Premium Member Chill Spring

solo
  i don’t know    the words
the bird sings
   they land   gently
on my ears
           paired up
with the wind chime

           circulation
  wide open    doors -
full-out chill Spring

Premium Member A Lesser Man Would Defeat

    Archaic, outmoded, 
      ‘gauche,’ obsolete

    O, the invective employed
      a lesser man would defeat

    Yet unintimidated, he held his ground
      for he knew his principle was sound

    Adam viewed the fish, the animals, the birds 
      (paired up so nicely, he perceived) 
    Then, whoosh! out rushed his shocking words

    'Please, for a partner with whom to conceive
       I request MY complement, a lady named Eve'

Premium Member That Other Duck Thing

I now can hear the robins sing, thankfully it's almost spring. The ducks that camped here in the snow are very few now, where'd they go? I'm always consistent with their feeding but very few now are actually eating. The mallards that come are very sparse, the cardinals and squirrels eat the seeds that I toss. If on occasion I spot a duck, it appears that these mallards are all paired up. Oh yes, of course, it's almost spring. There busy now doing that other duck thing.

Premium Member Teen Town Dance - Dwm

We were paired up by Teen Town
A TV show from Des Moines
Nancy and Ed were there, our idols

They had us all line up.
No one thought about height.
They lined the boys on one side
The girls on the other

I was in seventh grade.
My sister got a nice short guy
I got the tallest boy ever born
Worst time ever

I was staring at his belt buckle
Frankly I do not know 
Which one of us 
Was the most horrified
