Short Tude Poems

Boldly stepping out of the forties
Got my tude on and wearing my hat
Head held high, nose in the air
Look up!, look out, fifties everywhere...

Drivin' down the road
Slingin' a banana peel
It will rot it surely will

There's a park'n at stores
Handicapped spaces galore
No one will notice I'm sure

Now at Wally World
In the park'n lot
I'll not put my cart in that spot

Rebellious attitudes
Are totally Rat-I-Tude...

Cool's in the 'tude 
motivates action.
Stuff's stuff and we all have
reactions.

Gifted from birth all humans
we seek sometimes illumine
ache shuns when really
(and this may sound silly)

the light's shinin' down.

Candles in darkness
absence in starkness
let's go swing in the park, yes.
Is good for all us....

Corona Virus is not changing the birds
They are tweeting and trilling
As happy as ever

It has not affected the cat
He is haughty as ever
Walking around in his extreme arrogance 
Ignoring us minions

Dog is completely in love
With whatever is happening
Getting to have Mom at home daily

She lies beside me
Snoring away in happy-tude
Excited about whatever has happened...

Star was a Cali
Dusty and long haired
Mature when we met
You could say that she’d ‘been there’

This was her third home
Each one a full lifetime
Why any would give her up
Is crazy in my mind

She was stubborn, haughty
And chock full of ‘tude
But oh so lovable
When in the right mood

The old lady’s now gone
There were no sad tears
She brightened our world
For 28 years...
