Ever notice how cauliflower
Resembles an image of brainpower
Some big some small
Some not there at all
But my huge cerebrum couldn't be prouder
My words fall down and skitter around
like leaves from an autumn tree,
dry and crinkly.
Sapless.
Lifeless.
Vestiges of prouder times
when language used to speak my mind.
Prouder,
Louder,
Pushing & shoving,
Totally unloving,
Colder & farther,
Farther & farther
Away from you!
"Oh, God, is it true?
Is this really me?
Really, can it be,
My heart
Torn apart?
Heal me please!
Forgive me God, only Jesus frees!"
A girl silent as a flower
Never could be prouder
Never lost, always loved
Always mistaken, taken for granted
Careless and carefree
At most, clever and yet so anxious
Truthful but never enough
Here and there, never stopping
Yet she stays an unemployed babysitter
There once was a clam
In a shell on a beach
By a rock under sand
At low tide out of reach
Till a boy with a hat
And a pail and a rake
Moved the rock and the sand
And the clam he did take
Said the mom of the clam
“I could not be prouder,
Good luck little clam
You’ll make a fine chowder!"
I chose her alone and not another
To be my children's MOTHER
She is my friend, wife, and also lover
And she he is my children's MOTHER
I am blessed and could not be prouder
Than the husband of my children's MOTHER
A search the world over would not reveal a better
Mother than my children's MOTHER
THE LAUGH HEARD 'ROUND THE WORLD
Myrtle laughed out loud, the whole world heard her
They tried to shut her down with nasty slur
Yet she laughed louder
Chest ever prouder
She could have cared less for mortal slander

Laughter’s the best medicine. Drink a cupful! Cheers!
richer than wealth prouder than the jewel cost
- true perfection

2nd place in the contest
Helicopters dot the sky
Like dragonflies, but louder.
I wonder if the insect world
Sees them and feels much prouder.
For how their rumbles fill the air,
Attracting much attention,
Although their engineers would claim
That wasn’t their intention.
Still, I prefer the gentle buzz
Of wings to their propellers.
(Except for stinging insects –
I’ve no fondness for those fellers!)
A love like this I’ve never known,
And now I know so well,
I’m proud in love, and prouder yet
Of all, one day, we’ll tell.
And ours is love that’s carved in stone
With patient, steady hand,
Where others, who known with regret,
Could only write in sand.
And ours is love that, called our own,
Is shadow-bound for now,
But darkness makes it wise, forget
The where, the why, the how.
I know competition is only war
It is all we are trained to do
There in parade an army of czar
Republican troops forward too
And bright still shines the regiments
Of kings, or a modern queen
Islands too with prouder contingents
Marched upon the Olympic scene
I cheer because there is no blood shed
No trumpet crying over the drum
Grumbling for the burial of the dead.
It is bloodless better, this deterred wisdom
It's a rocky-road journey
Hold on tight
You're not alone
We're with you
As promised, day will get better
Allow yourself the pain and grievance
There's no turning back
Look forward
You've progressed enough
I can't wait for the laugh
When it's over
You won the victory
We couldn't be any prouder
Presently, don't punish yourself
There will come better days
Hold on tight
Keep the faith, darling
"Thank You"
Brought tears to my eyes to hear your first cry,
You did.
Brought home love, caring, and delight for life,
You did.
Chased hard feeling away with birthday cake,
You did.
Brought me pride to see your graduation,
It did.
Brought home huge smiles in form of a grandchild,
You did.
Became new light in the life of new life,
You did.
No father is prouder of what you did,
Thank you for being my kid.
Missy Bee Dee had a tail that would not quit
It was fluffy and full, and it was amazing more than a bit.
She strutted around the yard, showing it off.
Loving it more that it made some people cough.
She was prouder than a peacock about this fine tail.
She loved showing it off to every Tom, Dick and Gale.
But one day two squirrels showed up with tails fuller and more rad.
Irritating her so, she left the yard huffy, jealous and mad.
As a little girI watched you
Run, skip, jump and prance,
As a young lady , I stood by
As you struggled,, learning to dance.
Teenage years passed, too soon they were gone
As a young woman you wore radiant glow,
I was so pleased with you my darling
I beamed with pride for I loved you so.
Today you have taken wings
and exceeded my expectations by far,
I couldn't be happier or prouder
Of who you became, I love who you are
I love you Mom
ANIMAL LIMERICK
There was a young man named Chuck
Who had a little white duck
The duck disappeared
And everyone feared
That somebody stole Chuck's duck
One day the little white duck
Suddenly showed up at Chuck's
With a lady duck
Who had baby ducks
Chuck has a house full of ducks
The duck that belonged to Chuck
Had a great streak of good luck
He now has a mate
His life is real great
I know of no prouder duck
