He said he thinks so … then began to laugh ~
Astonished at his self-evident gaffe

Hee-Haw was a Donkey
    misappropriated as a laugh

    oops ~ My bad, Joe's gaffe...

They go on the attack and inveigh.
Hear the gasp and the utter dismay!
we try hard not to laugh
when they commit each gaffe
No rewind. no delete. no delay....

Treacherous their ways
    without sunlight's rays
  Paths of sleet and ice
    break our limbs in a trice

  Youths may look, leap and laugh
    Elders dare not make this gaffe...

Fun how?
Fun how?
Fun is you
Fun is your touch
Fun is your understanding
Fun is your grin
Fun is your humor
Fun is your gaffe
Fun is your high
Fun is your fever
Fun finds you
Know
Love 
Lord...

Really love to make people laugh
Especially when it's an “out-of-the-blue” gaffe
Talking loud in an elevator
Personal stuff for later
Quite outrageous, life tickling my @$$...

My husband had purchased fresh flowers
They sweltered in his car for eight hours
Twelve roses of red
Were nearly all dead
His Valentine’s Day gaffe truly sours

quickly getting to the centre
fulcrum at which bliss throbs canter
smiling at erst stuporous gaffe
carefree to let out a loud laugh
life lived thus in carefree banter

Don’t stifle laughter.
Many great things such as happiness or relief
come after.

Enjoy a gaffe!
It can even lessen your grief
to laugh.

Guffaw
for some relief.
HA.

Don’t stifle laughter.
It can lessen your grief.
HA!...

With her new tv show, Roseann Barr

had the chance once again to go far,

but her most recent gaffe

didn’t garner one laugh,

and her sitcom might get a new star!

Laughter at its fair best
brings reddened eyes, shining tears, and snotty noses
beats the rest

Chuckle or snort
among the riot of roses 
report 

so laugh
none opposes
gaffe!

Laughter at its fair best
among the riot of roses
gaffe!...

Life triggers a tickle
and soon, that tickle morphs into a full-blown laugh;
Life's fickle.

Fore-and-after,
a funny happenstance or gaffe;
laughter!

Loud farts
is how a sclaff
starts.

Life triggers a tickle;
a funny happenstance or gaffe
starts....

With humorous mind
Plucks spunky courage 
To write poop verses
Poems not abridge

To a complete gaffe
Loves stiff cockie pudding
A gentle soft soul
Nutty and charming

separating wheat from the chaff
we laugh at our gaffe
being spirit and not mind-body
sometimes mired in thoughts shoddy
so refining consciousness bit by bit
threefold flame of Christ in heart lit
we delight beholding form transform
swept away in a benign bliss storm...

Mind not the gaffe, let eyes twinkle
Be not proud, join the crowd
Stardust of love and light sprinkle
On ego place a shroud

Free from cunning and guile 
Take time to smile awhile
Joyous in life’s last mile

Enjoy the laugh
Mind not the gaffe...

Love in instances
Love in giving
Love in getting
Love in your weaknesses
Love in gaffe
Love in amorous deeds
Love in frailness
Love in fragility
Love in drawback
Love in dire drop
Love in darkness
Love in light
Love in good 
Love in differences
Love in war
Love in love
Love you...

Grog

Gulping down a flagon 

Gives one a gibbous glow. 

Gather 'round ye hardies,

Grab one and have a go. 

Ghostly foam and farting 

Gnomes bilge one gushing flow.

Garish gaffe...drinking Grog!

President Donald Trump
Such a discourteous chump
Walked ahead of the Queen
This audacious gaffe should NEVER be seen

****According to Royal protocol, it’s considered rude to show your back to the monarch****

The other half of me 
Explains what others see
But only few know that half 

That I choke and bleed between every laugh 
That there's a king behind the gaffe  
That there’s pain in every paragraph 

And those who know 
Don't know where I'll go 

But at least they will be at my gravestone...

Awareness self aware
Sees God everywhere
Unity in diversity
Singularity in duality
In synergy
With love energy
As the only real vibration 
With which in resonation 
Attention oscillation a gaffe
On which we simply laugh
Reigniting the flame within
Of benign bliss ignition

In stillness

Maybe I'm committing a social gaffe
but when someone falls, I have to laugh.
For just a moment I feel guilt and disconcert
before rushing over to see if they've been hurt.

Belly laughter is contagious
It tickles my fancy; it's outrageous
how quickly giggles get out of control,
but laughter is good medicine for the soul....

In basketball, there is a hoop
Through which an orange ball
When arcing, in a graceful loop,
May very likely fall.

A candidate, in quite a gaffe,
Mistakenly said “ring”
Instead of “hoop;” on his behalf,
Attention it did bring.

But notoriety is not
Considered as a plus
And lack of sporting lingo’s what
Makes him not one of us!...

                                           Had one advantage
                                             She could laugh
                                              Without gaffe
                                          In modern stone age

Tomorrow 

I saw the dust of today
And I know there is tomorrow,
Sun will rise, or the rain will rule,
Or the clouds will dance and hover
Over the sheen village of mine,
But i wonder if I could witness their show
For tomorrow has its tricks I cannot behold,
Tomorrow will never be a good day
To forgive and forget, the gaffe of today,
Let today be the king....
