Law of Gravity

There was a young man named McAvity
Who resented that old Law of Gravity
He heeded a rumor 
That values good humor
And now he is lifted by Levity.

Apologies

Apologies to the little scamp
who marked on the edge of good humor
who spread his mess on the wall

Apologies to the blubber
mouth who ambled through a whole
half-decade

Apologies for the half-whispered
"shut up" spoken to lipstick queens
with too much attitude.

Premium Member Graceful Ageing

Ageing,
like good sex,
good faith,
good humor,
and/or good politics,
seems to be a focused process

Of becoming less judgmentally rejected
for the traumatized company I keep

And more happily appreciated
for surviving
the predative
and privileged potential companions
I have prudently rejected.

Private Sitter

A friend in need
Is a friend indeed.
Working together
we succeed.

Unable to use
arms and feet
or voice, he
can complete

An email or
ask for more
of peach tea
or more from me.


He is a friend.
We get along.
His body's weak.
His mind is strong.

His good humor
strengthens me.
I am blessed,
undoubtedly!

Premium Member Bid On My Love

What would you bid on a love like mine; none better could you find. I’ll fill your heart with happiness, for my love is good and kind. If I bid on your love, I’d but require these few things of you - Sincerity, good humor, and a heart that always beats true. written Dec. 5, 2015 for the Contest of Tammy Reams

Premium Member It's Snowing Again By Gumm

It's snowing again by gumm.
Thought we had Jack Frost on the run.
It keeps melting and freezing,
I'm coughing and sneezing,
Early Spring in the North sure ain't fun.

The snow is a wet, sloppy mess,
And it puts my good humor to test.
When I go for a walk,
On the puddled sidewalk,
And slip down on the ice I ain't blessed.

Premium Member Pass the Eggnog--Hic

The most wonderful time of the year brings to some a unique kind of cheer. When the eggnog gets “Jacked,”* the good humor they lacked makes them blabber to everyone near.

A good sense of humour blunts the sharp blade of reality poetry contest

Witty words keep me sane 
A giggle eases, life’s pain
When times are trying
Laugh through the rain
Reroute the grooves
Soften the grain

With faces stiff
A snooty drift
Good humor sees
Life is a gift

Minus a grin
Hard work won’t win
May spot the crowd
But won’t fit in

So when you choose
Smile over frown
You’ll lift the blues
A joyful sound

Summer Daze

Summer once meant days outdoors
To soak up all the sun.
At beaches, parks or mountain towns
We frolicked and had fun.

We cooled off in a lake or pool
If there was one close by,
While treats from the Good Humor man
Made time just seem to fly.

But global warming’s turned the heat
To temps that have us fried,
So many summer days are spent
With cool A/C inside.

Time

Speak softly
feelings are real
watch your words
life is a big deal

handle your friends
as if an only child
keep good humor
love is in a smile

teach needed skills
to children in need
they are the future
plant good seeds

wisdom is guidance
from those who know
listen to the elders
sunshine to grow

pray a little prayer
sing a little song
life is waiting
time is ticking on

Premium Member Havdalah

Purity of countenance, fellowship of praise,
kindling of braided wax and flaming wicks.

                       Feel, smell, see, hear, taste
                               — for the Lord is good.

Soaked in wine, spices, candle and prayer —
cordiality stirred with gentleness and kindness.

Pot-stirrers of all that is good — smiles, good humor and tongue. Havdalah! 12/13/2019
