How to handle balls?
Kidding bidding close near
Sweet woman lovely dear
Slow fast flickering flame
Adult star tacky sesame......

Batter, well seasoned;
Thyme, basil, salt and a dash
Of oregano;
Sesame oil, fried,
On rice bed,
Wow!...

Burt and Ernie dwell on Sesame Street,
deep in a closet but living rent free.
When their skeletons escaped
they painted rainbows all day.
Uncle Sam slapped a big tax on their rings....

Sesame Seeds

Add Sesame seeds
To fulfil all cooking needs;
Then go on from there.
(Said my wife not me.)

Jim Horn

It is always a 
Challenge to make haiku out 
Of current conditions....

Except for BBC's Earth and their nature shows
TV sucks the big one, most other shows blow
Cept Sesame Street
Now that's a treat
But it feeds my brilliant mind and I feel all aglow...

Seasonal sea horse and sea lions named Sue 
Searching for a secluded seat in sea urchin’s seaweed.
Secreting secret signs, settling in a sailor’s simple shoe.
Securing secondhand seafarers, a signature of a sesame seed....

Open up
I say to thee
obey the voice
of destiny

partake you now 
of natures faire
come taste the fragrance
in the air

awaken
out of long remiss
lay aside thy chrysalis

open up
I beg of thee
open....
open sesame!...

Sign said “ONE WAY” but I was only going one way
Shades of Sesame Street, oh for those long ago days 
Hard to go both ways at once
Like wearing undies back to front
Dr. Suess was the kookiest man since mayonnaise...

Freshly roasted I,
Enjoy the flavor of my
Pumpkin seeds with salt
And olive oil bath;
A quite delicious snack that,
Is very healthy.
Sprinkled with pepper 
And some fresh sesame seeds;
Savory wonder!

My son has a cute little Cockatiel
That doesn’t say a word.
But when I look in its eyes,
I can only surmise
That it’d like to take on Big Bird.

I wondered what could be the reason
For facing this huge deed?
It’d say, “Why should only puppets,
And rather large Muppets
Get to eat all the Sesame Street seed?”...

Zulu drum
Egyptian people gather
Chant for freedom
Sesame seed music
Power to the soul
Amazing marketplace
Amazing fortress
Military gather power
Zulu drum
Mosques chant
Church goers pray
Lonely Wolf cries out
The Pyramids shake
Large question mark on the future
One thing can change they say
Egyptian boulders...

And I can't forget zorro 

Tune in again same time same place

OLANIKE

O—pen sesame!!!  I 
scream
L—oose this knot and
loose the sun
A—nd coil your
tongue like the
serpent on a pole
N—ights, you may
feast to yield
light;
I—llumining always;
thawing us, thawing
me
K—nitting  discords
to sweet harmony
E—arth will not last
a day without you
sun!!!!


For  Olanike,
obviously………………….and
those white melon
seeds
