To be a Marine Engineer
When rollcall came
They called his name
And everyone answered, "Here!"

along the graven tombstones
volunteer, unsown

Home of the brave
Home of the innocent
Home of the heroes
Home of the victims
Home of the forgotten

Home of the dead

Fate Vs Prophecy

While fate is always churning and blazing. 

Prophecy is constantly blooming peacefully.

We timidly volunteer to understand. 

How to create new sprouts-

On the trailing path through forever.

Premium Member Never Volunteer for Merriment

   
        I volunteered for an experiment   
        to assess the effects of merriment
           I laughed so very hard
           My funny bone was scarred
        Much to my humerus’ imperilment

Premium Member Pecks

red cardinal pecks seeds from last year's red pepper.... between spring showers
I did wonder will I have volunteer banana pepper plants coming up all our yard, garden and the woods? LOL

Premium Member Volunteers

sirens pierce the snowy air
demanding - a sudden call to action
vehicles fill the town hall lot
uniforms cover regular clothes
teams converge...
fire truck emerges and 
leaves with rapidly assembled crew…
neighbors doing what neighbors do

Premium Member So, Now What

O.K.  I'm retired.  So, now what?
I could volunteer somewhere, but 
I'd like to get paid for working...

O.K.  I'm retired.  So, now what?
I could go back to college, but
That's expensive, and boring too... 

O.K.  I'm retired.  So, now what?
I could volunteer somewhere, but...

Premium Member Bless This House

May God bless this house
Where all abide
Love and care for one another
Tolerate and accept each other
Share and share alike
Lift each other's burdens
Help each other with household chores
Smile when we see each other
And care for our animals
Lastly volunteer to put the bins out!

Premium Member Autumn Leaves

The leaves where colour now has bled,
The green, the brown, the gold, the red,
As they volunteer to fall, to shed,
Are they dying, or, already dead?
Their swan-song, saying, look at me,
I sacrifice myself, to save my tree,
The leaves where colour now has bled,
The green, the brown, the gold, the red.

The Volunteers

They don't seek lights or chase applause,
The move for meaning, not for cause.
With hands that help and hearts sincere,
They're known by few, but held most there.

They mend the cracks, they calm the fears,
They build the bridge, they shift the gears.
No fanfare loud, no velvet cheers,
Just quiet strength and volunteers.

Premium Member mob mentality explained

Crowds of irritated people joined the mob
Anger and violence, a volunteer non-job
Breaking windows and kicking in storm doors
Frustration lurking at their cores

Some were unsure why they were even there
One of them picked up an office chair
Loud cheer went up as he flung it into the air
Now a thug and felon, to be quite fair.

Dangereous T- Shirts

Pretty young lady using
t-shirt written UGLY PRO,
is at risk of kidnapping ...

Bearing Man T-Shirt
with target drawing and writing
SHOOTING, is at risk of
be targeted ...

Who wears a shirt
portrait of UNCLE SAM, run
risk of being summoned by
american army for
being a volunteer soldier in Iraq ...
That was in other times ...

Premium Member Blossoms Fall

As the blossoms upon the star magnolia
Begin to fall, those blueberries now enter full bloom
The pear tree has some white blossoms
Peeking through tender green leaves doomed

The weather prediction is for freezing
No one let the red-bellied woodpecker know 
Nor the volunteer butterbeans that came up
Since the warm spring weather showed

Volunteer For a Beer

it”s the softest stage of fear
in a fluffy atmosphere
and the Kiss is flying low
upon the face of the snow-
you can build a nice career
if you study all the beer
wearing the brown uniforms
of demoted unicorns
and the black eyes of a Saint
who will literally faint
in such burning Poetry,
just like me,
oh!
just like Me!
