Stitched and gilded fell apart

From his staunch patterns...

Trump poses as a staunch smarty
Disciple of Moriarty
With raunch he'll enthrall
And soon abuse all
Launching his psychopath party...

Blankness staunch
Doll on tethers view.
Mooring void
Aiming high
One choice is on the table.
To gaze through the dark...

Wagging furry tail
After coming home from work 
Makes me smile with joy 
Seeing in her button eyes 
The loyalty that pets give

Launch Staunch Supporters

What we will  want to do is launch, 
Supporters who  seem so staunch;
Were Faithful full,
With white  wool;
In great shape without a paunch.

E-ven 
R-ugged wind 
R-ocks your true faith, 
Y-our strong love, your staunch hope, and trust in God.

This is about baseball America's game
Been a fan since the forties, sure isn't the same
The shift, the relievers
The staunch believers
But the game's not the same, whatta shame...

Make my day! Clint McRoostwood said.
His attitude was as staunch as his comb was red.
Many scooted away from him with dread.
His movie star status was totally well fed.
He pretended that he was superior, and well-bred....

rough wooden background
light behind your laddered frame
woven bullrushes your seat
unbroken staunch stiff
what spinsters have you held tall
with locked knees and fallen heads

A staunch Hillary
Supporter so had to give
Campaign a quarter.

So would you say this: 

Haiku has been in 
Completely correct format
The way I see things.

If not, how should I
change it?...

The sun beats down on my garden's back --
Looking up, I squeeze my eyes tightly
Seeking a cloud that will let down
Her skirts...
I mumble a prayer for moisture
As once-staunch squirrels slump
Their faces drawn, like withered leaves...

Staunch, spine straight as a flagpole
    Chin tucked into neckfolds of flesh
  Face itch, lips blubber incessantly... 

    Hips thrust forward... twin bulldozers
  Life expectancy, a speck in a sandstorm
    Rows of medals under gray sash, Iraq...

Brilliant for sure
Perhaps an enigma
Monotony’s cure
Cultural stigma
Secure transactions
Visions of Mars
Free-speech imperatives,
Self-driving cars
Staunch libertarian
Doge crypto bump
But buying a Tesla?
That’s voting for Trump

Prize well each day
That comes your way


Live a staunch peace
With simple ease


Do not delay
With fun and play


Give all to zest
In your life quest


Prize your time here
Touch all with cheer

,

      His thick
        bulky
         solid 
    large hands
  enveloped her
        tumid 
      staunch
    hot breasts

Tenacious he was
  holding firmly
       as she
 to her shudder
   her tremble
         alas
  calm warmth

     last gasp...

Troops fought kings sunk, and nations fell.

saga is marred by our staunch deed. 

grace sounds thru ages, but who tell?

It traps us with stern bars and Greed.

I refuse to stand alone
I call on my bothers and sisters in faith
We will not be suade by misguided trends
We will be focused and staunch in our charity and kindness
We may bend but we will not shatter
We love all and wish all good fortune
And desire all the best of life...

The crocus blooms with jaunty arms
as cells launch spells to quell all harms.

Unforgiving ecologies
spark tough bark with staunch energies

undaunted by brittle terror
since life and strife fill the bearer

with pain made bold by creation
to hold such gold in elation....

The flow of time and I but a stone in the current

Upstream I cannot know,

Downstream but a memory.


Piece by piece I am worn,

To the past I become,

A shadow of what went before.


But I stem the flow, life's blood,

Staunch and strong,

Present in this single moment.

You are imbued with a misplaced elegance
Unsuited to a staunch buoyant belief.
Remarkable character strength disguised
And spies hidden like the thief.

A spark of recognition only brief
Glimpse a secret divinity spread thin.
A pilgrimage to discover inside
Start outside then work within....

Air, water, earth, fire:
     basic elements of Earth-
          staunch blessings for all of life.

          Water, earth, fire- null
     without fundamental air
gasped to sustain life past birth.

I sense each tree's confident stance
and feel their staunch faith strive
to block all ills mankind rooted
that taint their sky aimed growth.

My soul reels from heartbreak in limbs
though fortitude firmly
determines them heavenly bound 
despite man's selfish ways.

Staunch is our Lord, friend anywhere,
True friend, like jewel, precious and rare,
Everlasting blessings guides,
 Accept true love at our sides,
Devoted to leading to divine,
Founded great faith, yours and mine,
Acknowledge each human race,
Steady path, His immortal face,
Trust God's bridge to mortal grace....
