Let the holder stay fixed for a while 
To tell me who or what is mobile?

am not on land
am up high near the sky
to lose you is fears
as the planes in motion
there.

He had poisonous goo in his belly
He came on land
And bit my hand
How that sucker hurt, Oh Nellie!

Boundaries drawn in the sand,
Lines which disappear
With the washing of the tides
And shuffling of feet on land."

I discovered something new,
Giraffes are so very tall,
Crocs on land have to crawl,
It's such fun at Sydney Zoo.

In the mirky waters I swam
I stand tall on land and I walk alone!

Premium Member Frogs Toads Salamanders and Newts

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

Premium Member Snow


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.

Cats

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 Cush Farm

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.

Premium Member I'Ve Arrived

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

Premium Member It's Over

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

Premium Member God's Tapestry

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.

You Come From Earth

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.

Premium Member Power of Death

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

Premium Member Everywhen You Roam

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

Shame

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

Fruit comes from a seed			
                                after caring for a long time on land			
			
                                           Its tree were inside it 			
                                               see the parents

Treading Water (Willingly)

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 Cliche

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

Premium Member A Storehouse of Diamonds

    A storehouse of diamonds
      mired in human flotsam
    be it on the sea, on land
      or the alleys of Amsterdam

    Each gem a rough jewel
      yearning to be polished
    The world heaves a sigh ~
      as they fester impoverished

Majestic Beauty

All the world is beautiful - on land and in the sea.
The animals bring fun - and much needed tranquility!

Share this treasured secret - with everyone you know!
