Have another drink, old boy,
It will fill you up with joy.

We'll drink it all as it is here....

The ugly old tomcat was feral
Rumors abound that he’s sterile
But when the moon’s high
All the hot kitties sigh
Tease that old boy at your peril

I see the fingernails of a nine-year-old boy
at the end of my hands
They make me laugh.
How did he get them away from me?
And how did he reattach them?...

Mud between my toes,
It is your 9-year-old-boy-side, my husband sings out.
We have been together for fifty years.
Have I taught this man nothing?
I am a girl....

Mud between my toes.
My nine-year-old-boy my husband sings.
We have been together fifty years.
Have I taught him nothing?
Nine-year-old girls get dirty too.
Duh!...

when the king was told that his old-boy friends’ billions were hurting
that his people were starving 
and that some unworthy workers were dying 
he proclaimed 
let them eat red meat...

Four o´clock in the morning.

Cold, alone and trying to sleep.

The bench at the railroad ticket office serves as the old boy cradle,

covered just by all the whole dreams of his life as a cooing blanket.

There lies The Drifter...

o 4 1 naughty the old boy did say,
thinking about sex, 
before she wandered away, 
but he missed out that night, 
forever and aye....
oh for one naughty, 
no never that way.... 

Don Johnson

bit of slang Aussie maybe 1960s...

A Marine kneeling in front of a boy
A seven year old boy with hands extended
barely containing his sorrow
Presenting him with a folded flag
With quivering chin, fighting back tears
In acknowledgement that his dad
…Has no tomorrow…

I'm dancing in the snow
And the cold it doesn't hit me
Never mind I'm barefoot now
And the madness doesn't clothe me.

I'm happy-- ain't that something?
And this season I'm feeling joy
Belief is a treasure I'm gifted this year
And hope a day old boy....

My son was the perfect 
Gerber Baby 
So tiny and sweet
He was only 7 pounds even
Me and his father loved him
At first sight 
Now my boy is a healthy and happy 14 year old boy
Who brings us joy everyday 
He was indeed 
The best 
Gerber Baby 
Ever

Mom, today we studied simile
   What is simile? 
A sentence that uses like or as to compare two things

Like a green car riding on the road is like a running vine?

Or  A red car riding on the road is like a running red rose?

Yeah mom just like that!! woohoo!...

A fifteen year old boy
Wakes up in a warm 
Bed
After a night of hanging out with
Friends
thinking
“damn,”
“ I have school today”

A five minute drive away
A boy no older than
Fourteen
Awakes in a card board box
Smiling, thinking,
“I'm still alive.”

This is not an illusion....

Crying...with a wet diaper 
The two-year-old boy weeps 
Mom and dad still sleep 
His five-year-old sister awakes- hyper 
She thinks- "I'll give him a cookie" 
The boy stops bawling- good thinks, by the rookie

My, he really is something, my egotistical friend -
Enigmatic and choleric he will be till the very end;
Youth, the loss of it, causes him no alarm, he's just so cool,   
Outwardly, creaky bones and all, he still acts like a young bull.
Keep going, old boy, I pray, till the next grandchild comes your way....

There she goes again the ten-year-old boy said.
We all stared at the empty house.
None of us knew what he was seeing.
No one else saw anything.

The phantom ghost took another walk by the upstairs window.
Didn’t you see that? the child asked.
The rest of us saw nothing.
Not being tuned in the way he was....

Why insensibly annoy
The three-year-old boy
With tales about Ancient Troy
That does gaiety destroy,
When you can his vivacity buoy
With some blue-eyed toy
Or a much sweetened soy
That heightens a child’s joy;
Or before him act a decoy
Or some crazy song employ
About a girl unprofitably coy
The Pure Gold, a sweetened soy
Tales about Troy, The Alloy....

She is freezing but she gets into one more car.
It has been a slow night.
She will help this lonely man feel less lonely
And she will have more money to feed her
Waiting six-year-old boy.
He is hungry.
And so is she.
If she has just a little more they will have a 
Better Christmas.
She makes lively conversation.
She is sweet.
But he is not lonely
And she never makes it home....

Everybody likes flowers right,
Except children who were violated in bedrooms with flowered wallpaper.
Oh.
 
Everyone loves faeries right?
Except a sensitive young twelve-year-old boy who was called one.
Right.
 
Everyone likes to nap, right?
Have you ever met a two-year old?
 
Everyone is the craziest word ever.
It should be eliminated.
 
Unless you are speaking of air, water, and food....

Me and my pal
Snoopy so cute
Frolicking in the park
He is licking my boot
This time of year,early Fall
Before the snow flies
We are both playing ball
Kissing the dew of park grass
As I roll over
he is wagging tongue on my ass
OH-the fun!!
An ancient smile from the old boy
Giving me the Treasure
Of a 5 yr old's joy
It is a Happy time that we can recall
Popcorn for 10 cents
While enjoying dog BALL...

A twelve year old boy  
  stands covered in ‘mud’

What the plasterers call
  cement

His Grandfather came
  and offered a job
  
For each hour,
  he’d pay fifty cents

The buckets were heavy,
  the scaffolding high

As he kept those mortar boards
  full

And at the end of that summer,
  more man than a boy

With new confidence
 —his future to cull

(Villanova Pennsylvania: February, 2018)...
