Insane swept away, banished
are assisted in life by
crazy people on occasion... graduates !!
childhood memory
grandpa smoked all his life
throwing butts in yard
lucky strikes he loved
and a beer on occasion
that's a farmer's life
Horn Kitty Limerick Two
What is a kind kitty for
Us always love and adore
On occasion rub his fir
Like listening to him purr
Trump's bad behavior ignore.

Write Poems On Occasion
You seem to write poems on occasion
Regardless of life or in what station;
More effort exert;
It won't hurt;
Write more poems while on vacation.
Jim Horn
I lock the door
to the world on occasion...
but I don't recluse myself
inside...
I just concede myself refuge
for a while... !
Evoke Versus Invoke and Provoke
Sometimes we will on occasion invoke
With the final result being to evoke
Going against grain;
And being a big pain;
If opposed a person this will provoke.
Jim Horn
In Ireland, the snakes caused quite a squawk;
they were green, pagan, of Druid stock
On occasion there came
one St. Patrick by name
who drove out those snakes with a shamrock.
Modest and Like Living In Shack
Can be modest and like living in a shack,
And what you give out will receive back;
Grass would weed;
Never did need;
On occasion, ability to love you may lack.
Jim Horn
Was your jaw ever hit at some watering place
Yes, I have on occasion hit a fist with my face
His incorrect answer,
Scar tissue, not cancer.
That Doctor was too quick to cut to the chase.
Sorrow
On occasion I find the passing loss of something un-named
Something found and yet unbiddened
A some thing of the past or future or present I know not what
Yet sorrow it is
A feeling both sad and strange
Unusual fear, I've suffered from on occasion,
especially, for airplane flights long duration;
It's the fear of not having
enough to read, passing
time tough; forgot to carry books, caused frustration.

At times God fills my heart with a shout,
and the things I think I can do for Him, I do.
On occasion the Devil tries to create some doubt,
and if I believe I can’t I’m usually right too.
On occasion, I have,
Obsessed over weird things.
Odd and unique doodads.
Old or new will do too.
Orange, purple, red, blue,
Objects are welcome; an
Oasis for strange stuff.

Vibrant in life
Intelligent to boot
Rigid and lonely
Graceful but rude
Objective on occasion
Loving and true
Intriguing and mysterious
Balancing too
Romantic and charming
Argumentative and blue
Inspired by Danielle White's "Acrostic Astrology" contest.
At the edge of life
in the center of the paper I write,
poetry on occasion drifts from the world
on occasions the center of attention...
It depends on the landscape, or the scene... !
Nota always que Live it, mostly we only
describe things with abstract eyes.....!
I don't know that a poet
has life outside his poetry –
Oh!--on occasion
he may run with an exterior
pack...but bones of their kills
soon draw him back; not a
soul to be found, once all meat
stripped away – little real
difference between hunters
and their prey –
Once upon a time there was
a ticklish dragon
The knights would tickle his belly
And he would roll around in laughter
He would giggle and hoot
And on occasion perform an embarrassing toot
He was such a well loved dragon
and there will never be another like him
Forget To Indent
Many poems wrote and may have meant
Along with email messages I have sent
And on occasion a few letters wrote
Around my computer sometimes tote
But as usual did forget to indent.
Do they still do indentation
Without a further explanation.
Jim Horn
Speakers and writers on joy or great sorrow,
help human hearts deal with lies and the truth.
They offer an easing from etchings of tears,
and help on occasion to alleviate fears.
Their hand or a hug, love’s presence surround,
add warmth and compassion with silent sound.
A cat pursuing mice
seems never
to think twice;
an owl swooping on prey
shows no thought
of delay--
Then enters man--
expressing volition,
a higher moral ground
of conscious
contrition--
yet kills for sport
as well as nutrition…
Oh! on occasion
for God
and country….

On occasion,
He confessed, he had been bested.
But never,
did he feel like he was a bruiser.
He’s an optimist,
and thinks his opponent just got "lucky".
Only a pessimist,
would view himself as a loser.
wonder on occasion if they speak
Soft words whispered into soundless space
For if they do
I hear them, softly
In the sounds of moonlight
Unseen ripples kissing a shore
The applause of lightly clapping leaves
Flower petals giggling of a summer’s eve
The purr of distant need
Listening
Reader, be warned by deep scars - deceit.
If you must fight to have your own way,
pause on occasion to consider,
what do I want to know?

written for Liberum Divisa Poetry Contest by Gregory R. Barden
a four-line stanza from my earlier piece, With Regret written December 24, 2012
Love, is a journey,
A well, travelled road,
It can be, light as air,
On occasion, a heavy load.
Love, can't be touched,
However, it can be felt,
It can be an easy game,
With the hand that's dealt.
Love, can hurt sometimes,
It can ease away the pain,
Turning the world upside down,
Time and time again.
A beautiful time, the slightest breeze
We yearn to be more than lost
Your charm so delightful, alluring
Warm to my every thought
The beauty of life's song
Sings so sweet in our minds
On occasion our souls will play
Among the ruins within our hearts
Delighted in everyday life
Intimately peaceful with every breath
