I once ate a hot enchilada
to warnings I said yada yada 
	they had rightly said
	eat the mild instead
Next time I’ll order a tostada

              black crows are calling
            In the lifting, morning fog
                  warnings awaken

Heeding extreme hot weather warnings.
Dogs are seen tiptoeing on scorching asphalt.
Seeking a patch of grass.

Warnings
    Dawnings
    Yawnings
    Mornings
    Alarm clocks ring warnings, dawnings near.
    Time to stop those yawnings, mornings here.

Crawl, Paul

A young, macho spider named Paul
Imagined himself ten feet tall.
At friend's warnings he sneezed--
Said he'd crawl where he pleased.
Now Paul's just a stain on the wall.

Nature brings no pain

Though she dishes warnings

Quietly with care

She does lavish us time

And stay the best of friends.

On the Blackmoor

the blackmoor is wide and wet
cold and cruel
windswept

crows speak on the moor
of ancient and sacred
understandings

moorlanders hear warnings
upon the wind and
crows are prophets there

Premium Member Feeling Left Behind

vulnerable seagull left behind
standing on sandy beach
staring at lopsided waves
listening to the warnings of the sea
where is your family?
I empathize, feeling alone myself
a comrade

Premium Member The Serpent Coils

The serpent coils
    'fore he strikes
      piercing hiss
      sordid sway
        ~ fearsome bite

    Paranoiacs
    flash warnings too
    Those who ignore
      ~ will later rue

Premium Member Our High Fives Cannot Be Denied

We all jumped in with our high fives
Slapping and popping and loving it
Then the pandemic came along
With lots of warnings 
We do not care
We still meet and high five
and hug and live and love

Statutory Warnings

set to sell their
rusty arms

Makita Xv: Famous Nightmare

The hours screamed
Fine warnings eclipsed
By the science that is
Her lovely masquerade
for no woman upon bended knee
have I fostered much passion
The love of my sexy nightmare
Breast of the famous queen

Premium Member Drivers Who Give No Warnings

In traffic they go zooming in and out
not even indicating it at all.
When they make a lane change, 
I Just want to shout,
“Just use your turn signal, you jerk.
One day you’ll hit somebody or a wall!”

A Stubborn Fly

A stubborn fly defied all the warnings
She followed the corpse all the mornings
On burial day she followed it down into the grave
While she thought herself nothing but brave
But ended up dead without earnings

Jonah - Chapter 10, Verses 100-101, Holy Koran

No one believes unless Allah wishes and
He casts dirt of doubt on those who don’t understand!

Say, Behold all that is in the skies and earth 
But neither signs nor warnings benefit those who believe not!

Premium Member An Angry Voice In a Store One Day

I heard an angry voice in a store one day.

Giving warnings and threats to her child in an angry way.

The voice kept going, without any follow through.

I felt sorry for the child, who had no idea what to do.

Premium Member Who's Who

Signs flip, lights flash, bells sound
humming pollution rides past
“BREATHE” “DON’T BREATHE” warnings.
Tattered clothes hide the lives of panhandlers
erase their memories and ours.

Soccer

Spring is the best time to play.
Outstanding performances don't go unnoticed.
Cards are used for warnings or send-offs.
Creativity is a key role.
Everyone participates on or off the field.
Referees are important.
