Premium Member farm dog

once an old dog named percy

licked a farmer quite slurply

then a homeless cow

with mimicked bowwow

licked them both without mercy.

Syd Barrett Tribute Poem

Thoughtlessness 
of an fanciful mind
camouflaged to a layman's eye

a vision with an 
uptopian trance
mimicked by 
the madcap laughs

Shine on, 
Crazy Diamond

Premium Member Monkey Shines

The monkey was staring at me
Oh, excuse me, sir was I staring
    (I guess I was)

He bared his teeth and laughed
I mimicked him, laughing too 
   Human see ~ Human do

Premium Member Do Animals Understand Us

Can animals understand what we say Do they respond to some of our wordplay Is it just instinct Or a wish for kinship A pattern mimicked which they display

Premium Member Let It Snow

“…let it snow…let it snow..”

	the snow blanketed 
	the earth’s floor—
	burden tree branches
	mimicked bent black backs
	of slaves—
	in the distance
	a red tail hawk 
	echoed:
	we stoked the fire
	and made love

Premium Member Money Money Money

Money, money, money, the bane of our existence First, you see it, then you don't, only exists by persistence Perhaps a figment Constantly mimicked Not really real, too quick to be real, I need assistance

Heart of Kapilavasthu

Mimetic mimicry mimicked the mime.
More than furlong, the entire belonging day long.
Prophet, the proper property, pope prophecy.
Hardhearted harshness tied a fair harness.
Shepherd herding sheep, harder in a herder way.

Premium Member Everyone Liked Garret

Everyone liked Garret.
The girls wanted to be his friend.
The boys wanted to be him.
Garret was like a charming epidemic
Mimicked by his appreciative peers.
Adored by his teachers.
His smile was dazzling.
His reputation widespread.

Premium Member Well, Blow Me Down

A sailor who loved costume parties
would shout out a wild, “Aye, me hearties!”
This old buccaneer,
role playing with cheer,
got mimicked by all the young smarties.

Gingerbread Man

I miss it
the warm, soft, moist dough,
making frosting clothes, and red hot buttons.
Mimicked "catch me if you can" 
biting off the legs first, now it can't run.
Always saving the head for last to
see it's doom come towards it.
And lastly after it comes milk!

Seven Days of Death

Ghastly halls that lead to Euphoria
Shattered glasses with reflections that mimicked her death
Being hanged but not dead
Sorrowful laughter and slit wrists
Decayed internally but still breathing 
Candy coated poison to seize her thoughts 
And death, to ease her pain.

Premium Member Interstellar

She held illuminations in her eyes.

Mimicked the earth with her skin.

No wonder flowers grew from within.

Adrift in her aura.

Marooned.

Interstellar swoon.

Rendered lunar love language.

Though words could never define.

What was already written in time.

Premium Member Being Mimicked is Annoying

mimicking Lu often copies me
terribly annoying, can't she see?
If I chopped my hair, she would chop hers too
No original thought or idea for Little Lu

It gripes me that she is this way
We used to play, now I stay away
If I broke my arm, she'd be wearing a cast.
Here she comes, so I am running fast.

New Dance Craze

The whole nation
is doing a new dance craze,
you just have to stand up,
wiggle and scratch,
and do a whole lot of shaking…
thanks to a teen named Patti,
who was listening to music
at a picnic,
accidentally sitting in
a fire ant hill,
and got them in her britches,
the whole gang saw her,
stood up, and quickly mimicked!

Premium Member The Tapestries of Fall

Mimicked mosaics, seem stitched at the seams
Plaids of crimson, gold, and tangerine dreams
No mystical myth, of tapestries tall
We're graced by their boughs, the legends of Fall


Poets enamored, with pens on the prod
Kneel to this splendored, coniferous god
Till marmalade skies, withered by weather 
Watch leaves tumble dry, light as a feather

In Shadow

He stands at the edge
Peering through the fence
The silence of solitude roars in his mind
Deep lines on his brow cruelly mimicked in steel
Black shadows lie on the parched sun soaked dust even as they lie across his soul
What evils must a man commit to protect his own
Somewhere the war rages on without him

Portia

How cunning and sly,
This ingenious guy,
Deceitful and shrewd,
The way he wooed,
Appeared to be prey,
Mimicked the day,
With waves of vibration he was able to stay,
Hunting your own kind,
Would be labeled a crime,
But not in the realm of corrupted times,
Instinctive behavior to ruin the race,
This time he stepped into the wrong webs place.

Contentment

Contentment


Being content is a state of mind

Thanking God above for being so kind


Knowing that we’ve been given all things to richly enjoy

Our gratitude should be mimicked by every girl and boy

We’re thankful for our blessings

When we go down on bended knees

When we willingly give to others

That’s when we know that we’ve truly received

Words, Cast From Fingertips

Girl we went fragmentation because
Our thoughts couldn't garner more than
Bits as pieces; but, it never was, a fantasy ?
No Hollywood scripts nor Broadway plays these days....
Albeit Jekyll and Hyde could have mimicked my life: born upon
This wrong side of time ? Reaching into it's hat, with these empty hands
Eight years old again; racing down her ramp ? Are you alright ? Blood, dripping from my lips.

A Forest Song

Along the old and winding path
Unwatched, unheard, unseen
A bird flew swiftly by
A robin red and soft
It sang a mournful song
That trilled and trailed
A tangled melody
The sun shone darkly
Through storm clad boughs
As spring spun gales rushed by
A heighted sensation
Soon mimicked in the small birds aria
Fell quickly cross the path,
That old and winding path
Where trees huddle closely
And whispers become lost
And life continues quietly
Unwatched, unheard, untouched

Harp and Flute

Harp and flute

Fingers bled of love by the strings of the harp,
Eyes filled with tears, mingled in the drops of blood,
As the flute elated sucked and kissed the slaughtered,
Love and hate, tears and blood, such are the broken hearts.

A song of love and sadness poignantly dejected,
The harp so majestically and queenly on it mimicked,
The flute so princely and so kingly on it emoted,
So eternally, beautifully and so perpetually, such achingly is how it hurts.

What Mona Lisa Sees

What the Mona Lisa sees
The artist laid before her
His breath lingers in the air
Staring back and trying to pay honour to her beauty
Paint merges with turpintine to perfume the room
There in his eyes she see it the reflection
that started his fire
Where her perfect lines are mimicked but never are equalled
Then trapped within its confines
Watching art and artist die
Dust becomes her makeup
And tears become her praise
The enigmatic beauty with the enigmatic gaze

First Snow Fall

Snow white crystallic beauty sparkling 

the light shines like a diamond pricless

For you are not to be mimicked

Unique beauty this I admire truly

Lightly prancing you leave my soul dancing 

Shining spinning in this winters light

Fall on me snow ever softly and light

Winter morning I delight

Capture your beauty  for this moment daunting

ever so haunting your memory captured 

Whirling in wintry rapture

Romancing my soul soft crystallic snow...

Premium Member Patience With a Purpose

Patience with a Purpose

swans stood motionless
imitating spray painted flamingos
geese in the distance
mimicked a talk show panel
turtles sunbathed “sans sun block”
carp slithered in shallow mud
pickerel, unable to hide their toothy grins,
slyly awaited passersby
old bull frogs “harrumphed”
exchanging their glory days 
a stick figure Heron posed
patience… with a purpose
                                     ...……..a kayak respectfully floating past
