with eccentric art so bright
He loved his local Cookham village
depicting it in a collage

Ideas can generate a war,
guns and bombs are used to destroy.
Words arranged eloquently can make Peace.

I once got a terrible cold,
Or an allergy from some mold.
All I said was, “ah-chew,”
And I constantly blew,
Until fresh air got it controlled.

Here lies Mr. Stanley McCarver
a proud corn and beans farmer
Stanley ate his yields, didn't bring them to mart
Don't linger too long, you can still smell his farts

Epitaph
There was virile voyager called Stanley,
with sucking lips he could blaze cold alley.
In journey from top downward
his machismo got devoured,
on V-night he lost way in silk valley.

Money
Creates power.
Buying, selling, hoarding
Society then destroyed by

I gaze upon our mantle
Stockings hung with love and care
I find them stuffed with magic
On Christmas morning

Don’t worry if your food contains fat,
Can indulge after leaving your flat.
Fat Tuesday is coming soon,
You can feel like a balloon.
Just enjoy, and eat another stack.

Limerick
When she gets mad she will rumble,
And many structures can crumble.
Perhaps this is her sign,
To stress things are not fine.
Man, why can’t she be more humble?

The sound of the clock:
tick… tick… tick
Makes me feel so
sick… sick… sick.
Weaker with each
breath… breath… breath.
All I can think of
death… death… death.

Free verse
R-emember when our love was shiny and new,
U-nused and fresh, like blossoms in the dew.
S-ome time passes, and we start to deteriorate,
T-hen our love crumbles; now it’s too late.

Hockey season has just begun.
Now glued to t.v. for my fun.
Canucks is my team,
We have common dream,
This year `Lord Stanley' will be won.

Ride the storm of challenge
And reap the whirlwind
Of success,
For the essence
Of character building
Is knowing how to define
What’s best.

Knew a kid who thought he was tough,
Just a bully doing mean stuff.
One day after falling
He then started bawling,
We found he was nothing but fluff.

Stanley was a turtle who led a happy life.
Stanley met Clarice, who soon became his wife.
But Clarice had other motives, and Stanley she did dupe.
For all along her intentions were to turn him into soup.

A mathematician named Stanley Quist
So impressed his fellow topologists
By finding a proof of a complex conjecture,
Then disappearing during his lecture.
For he had just proven that S. Quist did not exist.

When I was a kid, a friend by the name of Still
Had the first name of Stanley or Stan if you will
The kids at school
Made fun, kinda cruel
The teacher called Stan Still, as discipline she instilled

As we kiss goodnight, I gaze in her eyes,
I see myself in ten years,
And look very happy.
