Autumn Bite Vibe
The trees donned their autumnal suits,
And strutted in crisp scarlet boots,
Said the Birch to the Pine,
“You look almost divine”
“How about a nut brown for those roots.”...

Premium Member Strutting His Stuff
Chance Rooster had greatest cockscomb around.
The deepest, coppery color, shiny and sound.
He strutted his stuff.
Put on lots of guff.
Turning off most hens for miles around....

Fluffy calico cat strutted as if she were a male
Flashing about her fantastic signature tail
Cats on both sides of the alley got out of her way
Envious of confidence that grew every day....

Premium Member Christmas Fox
Christmas Fox was bursting with amazing pride.
His puffed-up attitude would be hard to hide.
He had a Christmas hat, and he strutted around.
Boastful because no foxier fox could be found....

Premium Member My Stuff
 You might find this amusing if I say
When I looked in mirrow the other day
Things definitely were wrong
Something wasn't where it belongs
Stuff had strutted off leaving me just gray ...

Premium Member Beach Attraction
Once came a young lassie to the beaches
Her complexion was like cream and peaches
She strutted her stuff
Showing just enough
For the men to extend her their reaches.

The Naked Truth – Sequel From Another Sequel



he strutted around like a brute
crammed in a too tight bathing suit
but on its release
It weren’t no smooth peach
just a wrinkled piece of old fruit

Premium Member The Moment
It is not the many rainy days
Weeks, months, years we waited
Hoping we'll be found by one
The beloved

It is enough
That blessed moment of
Introspection holding us strong
Even as we strayed and strutted
On deaf ears, until to greater love
We are awakened.

Premium Member Turkey Dinner Turn Tail and Run
A wild gobbler strutted into the woods,
it did not see all the camouflage hoods, 
straight into a turkey shoot; 
trips over a gnarly root, 
with ruffle feathers made off with its goods.

Premium Member does this outfit make me look fat
Does this outfit make me look fat? The crocodile asked the saleslady.
A bull-speaker, gusher and a compliment-er was, this lying gal, Sady.
You look marvelous, she said, I love the polka dots, stripes and plaid.
The crocodile strutted around the three-way mirror, pompously glad....

Premium Member Arrogant Peacock and Hid Peahen
He was the top of the mark.
Puffed up and proud.
Nothing was as beautiful.
He strutted so loud.

We peahens were askance
At his arrogant dance.
He made us all sick
As he made his pick.

The peahen that was chosen
Was the one who said she’d never go.
We all heard her giggling.
She is such a ho....

Premium Member Storms
The shrewd gulls fretted and flew,
veered inland to avoid the storm.
Some strutted over spiky rocks,
others flew low over the sea,
occasionally swooping into the cold
rough sea below, foraging
for tasty salty fish.
But when the storm was over,
they just flew up and ventured
to blustery pastures new.

Premium Member Wedding Plans
A beauty, she, and, he a dandy, strutted though the park that sunny midafternoon. Arm-in-arm the two strolled, lost in dialogue about their wedding plans.

Premium Member She Came In As An Overdog
She was supposed to be the office underdog.
She had less experience than the rest of us.
Less credentials than the mail opener.
No one told her she was not supposed to come in 
acting like the overdog.
She strutted, bragged, barked, demanded.
Correcting the rest of us.
Showing off knowledge that was minimal.
She did not last the week....

Avian Visit
Two wayward pigeons settled
On the A.C. right outside.
Nine stories up, they strutted
With no place for them to hide.

We were surprised to see them;
They’ve not visited before.
Perhaps they meant to stop off
At a slightly lower floor.

I didn’t mind their presence
But my husband did, so “Shoo!”
One tap against the window pane
And off those pigeons flew....

LEPRECHAUN II
Upon walking I saw
The cutest lil thing
A dressed-up leprechaun
Carrying a shillelagh stick
With a long pipe in his mouth
And circles coming from his ears
It looked like rings of fire
Oh dear, oh dear, it was
Coming from his extra-long beard
As he strutted along, not a care
In the world, he starts to spin as
He twirls and twirls, unleashing
A strange glare

Peach Lace Skirt
She strutted in a peach lace skirt,
Engaged in conversation.
Her legs were bare for temps were warm –
From tights, a liberation!

It brought me back to younger years – 
That breeziness and hope,
When sunny days held promises
Which left no time to mope.

Her office beckoned, I was sure
But there’d be time to flirt,
For how could anyone resist
That brand-new peach lace skirt?...

Turtle and Seal
Trendy Turtle
dressed to the toe,
Trendy Turtle
with a hat and a bow.

Trendy Turtle
tumbled down the hill
Where he bumped
into the silly Seal.

Silly Seal then
went up the hill
And clapped her flippers
with zest and zeal.

Trendy Turtle,
Puffing and fuming,
Pulled his left sock up,
Fuming and fretting,
Pulled his right sock up.

Trendy Turtle
Upset and mightily beat
Trendy Turtle
Strutted down the street!...

Premium Member Chicks Strut Their Easter Bonnets
The chicks strutted their Easter bonnets all over the barnyard.
Their mother the hen was proud; she loved every second.
Their father did not claim them, they were so puffed up.
Everyone had an opinion.
Some good, some bad.

Too confident. Too cocky. Too self-assured.
These were the observations of the male chicks.
Exciting! Pretty! Lovely! Marvelous! Wonderful!
This was the oldest hen’s observation.
Let’s call her Grandma....

Premium Member Miss Bee Dee and Her Fluffy Tail
Missy Bee Dee had a tail that would not quit
It was fluffy and full, and it was amazing more than a bit.
She strutted around the yard, showing it off.
Loving it more that it made some people cough.

She was prouder than a peacock about this fine tail.
She loved showing it off to every Tom, Dick and Gale.
But one day two squirrels showed up with tails fuller and more rad.
Irritating her so, she left the yard huffy, jealous and mad....

As I Could
I walked down the street today
As one would
Wearing my bright green shoes
As not everyone could
I held my head high
As not everyone should
I swaggered and strutted
As freedom deemed I could
With my headphones on
And yellow scarf slung
I felt fashionably dressed
As only a fashionista would
Compliments were given
As I expected they might
I basked in the glory
As only the vain could
It was such a lovely day
To walk down the street
As I felt I should...

Lisa J
Your twenty six, and over the hill
What do you do now,
My lovely
Do you get a job
To earn a few bob
Or go on the game
To make your name
My lovely
It,s a dangerous trade,
You,ve had to ply
Now you know the reason why
You,ve strutted your stuff,
And your not good enough
My lovely
You,ve been blown out
No one gives you a shout
The lines are still 
My lovely
They,re as quiet as the grave
No more do they rave
Your twenty six, and over the hill
My lovely....

Foxy
The wiley canine creature
strutted in the winter sun
through the back yard, light on foot
no care in the world
A stretch, a yawn, a funny dance
not noticing the audience
of human creatures peering
through the back door pane
Oblivious until he came 
within arm's reach of the house
The glass - the separation
between children and the beast
A lovely coat, a dream to watch
he really should be out at night
But on this day he brought us 
all a garden show to delight...
