Let situations
Be your motivation
For restoration.
With acclamation.
Let no aberration
Nor excoriation,
Disturb your focus.
Stay put in your direction.
ulcer
developed
from too much stress
on an old country road:
pothole
—————
bad tooth
cavity
where the filling
simply will not stay put:
pothole
In snow
Walk slow
If stuck
Hard luck
Bad foot?
Stay put
Forced stay
Delay
A sleigh!
Hooray!

Some freezing rain is predicted today
Gonna stay put, the prognosticators I'll obey
Consider my life precious
Love eating lettuce
With gobs of sweet dressing, delicious that way
Huh???
They're taking reservations to travel to Mars
Be the first to colonize another planet far
Too old to make the trip
Too bad, into history I'd slip
Think I'll stay put and just strum my guitar
Some freezing rain is predicted today
Gonna stay put, the prognosticators I'll obey
Consider my life precious
Love eating lettuce
With gobs of coleslaw dressing, delicious that way
Huh???
They're taking reservations to travel to Mars
Be the first to colonize another planet so far
Too old to make the trip
Too bad, into history I'd slip
Think I'll stay put and just strum my guitar
I look, I stare and I wait
until your eyes meet my own
and my heartbeat skylines all the way up
you look away, I come back down
and I stay put expecting another hit
one more glimpse of blue
another taste
of sky.
Greedy for affection
Such is a sin
Keep still
Stay satisfied
With remnants of love
A heart that yearns
Seldom leads to rejoice
Stay put
Keep complacent
Contentment is no affliction
Know that your desires shall never come to fruition
I hear the bombs Mama lets run
no son we must stay put its our house
I hear them coming closer Mama
lets hide
Hiding is for cowards Myla, (soldier)
be a good boy, pick up the gun
They are here Mama lets pray,
(son), Myla ...lets
They're taking reservations to travel to Mars
To be the first to colonize a far distant star
Much too old to make the trip
A goner I'd be, into history I'd slip
Think I'll stay put and just strum my guitar

Toe nail
smell stale
small toe
don’t grow
Hard skin
can’t win
sore sole
poor soul
dropped arch
quick march
left right
frost bite
big corn
Feel scorn
feet itch
right *****
One foot
stay put
two feet
great treat.
Camouflage afoot
hooves trembling
don't stay put
run aground disassembling
hurry shroud apparel
fortress in view
departure from the barrel
exemption you blew
woe
go
* It's hunting season, so I thought I would write about the poor deer :(
Stay put
And no hustle and rustle
Let life wear and wane with time
To weather in adverse weathers
Like a stone
So you ought to stay put like a grit
And hug wishes a whistle
Into a collection of weird worlds
Then dig I a stone
And rub shoulders with the great!
its a toe,
on this foot,
on a girl,
who cant stay put,
its been hit,
by chairs and rocks,
mostly when,
its only clad in socks,
its been painted,
and wiggled around,
its best friend,
is the ground,
cause its a toe,
on this foot,
on a girl,
that won't stay put.
Need to tell you, IMO
you are my very sweet SO
I'm heading out, but FYI
you'll see me B4YKI
So 'bye for now- CULA-
be patient- stay put, DGA
I'll hurry back, NISM-
just us- KWIM?

I never thought I'd see the day
when Illinois' leaders held sway
Taking the lead in this deadly war
against a virus Mr. Trump tried to ignore
Hats off to Governor J.B. Pritzker
and Chicago Mayor Lori Lightfoot
In tandem, they've conducted a blitzkrieg
to get Illinois residents to stay put
Be now normal
Make it continual and ritual
Forget the causal
Stay put not frontal
There are many things to do factual
All things you are in control
Unless fatal and impartial
Do things substantial
Mostly it will be rational
At level, reversal
Mutual, dual
Pastoral, beautiful and fruitful.
Valentine haikus
East now meets the west
In Valentine. Melting hearts
Stay put on high crest
In its familiar
Script, the secret crush attempts
A delicate push
For electric touch.
Like a tremulous tangent
Does at curves soft spot.

Hang on, stay put
Just plain: we stay one and we are set
It’s like holding on to our seat
No backing out
Fasten our seat-belt
Back to back, side by side
It’s survival, I bet
Though we go out
We soar to our loves’ height
And I am sure our path is correct
Hanging on is definitely right
Hang on, have trust!
Summer
I do know that the Summer of our lives is short
Lost in a confused whirl of ecstasy and disappointments
Crossroads encountered with paths hastily chosen
Will it be left, right or stay put?
There is no going back
I do know that Autumn follows Summer
Mellow days now
Opportunities less but richer
Time is precious
Now that Winter is approaching
Being how you are on purpose,
and being what you are is often effortless,
I suggest a course of non-action.
Self-help from mentors
will land you both pickled in the same cosmic jar.
There are all kinds of just rightness,
stay put,
being your own special kind of fit
in this misfit world.
Reality is a jigsaw puzzle for the sightless,
be the last piece to be found.
A grand adventure is afoot,
awaiting those who won’t stay put,
I must confide.
A world is there for you to greet,
but there’s no way for you to meet
if you’re inside.
So what, child, are you waiting for?
Get off the couch; grab firm the door,
and cast it wide!

My dearest friend and biggest enemy.
With a little bit of you, I see things more clearly.
When I’m in a state of despair,
and I can’t seem to find an answer anywhere,
just around the corner a solution appears.
Sometimes you show up when I don’t want to see you,
I wanted to stay put, then suddenly I flew.
Then eventually with more time I see,
everything that happens is truly meant to be.
If you see me run
It's not much fun
I do not crawl, neither do I walk
I will not say a word, I can't talk
I can always be seen
But I am not green
You can find me in any shape or size
I will stay put no matter what arises
I have no wings, so I can't fly
What Am I ?
