Stubbornly until they drowned

Old worn useless endearments

Pearl Wedding

When we first met
You were impossibly irritating,
And yet, so stubbornly persistent that,
Like a piece of grit in an oyster,
You just stayed put,
Until, over time, 
We created something beautiful.

Tossing, scouring and rolling stubbornly
It tears here and smashes there
It roars and maul ferociously like a hungry lion
On it is trail ruins and destruction tell its tale

Wigglies

Saw one squirming out of the drain
Was it an earthworm or a baby snake?
Must it think the loo a posh place?
Tried washing it back to its home
Stubbornly held on, refused to go
Perhaps its left its past life below?
Form: Verse

Premium Member The Magpie

Of all the birds, both foul and fair, 
You stubbornly refused to wear

Full mourning at the Crucifixion, 
And were cursed with this affliction: 

Piebald broods of raucous young, 
The devil's laugh on every tongue.

Not To Me Death Not To Me

How ca I retire
So soon ?
How can I rest
Hastily ?
I am not drowsy
Nor am I fatigued.
I dictate
Stubbornly
To silence death
I resist
To escape the doom.
Away from the grave
I vamoose
Away from the edge
I  whizz.

Premium Member Facts

Facts are precisely what they are,
Indisputable;
Stubbornly enduring stains.
Pour gallons of bleach 
To completely submerge in bucket,
Fat chance; the stains remain.

Premium Member Sudden Beauty

The trees were thick, their needles sharp As I stubbornly fought my way. So heavenly, I heard a harp The scene in the clearing that day. Jagged peaks in lake reflected, Astounding because unexpected. For John's contest "A Nature Verse"

Premium Member The Elephant seen

Some wise persons in power,
Perhaps they are not blind,
went to see an elephant.
They declared,"An elephant
is like a wall."
Other people also went
to see the elephant
and described it correctly.
But these persons in power
stubbornly clung to their claim.

Stubborn

In pastoral lands
With green fields abound
And high hilltops to search and explore
The old man sheep stubbornly stands
All alone in wind and rain
The shepherd looks on and idly wonders
Whether the wether, will weather the weather,
or whether the wether will not

Premium Member April shower

Café tables on terrasse drenched in rain ~
everyone’s indoor as if on hold
waiting impatiently for the sun to come out.

April showers bring may flowers
but we aren't happy to pay the price ~
meanwhile the rain stubbornly won't let up.

Premium Member Sister Sarah

Sometimes Sister Sarah seems subjugated
Sometimes she seems simply silly,
Sometimes she suddenly screeches shrilly
Sometimes she sounds sophisticated,
Sometimes Sister Sarah shrugs surreally.

was stubbornly aloof!]

To all those who have placed entries in the above contest
I am unable it seems to finalise the contest I have chosen
Winners and locked it.' Yet the finalize button stays stubbornly
Dull.' I will keep trying to work through this it's not the first time

Georgie Boy

I haven't any motives to bind me
I'm on a greasy pole
unable to encounter the top
Conscience is for somber occasions

A dream is a foolscap
Yesterday was a brown envelope day
Waiting for Mr Goodbar
My conversations have run dry
I lost my credentials
Now we are stubbornly erstwhile

Premium Member A Mind Made Up

a stain doused with bleach, 
     scrubbed with power grout brush
           yet stubbornly remains.
   confrontation with a mind made up...
                  a losing battle.

Secret Passion

It was then when the passion burned
Hidden there subtly this desire yearned
To break free from those bonds to hold
And embrace a secret love, to be told
Smother the fire of this passion’s hold
And let it flow into two hearts openly
But no, we knew this couldn’t be
To just let it die, let it die if it will
Stubbornly though it lives on still
