Premium Member The Bowtie

Held the dance floor, Hanson Biggily,
Smartly dressed, but bowtie wiggily; 
Till, well, his belle,
Lest humor swell,
She removed that bowtie giggily.

A smartly dressed lassie from Philly
Was quite adept at being frilly
She was ever so prim
When hanging around him
Something was special about Billy.

Salute to Quick Draw McGraw
given a fresh new bale of straw
worked as sheriff in the Old West
slightly dimwitted perhaps but always smartly dressed

Premium Member The New Ms Muffet

Ms. Muffet's back, eating different meals, 
stepping on spiders with stiletto heels. 
No longer eating curds and whey, 
forsaking tuffets as a place to stay,
she splits her time on either coast,
dining smartly on avocado toast.

Premium Member Reflection's Prayer

Creamy hot chocolate
    bathes windowpanes

  Two Clydesdales trot smartly
    down cobblestone lanes

  Through the trees, moon rises
    pools of light, reflection's prayer

  Rest now, reminders 
    ~ of an era unscared

Premium Member You Can Sure Tell it is Halloween

It’s a hippo!
It’s a flying boy!
It’s a teen!
Someone hollers with joy.

It’s smartly dressed.
It is so well groomed!
It is flying high.
Without a plane or broom.

You can sure tell it is Halloween
Yelled the Jack-o-lantern and pumpkin queen.

Blackbirds

A bright blue sky and the air freshly cool

                            as bouncy blackbirds smartly fly about the 

                            garden from tree to lawn and back again 

                                as though it be a mad March morn.

Premium Member Sight Seen-

Sight seen
the second sight sees 
the strange sight saw
the sadden sight sees seriously
the sorry sight slays suddenly
the splendid sight the spiritual sight 
seems silently

Premium Member I had missed her

Marta’s kitchen was exactly the same as I remembered.
I had not been here in at least thirty two years.
It was clean, tidy, and smartly organized as always.
a workable kitchen, with a happy sink, she said.
I had missed her, and her fresh vegetables.
But now you are here, she said with a wink.

Premium Member Greater Consciousness

Within the weave of nature’s gown
    A circled pattern smartly strewn
   Seamless seasons, spinning round 
   Within the weave of nature’s gown
Like autumn jewelling summer’s crown
    A butterfly from death’s cocoon
  Within the weave of nature’s gown
    A circled pattern smartly strewn

Premium Member January

Just keep on walking from one room to
Another, yes – we’re in a daze;
Now, we’ve finished last year's chapter
Urging us to smartly turn its page;
Arising, we’re standing to leave its show’s
Rostrum, yes – they’re clearing the stage;
Yes - plot’s digested … we may no longer graze.

Premium Member Power Plant Or Powder Room

A power plant or a powder room? Your choice
Crap!
One of those dreams again.
I had already had one of these last Thursday.
Isn’t there a limit or something?

I knew if I chose the wrong one 
I could end up boiled in strawberry Jell-O
or 
my teeth could be pulled out by rusty pliers.
I choose planetarium, I said smartly.
Found myself trampled by a swarthy buffalo a few seconds later.

Premium Member An Elegant Lady

Elevated and poised, exuding an air of grace she steps smartly, in a fluid motion. Perfectly balanced. like a lissome gazelle on tippy toes. Staging each step, she adds her own unique flare confident, yet feminine enough, to flow natural not practiced. With her sensual sassy swing she’s alluring, and yet, discernibly unapproachable!

Premium Member Whose Dog Is It Anyway

And so it is
And so it was
And so shall always be

This group of smartly sounding words
Leaves little hope for you or me

Can what will be, be
If what was, wasn’t
Because what is, isn’t

If the truth becomes the lie
And the lie follows suit
Would that make seeking either
A trivial pursuit

These questions seek no answer
They sit idle in a fog
Amused by the lunacy
The tail chasing the dog

Waves

With wisdom I walk this sand
A lasting vestige of holy land
The water’s rise had been for told
Hence, it came as I grew old

Smartly I stand upon this land
The last remnant of God’s good hand
So as the waters close in on me
I stand alone with one oak tree

Soon I'll climb above God’s ground
With water lapping the only sound
I pray the lord looks down on me
And sees I need a taller tree

The Cut of Her Jib

I do like the cut of her jib
She answers smartly to the wheel
In strong wind she is a flyer.
She kicks up the waves this flyer 
As past the boards they go and jib 
It’s my trick to be at the wheel
I stands me watch this night at wheel
Now sure she’s controlled this flyer
Wind’s strong in the leech of the jib
Sails edges are full at the jib
It gives me hard time at the wheel
In  cloudless night she’s a flyer

Premium Member Metropolis and Megalopolis

My cousin, Metropolis is jealous of me,
Megalopolis said, at the company tea.

I have more people,
But she has more sprawl.
I think we’ll fix this today.
I have put in a call.

They settled it fast.
They settled it quickly.
Metropolis and Megapolis,
Cousins, comrades, friends, 
Settled it smartly and slickly.

And Megalopolis learned there is a lot more hurt
When you bring up in public your family’s dirt.
