Poisoning my head

Giving me verses.

Cake

Good and sweet
Non-sour
Enough for tomorrow
Homemade
A four-layer
Chocolate with light icing
Surprisingly, delicious
Boxed up for a gift.

yesterday
juiced to the max

Wind
blows seeds
joyous hush
surprisingly

Tweeters

Some birds were playing tweeting,
In my home gardens in a cool evening,
Calm and peace returned surprisingly,
Came rain sudden like the school principal!


A Dream

I had a dream
Of you last night
Surprisingly sensual
Though I just lay 
With my head on 
Your chest
And heartbeat felt
And warmth
And held tight
In your arms

Premium Member Mister Lucky

A professional wrestler of gators
Tried his luck as a restaurant waiter
   He'd feint and he'd juke
   Many patrons puked
Seafood business surprisingly cratered

Premium Member Hunting season open

We're trying to be quiet.
This partridge in flight is surprisingly noisy.
Flutters grazing dad’s hunting hat.

My ex broke my heart and left me a Dear John note.
Surprisingly I took it very well and just let her go,
after I tied that note to a brick and threw it through her window.

I would get the last laugh
Giving my slayer a surprisingly venomous bite

Tiny little crumbs you offer.

His Kiss

His kisses were illegal
  Passionate, yet surprisingly forceful
Better than his first
More memorable than his second
His third smooch was as cold as a Bollywood kiss

Creamy

Deliciously decadent with cream it surrenders
Surprisingly light and airy it endeavours
Lustily I fill my mouth with its sweet favours
Smoothly if envelops my oesophagus 
Quietly it enters my reaches so warmly

Caught Up

Just like a spider web
In a cross point
Caught by surprise
Like a flying Kite.

Surprisingly seen
Days of a fight
By day and by night.

The light shines bright
The web dis-appeared
Life long lesson
Sealed.

Small Freedoms

Drunk on an airplane,
surprisingly a big part of my life.
Drunk and on a plane,
soon I'll have to face the wife.
Drunk on an airplane,
so completely free.
Drunk and on a plane,
until I land,
there's nothing that can touch me.

One Day To Shine

Everyone gets a chance to shine in life,some capitalize,some not realize and some failed.Surprisingly,some not known.All those unknown,one day feel this but it’s too late.Time isn’t going to wait for anybody until he dresses up and come to walk!

Two words to change your life

Two words successful people understand,
Seek . . . 
Ask . . . .
When I remember to act on them,
Miracles happen.
Surprisingly often.

When I forget ,
I regret.

When I remember,
I am a sight for sore eyes,
And lucky bugger.

Digger From Oyster Bay

Digger from Oyster Bay

There once was a digger from old Oyster Bay
Who did the right thing on a very wrong day
While taking a hike down a long winding trail
Saw his daughter and mailman delivering mail
Surprisingly on take your daughter to work day

Premium Member Surprisingly Low-Brow

If we set our minds to it, there's nothing we can't achieve But our image is lowered when we blow our nose on our sleeve Kinda destroys our stature As a knowledge dispatcher More like someone with a grade two diploma would you believe?
