Semenary
Whenever the wife needs a break
From necking when I'm on the make
Her hammer and stake
Just make my heart ache 
And terrifies my garter snake...

Sir Punt
The Garden of Eden had a snake
That slithered around when on the make
It found that Eve
Fit like a sleeve
'til Adam's apple snagged the mistake...

Sam Adams Is a Fake
Sam Adams was a quack, a fake
Not there to protect but to take
He was on the make
He was a total flake
Make no mistake
As he was such a rake.
A real snake....

Double-O Heaven
James Bond still moonlights on the make
But found too many boobies fake
Spy C came along
And shrivelled his Dong*
She got hot dog but wanted steak

Politicans
Self interest abandons us all
Politicians on the make
shades of muddied truth
flicker like worm casts 
Information over lorded,
lingering secret conversations
in dusty corridors
The consequences need no mentioning
The reasons I can no longer comprehend...

Premium Member My First English Quintain
It is with a tinge of disdain
And some humor in my left cheek 
That I pen my first English Quintain
Poetic advice is what I seek
Sir, could you please take a quick peek?

If I am on the make-sense track
I would appreciate knowing it
If it has fallen on its back 
Please let me know with clever wit
Issue me no flack or slack, you chit....

Premium Member Big Mistake
The odd way you looked 
At me when I booked 
Our honeymoon flight 
I expected tears
Joyous ecstasy. 

Then, I first knew ... 
Did not know you, 
Slow on the make 
My sad mistake! 

Held my breath 
“Until death 
Doth us part.” 

Pre-nup? 
What’s up? 
 
Broke!

Premium Member Hold the Peas
Baby doesn't like the 'peases'.
She spits them out, as she pleases.
I still have that childish vice
But spitting peas isn't nice.

Avoiding them is hard to do.
They're in the pot pie and the stew.
So, I pick them out one by one
But pea-picking is not fun.

Give me a break. I cannot take
To even smell them on the make.
Cold in salad or piping hot,
Hold the peas. Peas porridge, not!

Full Moon
The full moon
Is not showing off it shines
For no one in particular
For you and me and caterpillars
Climbing a tree
 The new moon is  growing fast 
A teenager on the make
But when it nearly full it loses
Interest in the near things 
And just shines 
As it is the only thing, it can do
Reflecting the sun
The moon is a secondary sun
Trying to warm the night 
Nevertheless, lovers swoon 
And the werewolf lurks in the bushes...
