Apple of My Eye
You're the apple of my eye,
so, I'll bake you in a pie.
Oven fresh, I will greet you.
Then, happily I'll eat you.

Apple Pie - Unabridged Version
This is neither poetry, nor art,
It is not an ending or a start,
but in all sincerity, says I,
"May I have a slice of apple pie?"
"Indeed, you may have your apple pie,
It is not a case of do or die.
It's a simple fruit filled pastry,
thought by many to be tasty."
"As the pie, I

Rhyme but no Reason for Treason Silly Season
Damn it the planet’s on fire
Concerning..right down to the wire
Burning on its funeral pyre spire
I’m for turning.. where’s the messiah?
A heavenly choir…so we can aspire
That learning will finally inspire
An endless yearning desire
Of spurning this friendless quagmire
Discerning things are rather dire
Churning of the palaver and ire
Mother nature does surely tire
Should be the crier & trier
Of another

Don't be Fooled
Don't be fooled by his smiling teeth.
They hide malevolence beneath.
And I advise that you never slight
him because of his squatty height.
If you're feeling fast and cocky,
recall, a croc is swift and stocky.

Inner Child
You're never too old
to be young
at heart
even Freud was Jung
from the very start
altho' childbirth
is a labour of love
it's all in the swing
of things
and to about-face
child discipline
is strictly a case
of heir conditioning

Leading Man
Who needs to be a rider
racing 'round a track
way back in the crowd
I'm going to lead the pack
who needs to be a loser
spinning on their wheels
or yield pole position
I'm going to lead the field
and wear the yellow jersey
the one who wins your heart
no longer in a supporting role
I'll have the starring part
and if you'll be

Morocco Bound
Once upon a time
I set out to write a story
about going to north Africa
arriving in Ceuta
things were all in order
but no sooner on the bus
than detected reported
ejected from escorted to
and deported 'cross the border
it was to be an expensive
soft leather-covered book
and altho' I took
more than one look
I could not find the words
would fill a tome

Lol
Laugh out loud: a good belly blast is good for the soul.
Lots of love: spreading it is graceful and fulfilling.
Lots of laughs: The more, the merrier.
Losers of Lazarus: Most of us but not me or you.
Luckiest of luck: Certainly, I wish this for everyone.
Luscious over luster: You really shine, baby.
Laidback over

Casper the Friendly Ghost

each show he searched to find and make friends.
kids always ran; maybe the wispy can't plan solid ends.

New Sonnet 4 'Unlike a Spurgeon, I by dull words unfold'
Unlike a Spurgeon, I by dull words unfold
The limits of my Sarah's love for me,
But I realize that the rot and stink and mold
Are all within my mind, beneath my See.
There is no other person who can love
For me. It is my duty and my joy.
It is the Truth that True Love is made
