Shy Around Gurls And Ninteen Sixty Four

Well, you know me?

I've always been shy around Gurls
I didn't tell my Mom 
Until I was forty-four
The last one I had (no not my Mom)
Was in nineteen sixty-four

It was a blind date
I wore more aftershave
On than a department store
Like always I was late

She was so sweet and kind
And I had to guide,her and her dog
Across

             And a foot can kick ~

Shooting Sixty Four Rapids In the Time Stream

Shooting sixty four rapids in the time stream

Powder milk biscuits helped yours truly, 
a Norwegian farmer wannabe feel bold
enough to weather inclement
steady rain which swirled, pooled,
and eddied around rolled
up pant legs skinny ankles, which
immediately felt cold,
though frigid sensation I extolled 
before undertow willingly

steadily, and nimbly pulled this former
ace swimmer into watery fold
quelling, relinquishing, and taking
my

Just Sixty Four

One hundred and eighty words you say
For to write a poem and make your day
Attempting a task for to do as you ask
As striving towards your criteria to meet
For me that would be such a massive feat
My poems can be too long 
your attention span I’d lose
So I’ll submit
this little bit
and hope it’s mine you

The Sixty-Four Dollar Question

Now that my love is the sixty-four dollar question.
Named for a TV show back in the 40’s, before most of you were born.
Maybe even before your parents were born.
And guess what the grand prize was in the 40’s?
You guessed it!

Sixty-Four Forevermore

Sixty-four Forevermore
By Franklin Price
6/4/2018

Sixty-four forevermore
This month it has been fifty-four
In cap and gown walked down the aisle
The memories still make me smile

Many together all the years
From one through twelve from milk to beers
Sometimes bad but mostly good
Day to day lived as we should

No air condition in the school
To skip a day was sometimes cool
The beach

Three-Hundred Sixty-Four Days

Gifts and corporations do not equate love.
Although I admire a certain aspect.
The after effect.
Everything being restricted to one day.
Three-hundred sixty-four days in comparison.
To show how much you love, how much you care.
The simplicity of taking time out to do something special for the one you love
out of sheer appreciation.
Price tags don't include how vital it

The Sixty-Four Rulers of the Yi Jing

The Sixty-Four Rulers of the Yi Jing

When chieftains uncrowned yearn to be enthroned
They either give their daughters to princes
Or invite other chieftains and have them poisoned
Some choose the war-path without hindrances

And lose their lives wives their land masses
In days of yore we call smirk as dark ages
Today’s chieftains also own land masses
Stars with stripes pedigree

Going On Sixty Four

(note: written for a challenge using Beatle song titles)

Honey Pie,you're just not Another Girl,
Because, You Really Got A Hold On Me.
When I Get Home, I Want To Hold Your Hand,
I Wanna Be Your Man, Wild Honey Pie.
Oh Darling, love me When I'm Sixty four.
Ob-La-Di, Ob-La-Da, life goes on ya.

You have All My Loving, so Love

Now That I Am Sixty Four

Now That I Am Sixty Four
By Rick Rucker

Now that I am sixty four,
I need wonder, never more:

If you will still stay with me,
If you will still play with me,

If you will share my Life,
Share my home, be my Wife,

If you will eat a dinner that I ruin,
Hold hands with me, ‘neath the Moon,

If you will

When I'M Sixty Four



When I'm Sixty Four
by Rick Rucker

Now that the New Year has begun,
I'm going to work harder, to be sure to get things done!

Last year, I was content to Let It Be,
But I was a youngster, a mere lad of sixty three!

In a couple weeks, I'll have that luxury no more,
I'll have to try so much
