The Lovecats

A calico kitten ran by,
Alert and rather spry.
Home she went,
Now she’s spent.
From running into my room just to lie.

Signature Style

Slight and spry is her

taste in jewellery. I weave

fibers capricious and

bold. Identical we are:

I am turquoise, she is pink.

Premium Member Apple In Eye

Listen to poem:
Oh my, there's an apple in my eye, 
It's so red, so sweet, shiny and spry.
Such a crisp, juicy find,
My mind is apple twined,
So nice, for my apple to drop by!

Chilled Will

Free trees
crass grass
flowery foyers
fun sun
spry sky
heard birds
nector hector
lovely

all lost and of no use

because

it is

chilled will

He’s agile and spry
Cat always lands on his feet
Springing and jumping
A natural acrobat
Darting and dashing
Amazing me with his feats
Never practicing either

Premium Member Skateboarding Hound

An uncommonly spry basset hound
was annoyed when his ears swept the ground
But his spirits soared
when he got a skateboard
Now he’d Doggie Olympics bound

Premium Member Willie Wagtail and the Dust Devil

Listen to poem:
Wee Willie Wagtail, sleek and spry,
Flew up to catch a bug on fly,
When along came a wily willy-willy
Swirling winds aloft willy and nilly
Loop-de-looping poor Willie, up into sky!

Premium Member Optimistically Reinventing Myself

A paregoric solution might be the ticket.
To making me feel more spry like a cricket.
If I could find the wonderful opium I need
I could start over like a phoenix with baby bird seed.

Premium Member Swans


Serene lake frames cobalt,
Stirred by rolling ripples.
Shadows of autumn cloud
Sense the swings of white wings.
Soaring ivory fleet
Slowly descends to turn
Suddenly to spry swans.

Premium Member What If It's a White Cat

We all know what happens to your luck
When a black cat crosses your new truck
What if it’s all white
Spry as a kid’s kite
Does that mean it’s good, worth a big buck?

Slick Limerick

There once was a Grandma named Bea
Who was as spry as she could be
There’s truth to the fable
She’ll drink you under the table
But you didn’t hear it from me!

Premium Member Looking Back

Things are not like they used to be
way back when.
We are not as young and spry as
we were then,
and the Golden Rod looks paler
than when
we blew thistle down, in the field
as children.

This Bird Is Going Down

I long for the night. 
the night 
sheaths me 
in glorious 
grease. 
Slippery sudsy 
spry and sniveling 
are my friends 
under the water, 
between the oil, 
tickling my toes 
and 
nibbling at my 
kneecaps.

A  charming bride blushing
A  doting mom gushing

Goof on Roof by Each Hoof

when they made a goof
we had found proof on the roof
saw prints made by each hoof

we did see spry deer
which on our roof would appear
knew Christmas was here

we opened presents
would love in every essence
with perfect pleasance

Makita Xviii: Diary of a Streetwalker

She’d recite the fairest refrains
As upon marble texture I languish
Moxie was her focus to sway me
I, never once yearning to retreat,
Became enveloped by an aura of passion
Spry was the breeze that descended
From the design ‘twas her lovely palms

Premium Member Gizmo

Gizmo, fluffy ball,
Squeaks and hops around his pen,
Loves his veggies all.

Cute and chubby cheeks,
Guinea pig with lively squeaks,
Brings me joy and peaks.

Gizmo, little guy,
Snuggles close, his bright eyes shine,
My piggy, oh so spry.
