As Joe’s voice sours and may fade
A candidate parade and trade
Could upgrade our choice!
We'll sweetly rejoice
If lemons become lemonade

Secrets are grey
They taste like lemons
They smell like rotten eggs
They look like monsters
They make you feel like a liar

citrus spray fills the air
nails dig in thin yellow skin
lips pucker body shivers

There is a sour sound of lemons screaming
In a Venetian glass bowl on the sill
Each citric fruit sees the sweet thief stealing
But all stand perfectly still
It's no secret, you know it's true
I love you today and the whole year through
How deep it runs if only you knew
My peach among lemons I'm so thankful for you
War and Peace
Lemons’ lemonade
Human kindness changed our fate
Forged us Love from hate
Every day war crimes
Today no lemonade times
When life gives us limes
“no rhyme nor reason”
a backwards formed limerick game
melons and lemons
lemons and melons
though they don’t taste the same
if you’re dyslexic they are by name
LIFE AND LEMONS
L-Live for love
E-Evolve restart,
M- Make lemonade
O-Open your heart,
N-No matter how bitter, no matter how tart
S-Smile with A Jesus A’peel.
Lemons picked from my tree
tart-sweet on the tongue
A bit of yellow heaven
Clouds of fluffy white
Beyond elegant
Smooth as silk
Grand!
For the "calorie" contest.....
I wondered what was all the fuss,
a new form of poetry thought to be tough,
poets shedding the limes,
using lemons this time,
afterwards looking quite like a sourpuss.

sliced lemons
slide into thermal cup,
fresh mint leaves
and a honey drip.
boiling water splashes —
filling the vacuous space.
i sip repeatedly,
over chapped lips.

SMILE WITH A LEMON A’PEEL
When Life Gives You Lemons...
As life sometimes will
No matter what you feel...
Turn that sour pucker into a "Jesus Smile"
Smile with a lemon a'peel! (Appeal)
Women are like lemons, look delicious to taste
Oh so sweet until they show their real face
Then reality sets in
Much to your chagrin
Chase 'em till they catch you at the end of the race
Fantasmal Walk back into line
limes and lemons keeping time
So like crisping bacon or drinking wine
Out of the box ...can you spare a dime?
Touch me with your lust devine
Hating you!...with each new rhyme
When life gives you lemons,
squeeze out every drop.
Have you a drink,
because thats all you've got.
The taste maybe bitter
But in time, that will change.
Just add a little sugar
Sweetness goes a long way
Yesteryear mixed dulcet days with bitterly sour moments.
Zesty and tart as lemons, but tempered with honeyed memories.
This year, I will only journey through sweet orange orchards.
Lemonade is easy, I keep the lemons on my hat
We liked this enterprising chap, gnome named Matt
I pull them off when I need them if I start to run out
Smart gnome for sure, selling lemonade on the parade route.
There are two paths we can take
when life gives us lemons….
as we tell ourselves to keep going…
not to quit
The first is to make those lemons into lemonade
The second…
is send them back
and ask for chocolate.
Life can be rough and drop upon you a grenade
Don't let it get you down pick a song to serenade
Join hands with others and together promenade
When life throws you lemons do your best to turn them into sweet lemonade
The lemon tree is very pretty with a sweet flower.
However, it has an inedible fruit that is very sour.
The juice needs a lot of sugar to make it sweet.
The unadulterated pulp is something we cannot eat.
drops of river or ice patches;
all of this without your notice
but tough and half eternal
the lemon tree grows
cool and silent;
this makes you remain.
(for Klara Grünzweig 1957-2016)
Funny the way it was then
Feisty teen who loved sweets
Fine icebox fruitcake served
Fruit quite different mixed
From citrus~lemons, limes
Flipped fruit flew from teen's lips
Fantasy taste was gone
lilac and lemons turquoise azure skies contrast romantic sound

I walk along from day to day
Covered in my armor
People may whisper and say
What is she worried will harm her
Though I continue on my way
Little do they know or see
That I'm hiding from all the lemons life has been throwing at me
