No mo' mowing

The grass is dying

My frown is upside down
I feel like a silly clown

No mo', no mo' mowing


Summer Serenade

The morning birdsongs,
The mowing, planes in the sky;
The sound of sprinklers.
   Ice cream truck circles the block;
   The kids yelling and screaming.

His impatience was keenly showing
Always in sandy land that needed no mowing
He yearned for Iowa where it was snowing

Made mowing and maintenance hard.
The blade would get stuck
When nonsense it struck,
The handle from hyperbole jarred.

Aliens

The alien saucer fell hard.
It landed right there in my yard.
    I'd give them jobs mowing
    or cooking and sewing
but none of them has a Green Card.

no rain brings no weeds 
grass ceases to survive 
like clockwork it rains 

rain brings many weeds 
grass becomes green once again 
daily mowing starts

i'll be damned and i'll be forlorn
but I've never seen a green sheep shorn
like mowing the grass
off a chia pet's back
they say that's the way they were born

Outside

I go outside to enjoy nature
Something I haven't done in a while.
The birds chirping the bees buzzing 
My neighbors are mowing their grass.
It reminds me to appreciate the small things.

Wine Time

Ten boats rafted together,
Wine time, no mowing the lawn,
Twenty fast friends forever,
Ready for challenges of next dawn!

Premium Member Wallowing

Wallowing with worries of yesteryear 
Is mowing lawns no longer there
Memory moves us where we yearn - 
A universe to which we cannot return –
To exhume corpses of our youth
And reverse adamantine truth

Premium Member Bawdy Limerick Ii

Her lady garden needed a mowing
His love juices were readily flowing 
He made it his mission
To get in position
Now his seed he is happily sowing

Yellow Grass

Yellow grass Yes

If we have off yellow grass,
no need for the mower pass,
perhaps i'm a donkey ass,
don't like a mowing.

Communist View

I cross alone the starve town in the night.

Ghosts at windows look the gray of the sky.

Cold and nobody is in the streets.

My footsteps ring on sidewalk

and the shadow lean more and more.

The death with her mowing

comes in the town.

Premium Member The World At Two Miles An Hour

On an August afternoon
mowing a large patch of grass,
all around me barn swallows 
are swooping, diving, snap rolling,
feasting on insects stirred up
by my mower.
As I pass one sitting
on the top wire of our fence,
our blue eyes meet
in mutual admiration.

The Light, Light, Light, Quite a Might

The Light, Light, Light
     Is Quite A Might, .... God's Forth;

And The Grass Mowed Fast,
     My Feet, Leg's, Back, .. Do Sore!

Tomorrow It Could Rain;
     So Today My Work's Attained;

Squared's The Mowing Path;
      With A Song's Work Task, .... I, Bring!
