My hair’s standing up,
cosmogyral frequencies
here for a visit.
An unsettled heart clamors ..
your embrace feels just like home.
Courage is not simple
It is not without fear
Courage is feeling afraid
But standing up to danger near

At the beach
Swimming along
Standing up
And getting pushed back down
But no matter
How many times that wave hits ya
You just have to get up, and fight
Some of the best advice I received from my Teach
When I was to give my 9th grade speech
As I was standing up there
Was to picture the class in their underwear
She wished to be
A poet of renown,
Wrote all of her poetry,
Standing up-side-down.
Of course, because of this,
No one read it,
The King demanded
She be beheaded.
I project a psycho 'cus I know that it scares,
Butterflies inside you and standing up hairs.
I’m one for the psychological impact,
I say things, knowing how you’ll react.
I Salute You General Colin
Your Becoming The First African American Secretary Of State
Your Heroism standing up for All Of Us Americans
A True American Hero for all to Look Up to
If they don’t understand it
Then you’re got it wrong,
If they get bored then
Your Pome is too long,
If all you can do is
Just stand and swear
Are really sure you should
Be standing up there.
Rebirth
is a choice
that the bravest make
to rise from the black, hollow ocean
forever standing up and never going down again
beginning the final round against despair
and winning the fight for eternity
Have I jealousy of my dear mate?
I don’t think I have any, but wait!
I sure wish I could pee
in the wood near a tree
like my husband does, standing up straight!
For Line Gauthier's Funny Limerick Contest
Listen to poem:
Standing up, on top
straddling the seesaw
one foot on each side, now.
Whichever way I lean
sends the upside down
and the downside up.
Slippery slide
to the flip-side
is unworkable.
It's lunge, parry
riposte.
~Very cold waters, i had jumped right into them, stole my breath away.
~I can be frail, my will keeps me standing up, i will not give in.
~Out of the waters, the warm breeze takes hold of me, drives the chill away.
A perfect metaphor for everyone's life is like
Standing up in a hammock or standing up on a bike
Now that's totally silly
And quite unhealthily
Could fall down, break your crown, should stick to a trike
It's a requirement for us guys to stand up to pee
There's always a chance we'll pee on our knee
Sitting down like lady
Well at home maybe
Mighty awkward sitting on a urinal to me

Men do it standing up,
women sitting down.
Dogs need to raise one leg,
this is what I've found!
I know just what you're thinking,
so just to let you understand,
all that I'm referring to,
is simply "shaking hands"!
Glowing green-eyed faerie of spring woods of the west
Your blue hair and tiny horns standing up to every test
I watch you from the coziness of my warm sparrow nest.
Loving you as much as blue jay or little robin red breast.
Listen to poem:
It's easy to be in kind
cruelling self to denial.
Harder to step up, unboxed.
But why must you beg, aplogise
for stuffing your ego with struts,
standing up, off your knees;
self supported, doing your own stuff.
It was at grandads old farm one winter we did freeze
the snow was so high it reached up to our knees
even the cows went pale
as the milk froze in a pail
the chickens laid eggs standing up, then they sneezed.

standing up for the underdog
trusting others to give their best
responsible ethics
expecting the good from everyone
noting optimistic attitudes
giving people many chances
teaching kindness and respect
helping humanity with humility
Snatching them by their head
Pinning them to the ground
Tearing off their limbs
Pouring water on their wounds
Standing up and carrying them inside
Showing them to your mother
She stares and says:
“What did you do to those poor ants?”
Wisdom, bookish, head-bent
Over volumns - of dust!
Less to scored brows that to scared hearts
This more needful entrust:
True growth. As is sustained
Standing up to, stronger
Life, the temptor. Lurks after all
School day's bully, longer.
The poet is in the coffee shop,
jotting down words,
The words of the poet,
so surreal, so honest,
Words of the poet,
are read by many,
standing up on a stage,
speaking words into the microphone,
drawing the audience in,
the words of the poet...
Banana went to culinary college
Yellow, firm, wanted so much knowledge,
Standing up in last class,
Ending up in large mass,
Now was the time for all to acknowledge.

Contest Name The once was a man from Dunkirk..
Lone walk. Fear the night.
Soft footsteps.. black.. still, spooky.
Fast flutter... Owl hoots.
Neck hairs standing up!
Headless horseman..giddyup!
Eerie pumpkin grins...
Noises behind me...
Closer....hot breath on my neck!!
Beat feet! Run like heck!!!
