She pooh-poohed his smallish gift.
He looked glum and she looked miffed.
No diamond in sight,
She did not delight.
Her love for him was set adrift.

Limerick
I’m salt,
ionic,
on tables laid iconic,
abrasive, bitter,
savoury and,
consecratory:
Tridentined mandatory:
a quarter
of the blessings
from the sky.
And without me
in smallish lots,
you die.

I do not know?
caged and boxed
smacked into a smallish space
Confined
I am a lion
roaring loudly and clearly
In mindfulness
Praising family
for their non-interest
caged and boxed
Living full me-ness

I hear behind me
the fleeting sounds
of a large green alligator
slithering through the weeds
it snaps at my butt
and takes a smallish chunk of me
setting me free
to ponder
behind a tree
how lucky
one can be
to be set free.

Yesterday
the wind blew open
a crack in the air
A smallish space
so t'wd seem
squeezed just between
the here and there.
‘Tis said
a good deed
an' a heartfelt prayer
can let one briefly stare
into that space
where eyes may see
yet
not quite be.

The horses are a galloping today
Their hooves clacking against the cobblestones.
They clomp right by in a most lovely way.
Woman in carriage giving tiny moans.
Cancer prevails in her smallish bones.
Eighteen sixty-two. Disease has no name.
Big C makes it impossible to hide.
This poor woman will never be the same.

Injured by an ice cube
'Tis hard to comprehend,
removal from it's tray
a spike of ice extends.
This dagger like stalagmite
did pierce my very skin,
a chilling site, believe me,
and much to my chagrin!
Some blood did run, yet briefly,
a smallish wound you see,
same ice that did the spearing
I used for healing me!

Rhyme
Gibberash spontainly rushed
From other poet’s pens regushed,
Cannot contain the jovial
That Joycean phrases frame so well.
Ditberner is the Guzzi dare,
Dare I to say I doubly care?
Constracted I to JJ.’s soul,
I half a line to make it whole.
I fear my brain will adlelate
My mind doth too soon arbitrate.
Read this I beg in smallish doses
Ere Poetry Soup gives in and closes.

Light Verse
whatcha thinkin ’bout
nothing really.
it is true.
at an age when
the mind is on
permanent vacation,
I float on a bed of soft
feeling, selected memories.
occasionally a thought
creeps in disguised as a
smallish notion then bursts
into a real head-banger of
an idea stamped, to the one
who used to live here.
Like throwing a bone
to a toothless dog to be
slobbered over then
discarded for a nap in the sun.

Attitude
Tom Wright

Discouraging words are uttered every day,
And the most hurtful I hear is “I don’t care.”
Dudes get uptight when not getting their way,
That is more lamebrain than a barrel of hair.
Not caring about things is a bad place to live,
And from our vocabularies we should abolish.
Thinking only of one’s self with nothing to give,
Exposes us as being thoughtless and smallish;

Lyric
In waste places beside the road
Coltsfoot grows in fertile till.
A smallish flower no higher than a toad
Its habitat seems to fit the bill.
Not expecting a flower in this land
Odd brown scales clasp its stalk.
Skunk cabbage neighbors in its sand
And makes a "feller" stop and gawk..
Leaves not unlike the hoof of a colt
Hence the name, Colts-foot, you know.
The first flower in spring to bolt
And a weed that escapes my hoe.
By any name, it's still a weed.
