Short Undercooked Poems

Stuffed with well cooked food
Turkey drumsticks do extrude
Undercooked statements are rude
Family members feud
Football sets the mood
Expanding bellies cunclude
Digestion sounds are crude...

Time not only seems to be speeding up…
  it actually is

Perception trumping reality looking forward,
  not looking back

Undercooked moments blow into the future,

on Mayhills low,
we took their sweetness
to the stove,
we thanked the Lord
for the glorious glow
but we thanked him more
that our day did unfold,
thankyou for the undercooked roast(never got on with that oven)
for the sherry we're drinking
and your Birthday, we toast....

the sweet salt got me baited for ya,
evasive my tone pervaded with gloom,
on seeing the walls painted in blue reminds me of the blues....
