IN MEMORY OF CENTURION 
GAIUS LUCIUS MANIUS 
PRIMUS PILUS FIRST COHORT
LEGIO VI VICTRIX
HE SPENT HIS PENSION
IN CISALPINE GAUL
WHERE HE RAN 
AN HONEST BROTHEL
HIS FUNERAL WAS GRACED 
BY A MURDER OF CROWS
AND GRIEVIOUS LAMENTATIONS
IN THE NAME OF FAIR ISHTAR
DAUGHTER OF SIN AND SHAMASH

Premium Member The Sin of Sloth

'Twas not the sin of sloth the Visigoth rained down on Rome: the bitter taste of Gaul. By moral indolence, His passions wroth. Care lacked, and inward rot presaged their fall. ---------- for the Sin of Sloth Poetry Contest sponsored by Margarita Lillico written on 07/02/2022

The Eiffel Tower

THE EIFFEL TOWER

In the city of light their aspire
Was to build to a climax higher
Gustave Eiffel you see
Said just leave it to me
I can satisfy all your desire

Monsieur Eiffel seen with affection
By Dames de Paris for perfection
Of his manner de Gaul
Mais plus ca most of all
For his grand magnifique **ection

Premium Member Beyond Her Lips

Through these lips
sorrows pass
bound to slip
seldom last.

Behind smiles 
secrets said
all the while
kept in red.

Whisper cries
from the heart
tender ties
love may start.

Lipstick likes
to make marks
takes all types
to send sparks.

Touch these lips
don't dare miss
passing ships
with a kiss.

Premium Member Autumn Soup

My niece has a blog and sent me a text, an autumn soup recipe but now I'm perplexed. For four days now I've been constantly deleting but the text keeps returning, in spite of my weeding?! I've been on the phone with Verizon reps and followed all their technical steps. Shortly after I end the call, the text reappears, imagine the gall. I appreciate her thought in keeping me in the loop but I've lost any desire for autumn soup.

Premium Member Goody Goody Gum Drop

goody goody
gum drop
more than sweets
may mean
a lot

ate a gum drop
just popped it in
rolled around
let it spin

left and right 
hugged my cheeks
swashed about
then repeats

savor the juice
sugary delight
tickles tongue
this tiny bite

stuck to teeth
once it's in
while i smiled
big green grin

might not be
a better thing
than this
except a warm
sloshy kiss

Premium Member Pirouette De Agua

Dance to the depths delight
Swirling in sun blue light
Pick then the perfect line
On point as in Ondine
Twirl and fall to this far
So know now who you are
Lone in waves once content
To life's lyrics well spent
Your song sounding still right
Wet whirls glow in the night




couplet  10 lines  53 words
11/13/22
Ondine is a ballet play
about a water nymph who
is the object of desire 
of a young prince

Inspires An Army

come rebels!
come, lovers!
come fight for all
with a speech to some in infamy
because i had the gaul
to stand against corruption
its just an assumption
but my heart cant take this blasphemy 
against an army, standing tall
save the children
save the women
bring them to the shore 
where a thousand ships all wait
till our banner raises tall
to show we won and fate
shines on us this evening
freedom we adore
history will tell our tale
through song, story, and lore.

Trumped

Who would have thought Teresa May
Would ever make a nation sway
A snap election she did call
No one thought she'd have the gaul

Denying that she ever would
Everyone knowing that she could
She often comes over as being strong
Perhaps she has this one wrong

Counting down till the eighth of June
Will the country see a blue moon
Anything can happen at the vote
Heading to the polls do take note

Look what happened America trumped
A surprising turn may see her thumped
