Blue Toothed Grin

Even simple things
light a sparkle in her eyes
Lollipops in blue-
she tells me taste like sunshine
as she flashes a blue smile.

The Grin

A man took money and grin
Not thinking that it was a sin
He took a bit more
Then ran to the door
He was hog tied, then tossed in a pen

A Four Ex Grin

The weather is great
And so is your mate,

Let's go down the Pin
And get those mackerel

So let those reels spin
Then pull in the brim

Cause life's never grim
With a four ex grin!

My friend is known for a horsey type grin Along with his whinny, he can run like the wind Through fields of clover Don't mind his odour Just hold onto your schnoz and try not to wince

Crescent Moon Grin

see how he chortles?
          his merry grin    s p l i t s    his face
   as if cut across with a dagger

and he has    g o n e    and dissipated 
       long             before            his Laughter.

A grin in the snow 01-03-25

Winter snow oppresses stark branches
as the last of autumn deciduousness
slips silently to the ground.
Thud!
Snowflakes spring into life
like summer dandelions frolicking in the biting cold-
There at the heart of the frozen world lies my dog,
grinning.

That Silly Grin a Pirouette Poem

You left me standing there
With that silly face grin
Once again you out-shined
A sunny blue sky day
Laughing as you galloped.

Laughing as you galloped,
I watched you disappear.
What your love did to me,
Left with that silly grin
My pain, cutting deeply.

Bass Grin, Amen

I go to church and say amen once a week
But in my boat and in my spot
I am much more patient, quiet, and meek
I toss my line it’s just the right shot!!
Again, I will say amen as the bass does grin a lot.

Grin Til the End

Don't be take aback
By how I chop and hack
It's hideous indeed
How they continue to breed
You won't do it in this lifetime
It's much to difficult to rid yourself of the dirt & grime
No more, don't go on
Sick of it, you yawn
How it ends
Life twists and bends
Folds back to the beginning
Just so you can go on grinning

Chelsea Grin

Cut the corners make you smile,
Please just sit and stay a while.
Grab the blade and drag it through,
Drag it through the face of you.
Come on baby- baby please,
Wont you smile just for me?

Smile just a tad bit bigger,
Cock the gun and pull the trigger.
No hold on i changed my mind,
Cuz Chelsea Grin will take  some time.

Albert Einstein 1879-1955

Altho' it's not E=mc squared, Albert was heard to theorise when he declared, "Carrots are relatively good for the eyes, it's a fact they'll make you see well and look good too, I'm blinding you with science, it's not hoodoo or a voodoo act." He then asserted, with a wicked grin, "It only hurts when you put them in."

Game of gums

Seven pearls robbed
Ceramic contrivances replete
with squatter rights
entombing deep necrosis
for an Oscar appearance
staged and blanched
choreographed photoshoppery
of Cheshire cats
faux poses and grins
for psychedelic strobes
beneath neon footlights
and synchronised clatter
of frenzied palms
rhythmic and rigid
Politburo manoeuvres.

Poverty's Grin

Poverty; you dirty word!
You must be what I want.
Your poverty; you say out loud
is yours to name gallant.

That filthy word you've come to know.
No way to end it's pain.
That what you say is quite that way
to just ignore it plain.

That when you go to ask for more
remember that it's been.
For all the years not asked of you
your politician's grin.

...That Damn Grin

lost in my search the tiger I could not see
 the beast I lost the one Life would not let be
 an end is what was at hand this beast eluded me
then there sat a woman and animal there alone and free
without thought they turned and walked way...unknowingly
then turned and in the desert night ski I could see it so clearly
                                 that damn grin.

On Sterger

are we cursed or are we blessed
we fear the nos and embrace the yes
In the ease of life we avoid the pain
but with complacency what can we gain
when love comes do we run and hide
when opportunity knocks do we step aside
when our season ends will we smile and grin
or will we beg and plea to do it all again
with every laughter we deny the cry
are you living life or just flying by

Premium Member Jack-O'-Lantern's Grin -- Bwa-Ha-Ha

As scary as an angry pit bull's bark
Jack-o'-lantern's grin's aflame in the dark
   You'd better not shout
   You'd better watch out
I've a pumpkin who takes walks in the park...

The One With a Lopsided Grin

He amended a heart he didn’t break,
His lips never uttered a lie,
His hands were never cruel,
When he sang, danced, spoke gently, and when he smiled,
My heart fluttered and was lost for a while
He makes my day when he looks at me and raises an eyebrow with a lopsided grin, 
His foolishness makes my head spin.
He’s the past, the future, and the present 
His love is tender and omnipresent

Grin 55

'First comes the abandoning, then 
the state of been left behind, 
finally remains the abandonment.
Once asked how I'd overcome.

I said. Not.

Not defeating, nor overcoming 
is what you do on your own.'
She watches her hands
they are two of them.

‘You still have your children?'
- No, they have me.
- You always have yourself?
- Myself, I was a parcel
   a present of my wife.
   She opened it once.'

Grin and Bear It

Shyly                                              Loudly
          Smiling                    Laughing
                     in the face of 
                     Disapointment


  Go              Go
    Little stuffed
    Friend, open
     Your arms
        I'll cry 
You'll hug the bad and
         It will all
         Go Away!



Dedicated to my mother. She insists that Teddy Bears make life bearable!
