He likened death to sleep
Safe in God's memory keep
While those without hope weep

There is a President, Donald Trump
Thought to have the U.S. stumped
All his policies
Sorry, his follies
Likened to cancer tumours clumped
We often experience life
Likened unto a basket of Peaches;
One day life is colorful, warm, and fuzzy.
Then later we find ourselves wrinkled,
And just the pits!
How lovely you look
in that perfect dress you chose
rosy lips, in pout
lit smile likened to love's dawn
that would be heart's best day won
were it my hand that held yours
the soul of beautiful person is likened to a flower-a rose
to see rose bloom is to see the birth of flower
i see your face in the rose face in the rose for the first time
Limericks are mighty fine
Likened to aged great fine wine
Some sweet, some bawdy
Some down right naughty
Secrets found in this short line
Just for fun!!!
WINGS OF WONDER
cool wings of blackbirds
likened to blue angel jets
spectators wonder
a shadow that soars beneath
a cloud that exhilarates

The board isn't straight because of the termites, ....Whose laser has melted likened ice, melts to water
....Crooked, is the board that has troubled the rain....

Love likened strikes as quick as a viper;
Therewith love's pulse billions grow more so fools.
Love - accurate as a military sniper.
There's fools of unthawed hearts; Than there's love's fools.
I must be nutty as a fruitcake
for attending my sister's
'pre-marital wake'
Sis likened marriage to 'slow death'
She didn't want to run out of breath
So I served her Arsenic 'n Rum in her steak
When the hairs are done
Singing the years
Total sum
Grey with the journey
Filled with wisdom
Stored sharing
Looking upon
Mistakes of children
In likened halls gone
Standing to lend
Strengths mellowing
Casting
Smooth sailing
fresh rain drops return
likened to life’s gift flows
flowering the hills
Obituary
Singular
Although many
All have the common thread
What the years have given them
Have been taken
Only relatives have interest
Or data keepers at best
The likened groups
That they belonged
Are waiting
Who will be next
Reflections on a window
Likened images that mirror the yawning morn
Etched in solitude
Always shifting at the hands of time
Perpetually racing the suns arc
Painting chaotic kaleidoscopes at its zenith
To peeling away layers at dusk
Where upon a silhouette of moon beams
That dances in silence
Along its inflected soul
If wife is likened to a storm,
What of girlfriend by the same norm?
A sweet little warm breeze
Lent on a short-lived lease,
No more than an overnight dorm.
Or sunshine, if you may,
On a grey cloudy day--
You wait and wait, feel nary warm.

Tongue-in-cheek |25.08.2024| Limerick, wife, girlfriend
The trail led to a mountain top
unveiling a becoming view
there not expected to be seen-
and knew we found a peekaboo
to an attractive, bubbly scene
likened to a movie prop.
Effervescent was the blue lake
framed by the verdant spruce and pine.
Pure and untouched for nature's sake-
a harbinger of peace divine.
M-an's life is too short,
A-s it's likened to a vapor;
R-emain worthy before God,
Y-ou will receive sacred favor.
R-eap what you have planted,
O-n the twenty-ninth of June;
S-ow the seeds of love,
E-ach must be in tune.
R-efrain from doing evil,
E-vade the endless sorrow;
Y-ou will harvest the fruits of
E-very seed you
S-ow.
Oh that such a PARAGON would appear
As one unexplained REVELATION only for me
Of the purist PULCHRITRUDE I can see
BLAZING toward me from one so dear
And having someone ADORE you this much
Is likened to avoiding a sinking of the EIGHT ball
Though it is somewhat of a DISCOMFORT should it fall
There's no denying CHARISMA laced with a magical touch

The chaotic sounds of
a conflicted emerging thought
pushed and pulled
Impending anguish is wrought
Words jigsaw a
jagged puzzle
Likened a bursting hose with
A busted nozzle
Firing out in a rushed frenzy
No time for sorting beginning from ending
Hoping to re-ingest
as it spews out a flurried mess
Too late as it flows past cheeks
Knowing instantly the havoc it reeks ...
Life can be likened to a big classroom,
Sometimes it takes years to pass the test.
Each failed test one is filled with gloom,
Life can be likened to a big classroom.
Babes are taught things while still in womb,
In this journey of life, one must do their best.
Life can be likened to a big classroom,
Sometimes it takes years to pass the test.

Once the gentle panther was loved by all
save dragon, the Devil, who hid in fear.
Believed to be good it held all in thrall
likened to the life of Christ held so dear
for rising after three days’ rest to call,
roaring so loud and sweet none failed to hear.
But wild, they follow to a fatal maul
with a sleek panther of face so frightening,
hidden from prey then killed like lightning.
Trump's newly-appointed EPA Chief
Found himself buried in EPA grief
To prove he was no party-pooper
He likened Trump to a Giant Grouper
Swimming against an almighty current
Where even the sharks were no deterrent
"Forget the 'U' and immigrant no-hoper!
I'll rename that fish, "The Slippery Groper"!
Well, Congress agreed to just let it pass
That's God's honest truth, you bet your wrasse!
May the narrative of your life
be one likened to the torrents
of a creek surging eagerly
against the rocks and boulders,
bubbling, gurgling, splashing
down the slopes - -
so gleefully!
May it not be a woeful account
of many what-might-have-beens
shrouded in sorry, sordid tales
of last-minute, scared hesitations,
of wasted, untaken opportunities
now remembered - -
so ruefully.
