Fifty Shades

A racy new book I have found
Once started I couldn’t put down
There were 50 they say
In all shades of grey
The sexiest man pound for pound

Premium Member Giving the Hounds the Slip

  
     plopping down ‘midst marshmallow grounds
        the bunnies advanced by leaps and bounds

     ahead of the hounds who the marshmallows found
        ~ tastier than bunnies pound-for-pound

Pound For Pound

from bank to skill
  and labor to love
 for sake of pleasure
and from rooftop to tile
   my list compiles a pile
  as high and long as a miracle mile
 from brain to agility
from slum to nobility
 I am willing to bet that
   pound for pound
     I am better by the pound


Jane

Out in the park, lashed by rain
a girl, heart torn, cried under a hat
there in the ground, buried her Jane
an old brown manx, as flat as a mat

Pound for pound, not pretty but plump
Marcus, the neighbor, two pies, not enough
fast to the market, tripped over a stump
Jane at his feet took her last puff

Christmas Nears

Christmas nears.
I do hear.
Holding ground
with one ear.

Sights I see
With out eyes.
Wonders only.
Wishes by.

Scents a’ lurking
all around.
Ghostly manners
pound for pound.

Taste of nothing.
Winter's bliss.
Flavor pulled
before a kiss.

Christmas nears
Of this we know,
without us saying.
The wind will blow.

A Tale of Two Frogs- Not Meaning the French But Real Frogs

he didn't
seem to be
upset
that i hadn't
set up
the waterfall
yet

so he started
near sunset
trying
to get
a date
until late in
the evening

trilling
about how
thrilling was
his pond
pound for pound
but his call
was answered by

please
leave a
message
after
the
beep
beeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeee...p

Premium Member Heart-Shaped Clouds

Clouds playing around
In the sky tramping above the ground
Dangling in merry-go-round
Smiling at you year-round

One cloud zoomed outbound
Glittering ice flakes fall in mound
Flowers and trees have all found
Heart-shaped clouds in pieces on the mound

Crystals in diamonds plodded on the ground
Stayed and freezed like a heart spellbound
Prayers in hearts everywhere that astound
Heart-shaped clouds in you, dwell pound for pound

Ode To My Pen

Pound for pound me and my pen,
are the best pair to be found.
You can stand them up all day,
and we will knock them down.
I cannot take the credit,
cause I know for sure its him.
With his sleek chromatic style,
full of ink and slim.
He moves my hand to cross the t's,
and lies while doting i's.
And the words he puts on paper slim,
brings tears to both my eyes.
Without him I am nothing,
a man that's such a bore,
But that sleek chromatic ball point pen,
makes me so much more...
