At thirty two, at thirty two,

Til you decide that it is due....

I didn’t mean to stub my toe
At two I cry
At fifteen I swear
At twenty one I don’t even notice
At thirty two I wake up in a jail cell
At forty? WTF...

Whose wife was a horrible shrew
He beat on her head
Until she was dead
He now lives in Cell thirty-two...

Mom warned me with one of her signs
Chew my bananas at least thirty-two times
Never explained why
Digestion so I complied
An old-time remedy to ring my chimes...

Thirty-two poems a day to post,
To reach that treasued goal,
For thity-two hundred years or so
With thirty-two prayers I'll last that long,
To get over a million postings,
Well, I'll surely give it a go....

My mommy, this sweet old soul, told me this way back when
Chew your food thirty-two times, to help with digestion
Don't know if it's true
How's about you
Thought it baloney, till my bowels threatened insurrection...

May was riding on a duck
                         For thirty two odd days
                         What that girl was thinking of
                         Is difficult to say
                         But that pond got rid of muck!...

Thirty-two appendages is what I count.
Toes and fingers totaling twenty.
Lower and upper legs and arms equal eight.
Hands and feet rounded to four.
Is that what you count?
Is that what you found?
Or did you count 
appendages more?...

We knelt in front in front of his Mother's 
casket.
Tears falling from his very sad eyes.
Mother was only thirty-two!
No family there, simply empty chairs.
A young boy....his teacher..and his
Mother..lying there.

Budding, new,
waiting to bloom.
Small, quaint, but
frustration looms.
Where are they?
Blushing, I fume!
Thirty-two bra size ~ I’m doomed.

Jobless failure life
Although not lazy
Active life spend I
Thirty two years young
In others favor

After Study

As graduate

But for job
Interview
Traps my life

Failure
Loves to

Fail!

The wind chill is thirty-two degrees below zero in Chicago
Snow is being pushed around by plows that are burying cars
The wind off the lake is adding to our discomfort, but taxis are moving
Marshall Fields is open, and there are Christmas carolers
Gorgeous nativity scenes light up windows...

Birthday

I checked my birth cert today
There must be something wrong
It is 1967 making me fifty today
I look in the mirror this must be wrong
No way do I look that age today 
I will complain this is insane 
I look and feel only thirty two 
That is the age I want but fifty will have to do...

Some people have a birthday day.
I have a birthday month.
Sometimes I extend it into the next month too.
I truly might enjoy my birthday a bit more than others.
It’s my birthday, I say, and quite often.
Not once or twice.
I have thirty-two birthday shirts.
Therein, I feel I have to milk it more than most....

I gave my son a dollar bill from eighteen-hundred thirty two
    and a two-spot from that same year too
  The question mark upon his face
    implied I was from outer space

  What's this? he managed in a thin voice
    'Cash,' I replied, left with no choice
  He shrugged his shoulders at the 'cash'
    ~ Promptly filed it in the trash...

Hip hip hooray, I accidentally found a post office
That is still open. Anyway, I saw a person go in
Without throwing a brick.
Most post offices have closed around us.
I would have run back to my house for my letter
Except is would have been a thirty-two mile hike.
I do not even want to walk that letter
to my mail box and put the flag up....

Keep it real with me. 

So when I’m thirty two.
And I don't know what to do.  
I can call you. 
When my son is only two. 
And his face is blue.
In a panic because this is new. 
I might even need you. 
To come to St Clair Avenue. 
So you can get my point of view.
I’ll even fly you. 
Man, crazy how our bond grew 

Because you kept it real with me....

It's a lot of fun,
being a geek on the beach,
He dug thirty-two escudos',
in less than a week.
all solid gold,
from the lost fleet.
He found fourteen more,
and stayed for three weeks.
With some of the score,
bought a custom jeep.
Yup, it's a lot of fun,
being a Geek on the Beach.

The crux of this poem,
is mostly just luck.
Though dreams come true,
near Vero, His did....
