Surely, my son, you work to bless us

Off-the-cuff, like Dr. Watson, no ego, how so?

Needing no reason, you just enlighten....

“This murder was done by a dachshund!

And walks with two pairs of socks on.”...

She play’s a witch, with spells she may resort
To save our lives against the evil Voldemort

In a time of loss,
there is only sorrow.
Cry not for what is gone,
Rejoice in memories past.
Feel a thought, feel a whisper.
Until we meet again...

WHAT was the reason for kidnapping Watson, my friend?

What was once a matching pair are now so very far apart
You hold one key, I hold the other, you are forever in my heart

I use the key daily, and it always reminds me of you
A gift unique and special and I know you use yours too

She’d thought he was eyeing her rack

as with great charm, he led her out back.

But she realized too late

this would be her last date

as her neck got sucked dry by a Drac!

Sherlock Holmes was seen at the local bar
Spying while drinking and smoking cigars
Ready to break his crime case
And take down the shady place
While Watson safely waited in the car

KEY FOR MYSTERY LOCK

There once was a clever sleuth named Sherlock
Made key from pipe smoke for mystery lock
Through hidden lens he saw well
Place where puzzle pieces fell
Befooled Watson hit his dumb head on rock.

And those were the times of our lives,
the late nights and restless dives...
Hope given one shot at a time,
a nickel a tale, a lie for a dime.

And those were our lives of the times,
a charade with partners in crime,
the fading of twilight's last beams
as we watch the waning of dreams...

    A stray lock of hair
       in the corner right there

    In the parlor, a faint whiff of perfume

    The couch messy and wrinkled
       piano’s ivories uncovered and tinkled
    I know what you’re thinking, dear
       but please don’t assume

    For these are just clues, all part of a poem  
       ~ detective-style, ala Watson and Holmes

There once was a poet named Jan
Who was looking to find a new man
Joined the Naked Ramblers Association
With little or no hesitation
Now I’m swinging as much as I can

By: Haley Daniels
Reach
Gasping for air, life, and love
As I watch the tangled hands from above
The water is green with guilt and greed
It is time for the famished beasts to feed
Naked I lay here, preparing to die
Faint sounds of my crew starting to cry
Any hope of survival has drifted away
The sadness takes over, it’s too late to pray

Inspired by Watson and the Shark...

The judge who was missing his law books,
called on Sherlock to solve the case.
Holmes carefully looked for any clues
as he searched all over the place.
"It's elementary, my dear Watson,
the easiest case that I ever saw,
his book weren't stolen, His Honor, the judge
has simply laid down the law."
