Edward Manet painted with a light touch
many famous examples remain of such
He admired Impressionist as a group
but left himself out of that particular loop

Or believe my own sound

Love

Love is gentle.
Love is kind.
Love is sudden.
It comes from behind.
				People get trapped in love.
				As life goes by.
				And for some examples,
						You and I.

According To Wyatt

Affable people
are likeable fools
Divorced from the moment
their banter unspools

Affable people
in search of a creed
Amusing examples
— of folly indeed

Carlos and Hanna, husband and wife,
your examples taught me about life,
honoring family, marriage, and friends.
Much is lost with your premature ends, 
and though it's too late to let you know - 
Oh my God, I miss you so.

Premium Member One Bloody Bastard

Watching episodes of The Tudors, I 
cringe at examples of King Henry’s
pride and ruthlessness, casting off
wives and devotees with ease.. . . 
As he gads about with 
a new flame, an axe
falls again and
again on
Cromwell’s
neck.

Juggling responsibilities against the tug of gravity
in an effort to keep my head above the fickle tides.

by illuminating the preferred trajectory.
The dropped ball can’t be blamed on the ball.

The Whole Universe Is a Treasure of Knowledge

The Whole Universe is a treasure of knowledge
                                   The Sky is a symbol of wisdom

Poem In Paradise

She looked much like Miss Elizabeth Bennett though very ill without Mr. Darcy
Nor had she the determination to speak up as Elizabeth had in this age of 
suppression
So accomplished, reading, singing and playing the piano all day.
Beautiful that she was, she set no examples for improvement nor remembrance.

Age 13

Always remembered 
When life was a feather
Us greeting our pleasure 
As examples of following 

Age old places and its glory
Valued our perception 
We ruled our reasoning 
But not our sentiments 

Unforeseen needs and impression 
In our contemporary 
With fine arts of misery 
And fondness of outbreak

Choice of freedom

The endless and finine examples of chaos we see
The neverending bad choices we're given 
They cannot fathom to be
No more than a quicken schism 
I bless my thoughts so they may get better
But the world lays down all hope to rot
its as if time and fate would rather
Force us to choose between having freedom or not

Family Man

Family Man

Loves
his wife
and children
working weekdays
sacrificing his needs for theirs, willingly.

Repeatedly setting the examples 
his children watch
learning how
to grow
up

Premium Member Examples of understatement

What if the orbiting earth were to unexpectedly run into a brick wall
speeding through the galaxy one night in the middle of Fall?
Can you imagine the sounds of death, destruction, and annihilation
as Christchurch, New Zealand, crashes into the Atlanta Metro bus station?
I don’t think that that would be any fun at all!
