Premium Member Kittens

Catatonic kittens
All squirelly in mind
Run like the chipmunk
And stumble like a pup
Brose through my musings
A bird on my mind

A man who is in the light 
doesn't stumble in the night; 
The truth is always in sight, 
setting everything aright.

Get Going

Hiding in comfort
Out of fear you might stumble,
Have you forgotten
The first steps are the hardest,
Hence they will be your proudest

Growing Pain's.......

Tragedy of human affairs
        fledgling...a comedy of errors
             incidental....accidental
    awkward,as we clumsily stumble

Now I Come To Rest

Through an open door
My soul shall come to rest
Nothing more or
Nothing less
I stumble and I fall
Take me to my nest
Now, I come to rest

Premium Member Well Plaid

A Scotsman going by Archie McFlip
did a stumble, a fall, and a trip
he started to sing
and to do the fling
even though he had broken his hip

THE HAUNTED HOUSE

The haunted house on the hill
Shift around at a moment's will
To draw in a crowd
Who's drunk and real loud
So they'll stumble in for the kill

The Stumble and Rise

As I entered the Wanderers Inn
I slipped whilst I ordered a gin
Poetically balanced
I took up the challenge 
And jigged on the floor with a spin
Form: Limerick

Stumble

Speaking words once spoke before,
has a room with many doors,
delivers to the empty floor,
the same with all about.
She stumbles on the stone...

Moment of Truth

While seeking
an explanation for adoration,
confirming logic for love,
or shaping reason for inspiration,
we often stumble on
creative imagination.

Premium Member words

words are blurs
written through tears
a wreckage of my thoughts
that stumble across paper
my pen cursed
by emotional mental state
my mind a prisoner

Fear

Fear running through my veins
Dispair and anguish tears through my soul.
Life seems so hard at times.....
I stumble and stand. 
Where will my life land?

Gravity

Mindlessly walking with shoes untied,
but gravity could not be defied -
he tried to grab hold,
to person or pole –
crashing down hard onto his backside!
fun

Apple Crumble

I'm hungry with a grumble
I know because I stumble
So I need a bite to eat
That is sugary and sweet
How about apple crumble

Stumble And Rise

There was a girl in a night club,
Who tripped in that crowded pub.
She bruised her left arm,
But laughed off the harm,
And danced while a dog ate her grub.
Form: Limerick

Premium Member The Stumble and Rise

A girl with a giggle so grand,
Tripped on her own feet and landed.
She fell with a spin,
Then let the dance begin.
And twirled with the crown close at hand.

Have To Remain Humble

Even though at times we would stumble,
Many words mumble and around fumble;
Of self unsure,
Cause and cure;
We had found a way to remain humble;

Modern Maturity

The mental stumble,
And gastric rumble,
And clumsy fumble,
Uncalled for grumble,
And frequent mumble,
All while you bumble
Through life boldly
And getting oldly.

Premium Member We Build Our Staircase

We build our staircase to change the world
  yet as we ascend, we grope and stumble

The higher we go, the more we see
  it's the world will change you and me

Habit

Habit cures habit
A lie triggers a lie.
Each time that I stumble - 
No more of "God damn it!"
If poems I mumble
I know I'll recover 
And don't fear I'll die!
Form: Lyric

Cowardice

Even 
in fleeting 
moments 
of cowardice,

may you 
still strive 
to be bold 
and prevail,

yet, remain 
kind to those 
who struggle,
stumble and fail!

Walk, Don't Run

Walk, don't run
for running may cause you to stumble 
Life is fun 
but sometimes, life is also a gamble 
Crawl, don't slide 
it's the toiling that gives you pride
