to heaven bound
has step-wise tiers
strewn with slippery slides
snaking down to land head first ~
rung hamstrung

Pronounce me lightened,
ethereal wind in wings~
Blow my feathers thus
with slippery zippers closed
to lift me above the sky

Then splashed in the water to
find his way home.

Slippery Slappery
Rikki Tikki Tavi
Chased the snake
Down into the hole

Digging deeper
Much like a 
Spelunker
He happened upon a mole.

As soon as the postman got started
His slippery mouth
Was heading down south
When she crossed her ankles and farted

Slippery squat salamander squinding,
Sucking, slurping under my sailboat. 
Deviously deciding a dindling,
Grotesque gargoyle giants squind your throat!

Through the long winters up in Maine
Her virtue she aims to maintain
Though she tries best to cope
On a slippery slope
She slips and falls now and again

Sail On Soothing Seas

She ran as swiftly as she could
down the slippery slope
through the sifting sand
to the sparkling ship
to sail on soothing seas.

Justice

Dodge,
              slippery,
              carries on
               justice always
               sneaking around
               in practicing justice...

There once was a Spaniard called Julio
Who was just as slippery as oleo
And so was his brief
Claims his client's no thief
When he gets of he always cheers koolio

Satin sheets cool in summer.
Soft as a caress against bare skin.
Dangerously slippery so use caution.

Mud
first sign
of spring thaw
slippery worms
dance with the robins
nestlings calling
the cadence
