Trembling and fighting from beneath
causing chaos and fear above
matter on land gets displaced.
Land phone and mobile
Both are fixed on land not mobile
Let the holder stay fixed for a while
To tell me who or what is mobile?
face in my hands
am not on land
am up high near the sky
to lose you is fears
as the planes in motion
there.
TEARS OVER THE OCEAN
There once was a fish named Jelly
He had poisonous goo in his belly
He came on land
And bit my hand
How that sucker hurt, Oh Nellie!
"Wars are fought over
Boundaries drawn in the sand,
Lines which disappear
With the washing of the tides
And shuffling of feet on land."
Wacker doo, wacker doo,
I discovered something new,
Giraffes are so very tall,
Crocs on land have to crawl,
It's such fun at Sydney Zoo.
Night wraps woods,
frenzy fireflies swirl,
webbed live light
snares stillness…
dark stage holds cosmic concert,
star ballet on land.
Outside the mountain I climb
In the mirky waters I swam
I stand tall on land and I walk alone!

Story of frogs, toads, salamanders and newts
Crocodiles, seals, beavers with flutes.
These cold-blooded moist skins
Amphibians with twins
Live on land and sea in custom wet suits
Sky in shades of ash grey
Showers flakes of artwork.
Swirling snow of silence
Smoothly descends dancing.
Serene sheet shines on land,
Sensing in stark stillness
Soft whisper of winter.
More of a sustained quaking
Than was ever felt on land!
Here and herein;
Sea-stood; boated.
Of what, terror-struck, out through
Each rolling hill of a wave
Is, is'nt seen.
Face, foam-clotted.
Cats are superior apex on land
There's a reason they are depicted as godly
The flexibility, the resourcefulness, the agility
They are the perfect package
They don't lack in any areas
Just badass.
Fantastic Farm Which Was Cush
Lived on land and farm which was cush,
And by George last name had been Bush;
Had a hanker,
To people pander;
Enter politics from family received a push.
Jim Horn
Falling night on the woods
Frames ebony onyx canvas
Flares with firefly flicker
Fresco of living light lattice
Flung far in deep darkness
Flashy sky descends on land
Fills it with twinkling stars
Like a ship at sea come to port, I’ve arrived;
Like a landing airplane, I’ve arrived;
On land my train, my bus in a car, I’m here;
I’ve arrived, I’ve arrived

Written words by James Edward Lee Sr.
when our souls met
you were so alive
full of passion and desire
ready to take on the world
now we have drifted apart
you've sailed miles from shore
while i'm standing in the sand on two feet on land
knowing it's over
My footprints painting pictures on land
While walking barefoot in wet sand.
Admiring the patterns on high
Created by clouds up in the sky.
Picking up the coral and shells
That wash ashore on the ocean swells.
If you ever forget you you are
remember, you come from Earth
and are made of star
You were born of sea and sand
and sprouted legs
to walk on land
Next, you'll conquer the sky
Unfurl your wings
and try to fly.
The ghost with the cloak
stares coldly with no eyes
causing lids to shut
life thuds on land
his scythe steals souls and vitality
by the millions
creating profit for his red wine cellar
and in the end
he will stand on top
the days are filled with colors
in all the possible hues
spring through winter, down the years
on land sea or sky
lives immersed in radiance
burnished dawn to ruby dusk
thrill to the vibrant frenzy
'til purple black night

Popeye, the Sailor Man
a confidence trickster who always said, “I can !”
he could do any strenuous task when at sea
on land, he follicked with Queen Bea !
Shame
My foe
you make me
cover my face
when I`m being mocked and
lashed with virulent words,
My legs wobble on the street,
heart racing with unfathomed fear
as if stranded on ~land of vipers,
Unperturbed zeal for success covers you.
Fruit comes from a seed
after caring for a long time on land
Its tree were inside it
see the parents
Adrift, adrift (my usual trip)
In icy, unmapped sea,
A splintered spar my only ship—
I clutch it willfully.
Afloat, afloat, each nerve alive,
I brave what is to be,
Instead of cowering, to but survive
On land, secure, not free.
A rhyme a hymn a prose
a little horny rose
a cliché
long walks on the beach
swimming
splashing
wet hair in hand
mouth under water
she begins to descend
lost to the currents
lands back side up on land
should have let me be
