Premium Member Silhouettes Maigc 9

You tried to rape my pockets,
saw everything but my citrine.
Two feet away is as good as it gets,
do not try and approach me.
I urge you not to place bets,
I’m wielding a black tourmaline dagger.
It could cut out your eye sockets 
leaving a line sleek and clean. 
Mind your manners and the silhouettes.

Remember when our mothers said, “Be careful to mind your manners When waving ego-fed banners; Remembering where you were bred, And, don’t let it go to your head!"

A Penny For Your Thoughts

Stepping stones
& Ginger Ale
Barbie dolls 
with eyes to stare.
Lightning dances,
to different strokes.
More to Love
Much too close.
Speak your mind
& mind your manners.
Do what your told,
find the right answer.
Put it away for now,
just rest your crown.
Another high-hope,
is another let-down.
Money well spent is on
what was never bought
& i believe its called,
a penny for your thoughts.

Welcoming Frankenstorm

Welcome, my hodgepodge, vicious friend,
no need to breathe at my window.
In less than a day you intend
to shatter it with a raged blow.

No cause to slobber like a brute
turning fall bright leaves into boats,
nor drive my maples to uproot
daring them to morph into floats.

Mind your manners please, you’re my guest,
throwing rubbish around is rude
(and childish at the very best).
Do your best to contain your mood.

Premium Member Drive with Caution

Signs and warnings out and about
reminders for caution and safety on the roads

We know sunday drivers are a menace
apparently red squirrels drive slowly
while the black ones drive too fast

Chipmunks on their bicycle hog the road
and it's not smart to tailgate skunks
it's always wise to mind your manners

So stay alert and be considerate
share the road ~ 'arrive alive' the motto
