Rise and shine,
Know you are Divine,
You get to draw the line,
Let your heart and mind align,
Feel your energy intertwined,
Within all of your design.
Love is the light you shine,
Finding your way through the dark,
Your spark turns into a flame,
Lighting a fire to this game,
Life will never be the same,
Living free of guilt and shame,
I AM renaming

The Bird Garden
The Bird Garden
Look at me I'm so beautiful.
As my wife, please be dutiful?
But all you seem to do
is put your head down and chew.
You're not vaguely impressed
with my plumage and dress.
I think I'll go visit hen Henrietta.
They say she treats a bloke a lot better.
I'll show her

Once there was a pitiful young dandy from Dubuque
Who behaved like a complete socially inept kook
Would exhibit his largest asset
In an inappropriate basket
It was enough to make a less endowed person puke!

Outrageous Show Off
Click a tee, click a tee, click a tee click,
Flick a dee, fick a dee, fick a dee, flick,
I do all of this to attract you my dear,
To lose you is my only fear,
I’ll sing you my song, tra la la, tra la la,
But I have many ways to impress you.
Spring is in the air,

A Show Off
The belief is there to be explored
Tired as I am
Scrutinizing the thoughts
Acceptance of the outcome
The pencil never leaves the hand
Sometimes and somewhere
Tossing and turning
Recreate and reconstruct
Meticulous and memorable
Is there more lines to flourish
The riding of the boat
Keen as I am
Invention of things to come
Innovation of the future
The warmth never leaves the pot

My Big Worded Aunt
She went into apocalyptic shock.
What is that?
I do not know, but it sounds catamorphic to me.
I smile at my aunt, who knows everything.
Always has, always will.
And that means?
It means a psycholometergist was called in.
Really? It sounds more like a medical condition to me.
Where did you get your degree? Online?
Talking to her is a treat.

A Show Off Fake Off
(none fiction)
A show off fake off
She likes to show off her men at one side.
She likes to show off everything He's providing for her at the other.
But yet she still goes around trying to be a problem to another.
She lay her perfection life very well to the face of another.
But why she still goes around

It's funny how it's not enough to know you're right,
but you have to let everyone else know it too.
And then you wonder later how no one seems
to wanna be genuine friends with you.

Don't stand there looking like,
you don't understand,
I am speaking clearly,
you show off man.
Riding on my bumper,
then I had to stop,
oh your breaks didn't work,
your head is full of rocks.
You were in a hurry,
with no where to go,
and then you got mad,
I was driving to slow.
Don't think they will buy it,
I know I do not,
they hear
