Fallacy

Politicians are true to their word 
Something that's very seldom heard 
I often wonder why 
Is it pie in the sky 
Maybe my thinking is blurred.

Skywriting

skywriting 
pie in the sky 
dreams of 
you and I
still together 
like we were 
once upon a time
in a land far far away
stuck in the land of 
yesterday

If I win the lottery
What sin will even tempt me;
Will the seven deadly attempt to sway me?

Perhaps I will simply sashay away,
And fill the universe with green!

Shared my Eighty-Fifth Birthday-
Ages one to five-

Must never doubt I'll be there!

Fountain of Youth, El Dorado, pie in the sky - 
long odds bets and stakes are high.
Still, people cry...and betting will not cease
till there's a world of love and peace.

Joe Manchin is nobody's fool
He will not recognize Bernie (Biden) Sanders' rule

  Creating 'green jobs' out of pie-in-the-sky

Pie In the Sky

pie in the sky 
hope for a future 
with you in it
can not let it 
go no matter 
how unrealistic 
i know keeping 
hope alive is 
at this point a
total waste of 
my time

Sweet sun is setting scarlet as red fruit on high,
In a sizzling beauteous exit-apple pie in the sky!

Starlit reverie

A crystal skyline in the azure air,
Where wishes dance and spirits dare.
I stretch my hands toward stars that gleam,
Yet find my hopes are but a dream.
A radiant glow, a whispered sigh,
That shimmering pie in the sky.

Pie in the sky!

I dream of golden riches, heavy sigh,
A crusty golden pie that drifts on by,
With every single wish, I tap my chin,
And marvel if it’s time to win.
But when I check, it’s just my cat,
Who stole my piece, oh fancy that!

Pie in the sky

Outlandish and fantastical
I thought the dream to be
A solo artist live on stage
For all the world to see

Astounding and theatrical
The others seem to cheer
Ovations are enveloping
As I waken to "Good morning, my dear"

Both the Future and Past

Do you want education,
or just to get high

To reach your potential,
or pie in the sky

If it’s learning you want,
then take off the mask

That laptop you worship
—deceives future and past

Poetically Speaking

Translucent rhythms of life 
Speak things of self, surroundings 
Or the vast universe
Perhaps as pie in the sky
As with opened hearts
And sacred words of trust
To young and old 
With velvety voice
I present my eternity
Bringing it home 
By way of poetry

Premium Member All my eye and pie- in- the- sky

What do I glimpse here?Is it something to fear?
It could be a UFO which would be a big blow
Out of the blue from a planet new
My abduction might lead to intelligent instruction
I rub my eyes and to my surprise
And it's just a black cloud amongst a white crowd

When the veracity is really sparse,
the world affairs are left on the backburner. 
Pitting a status dog against an orange poodle
(the latter dropped his noodle a long time ago)
there is no honour in winning the debate
in this farce we rate a mere pie-in-the-sky.

A Pie In the Sky

I saw a pie in the sky
                               This year when the air was dry
                                   I called my wife to dance
                                       Matter of elegance
                                  But she smiled a little-shy

        It’s PIE in the SKY !
        To EXPECT, RESPECT from male
        towards a woman :
        and HENCE to stop VIOLENCE.

What Makes Some People More Successful

What makes some people more Successful?
To this I reply,
I cannot tell a lie,
As in my bed I lie,
Drinking a bottle of Rye,
Determined to answer the question before I die,
While knowing that too, is a lie,
For it is obvious to even a fly,
That the answer is a pie in the sky.

So sublime my dream that I want to scream, for a guy who is a sweet offbeat character; he is kind, gentle and helps where he can, this sort of wonderful man appeals to me ! I wish that I could be his forever girl friend, with love to transcend that grows over time.

Pies in the sky

I could eat a pie in the sky
Said the Bear unto the snake
A giant cherry fancy pie
With lashings of cream shake 

A Pie the size of giant whales
A humungous macaroon
A slice of chocolate brownie
The size of the new moon 

The snake just warned the bear
To not gorge on such food
But the bear knew hibernation was near
And to be full would do him good

The Ascension

In war there’s no mercy
With aged nor infancy
Women and children first
On the Grim Reaper’s hearse

Politicians all smile
And Generals hostile
Young solider do and die
You’re told pie in the sky

How much blood needs to spill?
How many kids to kill?
Before we work for peace,
For pointless deaths to cease?

Let’s slay poverty
Let’s share property
Let’s spread hope everywhere
By making trading fair.
