It's nice when you have your health
But when accompanied by some wealth
It's gooder than good
In all likelihood
Even better when flowers you doth smell-eth...

Tried a quatrain, it didn't work out
Guess lims are it until there's a drought
So far, so good
In all likelihood
Lims will keep coming till I like sauerkraut...

Happy is a mood, not a tangible thing
Can't wrap it up, tie it with some string
Good if you could
In all likelihood
Maybe email the masses, this joy to fling...

Things won't get better in all likelihood
Just go with the flow
No need for blows
Things will always go on as they should...

Seven on moon mine is June
Twice on earth yours is shine
Thrice to air fresh to breathe
Four to start friend to see
Five to reap good to hear
Six to start glitter to win
Best of all likelihood, own...

GO 
ALL THE WAY
ALL THE DAY

FROM HERE 
TO THERE 
AND BACK

FROM LEFT
TO RIGHT
UP OR DOWN

AROUND 
AND AROUND
WE GO

AND 
AT THE END
MY FRIEND

THE LIKELIHOOD
THAT WE 
WILL ALL WIND UP 

IN THE SAME 
OLD SPOT
IS GOOD...

A woman prefers a man who is smart, big and strong,
but also one who is sensitive to their feelings lifelong, 
but you will never have this man, not one single woman,
because in all likelihood, he has a boyfriend or husband....

What's a billabong, a bop on the noggin”
In Oz, they speak funny, harkens back to their login
They misunderstood
Puters in all likelihood
Thought it was a passing fad, much-preferred snoggin'

(look it up!)...

Have you ever slept overnight in a tent in the woods
An experience to treasure for a lifetime in all likelihood
The thrill can't be explained
It's like survival unchained
Nothing can rival this journey in the backwoods...

Likelihood Are Good

In all likelihood hope my poems are good,
And may be much better than they should;
I have no glamor,
And may stammer,
But when read by wife were misunderstood.

Success
Written: by Tom Wright
January 2015

Unless patience is in your success formula,
You’re, in all likelihood, an ingredient shy.
And if your seeds of success didn’t sprout,
Perspiration’s lack is the main reason why.

Fingers, toes, eyes, everything's crossed as they should
Wifey's going for a mammogram, family history's not good
If it's not good news
Catching it early is the clue
Results shortly, tests will be negative in all likelihood

(Results: Benign... yee haw!!!)...

Ginnels are cavernous and gloomy
Between smoke-stained dwellings
Under the close watch of a warship
Where the flowers of beauty bloom
abundantly available
Ugliness is merely apparent
With the likelihood of being subjugated

When Jesus said 
he loved the little 
children,
did he forget that I was impossible 
to love?
When all those children fit like 
A glove in this sea of likelihood, 
I'm lost in a mitten
tossing and turning in no man's space.
Crying for help.
But noone will 
ever 
ever 
hear....

Wisps of steam
dance with joy in my coffee cup;

        you've got a plane 
        to catch, old friend, our time is up;

               nice chat about
               old days back in the neighborhood

                       we're still
                       trying to recall in all likelihood!...

Been watching the dead files on TV
Their cases are pretty intriguing to me
I really like Amy and Steve, the hosts
Believe in their entities and their ghosts

But now they are bringing out aliens too
Likelihood of this makes me kind of blue
When husband walks by, I yell “I would move!”
He rolls his eyes, our predictable groove....

There is one thing I surely do know - 
That because of the way winds might blow,
We'll have hours of rain 
Which, though, really a pain,
Just as easily could have been snow!

Tonight, when the raindrops do stop,
Then the temperature's likely to drop
And, though that will be nice,
Once the streets turn to ice,
Up the likelihood goes I'll go plop!...

My house 
soon to be
at the mercy 
of a catastrophic fire

the likelihood 
of salvaging 
everything
infinitesimal to nil. 

Given a choice 
to make off 
with just seven things,
I'd choose, 
in no particular order...

1. Family album
2. Keys
3. Cell Phone
4. Wallet
5. Computer
6. Flash Drive
7. Wedding Photo

The long-range forecast's looking good;
I've something special planned.
My phone's a crystal ball and so
The weather's right at hand.

I wish there were an app like that
To let me know in life
If certain days would bring me joy
And others only strife.

Or would I really want to know?
And also, though we long
For info on the future, there's
A likelihood it's wrong!...

A question that has baffled man since day one

Are there other beings similar to ours out there

In all likelihood without a doubt I say yes

The odds are astronomical to be otherwise

We only need view the map of the heavens

To lead us to this logical conclusion

Odds must surely be (astronomical x infinite)

To resemble us is a matter of conjecture...
