Forty bugs a'creeping
Forty forty year-olds,
With forty sad life tales.

With their forty ales.

Two year olds leap
before they look
DADDY!
replaces gravity
then writhe laughing
from your arms
AGAIN!
I’ll always catch you
for these moments
pass too soon.

She sat among the branches of a tree,
A lonely girl who wanted most to leave.
But eight-year olds have nowhere else to go,
So a weeping tree became her secret friend.

PICK A NUMBER
I’ve had ONE wife – TWICE
THREE kids – ONE of each
4/5’s of a quart
6 pack abs
7-UP
an Olds 88
a 9 iron
and a TENS unit.

Untold laughter shaking her loudly
Diabolical and ruthless
Ninety-year-old’s privilege
Fooling almost no one
Delighting her cat
Smirking with mirth
Partner in
Friendship
Crime

Never Hit a Potamus
Never hit a Potamus,
on his grey brown nose.
Cos' if you do, he'll flatten you,
by jumping on your toes.

Away with weeping
Away with goofs
Away with drags
Away with fret
Away with former self
Away with former ways
Away with former sins
Away with former works
Away with former deeds
Way gone

Girls take it serious
Boys goof around, they act like 2-year olds
Stomp all around, laughing things that aren’t that funny,
Not taking life seriously
They laugh and poke fun not knowing
How they will soon be.

Mental prowess has zip to do with age or experience
Some people’s buckets are cups.
Their dendrite strains are much shorter than others.
I have met six-year-olds who are wizards.
Being raised by a teaspoon for brain.

Tug of War
the three and four-year-olds had a terrific time
playing tug of war with a rope
all of them trying to help their friends
pulling a variety of directions
no matter what team they were on
hilarious to watch

Skinny kids
Wrinkled clothes
Crooked windows
Non-symmetrical
Snowman slightly off center
The “Olds”
Wrinkled fenders
A round-headed driver
A teetering toboggan
Hanging from its roof
The artists
Sipping hot cocoa

Fourteen-year-olds
Always
Ask questions
Fourteen-year-olds
Always
Try to understand others' lives
Fourteen-year-olds always
Ask
The wrong people
Fourteen-year-olds already
Have forgotten
The important things in life

Insanely bad mood
Snippy and snarling
He is four-years-old
Fighting his nap time
Baby sitter folds
He falls asleep
at six o’clock
when parents come
to take him home
grouchy boy
cannot eat
wants his bed
routine
broken
sad

A journey to the past,
For a weekly shop to last,
The grocer knew everyone,
When the baby boomers had begun,
We might get some biscuits broken,
Or an ice block, as a token,
Our olds did it on 2 quid per week,
Better times than this, they did seek.

A place of peace and quiet land
We grew together and made so much fun
In every minute under the sky
We played as if tomorrow never comes.
I wish the time stood still that day
Before you leave and moved away
My childish heart that never olds
A part of you I forever will hold.

Time and again what you write is my FAVE
They stay in my memory and never FADE
You don’t know the difference your words have MADE
You always choose just the right MODE
Whether its one of the olds or one of the MODS
Your writing is truly a gift from the GODS
Into my favourites another one GOES

There is nothing like two year olds
They are like robots, only repeating what they are told
we are often in awe of some of their sayings
some of their words stop us from turning pages
they jump, play and just run wild
we look at them with wonder and smile
they came from us, but we ask whose child?

Peculiar Petunia was very strange indeed,
I mean how many six-year-olds would choose to wear tweed?
On the first day of school, in an effort to impress,
Petunia chose a hand-woven olive green dress,
The other little girls wore lace in pink and red,
But Petunia knew the value of a harder-wearing thread

Tuned myself to a beat
only i heard
leaving reality
entered the absurd
looking at the mirror from the other side
Dying in the awk ward
the obvious scene
was obscene
Painting depRavED and DistuRbED
to be read
Swapping that for this
How olds the rain
Wheres the wind going
Digging in the Earths earth
hoping for some worth

Limerick : Once a Great Doubter climbed Jack’s Bean Stalk
for the raped 5-year-old Indian girl next door
Once a Great Doubter climbed Jack’s Bean Stalk
Cried : « For what Crime 5-year-old was debauched ? »
He got no true hearing
Slid down no more doubting
Now stalks 4-year-olds on dark side-walk.
