a handful of

With a handful of spinach
three stalks celery
a delicious red apple,
half a cucumber,
a little ginger,
just juice it

A plain ole nutcase
Is that what I am now called
Therapy I go 
Without weary bone inside
Though with handful of pecans

There's a kind of poetry
In the sound of rain

A poem about Nature
That's writing itself

density the

she’s graceful
a rare beauty
still, quite a handful
she’s had her share
of adventure

Never can you imagine how terribly bad 
a handful of War Devils’ breath smells,
During the war,
they appear shamelessly 
when they hear their dead SUNS’ knells

 Showered upon me 
A handful of joy

The setting sun
Gave an assuring hug
foiling the ploy

of all the slithering abundance of tiresome life

Giggling Girty became quite shirty
When her boyfriend was acting flirty,
With a handful of mud 
Delivered with an awful thud
Her boyfriend is now dizzy and dirty.

Premium Member 'all Well' Or Oil Well

Deep Southern accents
    today rarely heard
  except in a handful of words

  But New Yorkers still manage
    to talk so darn fast
  their reputation as windbags
    forever will last

A law abiding man
Jumps out of logics
Bluffing in public
A handful of simple tricks
An abundance of laughters 
But no request
For real rolling coins 
Even for himself
Who works wonders

On a cold dark starry night,
God grabbed a handful of stars
Turned them into a golden chariot
To ride across the Milky Way
He moves through other worlds
Lord, bring me your hands
Full of stars

Premium Member A Handful of Hope

The skeletal dome,?
a ghost of Hiroshima's pain,?
stands against the sky.

A child's hand,?
small and delicate,?
traces the curve of a crane.

Paper wings unfold,
?a fragile hope,
?a plea for peace.

A
handful
meets our need-
just a little
digested daily,bread on which to feed
a
spoonful
fills our heart,
saturates us
from top to toe,so helping love to flow
