Timer Dings

When the timer dings
and the oven door opens
everyone smiles
fresh, hot, chocolate chip cookies~
Memories flood the senses

how many walking time bombs
wearing fake smiles
dwell in america?

explosive charge + timer + detonator = resident of the US of A

Will It Cook My Goose

I
just 
noticed
that our oven
has a STOP TIME
button; it's probably
meant to be a STOP TIMER, 
but I daren't touch it - just in case

Good Timer

Ant
Growing
In the line
Of Discipline
To earn the life's goal
Hard work in time
Judge the worth
Of each

Wet - Septolet

the sprinklers

     on a timer

       nurture

          the earth

sprinklers stop

     just as

         rain starts.

A Hip Old Timer

A hip old-timer in Bowling Green
somehow thinks he’s still seventeen
His hair’s Brill Cream slick
He thinks Gidget’s his chic
And he’s sure he’s the next James Dean

Every Other

the day starts out
like every other
the smell of coffee greets me
timer set the night before
I love waking to that aroma
and as I pour a cup
you are here again
the day starts out
like every other

Sand Timer

If I held all of the world in the palm of my hand
and it was in my gift to give or to take, or share
I would give it all to halt the trickle of the sand,
indeed, myself, for without you, life is hard to bear.

rooster on the road

I could never run like this when I was a chick
So saying, the rooster ran down the highway quick
You are wearing sneakers! An old timer said, so great!
Alas, a semi came over the hill fast, sealing the rooster’s fate.

A Man Called Rafferty

There was an old timer named Rafferty
Who hated his middle name Mcclafferty
              So he said he had none
             Folk thought it was for fun
But get this his last name was Mcclaugherty

Two-Timer

There was once a two-timer named Drew
  He got caught by his bride to be Sue
         Greeted him with a whack
          Turning his left eye black
Then she eloped with his best mate Stew

Birthday For An Old-Timer

His wife takes him to dinner
as she always does
on his birthday wearing

bright red lipstick, a color 
she detests but he likes. 
He knows this means 

when they get home 
bright red panties will call 
like a beacon in the night.

Last


"Last"

It goes fast
like an hour glass
an egg timer
turned upside down

the race is on
who makes it to first
we approach that place
out of breath 

and we realise
where 
we want to be

is last

A Two-Timer From New York Town

A two-timer cheater from New York town 
Who just enjoys so much to go down 
Stocks tires and his likes 
He owns cars and a pink bike 
And he uses them when does it all down!

F E a S T

Embraced, 
words  
 
pour 
so easily 
gentle 
recipes
prepared  
for years 

a kiss 
mixed 
with a touch  
peeling,
slowly
 
Skin pulses  
Gently blended

stir, my 
body and yours 
  
Somewhere a 
timer rings  
we're ready

smile
  
Time  
To eat

Lekker Shaker

Ha, is Life a joy killer?
A sore loser? A penny pincher?
A dream wrecker? A home breaker?
Or is it a wisecracker? A joker?
A safe cracker? A bushwhacker?
A hell raiser? A heaven buster?
Or maybe, a trekker? A way marker?
A banker? An anchor? A timer?

Nah...Life is God's supreme Lekker!

Memento

A primal human relic 
A revenant of preminence 
In a primitive age of thought
A king without his crown.
A bomb without a fuse. 
C4 without the timer. 
Helpless to bare witness 
To each falsity and flaw
To each effect of the cause
Understanding the solution
But paralyzed by circumstance

Saved by the bell

absorbed in contemplation
wherein time disappears 
save by the alarm clock ringing
we cannot return to this world
to perform the chores we need to do
or have so decided to undertake

call it forgetfulness 
or a priority shift
we now activate 
timer on our phone

otherwise the eggs will over boil
