I watched Mike Tyson fight
At 58 was no delight sight
But respect to him 
For going to the gym
I guess the money was right

Watched 05-09-25

It's sunset.
Shadows cast across my face,
blades of grass
as tall as an oak tree.
Closing my eyes,
they fall on darkness.

sensing the onset of dread
borne by thoughts we ourselves bred
we let draw near our worst fear
and then watched it disappear

with my popcorn
I watched

A python from the forest
Weed shook when she swayed

I watched an eagle

     its long wings curled up at the tips

        soaring high on the thermals.

I closed my eyes and
An array of colors were seen,
Like unto prismatic stained glass.
I saw it start to approach and
Watched to grow.

we are being watched
by our observant oven
she keeps us honest

when we mix batter
too bad she cant set herself

Stars staged their night show
Soon as stepped in from window,
My sleep watched in awe.

I watched the sunrise
this morning
and shared its 
first warmth
with birds that had
wings of gold,
until they flew into
the shadows.

The Lunch

A co-worker took my lunch
All you heard was a loud crunch
I watched her real hard
I pumped up my arm part
And gave her a knockout punch

spotted a snail going by
I watched for a while
as he went half a mile
now my beard's reaching down to my thigh

Otter

After days of rain;
I watched an otter feeding
in loch's calm water

Leaving silver trail
as he dived joyfully in
to plunder for lunch

Premium Member The Sigh

As he watched her sigh so plaintively
a sigh filled with sorrow and chagrin
it made him wonder 
if it isn’t sighs
that initiate the wind.

Sail On

I watched the beautiful sky
As it seems to meet
With the water
While I sailed across
The ocean blue with breeze
That flows with the wind

caressed another's face
and fell to hers

i break a little more each time

Sally Sue

Her name was Sally Sue.
She always seemed so blue.  
One day she watched a comedy.
She laughed until she died.
She died in the living room.

Trap Door

The man was dangling, kicking, scared,
His hooded blindness no relief;
The hangman coldly watched him die:
Now one less killer, one less thief.

Soap Opera Emotions

I sat and watched with discernment
As feelings became so fervent
I tried and I tried
To stop, but yet I cried
Smiles were then intermittent
