Regally she turned her head
Flicking her tongue into the morning mist
Tasting cologne in the wind
She gracefully galloped into the woods

You were successful
At flicking
All of your
Boogers away
Until you met me
And
Ate one

Sir Henry was smoking cheroot
Stark naked in his birthday suit
But he did something rash
When he's flicking his ash
His pubes are no longer hirsute!

f you wait long enough, things will surely start clicking
Your elbows, your knees and your eyes will start flicking
You'll bump into doors
Trip on things on the floor
But everything's okay as long as ye ole heart keeps on ticking

Your elbows, your knees, then your eyes will start flicking

where is that blasted farmer?
for our pull? pull? pull?

Fingers gliding along the sonorous wire
Captive birds inside get restive for the sky
plucking and flicking of fingers then continue
At the still point thousands of wings are free

drizzling maple leaves full glory
young intense reader does not mind
She is engrossed in the story
Which is one of a curious kind
The chipmunks are scolding.
Squirrels are on a walnut hunt find
There is a picnic lunch ready
Mice are sniffing, ready to dine.

In the dark when I cannot sleep
I reach for the books that I keep
on the locker beside my bed.
Flicking the pages soothes my head.
It's your baby books my dears.
Guaranteed to bring me cheer.
Sweet memories bring sweet slumber.
I dose as your names I murmur.

Leaping into the fog of night
chirps brightly , acapella
to awaken an instant thrill
with moistened wing-pads flicking--
a bug wiggles like a ribbon
caught now in my glassy jar!

Show
Applying mascara,
Hiding a real era,
Flirt with everyone you know.
Smile with your lipstick,
Get some money real quick,
Do your best, take it slow.
Eyes flicking nervously,
"Missy, please service me,"
Tonight, put on a good show.

How
quickly
they scurry
each November
among ancient oaks.
Jaws holding the treasures
they hoard in domestic holes.
Flicking bushy tails while finding
acorns and cones in woodland delis.

Unhurried, loose, easy
Meandering, forlorn pathway
Nightfall, greatness
Scenes, unfurl in obsess
Strolling byway, late day sounds
Dazzling splendors surround
Among squeaking treetops crowned
Seeing falling leaves, flicking
Glimmering mist, crickets ticking
With heavy steps, leisurely, plodding

More precious than crystalline trances
are singular experiences flicking
on my mind, a spill of alabaster, chrome
and pumice-like moments with you flow back-
In rampage and elation I wander lonely
through our stardust of intricacies blown off.

The witch formed a little niche.
A place to hide her flicking switch.
A hiding crevice where others would not look.
Her own private daring cranny nook.
Other witches tried to pry and see
Her spell book and switch unique to thee
But her niche was hidden by the deep blue sea
She laughed at their efforts with a tee hee hee

There it goes again,
off into a tantrum,
hurling blow upon blow
of breakers against the rocks,
tearing itself apart
into a fitful foam
of rage.
Come tomorrow,
or the next, it will calm down
to a gentle lapping
of the pier, flicking out
a watery tongue
like a child
licking a poppsicle
as if nothing
had happened.

a rattler flicking its
split tongue...gathering
chemical messengers~ Prairie Dog
without a prayer
vulture, periscope downward
navigates a granulate sea,
follows the wavering flow of tracks~
just over a grilling crest his meal
falls, pauses and pauses and pauses
he waits a bit longer on the sun, dinner
sun-baked and organic

Sue found an impossible task,
To ‘excavate’ wearing her mask,
Now Sue cannot linger,
With her little finger,
To abstain has been a big ask
Since childhood Sue’s ‘explored ‘her nose,
Her secret’s one nobody knows,
Sue’s now stopped the picking,
The licking and flicking,
It’s down to covid I suppose.

Rhinotillexomania’s a fear of nose picking
But some children like picking and flicking
I don’t like snotty noses
Wiped on my nice clean ‘clothsies’
But it sure beats kids picking and licking!
A quiz question was what is Rhinotillexomania... of course I had to google and find out the answer hence the poem!

Flicking channels on the television,
how may we enliven moment of shift?
Diving into subconscious mind's scission,
feeling of lack causes us to so sift
through illusions trying to envision
flavour of the moment, that will uplift
joy in our heart, that it may feel fulfilled,
albeit momentarily, as willed.

Ottava rima
Nonchalant, casual, easy
Meandering, desolate, roadway
Shadows in obscure, certainty
Grandness, scenes, unlay
Strolling byway in blackness
Brilliant qualities, encompass
Strolling in darken, nightness
Among squeaking timber-tops, echoing
Seeing sparkly, spotlight, flicking
Glimmering striplights, ticking
In relaxed, trudging, dusk walking

Ancient graying wood of
Canted posts
Swaying yellow grasses
Dance across
Rusty flaking barbed wire
Containing no more
Than a fading image
Of flicking horse tails
And stomping hooves
Still dutifully clasped
Connecting the rotting rails
A single coil of braided metal
Holds fast to the
Gate
Which now swings only shadows
Across a dying field
Forgotten

you are watching
paying attention
is that how it is done
start with a kiss
working your way down
will her screams fill the air
in a dark room
seeing with your hands
can you find the right spot
licking flicking
articulate tongue
will a word be spoken
moaning loudly
fire deep inside
is his hose long enough
bending backwards
gymnastic marvel
will she earn perfect 10

Questionku
I rose this morning to the rays of the sun
Slowly i walked;i did not run.
As i pushed the patio door ajar
There was a Robin;not too far.
It's then that i heard its melancholy trill;
This my heart with joy did fill.
Smiling,flicking its nimble tail,
Over the wet and glistening shale.
Like autumn leads to winter,
And day follows night-
It is always in site;
So plumed and so bright!
