End monotony.

Someone spotted sixty-seven silvery slimy slippery sluggish snails somehow silently swimming slightly side-ways successfully- Shenanigans

Premium Member Mischief in the works

Devious eyes and devilish smile.
Youth testing how far they can go.
Planning new tricks and shenanigans.

Sunbeams, sassafras, seagulls, and sassiness
lightbulbs, lightning bolts, lethargy, and laziness,
life yields wonder and wounds and sometimes
fascinating vocabulary can transform pain into pondering

Shenanigans

There was a lad known for his shenanigans,
Who completed each act with such naughty grins.
He leaned backward all alone,
To kiss the old Blarney Stone!
That limestone-lipped lad known for shenanigans.

There was an old lawyer named Ruth
Who didn't mind bending the truth.
No scoundrel too bad,
If money he had.
He'd have pled self defense for Wilkes Booth.

For Carolyn's

Premium Member Life With Trump Iv

Donald was born with life cushy
It’s known that he can be pushy
Expect this bully
To grab for things wooly
Like a fine pussy that’s bushy  


Author's note: Get ready for the under the table shenanigans at state dinners.

A Shot of Vanity

Social media shenanigans
do learn nay to take seriously
seldom do they add any value
Distortion of reality a tool
readily applied in an arena 
where aesthetics rule
over brains and decorum

Premium Member buttering up the sun

It was a gorgeous day for shenanigans, so the butterfly flew up high
She wanted to butter up the sun, and she knew how to really fly.
Giving the sun compliments, was one of her favorite things to do.
It kept the sun on her lilies and roses and made her feel good too.

Summer Solstice

Sun has set now.
Under full moon
Many excited fairies
Marching together
Encircle fairy tree.
Revelry begins.

Solstice night.
Offering thanks.
Leprechauns join in.
Song and dance.
The fiddlers prance
In and out among
Caotic scenes of
Energetic shenanigans.

Charming feline with airs of graceful nobility
Agile this slender olympian contender
Tomfoolery being its main specialty

Daystar

Downfall of Lucifer from heaven having sinned
Against God or is it the planet Venus at dawn,
Yesteryear’s mythology or today’s scientific fact?
Story of man is made up of myths and folklores
Tainted with superstitious shenanigans and mumbo jumbo
Attributing natural phenomenal events to acts of gods
Racing against the coming onslaught of Kaliyuga.

Premium Member Pimply Monkeys

Maybe I'll start smoking weed again.
I was much happier back in those Mexican golden days.
Tickling nickel bags- giggling away the night.
Playing 500 rummy with my best buddy Mike.
Crushing the munchies with bowls of mac-n-cheese
Chocolate and cherry Coca-Cola
2 pimply monkeys in a barrel of shenanigans and hijinks.
Praying our pimples faded away by Monday.

Premium Member End of Alphabet Shenanigans

here becomes there if one adds a T
and where when one adds a W
and zher, which is ‘here’ in Mandarin  
if one removes an E and adds a Z
which rhymes with V
though some pronounce it Zed
which rhymes with Ted
which brings us back to T 
almost nothing rhymes with W
but I really want to do U 
and make S rhyme with X
and you know Y.

Premium Member Knotty Totty Rottsy Day

Crone arrived masked as crescent moon.
We knew her by her star cape and her attitude.
I was wearing a warring pirate ship as a skirt.
The day was ripe for all kinds of shenanigans.

A trumpeter arrived to announce the next eclipse.
It’s one of those knottsy-tottsy-rottsy days.
I put on my star gazing hat, and tried to look average.
Difficult for someone as creative as me.

Premium Member Meeting the Shenani Goats

You have heard of shenanigans, right?
we were introduced to shenani-goats tonight
they romped and jumped and butted our behinds.
ruthlessly rambunctious, rough, not in any way kind.

Do we have to come back? Asked my child, Hue.
His bottom and legs were now black and blue.
They aren’t trying to be bad, my sister said.
An opportunity for a shenani-goat to butt her in the head.

Collapse

The collapse 

They built an edifice
On a shining hill and
A sandcastle
Here the truth was
Spoken hubristic 
One can say
However, they believed in 
In the illusion
A man came and stepped
On the castle, it crumbled
Lies and shenanigans
Toppled out for all to see
It was just sand. 
The hatred turned to 
The truth-teller
He was called a traitor
Rots in a tiny prison cell.

Customary or misquoted, What hand shall be dealt in this game of shenanigans people playing games are often questionable of one’s ulterior motives. Is it because of one’s anger, disappointments ascending, descending contemplating should the unknown accept the facts and move on or continuously deceive inner-self and remain on and off tasks contemplating who is playing the games if shenanigans.

Premium Member Marietta Georgia

Marietta Georgia the beginning 
and the end of poetry soup as we 
knew it today we are swamped by ads
investors buying web domains inventing 
shenanigans amidst their very own 
motives creating fake accounts all 
under the same foundations gathering poets
to allow poems to be featured in anthologies 
now is the time for all great poets to come 
to the aid of their country to write or 
not to write that is the question

Premium Member Shoeless Shermans Shortsighted Tale

Shameless shady shepherd Sherlock shushed shoeless Sherman
so surely shabby sharp-eyes Sheila shellacked sheep-headed Sherlock
Shaken shallow Sharon shadowed shapely shipwrecked Sheila
Shadow-man shilly-shallied, shifting shopworn Sharon’s sheep
Showy Sharon sharpened a shortened sheath, shaving Sherlock
Sherlock shuttled shell shocked Sherman, showing his Shenanigans
Shoddy Sheila shocked Shelly, shaking sheep into Shangri-La.
