Premium Member Direct Flight - Paris to LA

Mondo left the ground to soar 
in the Olympic games of twenty-four.
So, next Olympics, he would not be late, 
He came down again in twenty-eight.

Baby Then and Now

At birth, little baby just ate.
He pooped, peed and cried until late.
Today it’s the same,
his parents would claim,
although he has turned twenty-eight.

Mirror Mirror

When I look in the mirror
I seem so tired.
I'm only twenty eight,
but I'm always wired.
Seems like life has conspired
to make me require
to find ways not to be so dire.

Happy Birthday Fat Man

In the many long years since your birth
You've made twenty eight laps with the earth
In that time you've taken
Your fair share of bacon
And thus greatly increased in your girth

Premium Member Jester and the Purple Hag

Jester invited the purple hag to dine.
She noticed his weird nasty ugly whine.
She gives him voice lessons.
In twenty-eight sessions.
Their partnership is delicate and fine.

Premium Member If a Coin was Made in my Image

If a coin was made in my image
I would choose my photo at twenty-eight
I was darling back then, forty-five years ago
of course, back then I did not know it
time has given me a new perspective

Sweetest Sound

I'm very young, mother reads
her voice leads my imagination
romantic, fantastic
sweet, like cake
 
I'm twenty-eight,
hold my son and read
familiar poems, tales
from an orange book
 
echoes

Matthew McGrory of Westchester, Pennsylvania
has the world’s largest feet.

R-each for God's kingdom
O-r the blissful abode in heaven; 
M-ove on to attain salvation, 
E-arnestly let your heart
O-pen.

D-ay twenty-eight September, 
A-spire to remain chosen, 
Y-earn to be fortunate child, 
O-ne who's no stranger to heaven.

Best Dressed

I bought her a blouse
white silk, long sleeves, full enough
to wear her heart on.

I bought her some slacks
twenty-eight inch waist snug ‘round
those hips she shoots from.

And boots for the feet
she thinks on, has the world at,
and I swept her off.

Premium Member Not the Nieman Marcus

Erik was incredulous.
He was twenty-eight, a neonate in the fashion world.
You are sure they said Nieman Marcus?
His wife smiled at him.
THE Nieman Marcus?
I guess so.
He was given free reign.
Youngest photographer to ever work for the Nieman Marcus.
Erik Madigan Heck, my friend.

Premium Member Dogs shangri la

the dogs have a sixty foot by twenty-eight- foot play yard
a Shangri-la to jump and chase and play and wallow
So where are they? What are they doing? Are they barking?
Are they romping and chasing? No. They are lying next to me.
So close that I cannot move my lawn chair either direction.

Premium Member Finally Decided To Give It Up

Cute baby clothes I say.
Weird that you have ten thousand blue things and only one pink item.
I always wanted a girl, she said.
Kept that onesie around for years, hoping.
Twenty-eight years of marriage, but now 
I have finally decided to give it up.
Her eight boys laughed.
They were 15, 16, 17, 19, 20, 22, 23 and 25.

Bonarda

Bonarda?Twenty eight ripples 
counted , flow? actually, 
rain drops spare spaces.
?Newcastle darkened by windows,
shut,? a longing for short rope.
?Growing window boxes fell?, 
by taxis and the lost echoes?
Part time clocks between dead towers?Tick, 
through the eroded scraggy day?
Arrows flew blistered stray crows

Because of Strong Faith

B-ecause of strong faith, 
O-ne hope is kept alive; 
B-elieving in the Almighty, love will just survive.

J-ust because of strong faith, 
A-nother mountain is moved; 
V-ilest weather has turned
I-nto shine shared by moon.
E-arly morn has broken
in September twenty-eight.
R-ise of the sun begins because of strong faith.

Life That We All Share

L-ife that we all share, 
I-s in this troubled world; 
Z-estful heart we possess, 
A-s a strong wind has swirled.

M-orning we all share, 
A-s the dawn starts to break; 
R-ise of the sun begins, 
C-heering up the ache.
I-n twenty-eight September, we breathe the one same air; 
A-lmighty is the source of life that we all share.
