The Feather

Don't know where to hault, 
If you find me in your neighborhood, 
Just let me know whether am lost or not!

Whispering willow
A haven for tiny birds
She weeps to hide nests
Rustling leaves fly on the breeze
Confounding neighborhood cats.

Neighborhood Narcissist

Engagement is tempting,
But ignoring them
Is far better,
They’ll probably
Find new victims,
Yet with time,
Light crushes darkness.

Watch out for neighborhood
pet.

when we will be wet
be sure that you pay each debt
never forget pet

Running, jumping, and playing.
Biking in the neighborhood,
Yelling Loudly down the streets,
Not ready for school to start.

soon revelation of homes 
secreted away —

Premium Member Copperhead In the Leaves

but a copperhead can blend in perfectly.

Every neighborhood has a pile of leaves.

There was a boy in my neighbourhood,
Nothing he seemed to understood.
He was rather dull.
He was much like an empty skull
But, brilliance caught up with adulthood.

and the time is a quarter to three

Wore a slip on her date with Randall

When she came in at two

Is when the gossip flew

And became the neighborhood scandal

Who spurned every young man at her door

With just one little kiss

But who has to go worst
