Down the stairs






Swirling in air
when my hair stuck
off stairs I rolled.

Don'T Laugh

So,
Some
people are
just like slinkies;
not much good for
anything at all, but you
can't help but smile when you
see one tumbling down the stairs.

Premium Member I Patiently Wait

I see many black coats 
Going down the stairs. 
But he was not there. 
I patiently wait, 
I plainly contemplate. 
When will he come and seal my fate?

When a psychic named Krystal Ball
Predicted our President's fall
She meant down the stairs
Not from his affairs
(Trump's belly blocked seeing them all)

Enchanted Fall

walking down the stairs
enchanted by her luring smile
tripped, great was the fall
broken arms and collar bone
not to mention three teeth missing


Be gentle Amy :-)

Voices

Voices, voices everywhere
Out the door 
Down the hall
To the right 
To the left 
Down the stairs 
They just don't care
Voices, Voices everywhere
Where they stop
Only you will know

Rolling Downhill

Tumbling down the stairs
of misfortune

Slipping on the banana peels
of time

A curtain came down
on his opening act

The Fat Lady singing

Fruity 

Apples and raisins
Are all grazing
By the flamingo trees
Being chased by honey bees
Are the bears
Who use to care
As they run down the stairs

Christmas Sounds

I sneaked down the stairs on my own
To catch Santa working alone
But there stood my mama
Without her pajama
And Saint Nick was doin' some moan

Premium Member Little Kelcie

Poor little Kelcie, while taking a selfie,
Tripped and fell down the stairs.
She cracked her crown as she went down,
Twisting her ankle and knee.
Now she laments at these awful events;
"All for a picture of me!"

Premium Member I Remember You 9--11

I remember you I do,
 The day the buildings crashed down
 You went into them so bravely 
 To rescue to guide them 
 Down the stairs as you stayed there
 Valiant In the face of death.
 I will always remember. you.

Rolling Bottle

missing you here by my side, 
having you there in her eyes. 
it just doesn't help me here, 
and I feel I have lied. 
gave you a perception, 
that wasn't too clear. 
and now thats an empty bottle, 
it's rolling down the stairs.

Silence In the House

Listioning for everyone to be asleep
Slowly she opens her door
The house silent 
Noone but her is up 
Tiptoeing down the hall 
Down the stairs 
Reaching the front door
She hears a sound 
No screams are heard
After her neck is snapped

Premium Member Framed For Fame

FRAMED FOR FAME

There once was a boy — His father was “Blue.”
Classmates hated him, down the stairs he flew.
Billy Moon with his girlie hair.
He really missed his teddy bear.
Christopher Robin — no soul ever knew.

At the Midnight Stroll

At the midnight hour
The clock strikes
I run down the stairs
Trip and fall

Off come the shoes
My stocking are torn
But I walk on
I have grace and style


As you can see
My head is held high
For all the world to see
At the midnight hour

Premium Member Fresh Air

the house filled with emptiness surging sea of memories cascading down the stairs decorating chandeliers speckled dust - eyewitnesses letting in fresh air yes — it has giggles footprints everywhere repeat often 1/20/2020<

A Cat For Christmas

I wake one morning
And run down the stairs
To see what is under my tree
What could it be?
When I get downstairs
I hear a soft meow
Eagerly I peek around the corner
To find a kitten
With a bow on its head
Looking at me
It was a wonderful Christmas

Intruder

She broke into the empty house
and felt someone was there;
ignoring that, she walked around,
but sensed a hostile stare.

From room to room she paced, and glanced 
behind her, all her hairs
on end. Too late she saw the form
that shoved her down the stairs...

One Hand

Walk with me
Take my hand and 
Walk with me

In the rain
Under a rainbow
Through the snow

During a sunrise
Towards a sunset
Even down the stairs

On a sidewalk
Through a store
On the park grass

Hand in hand
We are one
Twice as strong

Just walk with me

Sleeping Downstairs

I should be upstairs.

Where the bed is.

I’m up late.

Thinking about how far I’ve gone.

Up and down the stairs all day.

I shouldn’t be sleeping downstairs.

It’s dangerous, it’s a secret.

My parents are asleep and I am alone.

Downstairs, I am the only one.

Ice King and His Sons

open your arms hug come saunter down the stairs under the rug there's a man with sunflowers for eyes sitting down with a cup of tea and a nice jacket and green tie. Showing me his assembly of glass eyes all with a different design. Doves and flowers and ingest the elephant man's apple pie.
