Swan ManeuverHear ye, hear ye, have you heard
about the most beautiful bird,
the swan, who's pretty smart.
In fair or stormy weather,
They put their heads together
To make a single heart.

Phone habits killShe looked pretty at the Zebra crossing,
weaving slowly, her shampooed hair tossing,
cars stopped still, to allow her go across,
who wouldn’t stop to let a beauty pass!
She looked neither to her left nor her right,
body cutting out shape in pants bit tight,
eyes fixed on the messages on her phone,
tripping when side stepping a traffic cone.
She continued...

A Fish Tale
A fish popped out of the lake
from his scales the water he done shaked
looked at me, curiously, wondering, “Is he awake?”
Well, I was still as a...

My Boy JesusHave you ever met my boy Jesus?
He's cool, He's clever and He's smart
He does all things for the good
He's forever in my heart
He restored the blind
He healed the lame
He called me out
Just by my name
Daughter oh daughter come close to Me
Yes I do know you by name
And all the countless others I watch
I draw them...

A Empty Heart Holds"In life we learn from love, hurts, mistakes and from the ones we have trusted." By Poet
My heart once held love overflowing,
joy was bursting at the seams and glowing.
That was before you came along,
you did me so very wrong.
Filling my loving heart with pain,
I will never do this again.
Now I will guard my hurt and...

In a contest between the stupid and the smartIn a contest between the stupid and the smart,
the stupid, at first, didn't really know where to start.
But after a while
of applying streetwise craftiness and guile,
in the contest between the stupid and the smart ~
the two were actually not that far apart.

BE SMART
It’s okay to be ... me.
Exercising the brain. Setting it free.
Always seeking for more.
Never give up, never surrender
To be right all the time is a flaw
Just striving to be the best I can be
Is a smart way to live if you ask me
Perhaps I'm just a mad scientist,...

My dog's as smart as a geek and other doggy poemsMy dog's as smart as a geek.
He can bark in English, Arabic, and Greek.
He’s expert in canine mathematics,
can discuss dog-fight aerodynamics,
and is fluent in bow-wow doublespeak.
And yours?
Would it be okay if later today
I brought Bixby by to play
with Boris and Doris
and Horace and Morris
and Eddie and Ollie and Ray?
My dog always barks at men...
