abiding by the rules of health strictly.

He tried holding but was toss
Through a salon door
Rump busted his core
That horse strictly showed him who's boss

There was a young librarian
Who's strictly vegetarian
For her wheat and Kale makes a meal complete
while her beau needs meat to eat
Says she; now that's just barbarian

Suggesting some simple solutions,
Six silly soldiers strutting stridently
Suggested super serious Seussian.

There once was a puppy named Sam
Who refused to eat nothing but ham
Until his poor mother
Gave birth to another
And now he dines strictly on Spam

Hunt of the Tiger

hunt of the tiger...
slow pace;keen smell and claws out
it pounces on prey.

Pay

Pay, by the way

Is strictly passe

Be above the fray 

Don't bray

Horses eat hay

Their job is to run while others 

Sit on their backs for play

Imagine their day

Ghosts at one time scared me
However, I then grew
Only to find people
Strictly the ones I knew
Thinking thoughts unbridled
lost in Neverland--true
Yield fear like ghosts that flew

Feeding the Birds

That pigeon disturbs poor robin,
Sometimes gets all the food
But not always it must be said.
I could put up a sign,
STRICTLY NO PIGEONS
But would they read it?
They're only birds after all.

Girl, Together We Can Make It

Girl, together we can make it 
Our hearts beat as one
It is strictly about us
We have so much fun 
We share and care about one another 
Moments will come and go
Together, we shine bright 
And go with the flow

days ago Guy Fawkes’ fireworks were heard
other days may have meaning to be observed
Thanksgiving isn’t a given
strictly U.S. is this tradition
in Britain July fourth is always after the third

A Clerihew For Brucie

On the death of Bruce Forsyth, British entertainer

The Forsyth saga is now gone
strictly come dancing the whole night long
You played cards right with Anthea, your girl,
So we played it at home and gave it a twirl.

Premium Member Romantic Enchantment

Under a chandelier of crystal
   Two lovers kissed 'til
Their bottle of champagne
   Entirely drained

You may deem this romantic
   Or enchantment bacchantic ~
Though I am no mantic
   The distinction's strictly semantic

Chaos Myth

If
I
Knew that
Chaos was
Observational
Mythology, that all things are
Strictly predetermined, I would not want to hear that
My power of observation determines the course of reality as it comes.

That would be too convenient.

king of being alone

just like a message
you turn me on
erring on the side of caution
all i wanted
was your voice 
like a teenage dream
you haunt me
all the pathos you can reach
new broom to sweep
long legged candy yet
dancing strictly alone

Premium Member Anti-Diagonalism

We must be fastidious and particular,
our sidewalks, strictly perpendicular -
and we must sternly ask, who would be so crass
as to cut across our new mown grass.  
This despicable heathen can't be one of us. 
He can only be Pythugorus.
