Short Gain Ground Poems

Creeping up stealthily,
cushioned claws
cautiously gain ground.
Claws retract, amber eyes
covet the prey,
concentration heightens and the
chase begins.

Mind merge
Voice verge


Tight grip
Flip trip


Soft sleep
Kind keep


Calm craze
Mull maze


Pulse please
Life lease


Deep draft
Chimes craft


Breeze bliss
Prime peace


Time tells
Word well


Speak sound
Gain ground


Be brief
Glimpse grief


Sit still
Work will

Who's selfishness shall be his own
undoing
The scare ofCupid"s arrow has healed
and my mind is once again clear
must we gain ground together
and chore to create
alas who's mind is neither here or
even local might wonder to
only be creative in troublin
 ( way's to be unfaithful)
that your full attention is needed
and ever fiber of your 
understanding must
be loyal to me....

Bright beauty blooms
Zealous zest zooms


Craft cheery charm
Apt ample arms


Wise willing words
Healthy heaps heard


Wear wordplay well
Sum sparkling spell


Glimpses gain ground
Face flavours found


Beauty brings boom
Grace gently grooms


Live lavish lure
Prize promise pure


Sweet secrets stream
Drill dazzling dream

On a game field of the greenest grass
We’d touch, I’d run, and you’d pass.
I’d gain ground and you’d intercept.
Every game, we leapt and swept
Into the end zone to a climatic end;
Nothing left to defend or offend,
Too many touchdowns to surmount,
No personal injuries or fouls to recount.
Then, offsides, false start, taunting?
Your penalty flags left me wanting,
Challenging every yellow thong thrown;
Then ejected, exiled to the Friend Zone!...
