Valued for fiber and
Vitamins are lovely
Veggies grown world-wide in
Valleys, fields, and gardens.
Vast is their array, and
Very healthful are they.
Vegan style's all the rage!

Verse lines designed to delight
O, how these can ev'r cure
 the sorrows in the night
A sonnet to slip you into a dream
A limerick for laughs and a healthful beam
your soulful eye yearning to dance away defeats
as you hustle to absorb the rhymes and little upbeats.

Labeled as a healthful 
Legume, this root is sweet
Like sugar, but with a 
Long-lasting, stronger taste!
Lollipop licks of it
Linger on my tongue. I
Love its unique flavor!

Diet Coke, icy cold, has fame.
Spiked with cherry or lime, it’s tame,
I buy the brand Shasta
because my drink hasta
use Splenda, not bad aspartame.

a Coke, but I just love carbonation!)

Farting is a cool poised own vis 
Has safe six-fold gains of wellness  
It may seems cannot -at all- be a vista
Yet, sure it does good to your viscera
It is fine to say to it "be a vis"!
It is all natural healthful process
No need for any sort of prowess 
Laughing because of a sudden fart,
Rudely that is seems its only fine art...

Presence Only

This is the 
Starting point for all
Healthful considering..
This Oneness assumed
Will find clarity
In all following thoughts
And perceptions..
Of course~~
This reverses 
What we call our normal
Way of rising and going..
But the Freedom it brings
Gifts a silent rest
In Gratitude...

Happy Thanksgiving...!...

Conversations on this message
Are exchanges of meaning about
A message with no meaning..
In this manner religious seeds are
Planted which distort the
Full-on simplicity by placement
Of word fences and adherents..
Departure from conversations 
May be a healthful antidote..
Another may be an expansive
Stance of welcome to all
Conversations as already not 
Excluded..which Poetry Soup
Would likely prefer.....

In my eyes
So beautiful and amber brown
You saw the blood dripping down my cheeks
Like mountain dew drops.

In my heart
So genial and benevolent
You saw the pains hidden in my pride 
And tearing me apart.

In my words
So soft and soothingly amazing
You heard dejection, insecurity
And rumors of suicidal tendencies.

In my life 
So divine and healthful
You saw that I'm dying to live
When I'm just living to die....
