bad week for LeRoy
nothing had gone right
He wore his scowling angry face to the store
a happy "hi"
two -year-old waved at him
his heart leapt with happiness

If not for your resilience, your boldness 
O look at how you pushed in sweat drip
And I leapt with your groans to the clan
So innocent, leapt into the untold truths

dashed like the wind, manoeuvred and leapt 
reminiscing those memories I treasured then kept...
for most of my life I slept.

Joy

From tossing,  disgruntled, away
To what sent back, leapt for, chased up
In a new way
All it allows, for young and old
Change, blowing a storm, of bouncy
Joy's precious hold.

A goat who lived down on the farm,
Was renowned for her good looks and charm,
But she felt rather silly,
When she bumped into Billy,
Who leapt up in utter alarm.

Premium Member Accidental meeting in my mind

When you leapt into my mind,
I touched your shoulder from behind.
But when you turned around to see ~
I don't think you even recognized me.
So, I just said, "I'm sorry! Never mind."

Landing in a creek with his misstep,
Now he's dog paddling past a frog.

At the Tulip Parade

Our Joyce at the Tulip Parade
was humming the music they played;
she leapt to her feet,
and danced to the beat
(but sang out of tune, I'm afraid)...

Premium Member The Squid Man

The icky sticky squid-man
Squeezed from the water spout
Leapt up my nose and
Sucked my brains right out.

Dug deep inside me
with all his slimy legs
Inside my skull hole
He laid a thousand eggs.

Premium Member Playing Leap Sheep

The lamb stayed still, as he leapt over her head.
He continued to leap over sheep that afternoon.
You would think he’d change it up, and howl at the moon.

The cat gobbled him up, showing him that he was defeated.

O Winter Sun

Drag you along, tearfully
With unending doubt
Twill dry, each print, as the last
Day-stepping, wetted.

O Winter sun! For your mood
No high leapt greetings
Attractive-faced, brushed on past.
Nor those, stem-lifted!

Premium Member Pink Frog is Chased Away

pink frog was chased away by the divas of the day
she leapt over toadstools and moss, trying to get away
Don’t ever come back!  The prejudiced female frogs yelled in a mean way.
Because she was pink, they had quickly chased her away.
