when a flower designer
nothing ever is finer
eye has a shiner...

Long lean limber. sultry, slender,
Pretty pout, neat nails, great grin.
Fatal flaw?
Incredibly clumsy, elbow bumpy,
Tripped twice, shiner. Shucks, chagrin....

I remember as a kid this one little guy
tough as nails and quick with a lie
he showed up with a shiner
but he wasn't a whiner
said he, I hit his fist with my eye...

pseudo-expression's
      of ragged diamonds
  a fugazi sans brilliance,
  shiner midst vague skies 
           in the optical jags of
       practical indifference...

Sure annoying while reclining in my recliner
Bell rings, someone wants to sell me a trip on an ocean liner
Had just fallen asleep
Dreamt of sailing the ocean deep
When he refused to leave I gave him a big shiner...

Born of fire,
Lost in smoke.
Favourite plaything,
First one broke.
Highest flyer,
Longest fall.
Strongest structure,
Hardest wall.
Live to gamble,
Die in debt.
First to want it,
Last to get.
Brighter shiner,
More you burn.
Harder thinker,
Less you learn....

What is a butterfly?
A tiny creature with pretty wings
Colorful and filled with joy
A symbol of freedom and liberation
Beauty, grace and rebirth
But there should be something more
There should be much more
All I see is a tiny spark
When it should be much shiner
No, she is not only that...

They are the dream builders
the life shiner
the destiny polisher
they are the beautiful hands
that adorn our world with courage
they are the angels with pen
physical angels with blessed initiative
give your child a teacher
and you will give him a medal
the inculcator of morals
the moulder destiny
obey them and they would help make your world glitter...

When it comes to selling you beer, I will sell you none.
You have no identification and you look under twenty-one.
You come here and try to buy beer every day.
I won't sell you any so you might as well go away.
I'm going to pop you in the eye and give you a shiner.
You'd better learn that I don't sell beer to minors.

(Even though this is a fictional poem, it's important to keep alcohol beverages out of the hand of minors.)...

The crescent moon hangs bright
in the sky
which I admire

Getting in my car, sore
it's really cold 
nursing one eye, a tooth, a leg, an elbow

Lifting bad leg, inside
to follow in step, nearby
the other, little past eight, tonight 

Its not too late
slow in pace, no haste
holding back irritation

Letting it go
never show
or give another thought

Enjoy crescent moon's shine
a  shiner tonight, hanging high 
in the dark evening skies¥...

Hey barber, give me a shoe and a shine
As he's lathered he feels just fine
Then he views the shoe shiner
Wow, what breasts, nothing finer
My hands on them I wish they were mine

Young lady, let's spend time in a motel room
Get to know each other, vroom vroom
I'm married, och, you'll be fine
I'll pay, say your working overtime
You tell him, the barbers my groom

Challenged to write this based on a joke!...

I have a Christian Friend, Regina
She had never uttered  '':
Not for all the tea in Big China,
As though it could give her Angina;
For life ban her from Holy Sinai...

Fears picked from Born - Again Wood Shiner
And Bible Student Friend Georgina,
Both of them passionate Catholics,
To alter their minds lots of New Tricks:
Among them planting cunning Martin,
His fine point fluent Catholic Latin:
At the last moment to Regina:
Mary won't kill for voiced ....
