One wild happy-go-lucky senryu
Was caught impersonating a haiku
They levied no fines
But removed two lines
Now she's a stick-in-the-mud monoku...

Happy-go-lucky alive and free

Joyful in all weathers
Embracing the silver lining
Skipping, joie de vivre
Spirit enlivening, vibrant, rejoicing...

Happy-go-lucky, a phrase describing old me
Not a care to speak of, a happy club emcee
Making tons of bucks
Running amuck
Tossing flowers and wearing a polka dot saree...

like Labrador retriever 
squirrel wags his bushy tail
forth and back and forth
happy go lucky* amidst
Autumnal storm of acorns


*cheerfully unconcerned about the future...

Visiting a country market while out for a drive
An experience unequalled, though prices are little high
Friendly country folks
Happy-go-lucky yokels
Fresh fruit and veggies to satisfy and gratify...

A variation on the original but still the same sweet guy
Happy-go-lucky, delicious as banana cream pie
Though there are times
Need a kick in the behind
No one's perfect, not even this stunner, can't lie...

beneath the lunar eclipse, 
          dusk air kisses her soft lips
in happy-go-lucky mood
                out strolling in solitude

noon dandelions
all awash in seas of gold
spring has lately sprung

butterflies and bees
in beauty's residences
happy-go-lucky

joyful greenery
the songbirds are back in town
calico cat naps

I wouldn't wish a life with me
on my own worst enemy.
I live my life very miserably
and cause others to feel miserable who care about me.
I use to be happy go lucky.
I use to be the life of the party,
but too many years of too much tragedy
has made a shell of a man out of yours truly....

Every morning I wake up,
Put off my candle of dreams and raise up
my hopes though my thoughts whirl,
like a happy-go-lucky sort of girl.

Chirping birds on my window,flowers that bloom
in pots,the morning dew freshens up my room.
Then the sunlight comes to me cheering,
strucks my eyes and wishes me "GOOD MORNING"...

I can laugh all night
Until sunrise
That might sound childish

I can act foolish
But I deserve 
To be treated right

I’m proud of myself
For preserving my 
My child innocence 

I can be naïve 
But I’d rather
Use my childlike brains

I have a grand gift
Of uplifting
The distraught spirits 

I can be mature
But who cares...I’m
Happy-go-lucky...

Let´s meet the happy-go-lucky man;
full-blooded,
neither craven nor valiant,
taking life as it comes with a touch of indifferent air,
good-humored, easy-going,
careless and not jealous.
Just It wouldn´t be bad to beam him a bit of mundane grandeur to be a perfect partner.

If it was not because...
We are actually referring  to a dummy...

A fast-paced, quick-thinking woman is Jen.
Gregarious and fun, she juggles her men
Tossed and tumbled, all three laugh about it.
Loving her the whole time, for she is a chit.

Happy-go-lucky, fun to be with for sure.
Her motives are good-natured, totally pure.
All think they have a chance, but none know.
She juggles six more beaus down in Buffalo....

Here I write a red poem,
Sohpie Tucker red,
"The last of the red hot mama's" red.
It's a hard Tap Dancing Red,
St. Valentine's red,
Cinnamon Apple scented red...
Georgio sweet smelling red,
Victoria Secret Red,
Morning sunrise red,
Red Hot lipstick red,
Happy Go Lucky Red.
Written with my flaming Pink Crayola Pen
On this October day...
Oh you kid!

Kitty was loving the swish of the happy-go-lucky fish
Gentle lap of the water brought her from her dish
Could we be valentines? She asked the gold one.
Sure! Said the fish. Could be all kinds of fun!

The castle was wise; tried to warn off the fish.
But the golden one swam off with a swish.
let’s have supper tonight by the light of the moon?
Okay agreed the fish, you bring the spoon!...

locating my frolic
lost somewhere along the way
discarded among my happy-go-lucky
brazen swagger
with teeth gritted for effect
dealing with the dust and dream
looking for my sizzle to find
used to fit snug, like a
a patented soft leather glove
been told I look lustful
in my leathers
ahhh . . .
found my misplaced frolic
to wear with pride
feels so good
I allow it to be unbuttoned
exposing my glad...

She has everyone fooled 
The perfect smile
With the body to go with it 
Everyone thinks she is happy go lucky 

Only she knows the truth 
The darkness behind the smile 
Nothing but betrayal 
Hides behind her icey-blue eyes

If only they knew 
They wouldn't stay around 
Her life is a lie 
A double life she lives

Keeping her emotions at bay 
To keep loved ones happy 
Hiding the her beneath the beauty
She has them all fooled...

My Best Pal

My very best pal is a hairy ole' guy.
His breath is so bad, it bring tears to my eyes.

Mexican music he really adores ;
though he lies, not dances on all of my floors.

He's happy go lucky,
and smiles all the time.
he has no money, not even a dime.
For why would he need it,
when he is the boss.
And I, just his servant,
pleasing him at all cost.

My pal is a stinky ole' Beagle, you see ;
I dearly love him, he tolerates me....

Every time I see this happy-go-lucky person they are wailing, keening, 
But in a subtle way, pretending pure happy, wearing a plastic Barbie smile.
Their perpetual red mask is firmly in place, attached with cement glue
I realize they can never share, for they trust no one; it is too late for that.
It saddens me, but I fully understand, as I am wearing my own perpetual mask
Firmly affixed, holding memories in place that I will never share, keening also....

People with powers used to conceive a war
As the simplest way of erasing any conflicts  
Covering various differences in people's ideas 
Beliefs right or wrong or lives dim or bright 

The truth is that wars will end in the life-killing 
Erasing people's lives and their valuable hopes 
For happy-go-lucky and rich-go-healthy living

If there is no more aliveness briskly walks 
What could upright the dignity, and freedom  
And how devil for having wars to gain all of them...
