Premium Member autumn guy

this is the tale of ed jeeves

notorious friend of thieves

each fall he will rise

to much darkened skies

and pilfer neighbors red leaves.

Premium Member Cry N' M' Knee

Pilfer, borrow, pocket or grab
  So many ways for thieves to nab

A wallet, a purse, or a tattered billfold ~
  Pity, this cashless age they only catch cold

Socrates Stole My Socks!

Now I know how he got his name....
He can put an electric dryer to shame!
Dryers eats socks,
Socrates does pilfer....
I wonder what happens,
If I send him a bill 'fer
All my missing socks....
Would he sock me one?

Grackles

Wings monger air.
A host of defrocked preachers
buckle and swag.
Mobs clique and crowd in clusters.
Grackles, 
skip, jump, and plunder on.

The birds pilfer, promenade,
scrum, pluck,
lift off swearing 
in an avian Yiddish.

Heaven is rocked
by their thimble-sized storms.

Premium Member Mandates

Mandates Haiku: by Tom 10/29/2021 Mandates are edicts meant to pilfer our freedoms; cleverly thought out. What is the essence of America? Finding and maintaining that perfect, delicate balance between freedom “to” and freedom “from.” Marilyn Vos Savant

Flickering beacon of light.
Red core inflamed.
Elites on the dole.

Viral blight dissembles.

While chaos reigns.

A Murder of Crows

Late commers snap beaky throats,
mug with angry complaints.

A gathering
of de-frocked preachers strut
and preen, a tussled foraging, 
hustle, and riot.

Up in the branches brothers caw and jeer.
Upheavals come together,
those with more pluck, snatch and pilfer.

Wanton blackouts of carrion crows
crowd my eyes 
with their petty, ill-mannered crimes.

Premium Member Thievery

Thievery Written: by Miracle Man 5-10-2019 Consequences exist for each action they take, And some will pilfer things hidden from sight. Their misguided actions became a huge mistake, Once truth is known that their hands are slight. Luke 8:17 K. J. V. For nothing is secret, that shall not be made manifest; neither any thing hid, that shall not be known and come abroad.

Zenith of Our Love In the Clouds

One day clouds will play on the earth
We pilfer a son of the sky and fled away
We can touch life and death
Design, protect their way
No death! Our cradle of love will sway

When death comes never to be shy!
Hold me tight
On the back of a winged horse
we will roam around
Your love and the devil 
I can fight the devil if you hold my hand
Even if we court defeat
On the earth 
It will always be a cursed night

Milla Charlette

Nana’s a safe harbour for a child,
a rattling baby taking water
at the christening font, and fluid
in the lungs. Little’s of consequence

for you, ceremony or theology, or
clan gathering. We pilfer your
routine deftly as rogue genes have
jellied your muscle. But held above

the waterline you’re safe now, if
perplexed to tears, the agony of taking
passage from death to life not quite
surpassing navigation of more hostile currents.
Form: Elegy

Condescend

A stranger, somewhere, there exists, 
Someone I can never be; 
A thief who'd pilfer what I
Treasure most so easily.
For little difference I have made
To both what's me and mine, 
I was a witness many a-times
To easily-said goodbyes.

But God has taught, if Love be pure
'Tis not about one's self, 
Instead what for the beloved one
Will truly be best.
Hence, even at my own expense, 
I'd rather she be happy
Even if her happiness' cause
Will not be me.

Premium Member Your Light Shines Bright

To the teams of rescuers on the front line in Haiti
The Pilots, the Soldiers, and Truck Drivers
The Doctors, Nurses, and the Aides
The Clergymen, Volunteers
To the average Haitian giving of themselves
To meet the needs of their fellowmen

Your light shines bright in this dark hour
As a beacon to all the world 
Rewards more precious than priceless gems
To you and yours are assured
In a place where time can neither erase nor robbers pilfer
God blessings to you all

Total Devestation

Total Devastation

Of smoke saw big plumb;
Certainly did ceil our doom;
Then swept tomb with brume.

Will equivocate;
Hesitate and celebrate;
Did elaborate.

Prefer to pilfer,
While each flower will wilter
Had to kill him and her..

We deserved lower
Rate and we can hardly wait
For it to be done.

Merrick Garland's ghost
From coast to coast perfect host
Who was loved the most.

Get a grip on self
Of information was a wealth
You will be faced with.
