Poetic Anatomy Lesson For Heide'

Heidie, my dear....
Your "cockles" are,
in fact near...
Your "druthers"
Where they just may be,
Grey's Anatomy you
must see...

Premium Member My Druthers' Joys

Some say I too easily dismiss
    the joy of smoking cannabis

  Still though my druthers say
    they prefer a long-lasting kiss

written poems by sisters, brothers
always judged by someone’s druthers
never judged with hearts of mothers
judged by how one writes, no other’s

It is only by helping others 
We can truly help one who bothers
About life and well been
Of each's need created being
To practicing our noble druthers

Premium Member So Very Sorry

Rashida Tlaib is quite the politician, we see
Professing to be so very sorry
   For putting her pro-Palestinian druthers
   Above her desire to visit her aging grandmother

Freedom loves choice, left and right or the middle way all are paths to walk each day Hum and ha and other druthers are the price we pay for sweet liberty.

Premium Member The Elderly Prefer AI

    Overheard a couple elderly gents
    Discuss artificial intelligence
       One said to the other
       If I had my druthers
    ‘Twould be on the ballot for President

Premium Member More Than a Little

I like My morning pancake's,
With swirls of maple syrup.
And sublime tasty butter,
slathered in circles.
If I have My druthers,
that's more than a little.
I like my morning pancake's,
warm off the griddle.

Clandestine Things

Charmed, stunned…
That’s what you did!
My eyes are all in your pictures.
It’s a stealthy feeling. 
“To play or be played”,
Both are my menacing games.
My druthers sound too high 
But I wind up lisping your name.

Premium Member Hanging Up the Wash

Every day she seemed to be the only one
using the clothes line in Mt. Druthers.
Maybe I am the only clean witch, she thought,
wondering about the others.
Other girls wash their clothes at night,
said Wizard Wayne, one of her observant brothers.

Rick Roll

Rick, you got me once again;
I'm tired of feeling dumb.
Curse your mindless hyperlinks!
Kiss my big fat bum!

Rick, I'll never pass it on,
On this day or another.
Let the halfwits have their fun.
Let them have their druthers.

Llife Is To Serve

Lord has blessed us life to serve 
Not to blow up in ashes and smoke
How can one help others and solace
When he himself needs stoke
Nor can bring any good for him
Neither of any worth for others
Being a black mole on the life
Becoming a burden losing all druthers

If I Had My Druthers

My doctor once told me something
That had me visibly shaken
He said, "This is your medicine,"
"Which must be annually taken"

I said, "Doc, hold on a minute,"
"And understand my point of view"
"I'd like some I can take by mouth,"
"If it's all, just the same to you!"

Organize

Things that matter. 

Not useless data. 

Unlest without your behest. 

Cooked up by the NSA. 

And the Mad Hatter. 

In the end all is just chatter. 

Trying not to shatter.

 Either by pity patter or splatter. 

If I had my druthers bruthas (and sistas). 

I'll take the latter. 

Organize or scatter.

Premium Member An Other-Worldly Suggestion for the Pope


              The other day I overheard
                 one alien say to another

              The Pope would opt for peace on earth
                 if he had his druthers

               So, in his Easter address to the planet’s nations
                 he’d be wise to advise ~ every earthling’s deportation

Premium Member Varselle

Done well, another’s terse form to dwell on druthers. Oh so short and sweet, (too long just smothers) concise, complete, it casts the briefest spell. ----------
There are several variations on a Varselle, but this one is done as syllables and using the rhyming scheme. 2a:3b:4a:3b:5c:5b:4c:6a

Premium Member Poetry Thief

Mara loves to steal from others
A skill well learned with no druthers
Paraphrase one word or two,
Hoping no one has a clue
Her poems formed from another's

Mara cannot hide behind her word crime
And pretending to, is a waste of time
Poems and words can be traced,
to a new plagiarism case
She needs to stop and find a new pastime

Like No Other

A-im to touch every soul, 
V-igorously inspire others; 
I-ntensify your optimism, 
E-agerly use your druthers. 

A-llow your mind to learn 
L-essons from your error; 
M-iss not to understand 
E-very fruit of your labor. 
Y-ou never fail to help 
D-ay two of September; 
A-s you're sharp with your thoughts, you are one like no other.

Heathen's Heart

Demonic claws clasp your mind..
Taking your soul, lust becomes your shrine..

A wanton lover without conviction..
A heathen's heart, on a sinful mission.

Hardened heart and careless druthers..
Forsaking mine, you yearn for another.

Torturing myself, I continue to deliberate why.
I may not ever know, will always be my enduring reply.
