Is often of utmost importance to me.
Difficult to believe
We were raised by the same parents....

Frivolous action,
begets random outcomes.
Heartache and despair ensue.

Reasoned action,
entails planned results.
Success ensues.

Heed your actions....

Not allowed to chew gum anymore,
What will be next, not able to open door?
This may seem frivolous.
Will be advantageous,
To profiteer, he will know the score....

Your frivolous smiles greet the night jasmin
Moonlit sky plays the heart flute
The darkness writes bright verse

Drinking is a frivolous joy 
Much to feel as though you were a young boy
Having fun dancing with a girl 
Now don't forget the most important part, which is not to hurl!...

My heart is too frequently engaged
In pursuits of the most frivolous kind,
Sometimes it runs away with itself
Leaves my mind lagging far behind.

Stubborn, never giving in frivolous ways,
remaining an example of manliness...
quickly fading in modern times. 
My image proudly set in stone,
a face battered by the fierce wind....

I told Mom my boyfriend's not frivolous
Her standards being so darn rigorous
  Mom, please don't send me away
  If you don't like 'Rocko's' ways
He snarfs pigs raw -- proudly carnivorous...

frivolous nonchalance
easy carelessness
ridiculous calmness
in the face of equanimity
heedless casualness
notoriously relaxed
indifferent airiness
way beyond easygoing
deadly carefee

Declarance of Foreberance

What I decided to do was make a declarance;
Frivolous things were found with forbearance;
Do be brave;
Also behave;
Use all of your intelligence and do it intense.

I fear 
the flavor of fruitfulness,

the fullness of tables, 
burden bent
by fleeting bounty

I dread the feast;
festivals 
of frivolous indulgence

because I know 
Famine rides hardest
where blessings rot....

RED, WHITE, AND BLUE

The American Flag
Is not just a rag
Affording protection for you
It isn't waved in frivolous fun
And its colors are guaranteed not to run

Third grader is braiding her hair in an elaborate way.
Not students are supposed to do on testing day.
I do not care, keeping my opinions about this test at bay.
Validity of this idiotic waste of time has plenty of frivolous fray....

A poem can be flowery
Illusory
Capricious
Frivolous

Some are short, others rather long
Flow like a song
Reveal one's soul
If that's the goal

For me, it's a declaration
A translation
Of random thoughts
A mind's snapshots...

The Christmas spirit is in the air
What a joy it is for everyone
Families gather around the tree
And have so much fun
So jovial and jubilant
Of a delightful mood
Everyone is in such a frivolous manner
As laughter fills the room...

We waste our time pursuing a frivolous task,
and fail in addressing those most important.
At eventide in our accomplishment we bask,
but we squandered time on the unimportant.

Once in life time on planet earth
a stranger appears unexpectedly
often his diary of life is fairy
obscure, unpredictable, a thorn in flesh
miraculous, puzzling even frivolous
to majority, the being is an ogre
persecuted but later venerated...

A butterfly, swimming through 
The stagnant air, 
Shivers past the eye
Of an old rustic hound, whose
Paws flinch with a curious, 
Frivolous anticipation.

But, once its muscles shed
Their torpid skin, and
Bones flex, and begin to swing,
It’s gone....

If smiles were not free,
Could they tax you and me?
Is happiness a luxury?
In Monopoly, there is a tax for such a frivolous activity.
Is sadness and pain a liability?
If so, can you claim it as deduction retroactive to the day you were a baby?...

Avoiding antique phone conversation
