Premium Member Dog Feels Guilty Not Cat

Dog comes up hanging her head.
Guilt apparent.
Ready to sign a confession.
Cat stalks by.
He pauses to bat me in the face.
First strike.
Admitting nothing.

Shadow

Walk-in, out
a sign, a time
thine own
renewed
thy new strength
revised
compromised
analyzed
appreciated
the direction of a choice
new day, new way
new identity
shadow.

Treaty With Destiny

I wish I could sign a treaty,
With my destiny,
'To make you mine forever'
I would give away everything, I had ever!

Living with you was most important,
 As rest everything was insignificant !

Gop Plug

Trump ought to be tried for sedition
But who dares to sign a petition?
The GOP Vault
Claims Trump's not at fault
So forget all about contrition! 


( Guess whom has the Vault combination?)

Bossed

Bossed

From the powers that be
I was told once to thee
That in order to pee
I must sign a decree
That states I agree

To dock thy pay
Whilst I was away
But how can I stay
And hold nature at bay?
...What else can I say?

Holiday Thoughts

A star, an angel,
A shepherd ,a decree.

A sign,a messenger,
A hearer, Your Free!

A Father, a Son,
A Spirit, a family.

A babe, a stable,
A lamb, a tree.

A creator ,a creation,
A plan,  an eternity.

A hope ,a comfort,
A truth, 
He came for me.

Premium Member Darling Doris Dollar- -

…
Polyester jewels ravage her neck; Her clothes are stylist and yet; Money she has no remorse; She’s gotten all she got, from being divorced; Darling Doris Dollar; Got more monies than any others; It’s a shame the next man she gets; Gonna have to sign a Prenup…

Life Without You

life without t you is slow
life without you is blue 
life i cant being without you

life with out you is nothing
how did we get in this position
baby why cant we sign a love potion

we come to far to were we are now
life without you i cant even think
life without you stinks

life without you is
life without you is terrible
life without you is so painful

Premium Member Juniper Rose 1 Juniper Rose 2 Juniper Rose 3

Upon birth, Juniper loved her name; no one else had it.
But then others heard it.
Now there are sixteen Junipers in the same class - her class.
The teacher wants to number them.
Juniper one, Juniper two, Juniper three.
The parents sign a petition they do not want their children numbered.
They should have thought of that before they stole Juniper’s middle name too.

Premium Member Burning Hands

Written: August 16, 2026, for a contest sponsored by Line Gauthier ************** Afraid of Love’s flame, yet drawn to its name, I almost said “I love you”, my demur to blame. Curling my tongue—worrying you'd leave, Love agony is louder than hope, if you believe. In silent rooms, holding hands, we glance, Both aching for a sign, a spark, a chance.

Scrunggie

He invited a device 
That pumped
Water from the well
It than sent the water to
A holding tank
Their the water was compressed
When the spicket was open
And the tank would send
A flow of air when
The temperature was
Near or below freezing.
The idea is to have all the pipes
Fully empty of water.
The device would send
Warm air thru the pipes
When the sensor sent
 a sign a warning
Of freezing conditions

Invitation

Come to my paradise
Come to a place of gladness
Let our heart melt as one
In the groovy island of love
There, we'll join our hands
And walk the landscape

How glad to know you 
As my angel in fitting amour
In your loving arms I'll sleep
To wake with joyful song

Come to my paradise
Come to a place of gladness
Lt's walk the hills
Let's swim the deep blue sea
There, we'll sign a pact
And float in our yacht.

Hope Against All Odds

Whether it's dawn or dusk,can't decipher
What's my destiny,can't decipher

I have wandered into this place
Where even living is forbidden

Not even a streak of light left
Not a single beat of loving heart

All hopes shattered to pieces
All dreams have left their abode

Stench of  stale air around
Grasping for each breath


Still wishing this strangled breath could get some relief
A sign,a hope ,it would be to live again.....
Form: Verse

Incinerated

I don’t find words. 
Words will find me crying, 
when a drone hits the coral reef.

Between guilty and 
innocent, the sleep will 
level the night and 
let go the dreams in sea.

The school of fish dies 
in my story. The ship sails 
for a new port. I cleave 
a pattern of withdrawl.

Roses will come again, to 
sign a pact with the unshaven 
god, sitting on the pavement, 
waiting to be beheaded.

A Comet

Fly in the sky, you, giant hornet,  
towards the sun, against the wind.
Shine in the light, eccentric comet,
into the dark you`d better fling.

Arrange the show and die in harness,
let here star shower`s hour run.
You – surveyor`s stake in total darkness,
Cosmos is not for sign a bar.

Exhaust yourself in fleeting dancing,
let after all the summer fun,
and rush away, you, cosmic lancer,
to catch up with a falling sun.

Go deeper still and listen well,
Stillness funds will as silence spells.


Go beyond mind beyond all noise,
Watch silence sign a conscious poise.


Go beyond form to a deep source,
Silence shapes norm in cause and course.


Go beyond thoughts or words or deeds,
Purge plot and lot beyond all need.


Go deep within to know the truth,
Stillness unseen contains all proof.

Notes

Notes

I write notes
but do not apply for insurance quotes
I sit under the tree in the rain writing a note
while laying beside me is my rain coat

I write notes to memorize
but not to visualize
my notes can be abstract
but not take from an extract
while my manager makes me sign a contract

My notes is my poem
my poem is my hearts home
My notes can be informative
but cannot be affirmative
my Facebook are my notes that I post
traveling in a plane going to the coast
Form: Rhyme

i roll the questions on my lips

i roll the questions on my lips
uncertainty pierces my tongue
but through it all an autumn kiss
infects the wound it stung

to long for you is simple
to ask is far too wrong
for your eyes, a sign, a symbol
of where i can't belong

the shadows will lay heavy
when i lose my sun, my light
but two flowers can't grow steady
and you look so good in white

take my words as hardships
lose them to the sea
though you toss them off steep cliffs
my love, you shall forever be!

Premium Member Lessons

Live with true zest
Explore deep quest
Sense cheer's bold fest


See happy takes
Ones that you make
Now seed your stake


Sign a bold lease
Touch what you please
One you dare ease


Live this day well
Expound fond spell
Align sure tell


Reach for a thrill
Niche joy that fills
Here lies goodwill


Empty your mind
Rise with new finds
Etch dream in kind


Nice floods new spice
Opt to be wise
Work to purge vice
