Then covers it in a flash
He moved it quick
Because he’d learn a new trick
To make his stash cash look like trash

Fear-Hope

Like a spear
Perambulating through flesh
Leaving a tear
Incessantly so fresh
Is fear

Like a macrophage
Nursing your gash
Pouncing bacteria in a phage
Rigorously in a flash
Is hope

Jump Rope (Another Acrostic)

Just so was the timing

Up she went and when

More steps became

Possible she moved out, and then

Returned in a flash

Open to the tempo

Pleased as her feet did fly

Easy doubledutch.

Eyes That Blink

Eyes that blink and flash so bright
Can see whats there at dark of night
Eyes that catch life in a flash
A families love or waters splash
When all has changed or gone away
Leaves what will forever stay
Form:

In a Flash

The sun shines
Close your eyes
Full of so much light
They cry
Pupils dilate
Start to infatuate
There's no wait
Open your eyes
See the world so bright
A happy sigh
Watch the trees go by
Full of life

Premium Member Unloved

I don't feel love 
or maybe 
I don't want to feel it 
I've become too attached 
to so many people 
then in a flash 
a turn of events 
I am let down 
thrown to the curb 
unwanted 
unloved 
once again

Premium Member Once, Words Mattered

    As the candidate yammered on 
     His opponent stood his ground

        When the first ran out of time
        In a flash the second chimed ~

    “I’d always thought a man’s word was his bond”
