward. Great actress!!

Premium Member Unopened Eyes Co-Written With Doris Culverhouse

Cats on roof in snow
Sentinels watching looking
Without open eyes

The jet flies the governor's
Course set to adultery

Cat slips on frozen 
Snow, claws grip the edge, below
A fire awaits..... fate

Death takes the pilot,
In midair the govenor
Yearns...jet burst apart

Cat's grip is weak claws strip falls
Clings to  governor's carcass

Taxpayers buy a 
New plane, and exwife's dreams flow...
And flames still scorch!


(The cats are metaphoric for politicians.)

Premium Member Doris the Overindulged Duck

Doris is a duck who likes to overindulge whenever she can.
She overcompensates because she has no dog, cat or man.
Today I saw her eat three boxes of chocolates in an hour
Then she drank a bottle of wine, to give her happy power.

I have no advice to give, and I am glad that she does not ask.
A second ago I watched her drink something out of a flask.
Why don’t you set her up with a friend? My husband asked me.
She has never been satisfied with a husband, scratching out three.
