First Place
Clearing her old shelves
Mom's bread pan--
Before it rusted.

My favorite job is to stock shelves
Now here is what is a shocker
in High School I was voted most
Likely to become a stocker!
The shelves are packed
Not an empty gap in sight
The books are dusty
Men and women lie in the books
But the books are dusty
empty shelves again
pet food has been hard to find
pet’s don’t understand

SAY HELLO TO MY LITTLE FRIEND!
While I decorate my shelves
Please don't make fun of his height
He's just one of Santa's Elves
Travel is the perfect teacher
for those with wealth to go
Aging shelves hold well-worn books
aboard whose ships I stowed
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
a herd of silent minds
grazing shelves—each spine a fence
holds worlds enclosed
Two dolls is all you need now, not 30
Our president has cleared the shelves
You may pay two bucks more, but who cares?
Teenage boys have a Christmas wish
For a nymphomaniac dish
Though Santa's elves
Have searched their shelves
The best they can do is, "Go Fish"
There are little boxes
Of happiness up high
On shelves where
No one can reach.
They are all yellow
And grey
And so light they might just
Float away
Said dear old Santa to his elves,
You will have to go by yourselves.
I am old and tired.
Time that I retired
Just get toys from the Walmart shelves.
Seeing aisles of messy shelves
Before a shopper even delves
Is a horrible curse
Which Whole Foods can reverse
With stockers who were Santa's elves
Bargain basement deals and freebies
Junk galore to fill any spare shelves
~ Soon clutter will win over

LOT UP TO DOUG FORD
SAYS A DEAL WE CAN AFFORD
OR CUT DOWN WITH SWORD
A TRADE DEAL MAYBE
US BOOZE BACK ON SHELVES I SEE
JUST LEAVE THAT STUFF BE
dust-softened hardbacks
line shelves like old companions
ink scent warms the air
pages murmur their secrets
from shelves that never hurry
Stored upon old dusty shelves
In the bosom of our home
Waits the bounty of last season
Summers yield from fertile earth
During barren months sustain
Freed a dozen hens today
For a week or so
$2 (additional) the price of freedom
On the supermarket shelves
Even though I may pontentially
Have stolen all their children
Beauty is not an equation of intelligence neither a way to earn respect, it is just a way to fool people! What you see on the shelves is not what you always get on delivery!
when shelves are bare,
Old Mother Hubbard…
when bread, butter and eggs
only find themselves
on a politician’s spread,
will we still believe
what the Jedi says?

Of books about Home Run King, Henry Aaron
Duval, Florida school shelves are now barren
What kind of specs are those folks wearin'
~ Methinks they're definitely errin'
cold front moving through
heavy snowstorm approaching
darkening shadows
grocery with empty shelves
setting up zig-saw puzzle
written January 14, 2022
I moved the shelves to clean behind,
Tidying my thoughts –
A sliver of lizard slithered out.
As I stepped aside
The lizard slipped in the gap again,
Its copper body
Vanishing.
Failing in life, is the purpose of the lesson.
Think of it as a well taught true blessing.
Without being tested we wouldn't know ourselves.
Like books without words sitting on the shelves
Rude people who think only of themselves -
I would like to sit atop mantle shelves
Yes, I know that is wrong
but it's where they belong
when they act like those impish little elves
