In softness outside
The clouds waft on by beyond
Sighing without rain
As umbrellas utilized
To shield women from the sun

Mental case with disorders had realized;
We all know,
Is psycho,
And all reporters he continually chastised.

Every darkness has its light
As the night has its light

Light is waiting for you
Make it shine and bright

How its utilized by you

Use the light proper n well
You will find your dream

Work on your dream
You will find your goal...

Talked Over:
Unappealing,
non-vocal,
nearly invisible

Looked Over:
Too young,
too old,
too short

Passed Over:
Avoided,
Unconnected,
ignored

Crossed Over:
Misaligned,
marked off

Worked Over:
No longer desired,
Over utilized

is an elephant's trunk a nose or a hand?
Wanting to find out I traveled to Africa land.
One of the elephants used his trunk to wave at me.
Saw another wipe his trunk against his sleeve.
Female utilized her trunk to take a river drink.
Now I am consternated, do not know what to think....

There is something to savour
in that very first nick
blemish
scratch

dent

What ever it may be
it's yours now 
baptized
utilized

broken in

There is utter liberation
a tossing of fears
as pristine 
can't

dented can

It is in my echoes 
That I hear 
That voice 
I said I’d never be 
It’s the style she utilized 
That is mirrored on to me 
And here I vowed I’d never be like her 
But here I am here doing things her way 
So I guess I am a product of my Mother 
Well whom else would I follow?
A smile 
Then swallow!...

Precious counter-weights

ships utilized for sailing,

ballast stones got dumped offshore.

But in empty hulls

sailors found common boulders 

held incalculable worth.

Urge To Discover A Dirge

Ultimately what they utilized was an urge,
For dire need that would discover a dirge,
And said,
Many dead,
After apparently there had been a purge.

Bet you won't find another limerick like

Boots can be recycled for many things
This one was Daddy’s and it kind of zings
Reminding me of all the days I spent watching him rebuild a car
I tried walking in them when I was four, but did not get very far.
Now my twin sister has his left boot, and I have utilized his right.
I keep paintbrushes in mine, hers I think she keeps out of sight....

It can go both ways
Can be given
or received
It is an attribute
that must be valued
and utilized
on various occasions.
When you think
someone has betrayed you
or done you wrong
it is better
to forgive, realize
that sometimes
you have done
the same. 
Life goes in circles,
things come and go,
there is an everlasting
crescendo of give and take
So go with the flow,
don't hold grudges
Forgive...

The blender of time
has utilized my face
as a map to find
its way back home.

Discombobulation 
is made with the wits
of the desperate 
and the alone.

To be dangling
off of a cliff
holding the hand
of someone
you do not trust.

Has made me more
of the man I am
than any loyal
or delicate love.

I hold in my hand
god's only command
to complicate
my own.

And with this pride
and sin inside
I carve my word
in bone....

My girl and I, we have a thing
We do when we’re driving along,
If we come by a vacant house on the road,
We explore with a beautiful song.

Our song has no words, not a single verse, 
Nothing that’s read from a sheet.
Our song is an emotional done with ourselves,
By keeping a primal beat.

The sheds, the shack, the condos and flats 
All utilized in that small moment of truth,
Utilized and loved by both of our hearts, 
Drinking from the fountain of youth....

1.The question is under what authority they collected the money?
2.Ran ads in cinema halls and constituted a five member bench to supervise the fund or construction of the dam. 
3.Since the fund is lying there and not being utilized they should have the decency to return the money to the gullible people who gave it to them.
4.Give back that money to such government servants whose salaries were forcibly contributed to humor him and the contributions that were given.......

The full basket was tipped when the hedgehog got there.
He looked around, utilized all of his senses and sniffed at the air.
No one was around, so he waited, not wanting to steal.
He truly is honest! The animals said, understanding his deal.

They had put the basket in his path that day
To give him some goodies that might make his children gay.
He would not take charity; he was too proud for that.
They were all relieved when he finally accepted the basket as it sat....
