through the waiting crowd he strode
unfeigned humility...

How did we ever get into this mess?
'Twas when into RFK Jr's brain it strode,
an enterprising nematode....

costumed in uncommon pattern
	strode through the park
	though it was dark
and was mistaken for slattern...

Soured milk carton full of toad
Milk from the carton did unload
Through white puddles a black cat strode...

William Strode loved to recite aloud
a public orator so proud
Chaplain to the Bishop of Oxford
perhaps he read his poetics to his 'Lord'...

Remember when we strode on a scenic road,
While we had been bearing very heavy load;
Out would gaze,
For long ways;
On our sad and weary bodies surely showed.

In the good old days,
Backyard loos were the way,
The old blip carter appears,
From a dim and distant year,
Had the blip can on his back,
Strode off down nostalgia's track!...

Raphael's old mate, namely Titian,
Was thinking of taking up fishin',
He was reading a book
About slinging your hook,
Then strode off with his rod on a mission!!...

There once was a Nun and a Druid

Exchanging some bodily fluid,

          When along strode the Father

          Who heard all the bother,

Lost stickum while coming unglu..ed....

With ecstasy I climbed 
With sorrow I roamed 
With perseverance I forged 
With loneliness I strode 
With fear I was conquered 
With courage I rose 
With care I walked 
Without love I refuse to go...

A skunk strode by my window last night
Spreading his rancid aromatic delight

His must be a lonely life
Couldn’t have too many friends you’d think

You really have to face it folks
For the guy really does stink...

The doctor strode in, his stethoscope was swinging.
There was sneezing so loud, it left his ears ringing.
He went back through the door
He couldn’t do anymore
As for the sneezing, he tried to pretend it was singing...

Limerick: Once a Great Leader with empty pockets

Once Great Leader with empty pockets
Strode our World distributing nuggets
Nuggets Made in China
Slick smooth like Godiva
Now makes Godiva China rockets.

Queen of tulips strode in to look over her fields one day
the verdent green background was prominently on display
an army of yellow tulips was nodding happily her way
orange tall flowers graciously greeted her, our Queen named McKay....

   A lion, a tin man, and a scarecrow.
   Followed Dorothy, beyond the rainbow.
   Singing and dancing, they strode,
   Along the yellow brick road.
   Where an old witch, plunged them knee deep in snow.

An eerie feeling grips, goose 
 pimples
A sign of the fear present in 
 people
The dread of the green leaved 
 masquerade
On the  grounds our ancestors
 strode
It's a place where mortals and spirits
 couple.

The Doc strode in, looking quite grim
   'The results of your physical just came in
It's my duty to tell you this straight to your face.'

Suppressing a sigh, he opened a briefcase
   'Sir,' he smiled. 'All the test results show
      ~ Your heart's in the right place!'...

The adulterer and adulteress rode 
In a gilded carriage, while horses strode
Many looked on with pride
Others hated the ride  
Most of the world yawned in blasé mode  


I had some thoughts when they said he was the leader of the Church Of England....

At the end of this past night's dream, I came around the corner and saw into the kitchen, where Wilum was doing the dishes. I stood a moment paralyzed, realizing he was a ghost, as he turned and smiled at me. I said, "Oh. You came." I strode forth and hugged him tightly, and woke weeping....

She was fair, 
with blonde hair 
I saw myself 
within her eyes,
she bought fortune in my life
and she was a boon to my wife,
she strode along the beach
her fingers clasped with mine,
I saw innocence
within her eyes,
she grew up to be the woman
whom I saw within her eyes.

I wandered by an autumn stream
  looking for what’s past

I slept inside a winter dream
  searching for what lasts

I strode the paths of springtime crossed
  listening for a song

Whose words, that now to me are lost
  —in summer called so strong

Where Saffron grew
is a Nursing home now
the demolished past
haunts us again

Where lovers once strode the fields
is a motorway now
Past love, knew no bounds
With faith in each other
and infinitive love
we walk the freckled way
The Ghosts speak softly
They have been recalled today

Watching the descent
without god
in an intelligent design.

Come have a look at
our adversary.
The template offers an open hand.

The culture of hunger
in this urbane obscenity
sitting on the payment making a motif.

The giant strode into
the hut to blame the poor
who would not eat his words.

   A dime in his pocket
     hope in his heart
   Just his clothes on his back
     but he’d make a new start

   Constricted at home
     he took to the road
   Foraged for food
     yet upright he strode

   Three days and two nights
     of this, all it took
   For him to come home ~
     let mom and dad off the hook

With steam in my eyes,

I strode deftly towards the sun.

"embrace the flames that warm me"

eventually..

to be engulfed is to feel..

burning is acceptable.

With steam in my veins,

I plummet into neglect..

to a more natural plane..

where the sun is gold..

It's glow can never be mine.

I would keep it for myself.......
