A hop, skip, and jump away

I treasure the moments
when my eyes catch an animal
hopping through a field of flowers 
or even just a plain field.

In my headspace,
I metaphorically become both
the field and the rabbit.

Jumping through a field of flowers
feels like an intrusive jubilation
a sudden burst of hope,
a quiet sign that all will be well.

But a plain field speaks differently.
It feels

Mark Skip Stubbs

In loving memory of our Mark,
Better known to most as Skip,
Reunited with Clegg up in paradise now,
Best friends back joined at the hip.

From thrashing about on his motorbikes,
Revving the **** out them in crickmere park,
To his mams house bouncing with hardcore,
As skip raved away to M.C's and afterdark.

He absolutely loved to spend time with family,
Travelling

My dinner

My dinner is often late now,
That's totally against my wish,
It is what I'll never allow,
I have to skip this late night dish,

That's totally against my wish,
I just want to reduce my fat,
I need to make my tummy flat.

It is what I'll never allow,
It's better I sleep with hunger,
I want to start looking younger.

I have to

Skip



Small skip, big skip, 
mid skip
for a Yolosnip. 

Skip in the Frumpket sun.
Skip in the Frumpket rain.
Small skip, big skip, mid skip fun. 

Skip, skip, skip.
Slip, slip, slip. 

Forward skip, back skip.
Sideways skip.

Skip, skip, skip.
Slip, slip, slip. 

A skip
isn’t really a skip
without a slip. 

Skip
into a bathtub of cheese dip.
Or skip
onto a parsnip. 

Skip onto

Premium MemberI Was a Jump, Skip and a Hop

i ignored their existence, except for one snapshot.
i didn’t know you could shop. i was not caught

up in the spiral, the velocity, the thunder to the top.
where was i? i was a jump, skip and a hop

away from eternity. it was burning, all the rage.
the celebrants would ne’er more celebrate, engage.

the cliffhanger, daring the edge,

Premium MemberSkip This One If You Are Squeamish

If you have a weak stomach skip this one
Last chance.
Squeamish around gooey smelly stuff?
Second last chance.
Pass on by honey, and quickly.

My dog threw up today.
not once. Six times.
Each pile a little bigger than the one before it.
It was a coral color, and smelly. Gooey. Piles of it.

I got closer and saw pieces of partially eaten

Premium MemberSkip-It

Ella was an old woman
Who wanted to learn to skip
She held tightly to the rope
So she would not lose her grip

Tossing the rope over her head
That's when everything went awry
Her face went extremely red
As the rope hit her in the eye

This did not defeat her
She was determined to win
Until the rope lassoed a vase
That made

Premium MemberGiggle, Hop and Skip

Into deep woods I strolled one day, with my twin sister,
For if I had gone alone, I surely would have missed her.
We were looking for wild strawberries, but we got lost,
Under the warm sun shining, as breezes blew very soft.

We wandered for a while, then we sat to rest by a lake, 
And after eating

Premium MemberPerhaps I Should Skip Dessert

Sure, I'm out of shape...
But must the distributors
of my frozen meal
insult me by instructing,
stir and recover?

Skip the Kiss, Cherry

I'm stepping out of the shower
with the towel wrapped around my waist,
the doorbell rings, I trip on my shoes...
I grasp for air; good grief, it's Janet!
I can tell by her expression that she's mad,
and before she explodes, I say it loud and clear:
Skip the kiss, Cherry...I'm hanging out
with the nicest girl who loves how I

Premium MemberSkip a Loop

skip a loop, skip a loop, 
over, under, atop,
skip a loop, skip a loop,
it is my turn to hop!

skip a loop, skip a loop,
a game we love to play,
out with all my girl troop,
till evening fades away!

skip a loop, skip a loop,
all the way to hundred,
count as I skip a loop,
my cheeks are glowing red!

Premium MemberSkip Around Twists and Turns

Skip around twists and turns in life,
like only a dancer
forever in music is lost.
With grace God adorns her.

Her passage marks my soul
with fineness, like old gold
makes an adornment whole.

Scorn the risks; scorn the storms,
skip around twists and turns.
