upheld in ancient lore,

unequaled in healing;

Old Fleming, with Bond in his head,
Wrote of spies, and of dangers widespread.
With martinis so dry,
He'd wink with one eye,
"My tax forms? They're better unread."

Anyone seen my glasses, they're on top of your head!
Not trying to be funny but your slowness is widespread
Reaches all the way down
To your regions of renown
Cept when nature calls, WATCH OUT AHEAD!...

Keep coming up with these winners straight from my head
Was one of my best
Even amazed myself
Another is chocolate covered bacon, popularity not widespread...

Banners flying high, carries hopes widespread
Through valleys deep, mountains tall, it's a loud, united cheer
Forging our path, with no room left for fear

At almost eighty-three, girlies still turn my head
In spite of a neck crick, ignore the pain widespread
A small price to pay
For the yummies on display
Instead of screams of pain, they're screams of joy instead...

Going for a walk would have to leave my legs in the shed

Resorting to tall stilts
Still be wobbly and filled with foreboding widespread...

Mimicked by his appreciative peers.
Adored by his teachers.

Like kinda dead
Eyes widespread
One breath every hour could leave us with a taste quite sour...

Like a vivid rainbow
Sweet dreams come
To make our nation fulsome

Ready for America freedom
Great day ahead...

In this day of widespread obesity
THE TALE OF TOM

no!
but why?
he was kind
and so thoughtful
didn’t strut around
like so many I know
all the little ones loved him
i must say    though    he was so fat
he should have watched himself at mealtimes
just see how he overlaps the platter...

May we be blessed to live in a world
(think of the wonders we’d have ahead)
if love and caring and acceptance 
were a little more widespread…

Think of how elated each and every person would be
If they could say with confidence…
I see the beauty in others
and they see the beauty in me.

She had a haunted look upon her face
Her features out of joint in fright'ning ways
The crooked smile, her eyes unseeing, glazed...

Yet Helen Keller was a Queen, they say
Her regal bearing won her widespread praise... 

Although she was quite deaf and dumb and blind
She loved the world --- The world loved her in kind...

grey cloudy... widespread
wet words splashed on my paper
could have been a dream

naked
some would say naughty
laying on the beach

hope... a human trait
lost... fulfilled... realized...
wildlife moves on...

i am human
wife hospitalised 
might be gone awhile

the last
not fiction

I turned all the Seas into ink,

I turned all the trees into pen,

The widespread Sky the paper,

I did write,

Write,

And write,

End-

All the pens broken,

All the ink dried like a dessert,

The paper is filled in full with nothing to fulfill,

Still more your love to me,

But,

A dot more of mine to you!...

Fine Thanksgiving is day when we are grateful.
Horn's outpour of much grain, with grapes, and citrus,
nighshades, various kinds, along with lentil,
makes life pleasant this holiday before us.
We hope turkey's not hide of leather, old cuss.
Grand-scale feast, this our friendly time at table.
Widespread harvest crops make our country stable....

DOWN

Down and down
Until the murk grips
So I cannot breathe
Or cry out helpless
To unreachable assistance
Which never comes
With arms wide to accept
The burden from my back


Far above spins the light
An infinity of vortex
Closing and opening in never-ending
Optimistic pessimism
Full arm-stretch
And widespread fingers
Grasp at nothing
Continually...

N-ight is in bright zone, 
O-n the twenty-third of May; 
R-adiant stars simply give
M-eaning to the gray.
A-llow the moon to see the widespread shadow; 
N-ight is in bright zone, now that you stare from the window.

P-rime time TV shows
E-xplain why the dark isn't alone; 
R-ealize the silent meditation, 
E-ven the night is in bright
Z-one....
