Love In a Pandemic

She stood in the moonlight smiling.
My perfect English rose.
Personal protective equipment
from her head down to her toes.

Strong wings spread out wide

Sharp claws breaking through the air

With protective eyes..

She stands strong 
Yet weeps with sadness

car fumes went upward
into the air
growing a new tree
A protective ring appeared
an environmental exhaust system revamped
by two twelve-year-old scientists

A colander from kitchen a makeshift crash helmet

A lifting force
a protective shield

Wolf

There was a young wolf from Japan.
Who got hit by a pan.
Who wanted to jump.
She got caught by a tree and fell down with a bump.
I think she needs to wear a protective hat.

Mama deer pranced diffidently
checking the meadow for man’s smell
Her spotted fawn trots along
unaware of danger
checking out the food
of pure and sweet

Premium Member What Am I

If you take off my skin, I won’t cry, 
but you will, what am I?
It's true, I just skinned one myself and now I'm crying everyone.
I should have worn protective eyewear before peeling this onion.

Aquamarine waves
lap pristine rugged shorelines
casting call for beat
bohemic coral ballets
hip sandy beach applause

A Jungle, Across This Street

Met at the jungle border
A rough neighbourhood
Who's death-defying claimed him
By a lion's roar.
Protective of its own grounds
Just across this street
That heard fearsomely alike
A cat does encore.

Premium Member Satisfied

the snail
carrying his yoke
is always at peace

otherwise
it would free itself
of the burden
and go to death

leaving the shell
a protective home
for some other
naked prey:

thus, is redemptive
suffering…

Protective

protective feelings 
remain trapped 
within 
can't get rid of 
overwhelming 
urge to run to your aid
even now 
even after
these years 
of estrangement 
I still find myself 
feeling 
overprotective 
over you
Form: Lyric

Premium Member Growl

Listen to poem:
getting
more and more
protective
particular 
and selective
with my time

truth is
i refuse
to have others decide
how to squander 
what I have left

life is too short
to waste

higher than the Statue of Liberty

showing their appreciation
for her protective service

Premium Member "give Slam a Ham"

I know little of poet, Sam Slam,
But give him a slice of poet I am.
Of the prime directive,
I am over protective,
So slam your gums down, here comes your ham.
