sure-footed on mountain slope

bare footed with feet dangling in the

Makes a slapping, splashing sound
Under the rainbow.

It caught me-
A beggar walking along the road,
Bare footed,
I bought a pair,foot wear to match his heart.
He walked,talked to my inner soul!...

some friends though this disputed

at my dental plaque

i found him well web footed.

the two footed tackle
we would deem most likely to raise authority’s hackle
so better the elbow
to the back of the head like a blundering backhoe....

December
Late to the party again
Slow footed on the dance floor
Louder by dint of shyness
A bashful bully undressed.

Could I ever
Chance the power
To let you win
Race on back
To begin
This fleet footed fly
Repeat
I will stand
And be the blessed
Among the damned...

A singular beast is the moose
And said to be quite a recluse.
Fleet-footed, it seems
It's only in dreams
You'll capture a moose on the loose!

Henry's feet were his worse foes
He was always tripping on his toes
His neighbor tried to help
Every morning she would yelp
"Turn out those toes", slue-footed now goes  ...

she stood before
me staring through
me as if i threw
a cup of water
in her face

though clothes
soaked she kept
them on squishing
as she walked bare
footed away 

for
even
her
feet

i was clothed yet bare
footed I went outside in 
my front yard i walk

on the grass to a 
tree I opened up my arms 
and engaged a hug

cloud calling rock range
nimble footed hideaway--
climbers cold mistress

stony faced beauty
brilliantly immutable--
renders me breathless

hawks moon-shadow leap
glacial peak to sky unscathed--
cannot hide from me...

fox 
                    quick, sly 
  hunting, mystifying, chasing 
    silver, wild dog, duck, fowl 
plucking, swimming, migrating 
            web-footed, tame 
                       goose

had a beak that was shaped like a bugle
so it may have looked funny
but it held all his money
that Booby named Dougal was frugal.

There once was a dame named violet,
    Who tried to surf without getting wet.
    So she climbed aboard,
    Her ironing board.
    When trying to surf the Internet.

Though sometimes unappreciated
And always underrated
We have created a family
Unlike any other
We are strong, fast, and powerful
We fly high and light
We are quick-footed
With jigs, wigs, and makeup
Glitter, fake tan, and sock glue
We are unstoppable...

He Was The Music Man


Mr Pankridge
was a totem pole,
red-haired, blue-mouthed militant,
Six-foot, tip-toeing, tangle-footed trip hazard.
“The Music Wizard”
or “Hanky Panky” if he’s grumpy.
He could spit Mussorgsky
across a classroom like a cherry stone....

Bibble, the Blue Footed Booby believes bubbles are beautiful.
Babs B. Brown, his brother’s best bestie bashes his belief to bits.
Bibble blusters and babbles, breezily blowing bright blue bubbles.
Bibble’s Booby brother, Billy barely arrives before a battle begins....

Run lead footed in dream
trying to escape snakes or to catch speeding trains
wake in scream

wrenching nightmare
scares even restful sleepy brains
do prayer!

awake
happiness drains
shake!!

Run lead footed in dream
scares even restful sleepy brains
shake!!...
