Short Waived Poems

(another really nice thing I saw on the news the other day)

waiting periods waived
adoptees meet new families
blessings from tragedy...

only the Sun rolled violently that know the contents of my poem is

While boisterous waived of envy yesterday

No sound is

are you going, my dear?

 

I've seen

the paper says there is a name that

scattered into a thousand...

Limerick : Once this Wily Woman from Franco’s Spain – 2

Once this Wily Woman from Franco’s Spain
Found refuge in Napoleonic Domain
Antics at home found out
In new home given clout
All criminal codes waived to let her reign !

It’s not important what I know,
  but what I choose to feel

The facts once vital fall away,
  my fruit now fully peeled

The numbers orphaned, the glory waived,
  a whiter shade of pale

The music constant, the darkness gone,
  all truth—this light unveils

(Villanova Pennsylvania: June, 2017)...

Dripping with the salt of the waves 
I lie back on the beach and inhale; 
The energy of the night misbehaves; 
Crystals shine in the moonlight 
illuminating the path the sand paves;
Rules collapse with a rhythmic crash;
Etiquette that the ocean waives
with the tingling of a bonfire veil;
Wild ardor the full moon craves....

Deep in the earth, the cries are heard,

the echoes of pain, their sorrows blurred.

High in the heavens, the word is there,

he took upon flesh, and came with care.

About the kingdom, to spread the news,

dying for them, he paid all dues.

Bondage was free, the earth was saved,

to be forgiven, trespasses waived....

With her hand, she waived his fear away,
With her hand, she brought tranquility to his soul,
With her hand, she forced a smile upon his time,
With her hand, she directed the oceans towards him,
With her hand, she calmed the storms in his head,
With her hand, she wiped his tears away,
With her hand, she composed his music,
With her hand, she showed us what Gods are capable of....

Limerick crochetés: Once Japanese couple from USA

Once Japanese couple from USA
Skated to stardom near Tokyo Bay
Japanese throbbed waived flag
To recall champions snag
America gives no Trump cards away

Not even smiles nor acknowledgement
Watching one tier below Kim Jong-un
Sister looks down on Pence
Even Quest can’t fix fence
Waiting for fireworks after Pyeongchang

You gave me freedom and fire
You gave me wisdom and wire
Into stardom, I’m soaring higher
In your kingdom, I’m now clever

You are Jehovah
You are my helper
You are my keeper
And my redeemer

You gave me rain and the rainbow
You cleansed my stain and my shadow
You gave a plain and a pleasant pillow
You gave me gains instead of a gallows

You are my hero
You fought my foe
You waived my woe
You saved my soul...

Love gave
He waived

I'm hurt,
by jerk.

Depart 
Crushed heart.

Unblessed
Mistress.

Common
Woman

Design
Not Fine.

Pretty 
Bitty

Liver
Shiver

Heart torn
Babe Scorned

I cry 
He die

On Fire
Desire

I'll kill
my Bill.

She's hot
he's shot!

Shattered
Splattered.

Can't save
from grave.

Heaven
Eleven

Stay tuned
you prune.

Master Dave
Was very brave 
And not ever prone to misbehave 
Never left his house without a shave 
Mounted his horse, gave his wife a wave 
Looked far and wide for a specific knave
Found him hiding deep inside a cave
Waived his mighty glaive, sent him to his grave
Many things Dave forgave
But never to hold another man slave
Bells in the distance much glory gave
Oops lunch is ready in the microwave 
For Super Master Dave

My only Friend

Between now and the bitter end
My saddle horse will be my only friend

Unlike the woman of my past
Our love for each other will last and last

Since I'm speaking of her I will confide
This big ole walker is more fun to ride

When things in my marriage started to go awry
I saddled up and waived goodbye

Into the high country we did fly
Before anyone could see me cry

All I have left is my trusty steed
For the rest of my life he's all I need

By Mike Francis...
