And keep on ticking
Over and over like a Timex

Expects me to scrub the floor stench; what is he thinking?

Patterns

Being talkative at the due time,
 calm at the right  time,
curious in the proper measure, 
nonconformist
without boasting, that's what life expects of us... !

Than-Bauk's 1

River in spate
Ruler’s great  speech
Our fate unhinged.

Afternoon  sun
Only son comes
When none expects.

The pain that sends
A chill bends will
And rends the heart.

Premium Member Checkered Life

Tigers, generally, come in only one type,
wearing a coat with a vertical stripe. 
My dad's stripes go sideways, and as one expects, 
my fur is covered quite nicely with checks.

Lack of Light and Little Prayer

A lack of light
     power cut
    darkens houses,
    everyone uses candles,
    but no one seeks the "light"...
    Everyone expects electricity,
    but nobody actually prays...!

Won’t let the Grinch be blue
optimist for sure
her heart is utterly pure

She expects the best
At Whoville Christmas Fest
Grinch comes around
Happiness is found

'until Applauded'

Everyone expects magic from you at last.
You say you can't do it.
Who will believe you?
They think the rod in your hand is enough.

Already living is a spell.
Show them how to live.
'until applauded'

Why I Should Win 1st Place

I should win first place because I'm so old.
I could go to my grave with a gold star.
No one expects me to do a damn thing -
So one single rhyme could take me so far!

Premium Member Consistent Congress

Contemptibly craven 
Oratory obfuscates
Never nuanced
Gerrymandering guile
Readily reacts to roaring rabble
Egregiously expects economic encouragement 
Smug, self-righteous and self- serving
Slippery sounding sound bites

An Early Morning Sun

A-n early morning sun
I-s rising above the horizon; 
Z-enith awaits the noontime, 
A-s it expects the beacon.

A-n early morning sun
B-egins to share the light; 
I-n eighth day December, 
A-ll shadows drift into the
N-ight.

“England expects that every man will do his duty” – Horacio Nelson

Naval Commander Horacio Nelson
The vital Battle of Trafalgar he won.
Lost his right arm and his sight in one eye.
Revered for heroism, from a gun wound he would die.

Age Quod Agis

she is sleeping
like a lioness
after a late night
burst with the power 
man
alea lacta esta
expects
quick returns
insecure core in
an inflated ego
plush love nest
acquinti qui tuetur
age quod agis
i am going to
sleep

Someone To Everything

Someone having,
something deep in the heart...
.. for somebody,
means, 
what if,
somebody deserves nothing...
Still,
...somebody means ...
everything to someone ... irony is that,
somebody is after everybody ,
but expects someone
for everything.. ..

Respect

Remember people who looks up to you
Expects nothing but your friendships
Sometimes there will be no rewards
People will not always be your friends
Even when you have nothing you give all
Choose your friends whom you respect
Trust each other when you give respect

Uncertainties Ii

Pitch black
The life
The night
The death

The life none knows
The night none expects
The death none sees
Void, their sight.

What dwells beyond the wall
We know not
For our senses are alien
To what might not be

Pitch black
The breath
The sun
The light

Butterfly Killing

A killer garden of love 
expects pollution of sin 
was walking in town 
embraced my chest home
serving the environment 
 
Butterfly flies 
affect the branches done
disappeared and gone
health in a car exhaustion 
guard our natural wealth 
let's save the wildlife
do not be smug!
