Sipping cappuccino imbibing its flavour we allow indulgence a little leeway to revel offering to the vast void aroma of sensory delight 12-December-2022

Premium Member Kinderpaws Kitty Santa

Kinderpaws, the kitty Santa sat on many presents galore
pretty soon one paw was hanging and he was on holiday snore
we tried to scoot him off because it was six a.m. Christmas Day
But Kinderpaws had other plans, he refused to give leeway

Links of Lies

A little of it
Then a leeway
You carried the day
So smart.

But a little of it
Is never okay
There shall come a day
To protect it.

As defence
You put up another 
To cover up the former
Then peace?

Soon it dies
How can it last
When it was built
On links of lies?

Premium Member Be Here Now

sentient, alive, aware 
that’s all there is to it
imbibe, embrace, release
it’s ego that clings
identity bubble imaginary

renewing the moments
of innate aliveness 
we allow yearnings leeway
as long as we stagnate not
for each life hue is new

Flowers

Blissfully unaware of the DANGER in the GARDEN
Flowers bloomed, blossomed and burgeoned the big way
But in vicinity of mankind, there is no leeway
Public in Park Picked, Plucked, Pulverizing Plethora of Petals.

Premium Member Maybe Bias Overrules Guilt and Innocence

Is there any DNA identification leeway?
Can a savvy forensic scientist fake the results?
Can their opinion and bias overrule guilt and innocence?
Do they sometimes work on a relative’s case....
without divulging their relationship?
Questions which will probably never be answered.
Scary, isn’t it?

Premium Member An Odd Band

Odd beasts and creatures they are
Part human or animal, some have a scar
Some have ears, whiskers and toes
Others have levers, and hair that glows

An odd band, they have found each other
Acting as each other’s sister and brother
The rest of the health club stays far away
Giving them leeway each and every day

My Grandfather

He's a man of great pride & of humor. 
He's been there by far when it drove him. 
He's lived life with zest & love and regret. 
But he's been there by far when it was over. 
He's hoped for the best and lived through the worst. 
And strived to do it all over again. 
For he said in his way's don't ever have leeway, 
For it's gone before the rides even over.

Premium Member Molly Bear

I brought my chow dog Molly Bear to work every day,
Since I owned the business, I had some leeway.
She stayed in my office and guarded the door,
And was a presence the employees could not ignore.

To keep her inside I put up a small gate,
And no one would enter in fear of their fate.
She was friendly to all when she was free,
But behind the gate, she was no sweet pea!

*********** and Photography

Can something else not play
Or you just stop a replay
Of the scene on display
About Sex and Foreplay
And the way The Wayward lay?
For oddly do we slay
The Good Life everyday
While at last we shall pay
On some not conceived day
Or a tearful thing have to say
About Free Immoral Leeway,
Much like Accident- Prone Highway…

And sterile ***********
A far cry from Photography.

The School Boy

Love and laughter lifted the lukewarm and lethargic lad. He loathed school and took with levity its lessons. Lady Latoya let him understand that formal tutelage keeps life buoyant. She helped lessen his livid nature. She made him know that leeway is not a license for laziness. Everyone lauded Lady Latoya.

Premium Member Tolerance

Brutalising rights
The delinquent youth,
Turns opportune,
Moral disgrace
Knows no precincts,
Beyond all tolerance !

How much can
One allow leeway,
Racial bigotry
Blot on humanism,
Indifference or tolerance,
Never right on !

Enmity and hatred
Eat up like cancer,
Have no cure,
Yet must not endure,
Suffrage the prerogative,
Embrace compos mentis !

Premium Member every plant in her garden grew wild

every plant in her garden grew curiously irregularly wild
developing vines and blossoms unseen on other plants
some of her plants looked like hybrids, for no good reason
We asked about her green thumb and she laughed
I love my garden, she said, my plants know it
I give them leeway, and space to do what they want
They love it that I show my confidence in them
I guess that is why they are curiously irregular and wild.

Premium Member Santa Badger was a Pushover

Santa Badger can handle it Mrs. Badger said.
She was in charge, and this is not in my head.
I have seen the two together, she gives him no leeway.
He cringes from her directions by the end of their day.

Santa Badger was a pushover and gave much away.
Bunnies, hedgehogs, and mice soon showed up to play.
Let’s go out and eat, one of the mothers suggested.
By end of the day Babysitter Badger’s nerves were sorely tested.

Just Before Release

It's a pathway,
Activities in our hands,
Duties permuted by us,
We shuffle and rearrange.

It’s a leeway,
Sometimes beyond us,
We're chauffeured through,
The result is seen.

The day is like a portrait,
Twilight is through with its session,
Dawn comes to the fore for its,
We struggle to make changes.

The day is like a journey,
Dawn sets our feet on the way,
Twilight brings us to the end,
We can rescript the lines.

Blurred Boundaries

in the begainning 
a set of unwittingly formed
blurred boundaries were 
created over time they were  always changing interactions
continuously reshaping relationship  
constantly moving further away   
creating more leeway between the two
till over time the lines were crossed to may times 
causing a wall to be built up between the two
till there were no more crossing between personal realities anymore
till the reality hit that the bridge is forever more closed off now

Premium Member Red, Yellow and Green

Red that impedes people from moving
Extra step forward enticing
Dot in red, ceases everything 

Yellow that warns and drums
Extra press on the pedal, burns and hums
Leeway to move forward like a wand 
Left or right with your foot or hand 
Or keep moving as told
Whine when you go beyond the line in bold

Go and keep going
Rev and ride on a Boeing 
Exercise discipline and be alive
Exceeding (with caution) the gauge in the hive
Never surrender 'til you get there!
