Short Serve Up Poems

This Club Med lagoon really holds the heat,
with a beach front view and a coral suite.
But the best of all
as we watch it fall
is how they serve up each meal on a sheet!...

    Climate change starts at home
      Lower the temperature under your dome

    Never raise your voice, let alone scream
      Discard the hot sauce, serve up ice cream

She managed to Serve up a lovely Verse
 Turning beautiful words into gems
 From deep within these words did stem
 Poets proudly pen precious poems.

Any night
I serve up my fat
Drunken weary soul
In sweaty verbs
To the gods
Not real. 
I sit ever fatter
Licking prayers
And books of prayers 
Pretending 
I am a genius. 
I deal cards
In a game I've not learned
And coat candy 
In licorice kisses,
To dance, for naught,
And spark no more
And leap so short,
For eternity and a day....

Observe patiently the ways of one single fish.
then serve up savagery slayed for a dish.
Moving and seeking it,s own purpose in paradise!
Ending to a groveling alein race who sacrifice!
Awake!try abstaining from eating living souls.
Taste the earths wondrous miracles.
Bake!fry!boil!deep frozen bowls!
not a crust wasted on this earths cycles!...

She looks up to me I'm her role model
I birth her after nine months
Yet caught up on a world
Of deception
I shelter her
To keep her safe
Yet I feel like giving her wings to fly
She looks up to me as a role model
Will one day she sit in front of billions
Of people
Only the God I serve up above does know
Yet lessons are a respectable way of steering through life's twisted roads....

A banana split can be a work of art.
With the fruit cut lengthwise in half is where we start.
Three scoops of our favorite ice cream go on top.
Whatever flavor, use the cream of the crop.
On each scoop go toppings of pineapple, chocolate, and strawberry.
Above that go generous mounds of whipped cream and a cherry.
A split is good enough to change the most dour personality.
Serve up this treat, and see them become merry.

The number of fish species comprises a very long list. 
However, one does not need to be an ichthyologist. 
Just go to any seafood department at a supermarket. 
There are many tasty varieties of fish we can get. 
Fish is high in protein which can make us stronger. 
It's lower in fat which can help us live longer. 
Serve up some fish, and you will have a good meal. 
Search the stores where you can get a great deal.

Poets here have got a lot
Of soups that they can sup:
Elegy and etheree, epulaeryu served hot;
Tanka, haiku, dodoitsu -Asian broths served in a cup.
Rhyme here is a regular favor.
Free verse also we can savor.
