Sweet Child - Wujue

Sweet child/ pure heart shines
Soft voice/ love song fines
Great gift / true bright star
Bright smiles/ leak gold mines

One Small Indiscretion

One wild happy-go-lucky senryu
Was caught impersonating a haiku
They levied no fines
But removed two lines
Now she's a stick-in-the-mud monoku

The Revenue From Trasgressors

My name is The Law.
My face is stern
Toward transgressors,
But I can use
The fines they pay
Dropping into the coffers!

At Ellis Island

At Ellis Island there were tons of lines
If you stood too long you were given fines
Your name easy if
It was Rose or Big Biff
Mine was misspelled about a hundred times

Heinz the Gambler

There once was a gambler called Heinz,
Who needed to pay off his fines;
The right numbers he got
For the lotto jackpot -
Alas all on different lines.

The Man

In shackles, the angler stands accused,
His reel now silenced, dreams diffused.
Caught by the law, his freedom at stake,
No fish to take home, just fines to be paid.
An unlicensed cast, is the price he pays.

Another Day In Pa

with gas prices soaring
I’m no longer mooring

I’m becoming my parents
without twenty-five cents

where I live use to be mines
sinkholes appear with no fines

just another day in PA
no sinkholes here so I’ll play

Great Receivers

Quick cuts
Shows guts

Fast feet
Cuts neat

Jumps high
Runs by

Good fakes
Smooth shakes

Knows routes
Runs south

Sure hands
Wide span

Knows plays
Speed pays

On time
No fines

Great shoes
Blocks too!

In bounds-
Touchdown!

Short Arms

Where are you?

I am here
you didn't show up
death is not an excuse
I will put more coins
in the parking meter
if I have too
until
I run out of coins
then run out of tears
	why oh why

tickets and fines
	who cares?
		

my purse is empty
I have run out of breath

Poetry Is Risky

don't do the rhyme 
if ya can't do the time
no (don't do it)

don't write the lines
if ya can't pay the fines
no (don't do it)

don't write the verse
or you'll lose your purse
no (don't do it)

don't do the poem
if ya want to go home
no (don't do it)

HE SO FINES A BEAUTIFUL DAY-

He so fines, Beautiful so souls the days are fine;
Heavenly Father as wonderfully kind;
And His parentage is mild, ever breath is mind;

Adjourning love supply, He’s ever present always abides
Lovingly, assuredly He so inside, inside He is within me He’s finds

Driver's Beware

If you're operating a motor vehicle look for signs 
Especially, if you don't want to pay ticket fines 
Don't drive all that fast or all that slow 
Especially, if you want to get to where you want to go
Because accidents happen when you drive too fast or try to pass 
And by driving too slowly you might get bumped in your ass

Lee Anderson M P

With integrity under fire recant and
You'll be labled liar.' There are riots
On the streets now' parades about
The middle east, sad-guy just counts
Up the fines, he gets from, his u l e z
Low down feats, its not because he's
Muslim..' or the mayor that gives them
Room.? Just one thought an earlier
Britian never lived within such gloom.'

Gas Mileage

Where do you go
In the bumper starlight splashed
Pressed upon time with parking fines

What do you see
On your endless concrete journey
Carving out carcass of shopping spree

What happens now
When the gas lines drought
And distance becomes an issue

Will you charge off by feet
Will you occupy the space you screech
What happens when the road is cut?

Twenty Nine

Twenty-nine cavities
My dentist said,
Gleefully twenty-nine times
Twenty-nine novacaines
Fun as twenty-nine
Parking fines
Half as many root-canals
Half as many frightening dreams
Half as many muffled
Dental equiptment blocked screams

Twenty nine appointments
To dread twenty nine days
Twenty-nine times to stumble out,
In twenty-nine a dental haze

Warrior Status

Bridge a capture to understand desperate measure

A Seal a place a time of understand to found to won’t

All statue of mind and place to escape to take mind of

Capture to know of desperate measure behind enemy line

Is all that remind what push that holds one mine from

Collide like a escape goat fines of wine yet define

True character has no witness.

False Hope

Deeper and deeper the blade goes in each night,
Holding on to the renominates I call my life,
Losing my grip with each passing day,
Thinking, hoping there is another way,

Tired of fake smiles, and all the I'm fines,
They can't see the pain I'm in and all the silent cries,
But I don't know how much longer I can cope,
How much longer I can believe in this false hope.

Citation

my heart gets pulled over
and the fines are numerous
I study the citations
and know they are all true:

too fast for conditions
failure to negotiate the turns
running all the red lights
following too close
ignoring all the signs
passing on the solid lines
loving without a license

the price is not too high
and I will gladly pay
when the officer leaves
I start it all again

I Comeforth

From watered womb burst 
From poppied fields sprung 
I Comeforth 
With Penance scarred skin 
Fines of blood given 
My keeping bondage loosened 
I Comeforth 
Standing attentive in destiny's battle 
Fighting fates torrential onslaught 
I Comeforth 
With armored soft and wounded heart 
A soldiers eye for dying 
I Comeforth 
In the spring of new growth 
Reticent tears of rebirth 
I Cry 
As I 
Comeforth

Be My Love

Will you be my love?
Together we`ll build a nest of dove.
We`ll have couple of kids
And bring up them all the days and nights.

I will be yours you will be mine 
We will wander together and dine.
From hills to valleys and bines to fines.
We`ll cross black hole and the forbidden lines.

Oh! My lady, silently come.
 Let surrounding be deaf and dumb.
Stand frontward and hold your tongue.
Let the critic keep mum.

All

Daniel JR search where do the wind goes 
Well you do
I want a kiss from you 
Twice softly and sweetly Mon Amour 
How will your father coquettishly do  
Came in if you have a chance, something pops up- thanks for trying
Cabs are yellow silver and blue
White Grey as your Eyes
Be good no lies
Us is Us 
Yours Heart Mine Is 
Be,
There's no fines for
AMOR
only in mailing
I am stuck on thy beauty
and classy Catherine SR nurturing 
All Lucky

Donald J Trump

Donald J. Trump Also known as a whiny, petulant grump Should be indicted for crimes he’s committed It’s hardly likely he could be acquitted. Donald J. Trump I suppose he’ll soon be hitting the stump Anything to seize the headlines, And avoid paying some hefty fines. Donald J. Trump Now much too large in the rump Not fit to be president of the U.S.A. I believe a vast majority feel that way!
