Sly

All eyes upon her
Glad of the folds of her cape
Harsh light in water
Shy in the eyes of the men
Sly in the eyes of herself

Blindsided

Lived a sly lady of Mozambique
who seductivly offered a peek.
Men paid her a buck
but were out of luck.
What they saw was totally oblique.

You sly cat

In the mirror you sat

You’re a mimic feline

A copycat with fur so fine

Eyes gleaming with tales of a mischievous spat

After sipping liquor sixty proof

So she could just hide
She disappeared instantly in a poof

When she sings,
Soul and blues,
On angel’s wings.

Melody to choose.
Love her scat.
Notes all fuse.

Play that strat.
Yes it swings.
Where it’s at.

Premium Member A Sly Teaser

At a time inconvenient it teases,
As it comes whensoever it pleases.
Creeping ever so sly,
It will make you yell, "Why?!"
And the thing that I speak of is sneezes.

calmly swoops down from tree limb-

Dreaming

Staring from the tiny porch- found a moonless midnight; searched for fiery stars. Finding none he merged within a purple sky

Premium Member A Sly Stealthy Disease

      Paranoia, a sly stealthy disease
      Fells men as tall and as massive as trees
         Tiny fears in their minds
         Unravel, leave behind
      The rattle of what was once a fresh breeze

Premium Member Sly boots

Trash talk transformed into love bombs.
You’ve got a nickname, it’s Sly boots. 
Knowing what’s real instantly calms,
trash talk transformed into love bombs. 
I’m not flexible like those palms.
Bending to you, I lost my roots.
Trash talk transformed into love bombs.
You’ve got a nickname, it’s Sly boots.

The Magician's Sly Tricks

Funny Henry was
a magician children trusted;
he carried a large bag,
and the sly tricks he would do
to entertain them, seemed real.     


He asked every boy,
" What would you like to see, boys?"
They shouted, " Power Rangers! "
" And you young girls...what's your wish? "
They hollered,  " Wonder Woman!"

Premium Member Sly Fox of Chigger Hallow

In the foothills of the Ozarks Arkansas
 Those mountains a calling, come and play the game
   From prison came Joe to see his ailing pa
    Furloughed from prison won notorious fame

    Frances met him  in their secret rendezvous
  Sweet blonde Frances Standridge, eyes of baby blue
 Her lover the sly fox of Chigger hollow
Taught her teenage virtue a newfound shallow

Sly Are the Foxgloves and Excitable the Dogwood, Oh My

Foxgloves and dogwood, oh my! 

Playing in the garden, 

When no one else is looking

Having such a great time, 

Foxgloves they are so sly 

Dogwood so excitable, 

Dancing together 

And so colourful, 

Filling the garden 

With mischief and magically 

Bring to life all of natures beauty, 

The foxgloves and dogwood, oh my!

They are both amazing too me,

Both are as mischievous as can be.

Premium Member The Sly Spider

"Cheating and trapping others are malicious. One must never try to cheat, if he/she wishes not to be cheated"  ~ By Poet


At the GATE of a viscous net, The sly spider waited alert. A fly flitting closer on SHADOW wings, Was caught in the dewy JEWEL studded strings. When about to be wound round in ductile rings, The fly with a cursing MUTTER made a fling, And flew to freedom on filmy wings!

Premium Member Sly Dog


     She did it again,
     Surprises me to no end!
     Quietly walks over to the bag,
     Puts her nose in.
     Helps herself,
     To the treats within.
     Not that she didn't tell me before,
     I was too busy getting out the door.
     Packing all our stuff to camp out,
     How could I be such a lout?
     Leaving my pup to do without!
     Well, she showed me,
     Laying now under a tree,
     Chewing on a treat.
     No thanks to me!
