When we 
Are young
And tall
We think that
That we know

Wearing our

Our sleeves
Falling through life
Like autumn leaves

Every bird that I know tunes up and sings.
But somewhere up there, a butterfly grieves.
Gossamer wings don't fit into sleeves.

In life’s bumpy non-existent road map.

Roll up your sleeves and fight for your dream!

Green Sleeves

Jack Daniels could grow very mellow;
They called him a jolly, good fellow.
But, strange as it seems,
The good fellow turned green,
When he fell in a tub of lime Jell-o.

And the stars offer guidance to the lost.
Wear your heart on your lips, not your sleeves,
And walk with me, fingers uncrossed.

Manana

shake things up,
get mad at something - anything,
but it's Sunday
so I think I will put off
being pissed off
until Monday.

after
the haze of dawn,
vapor trails
the afternoon sky
sleeves of cloud
pillow my eye:
long shadows
detail the dusk
evening so suddenly
becomes night

Morning Shift!
I hear my heart beats
thump!thump!thump!
like running under the sun's heats.
I feel my sweat carress my cheeks
down, down, through my sleeves

Haigh! Ye from Emerald Isles
Sky and seas hide in your eyes

Wear green pride on your sleeves

Wear a fresh shamrock, Pray

Premium Member Showstopper Imayo

Manly dusted with cologne, bowing with a rose;
Rolling up those silken sleeves, he is so vintage;
His smile becomes a backflip, a ‘Wow’ in shocked eyes;
Showstopper noticing me, rouge so roughly raised.

Premium Member Thats a Cut

Little tan fox hood was leaping in the leaves
We watched him turn suddenly and examine his sleeves
He brought out some twigs and branches, and a walnut.
The director of the play yelled out “That’s a cut!”

Deep red holly berries against dark shiny green leaves
Amazingly familiar Christmas music pulled out of sleeves
Familiar voices in harmony, singing carols with glee
Holiday magic is in full swing if you ask me

Mystery

The most beautiful mystery
Like deep brown eyes
or treacherous lies

Like hidden secrets
or hidden regret 
you try to forget

Like long sleeves
Autumn leaves
or who to be

Like fake smiles
hurt hearts
