A mention in a list, so doubly in a dual list 
is not an option for a true individualist.

U. S President Donald Trump
Often behaves like a chump

There once was a girl named Sandy
Whose auburn hair was doubly-dandy:
She got gigs of gazes,
A plethora of praises;
Hey, her hair hue was hyper-handy!...

word salad sandwiches,
poetry soup
forms a la mode,
doubly scooped

delectable morsels,
my lunches of late
with footle in mouth,
why don't I lose weight?...

When one canary sings it's a treat.

    When two are singing it's doubly sweet.
  
    When three or more sing

    It's not a nice thing.

From their racket you'll want to retreat....

Dragonflies set in my yard
I feel doubly blessed by that
With patented fly-byes
They magically anoint 
Me in faery dust...

The bird in the tree
Singing so beautifully!
Does not sing for me

And yet, as witness
There’s no doubt I benefit
And am doubly blessed

By the notes that play
In delightful ricochet
I deflect your way!...

I really don’t mind 
If, a weakness, you find,
Or a doubly distant
And breakable thought
Against your insistent
Requesting is wrought.
It doesn’t much hurt
If you choose to leave first
But please have a care for my heart....

Delirium delves deeply
Deeply dense
Derivatively dying
Dancing deliriously
Driving deeply densely

Happily hastily 
Honeyed homeliness

Lying loneliness
Levitating loveliness

Delirium doubly
Dealing deftly deathly
Deeply delving deliriously....

When the mother on her knees
Gives the world a new creature
An active goose to lay golden eggs
Or a blind lion to roar and tear
For each her golden womb pains
But with doubly chained hands
Mouth experiencing dry season
The best gift to the world is given...

We pennies are coppers
    Quarters, two bits

  We dollars are bucks or singles
    Five dollars, five-spots or fins

  Tens are (or were) sawbucks
    Twenties, doubly so

  We hundreds are C-spots or 'G's ~
    Who says we're 'all about the Benjamins'...

Cleared of all voices
This forested space.
Left with one's thoughts, and the peace
Of a holy place.

Each, a plume weighing.
And lightened, doubly
Through what, for the living God
Who's heart, solace grants
Is felt, blows and flows, enchants.
Not inappreciably!...

so doubly golden
a sunflower field of sun
beauty waits for me

colorful splendor
abstract paintings draw the eye
to that other world

dazzling bird green trees
to all sings of dawn glory
and takes to blue skies

mountains in the clouds
mostly lost in mystery
before orange sun...

If what you write touches my artistic sense I am impressed
If what you write paints a picture with words I am also impressed
If what you write reaches deep into my soul with its humanity I am doubly impressed
However, if what you write is merely an expression of your own ego it saddens me...

eager exotic eyelashes
doubly dilly dots and dashes
quixotic crazy slashes
friendly farm ashes
wild window splashes
breakneck barley bashes
goodly gnarly gnashes
heavenly hopeful hashes
slick satin like slashes
meandering and marauding mashes
creative corny clashes
boots improvising as goulashes
eager exotic eyelashes...

That part of our anatomy
often remembered first, usually,
and by which others form an opinion 
of our character, unfortunately 
is the face. With some women 
it takes a backseat in preference
for another of greater prominence,
located just a glance below the face
or if you prefer just above the waist, 
and is often doubly false, say peeved men....

So little done,the pathos of things,this nearly man caught in ignorance on a lonely path where tempo treads softly,alone.A  time out for heartache,primeval  feelings sitting on a volcano in a bleak mid winter.Living for today one thing leads to another..out of the blue.A watershed..to catch this miracle, a glimpse of the soul..petal by petal  being doubly blessed....

LOST STARS IN OUTER SPACE

Puffs of smoke pushed by gusts of wind;
late autumn trees stripped clean of leaf and
fruit,
Doubly dead pulled up by the roots;
wild ocean waves leaving nothing on the beach
but the foam of their shame
Lost stars in outer space
on their way to the black hole

R-ise of the sun has begun
U-nder the wide blue sky; 
F-eel the warmth of shine
F-iring-up hopes to be
A-live.

M-ay we feel the warmth of sunshine, 
A-s the dawn has just broken; 
E-arly light lets us see September thirtieth in the open.

P-ure delight is truly brought, 
R-ays really make us fine; 
I-t's time to work doubly hard, 
A-s we feel the warmth of
S-unshine....

Gibberash spontainly rushed
From other poet’s pens regushed,
Cannot contain the jovial 
That Joycean phrases frame so well.

Ditberner is the Guzzi dare,
Dare I to say I doubly care?
Constracted I to JJ.’s soul,
I half a line to make it whole.

I fear my brain will adlelate
My mind doth too soon arbitrate.
Read this I beg in smallish doses
Ere Poetry Soup gives in and closes....

When bullets fired doubly fly

Passers by will doubly die

Murder mayhem in the town

Two more victims spiral down

One shot one kill or so they say

Full metal jackets twice today

Crimson stains on every round

Two more victims in the ground 

Changes in the law are needed

Congressmen have never heeded

Once we pass it on the floor

Two more victims never more
