Premium Member Banana Split Sundae

Vanilla, milk, and sugar are so delicious together,
But I add slices of the ripest banana to be sure
This is truly a dessert better than any other.

Observation & Perception

If a poet writes in a forest, and no one is around to read it, does it make a poem? The jury is hung, the verdict is split.

Premium Member The split of Eden

Eden

In the myth

Appears to split..

The split points to

Everything which

Seems happening

To include the

Illusory split of 

Eden...


Premium Member Lickety-Split

She ran through the streets lickety-split
like a fine race horse chomping her bit
	a race for the throne
	winner gets the cone
cold ice cream crown a tasty tidbit

Split Decision

Two hearts share one beat
Abruptly they are seperated by tragedy
Life just became a question
Sorrow became the answer
Lost forever 
The wound is beyond repair...

Premium Member Such a Tease


Her name is Weather, and she's such a tease-
   with come-and-go split personalities.

Some plead: “Excuse him, it’s a quirk”.  Others rebuke: “Not so, he’s just a jerk”.

Premium Member If I Could Split my Soul

If I could split my soul
I would want a three-way split
one would go into Cher
One would go into Bette Midler
I would retain one
in case the other two never returned
me

Amanda write limericks so darn quick
She just dashes them off lickety-split
  Somehow she gets them to rhyme
  Finishing each one in time
To post them before you can hit 'Submit'

Split Personalities, If You Found In a Husband

Split personalities, if you found in a husband,
There is some plus, the circumstances under.
He will be twice as active in the bed! 
But, here is a minus, he will eat more, squared.

Split my banana and stuff it with cream
top with tantalizing treats to extreme
	nuts and silky sweetened balls
	gooey toppings form seawalls
nothing left out of a lover's wet dream

The Devil's Split Couplets

Devils
Pale demonic devils
Satan
The earth he is hating
People
Destruction to steeples
Desire
To cast them in the fire
Earth
A realm under the dirt
Is hell
All the devils of hell

Premium Member Waves - Split Haiku

flushed swells at sunset
inflamed by pink skirted clouds…
-waves-
emote crimson whorls   

rainbow wisped currents
preen and crest as daylight wanes …
-waves-
fan their peacock tails

Split Second Timing

Blue hue, violet rays
took my breath away.
Yellow mellow days
swallowed me whole.
Red shining danger signs
caught my guard down.
Black jack, apple mac,
oh! for the age of technology !

Split In Two

How can I stop love,
when its always in front of me?
When its always there?
Do I hate!
Or do I love?

I am split in two,
not knowing what to do.
I'm lost inside,
and just need to be found.

Split Immortal

It's with longing, desire to fulfill each their own,
Silence slowly replaces their gutteral moan
If a creature so beautiful it's not with great fate,
this immortal should split, falling fast to the gate

Soon Would Split Both Wrists

Soon Would Split Both Wrists

Trump has been known to be a misogynist;
Good looking women loves and can't resist;
With much regret,
We here will set;
Sure wish he would soon split both wrists.

The Moment Split

Saying no to the Muse
  all sleep deprived

The darkness magic
  —her words decry

Saying no to the Muse
  time splits in half

Before in tatters
  —after the fact

Love grows lickety-split
In the innocent hearts of
Children.
Keeping trust and hope alive;
Especially in
The very
Young.

Some
Philosophers contend that
Love
Is unique to
The soul of Man, and I agree.

To turn into traumatized 
Yearnings

Giraffe At the Watering Hole

Giraffe at the watering hole

	
She splays her forelegs one at a time
levering, leaving dignity 
behind, easing down to a 
half sideways split; then bends
to drink, hoping no 
lion arrives
blood-blushing
head rush
up

Split

You shot me in the heart
and you don't miss its beat
nothing is as simple
as you want to believe...
numbed from head to toe
no one knows what you think
you, my hero and my villain
my life forever in half split.
