Short Tittle Tattle Poems

Meena can drive Corona,
whispered Tina to Nina.
Is she a doctor?
How could she master?
Ney dear, it is Corolla....

little minded people with so little in their lives
promulgating rubbish with their cretinous wives
ooo-ing over news of celebs leaving dives
ahhing over gossip from journos with knives...

My wings are in immaculate form
It would assist in keeping me informed 
I’d fly from pillar to post
In salons I'll be engrossed
Truth be told, I’ll never be misinformed...

Gossip?  Not I…

Does everyone do?
A little high quality 
Neighborly sharing.
Chitchat and tittle-tattle
The latest information…

Yell 'n tell, here and now 
And again felt myself yowl
I grasped that slant 
As the skirt of a poem chant

Howl of voice and pen
Shout, articulate, vast in gist yen
Quill 'n reed in actuality
O' I bend one's ear, tittle-tattle lyrically...

I always sought after to clear up the tittle-tattle
    that continously  throws mud at my character 

   Incessantly  belittling  and throwing  sour grapes
   created to denigrate with contempt and dishonor
   thrown at my name.

   God is so amazing,  so amazing  he will not leave us
   nor forsake us, He will constantly  bring us out of
   our tests....

If you hit me and I hit you back,
Tit for Tat.
If you lie to me and I lie back,
Tit For Tat.
If you steal from me and I steal back
Tit for Tat

This for this
And that for that

I think that sometimes this is true
And it should be so,
Other times its common sense
Not to tittle-tattle so.

If you do a kindness
You cannot take it back.
It would be mindless,
To expect Tit for Tat....

tittle-tattle wobble wall 
don't know how to make that fall 
see how hungry is my tummy 
eating thingling; it's so yummy 
tittle-tattle wobble wall 
give that thingling; make it fall 
promise!!! I will never do tell 
making it vanish in my bell                                                         
tittle-tattle wobble wall 
why not make the thingling fall 
give it or I will call my mommy 
will poo on you; my little Tommy...

Listen to poem:

River flows like silver thread,
reflecting the dawn sky red.
Trees on the banks, sway and yield,
Their leaves rustling in the field.

As mist lifts, the river glows.
A new river no one knows,
flows onward, both day and night,
ever present, such delight.

Hear its gurgle, its babble
Learn from its tittle-tattle.
For the river knows its way
to stay on track, never stray.

At sunset, river turns gold,
its flow, a sight to behold
Its riches gleam all aglow,
Meandering to and fro....
