a worm and hook plop
orange koi gather around
like nosy neighbors...

        with a nosy laugh

A Neanderthal
with intent on graffiti
dabbed a red nose daub
on stone face of granite stone
prints for nosy sleuth fiends...

on the lawn callous clouds plied,
waving sewn stars by and by...

Bird that glows amber 
Shines even in baddest weather 
Even if it's in still straddle 
It attracts the nosy feeble 
To have a bite of its apple

Nosy thinks he knows my heart, he peaks around the corner,
If there were no secrets to his spying ways, the guilt wouldn't weigh on his shoulders...

To My Secret Admirerer......

Here I am
having stared down death
listening
to this purile crap
trapped by nosy neighbours
trading inanities
without a thought
to my recent survival
of a massive heartattack....

Fur on my cat
Wish I had it 
Imagine that

Fuzzy and soft
Stuck to my skin
Flat and aloft

Warm and cozy
Happiness mine
Snuggling nosy

Licking I wash
Puking I pout
This dream I squash...

thinking out loud can be quite dangerous
no one likes being quoted
by nosy eavesdroppers

Nosy and bothersome 
  Nagging Nelly nit picked
    needing to meddle, with
      nary a thought, as if
    nothing could prevent her
  nonstop, needling tongue from
notable annoyance.

Know why our phones are called “cell phones”
Because we are prisoners no matter what time zone
Nosy listeners can only hear
One side using both ears 
We're even able to talk while sitting on the throne...

The journalist may be 
nosy and noisy,
but must be fair and 
truthful as he can be.

     His demanding art 
     requires him to be so.

Between public matter 
and private affair,
the lawful fine distinctions 
he must know!...

In Ecuador the delicious ripe bananas are not one color
There are yellow, green and red ones according to brother.
Which ones are the tastiest? Asked my nosy stepmother.
Whichever one you are eating this minute, answered my brother....

Merry blue dressed Bob, the builder,
Please return my reddish toy rooster,
I’ll give you my toy elephant,
A bubbly grey buoyant infant,
He is a long nosy mister.

even a nose becomes a rose
to long at the wine it glows

as a nation without God
becomes only temporal sod

all the gross sides of life
generate the unmerciful strife

my God, my God
glows the nosy roses
of soulless sod

Poppy picked the petals off a pink and pretty posey 
Nathan knew the nonsense known only by those nosy 
Sally saw the sunshine shimmering on the sea 
Billy bought the butter but never brought the Brie
Tommy treated Tilly because it's time for tea...

It's the era of the teen
Nosy parents are just plain mean!

Don't get what I want to do
Grounded? It's just like a zoo!

But although parents can be tough
Without them life is a bit rough!

When all the rearing has been done
A true adventure has begun!...

Nosy eyes always watch me like gold 
That could be gone in a blink of eye 
Meanwhile, they got stuck 
Forgetting that they too could be diamond 
If they only focus more on their own problems 
Than in minding much other people 
That they don't even know

taunted trees drunk
fostered felon gulp
bounty breeze served
leering lusty lurch
saucy summer tossed
per punctured pores

pruning pulpy puke
altering vying view
dark dances drew

nosy nature smirks
moaning mockery's verge
dainty drips athirst

same mystic malady 
belching feelings breed.

    Retirement’s made up to look rosy
      ‘Look back on a life lived well’
    Pardon me for being so nosy, but
       that's a surefire prescription for hell

    Nothing to do but ‘look back’
       paves the way for a future pitch-black
    Look forward, make plans, stay connected
       Avoid the road to becoming dejected

What is it to me if
The teenage girl next door
Leaves on a date dressed up
Like a downtown whore?
If her brother wears his cap
With the bill in the back
And their father drives up
In a ratty old hearse Cadillac?
Why do I let the smallest
Things annoy me so?
I think I would move away
If I had some place to go.

She's "concerned" that my mess is immense
"I work late." Is my latest defense
Yes, my yard is a wreck
But IF you must peck
Your big NOSE might get stuck in my fence

So you KNOCKED my troublesome trooper?
Tell ya what you prim party-pooper
I will warn you once more
Poke your head through MY door?
I'll slam it right square on your snooper!...

I walk through the fields of butterflies and start to feel ROSY,
I think of all the  s p l e n d o r  in my life and I begin to MOSEY-
As I see the little girl pick medallions I start to get NOSY,
so I  m e a n d e r  towards her and hand her a colorful POSY.
