shrieks of seagulls
die on the inshore breeze-

With shrieks and groans and sexy moans

Shrieks of seagulls die on the breeze
Childhood ebbs away on sunlit seas

The streams where poohsticks once were raced
now flow into memory's embrace

Magpies

Through busy April clouds
The shrieks of magpies sound
A rainbow black and white

They hide their finds in highest trees
Making their  finest bridal nest

and not like the passengers in his car who all died screaming horrific shrieks.

your dripping tears on the pans.”

Premium Member A Cold Winter

The winter has honed its attack.
“I'm freezing!” my butt shrieks alack,
as up climb the freezes
from toes passed the knees-es.
It's so cold my foreskin grew back!

I went out for a walk along the beach
Didn't know that I was exposing my cheeks
Bikini bot dropped off
When I had a few coughs
Couldn't feel a thing, but I heard the loud shrieks.

With the sexiest body a man could wish
A real treat to cuddle

But shrieks to High Heaven when two bodies squish!

So frightened the lads and their lasses

Premium Member To What End, a Mule

One end of a mule is certain to reek
  Its alternative end whinnies and shrieks
    A mule may let go
    So you'd better know
  Which end will just speak ~ and which spreads its cheeks

The Locked Room

From inside a locked room with walls strong and stout
Come shrieks and the sounds of scratching about.
The people downstairs 
Don't know what's in there
But make sure that it never gets out.

Nearing dog-whistle domain

Premium Member Oo Do Not Read This Poem

I may be an *******
and what makes this contest so hard for me

is I don't know if it stinks worse than it shrieks sirens
or shrieks more than it stinks compost.

Dilemma unresolved.
Thanks for listening.

Screams For More

Polka-dot percussion points,
through a dusk cloud-less, and roof-less,
where the good ol' pale astral plane chills.
There's an entrance, build.
The social agglomerate
shrieks for more, in a festive way.
