Home On the Range

The wife kicked me out of my house
Saying I'm no longer her spouse
Its all for the best
Now I'm with the rest
Who can put both hands down her blouse!

the best slight of hand hands down ever seen

Everybody spoke from town to town

That he had the greatest smile hands down 

Till his big brother Keith

Knocked out all his front teeth

Now he greets all in town with a frown

Pale Man

Hands down, the sleeper
Sits on a seclusive seat of hope:

Aging lips survey a feast 
With disdain, and crust at the 
Hair peach crying out for barber Enamel
Atop its push-up chair of
Amethyst and scarlet.

friendship

I thought he needed me,
I took him in my arms,
I put my two hands down
On its centennial trunk,
I stayed still,
His silence made me understand,
That it was me, 
Who needed him.
This oak offered me his friendship.

Always Come Home.

hands down
twice the man
soft spoken
steady on
quiet purpose
hard working
fun loving
tall and kind
generous
beautiful hands
dark hair 
wise beyond his years
never give up
don't worry
time will tell
always come home.

Time Can'T Stop the Thrill

Time, 
Rushed,
Please stop,
Demanding,
The pleasure of fun
Seconds should be more than 60

Hands,

Hands down,
Let's get dance,
Thrilled on the dance floor
Melt on urge,  last on steps, show time!

Self Tableau

Curly locks, red cheeks, a warm, cheeky smile. Wide-cast, dreamy eyes, sticky hands down sides. Dungaree, scraped thighs, of a girl aged five. 03/24/2021 Contest: Tableau - 6 Lines Contest Sponsor: Joseph May

A Silk Rose

I run my hands down your silk shoulders
till our hands are in each others.
As our bodies lightly touch,
these lips can only kiss.
I whisper softly
my only words,
I love you
always
Rose.

The Flag

Do you stand up for the flag
Flying fluttering in the breeze
It doesn’t look half bad
It may be old fashioned if you please

But my father went to war
And beat them hands down
He knew what was the score
So I will stand up with pride so sound.

Premium Member Break Maiden

He neatly won the race hands down.
It was the gelding's break maiden.
He secured the coveted crown.
He neatly won the race hands down.
Triumphant smile, no frown. No frown!
Both horse and jockey wreath-laden!
He neatly won the race hands down.
It was the gelding's break maiden.

Premium Member Folk Guitar

Attired in black and red tonight 
The way you sang was out of sight
Head and shoulders above the rest
Hands down you'll always be the best
The reasons why are clear to me
And to anyone with ears to see
But if they're not here's one that suits
Just s-p-e-c-t-a-c-u-l-a-r in snakeskin boots

Premium Member God Bless America

Having received the American History Award in high school in 1981 I can honestly say one needs to know only 3 things to win it hands down. these are: It stinks, it still stinks, and it will probably continue to stink. Just live your life the best you can and try to love life and people as much as you can. Oh well.

Wonderland

My heart is beating, though it is broken 
my lungs are seeping & my eyes are crying blood
as i hold my head in my hands down on my knees 
i am lost in alice's wonderland
is it a dream, how could this be, i am lost beneath my own grief
as this fairytale swollows me into the timeless universe i see what has become of me...Broken!

Premium Member I Didnt Say Anything

Fourth-grader, Leander had his hands down his pants.
Sitting on the rug, doing what people do but usually, in their sleep.
His young teacher said, "“Leander, please put your hands in the air!”
He said “I have to itch my junk.”
I smiled when she told me this. “What did you say?”
“I didn’t say anything. I don’t have junk, so I kept quiet.”

My Old Friend Longing

Matt asks me how you are
and I’m reminded of a life I almost lived:
the one where I’d know the answer. 

Here she comes gliding back. 
She sits on my chest,
runs her hands down my throat.
Her fist white, my dead fish tongue greying 
with an unutterable apology. 

I lean into her grip. I don’t 
know how to set myself free in the end.

Grandmothers Recipe

Remember the recipes you gave to me?
Of dreams and hopes and reveries?
Of April orchards by the sea?
Red apples under the harvest moon
June bugs on petals of sunflower sisters
Bending together in the whispering breeze
leafy arms,prickly kisses
Lady bugs flying home?
     I need you more than ever
don't  lay your hands down  now
Hold them out to me.

Repellent

Three performers enter the room.

Two children.

One adult.

The children stand like two scarecrows in a rice field.

The adult takes a can and sprays the children;

careful not to miss a spot.

The children put their hands down and prepare to exit,

The adult whispers,

“they’re everywhere”.
