Poor fish flipping and flopping;

Dying free at last:-

As we live lives free at last.

With hands drawn in pair
With bracelet around it both.

My flipping,flopping, bounding dog,
Excitedly jumped over a fallen log,
He should have looked before he leapt
Landing in a creek with his misstep,
Now he's dog paddling past a frog.

It is like flipping a page after page,
Fun or ho-hum

Feeding Time

Flipping,
flopping,
flashes of blue,
fish school.

Sunlight shines from the surface
showing scaly faces,
subtle currents flow,
swimming with fluttering fins,
fish nibble food from below.

Premium Member Flipping perspectives

A flip

Of perspectives

Lenses changed

Newness arriving

Then and there..

A frequent story

Seeming to miss

There's no one 

To witness

A flip..but that's

Another story...

Stripper Who Was a Finger Flipper

Stripper Who Was A Finger Flipper

All that she wore was her each slipper,
Which is why they called her a stripper;
Pretty precocious;
Flipping ferocious;
We have heard she is a skinny dipper.

Premium Member Flashing Lights

Fireflies flicker flashes,
flying freely
finding food, friends, family...
Fireflies float forward,
fearlessly flipping
frolicking field's foliage.
Fireflies furnish fiery flares,
fleeing fast...fond farewell!

Dolphins


Swimming and flipping
in the ocean to unbind
through a wave as so graceful
jumping and saving
people from predators known
talking in human language
for to understand
as to acknowledge
in the sea and on the land

Our Mind

There's nothing here to influence, inspire, pass the time,
we've got no flipping instruments nor wireless just rhyme,
No spire high above from which the church bells chime,
all we have in this instance is what forms in our mind!!!
