At rest during the day
Prone in an unaware way...

When there is no kind of faith
Sad for many children...

Notoriety
Limericks are notoriously hard to do
They have to be ribald but clean too
I tried as I might
To get one just right
Notoriety may come now from you...

Sacrificing and shimmering
Notoriously 
Ominous
Winterwonderland
Salute to the elements
Together we stand
Outside in the blizzard
Rendering all that we can
Mesmerized by the land...

snaky
                           treacherous creep
                        angry mean nasty bad
                        notoriously unfriended 
                                 lone jerk...

Panther paces the ground 
he is then most alluring jet of black 
Very beautiful he ravages his
Prey he lurks 
When he looks that way 
Panther is notoriously elegant
When he paces like that...

notoriously silly ideas parade in my mind
I pluck three out, the fourth is a terrific find.
my muse is getting prissy
listen to me missy!
You better not try to stifle, hide, shelter or bind....

Mediterranean’s melancholy melodious megaphone
Notoriously navigated Neptune’s neutrality zone.
Overladen, overworked, and overthrowing Orion’s own,
Permitted planet Pluto to persecute Perry’s corn-pone....

A
sexy
blonde bombshell
fresh and footloose
notoriously 
enticing, ensnaring
dragged me by my nose-ring
bewailing, bemoaning made me
walk down the aisle towards the altar
intentionally intimidating.

misunderstandings are often rampant
hasty assumptions can be notoriously incorrect
learning to actively listen is the unity challenge
caring enough to empathize and learn
changes things in incredibly wonderful ways...

Janus-faced, Jekyll and Hyde—ever revealing, ever concealing,
Uncompromising, stubborn yet humble and yielding
Notoriously sly yet sunny; playful and youthfully mature,
Ephemeral in spirit, fickle in love, nomadic in nature.

Sunlit ducks
Flashing downy amid the buttercups
Lily ponds notoriously absent

Swimming with optimism
Following their mama
Hopeful they will all end up
In a dandelion patch

Tulips up ahead
Color of seventy's happy face
Showing you love whether you deserve it or not...

The scratching wakes me up
Ridiculously unsatisfying
Yet notoriously put there by shingles
Or excruciatingly painful allergen.
A scream for help

Time is in my way
Sorry I sid not sneak my Excedrin pm into hospital
Morphine is not cutting it.
Each time more insistent 
On a more potent drug...

Striped lighthouse was thrilled to share her cloud
Young man’s optimistic attitude was notoriously refreshing
Bet there is a fishing pole around here, he mused.
It came into his hand instantly. She shone her light.
Sharing her cloud with one who dared, one who hoped.
One who believed in wishes....

Wiley Willie the wandering witch 
Rides against the moon and gives it an itch
Humans in the house are so unaware
But I am telling you – beware! Beware!

She has bested creatures in disguise.
We know to fear her in the harvest moon.
If you don’t see her she will snatch you soon!...

Is Hotel Cecil cursed?
A portal to hell?
How many have died there?
Accidentally or by murder and suicide?
It is the most notoriously haunted hotel in America.
Associated with macabre incidents, serial killers.
Downtown Los Angeles is host to these seven hundred rooms.
Shall I book you a room? There is always a vacancy.
Diabolical laughter....

Butterfly swoops in
Black like a bat but a touch skinnier
Moves at an incredible gliding pace

I am astounded at her charismatic flair
She fills the porch with momentous beauty
For a mega instant, then she is gone

A fleeting look
Then butterfly disappears 
Notoriously mystical and surreal

Was this a dream?
A spirit?
A treasured blink....

Bean bags are jumping on her head they said
I wondered what was going on, for it was Ned.
He is notoriously for saying things untrue.
He can make Granddaddy’s face turn red and blue

Whose head? I asked. Your head was the reply.
Now I knew it was nothing but a buzzard’s lie.
There is nothing jumping on my skull today.
So saying, I turned and flounced away....

Angela is a sensitive woman easily hurt
Notoriously sets up a feeling wall to keep hers in, and yours out.
Generosity unsurpassed if she lets you have a glimmer or peek into her world.
Enthusiastically champions her friends, but makes them sparingly,
Lets her emotions out gradually, after a lot of soul-searching, 
As long as and only if she feels your trust, admiration and love....

Queen of Cats dancing your feline fling
What other joys will your exuberance bring?
I watch your partner as he gives you a swing.
He wants your attention, but you have to ring.

Queen of Cats in your harem of maids.
Safe in the palace, far from the evil everglades.
I hope things work out for you in your suit of spades.
Things are notoriously suspicious; will she make the grades?...

Zora Zebra does not know how to be subtle does she?
I looked at my cousin, who is snotty notoriously.
What’s going on? I asked this uppity Georgia peach.
Look down there she said, nodding toward the beach.

Zora was coming up for another breath of sea water air.
I noticed right away that there was something added there.
A boob job on a zebra! What? I said to my snooty cousin.
In a week, she said, we will see a dozen....

We burned a bunch of matches
My buddy Dane and me
Then we burned an outhouse up
The smell was way ugly!

Next we burned a little shed.
Was not me, we fibbed notoriously together.
Then we burned my sister’s clothes
Because she had worn my favorite sweater

My grandpa spanked us both hard as he could.
This is the days when neighbors would
Get together and give all the kids a licking.
He also gave us both a kicking....
