Existence' Ceo

There's North and South America 
Australia, Asia, Europe and Africa 
He's as cold as Antarctica in South
All his goodness ends in his mouth
Oh! If only his praises, his replica

Premium Member Coffee House 900th Poem

The beans come from tropical South America. The biggest producers are Brazil and Colombia. When you drink that first cup early in the day, just remember your beverage traveled a long way. With all the coffee houses in town everywhere, do you thing their patrons give a damn or care?

Premium Member Kitty and the Blue Butterfly

The kitty with the greenest eyes 
Opened them to a huge surprise
For her blue butterfly friend had come back.
She was attached to her nose, that’s a fact!

Well hello, the kitty said quietly, to not offend.
Where have you been, my butterfly friend? 
I have been to South America, the butterfly said.
It’s nicer there, for there are fewer dead.

The Simple Square

The square has four equal sides.   Whether it is
in North America., South America,  Africa,  Asia,
Europe,  Antarctica and Australia it remains
the same.   From the highest mountain,  deepest
Undersea lake to the most luxurious valley it measures
the same.   No matter the holder,  or the way it
is turned by life's challenges. global integrity
is it's namesake.

Ascend the Circle

So we keep failing
Whilst the children are wailing
The strife, the blight, the pity
Scattered minds in a crowded city
Can't we hear the message?
Can't remember the aim
Drain, drain, drain
 
Out of Africa
Into South America
Cross the wide sea
No pity, no pity
Dispersed, immersed, submerged
Driven,imprisoned, risen
To what? A bat!
Knowledge denied
Division ensued
With blind faith
We ascend the circle.

Talking Cat

The cat wants out
It speaks in French Guiana
Is fluent in meow 
Just off the tip of tongues
To the north in South America
Close to Brazil
They hone their language skills
Kitty returns an hour later
It is always impolite to talk
With a lizard or bird's tail
Dangling from your mouth
They leave it out
A mouse will follow
To study feline etiquette
Please close the door behind
In South America 
Cats speak their mind

Territory De Dios

Over the narrow coastal zone,
where my sweetheart lives,
I am able to see the forest covered by the rain of May,
and it lies the treasure of kisses y stream,
the most fine flow of happiness.

My sweetheart and I take turn in watching such beauties,
which flows everywhere,
digging up days and nights, as we dig our hands
into the lovely day

and we find it so sexy and rewarded,
nothing else is so peaceful in South America Suriname.

At Sea

A cook at sea

The sea is restless and white-crested
It moves the ship up and down and sideways
Broad legged the cook tries to keep order
With dancing pots and pans.

He dreams of roses but is surrounded by steel
He knew of better times, south America.

The cruel tempest starts after lunch
When in his bunk tries to sleep but is tossed about,
He has been on his feet since six o’clock.
Hopes the sea will calm before the evening shift.

Voyage of Voyages

Cannons are filled with gunpowder-
dozens of cannon balls sorround them;
men's muskets are cocked,
and bayonets firmly fixed against their mouths;
the ship furiously sails forward, leaving behind
terrace-shaped ripples on both sides.

Captain Redbeard is not taking any chances
in capturing the treasure map that leads
to the City of Gold. 

British men-of-war are a few miles away;
the English Queen is ready for war
in South America.....

Premium Member Solomon Servants Songbirds

Solomon’s secretive solemn sassy sensuous servants and songbirds
Solicited serious Somalian solutions simultaneously with South African,
Southeast Asian, South Dakota, and South America.  Squiffy, squirmy
Spiny specialized swordfish sent spiraling soon soared with sticky, 
Silly starfish wearing stiletto heels.  Surfboarders supposedly stepped
Over stormy streams to strip submarginal substances from slippery surfaces.
Sadly some suspected subterfuge.

Premium Member The Door To Wayra

I swoop down from sky flying in on a light breeze that whispers sweet promises. Touching down on lush ground, I open the door to Wayra. Led to a forest, I’m drifting with a river that murmurs ancient secrets. The door has led me home among the birds of Paradise. Written 7/17/14 by Andrea Dietrich for the Door to a Wayra Poetry Contest of nette onclaud (imagining a place with the same name as this poetry form that comes from South America!)

Travels

Tiring of travels 
Tired of seeing new places
Even cruises with all their comforts
Just happy being traveless 
No more restlessness 
Just being happy in Vancouver
With its mild summers, mild winters

Tired of waiting in airports
Delayed flights
Hotels with uncomfortable beds

Time to just be restful at home
And avoid all the hassles of travel
Only reminisce of happy moments
In the past
Traveling in my youth
Europe, South America, Asia

Just reminisce now
Of past travels.

Premium Member Coffee

Without a little bit in their morning cup, most people find it difficult to wake up. Before leaving the house and heading for work, they put a scoop in the pot and let it perk. Making a quantity of the homemade brew, is what most morning risers will do. Nearly all the ground beans come from South America, specifically from nations like Brazil and Colombia. Just remember when you consume your quantity each day, the beans to make your beverage came a long, long, way!
