Childhood Echoes

Remains, though tedious walked
Of one Time-beat, droopy
For what of its sound was thrown up
A neighbourhood, joy-free.
Form: Rhyme


Tutu Ring

The wife loves the neighbourhood lads
And shares with them the latest fads
She shows them how
To milk a cow
So they all know how to be dads

Only Yesterday, I Fully Understood,

Only yesterday, I fully understood,
That I live in a richest neighbourhood,
When I saw a neighbour's tiny dog,
Dressed  much better than me, during a walk.

A Man Called Adebayo

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.

The wife can interpret wet dreams
(The neighbours all knew that, it seems)
They all think its grand
That she'll lend an hand
Whilst teenagers research X-tremes

HOPEFULS

Three hopeful receivers of treats
Went roaming the neighbourhood streets.
And, though not really scared,
All the neighbours prepared,
So they went home weighed down with sweets

My Neighbourhood

Frozen streams are calm incidents of winter
When lean, broken stems seem dead and gone
But the way things stand now in the nearby minster,
Canticles accompanied by spawning candles are worn.

As they say, there goes the neighbourhood A nefarious group of seniors, up to no good Swearing and cursing Belching and coercing Causing distress for all the young girliehood

A Jungle, Across This Street

Met at the jungle border
A rough neighbourhood
Who's death-defying claimed him
By a lion's roar.
Protective of its own grounds
Just across this street
That heard fearsomely alike
A cat does encore.

October Bliss

I am sick of eating those huge orange gourds cooked in pies -
And my little garden is choc-a-bloc with pumpkins this year;
But when carved out, they are the talk of the whole neighbourhood.

Neighbourhood She Grew Up In

Shocks more than it ought
Face, cordial, lit.
Darker, for what now looms up
More in fear of it
Way of the stranger. Paved. Cracked!
Home to shop's. Too long!
Once for such, a pleasanter
World-age moved along.
Form: Rhyme

Hide And Seek For Real

That thrill, tree-hid, pants more
Near your catching
Within this shade, longer for night
Hear what's matching!

Now in earnest, plays which 
Neighbourhood game.
As some escaped convict. No child!
Nor chum to name!

Street Cred

Houses on parade
Guards to civilisation
A great divide between man and space
Escapism opposed to reality

Sentinels stand at either end of street
Neighbourhood watch
Dangerous tongues gossip
Prepare for another onslaught
