A mongoose, quite nimble and quick, Faced a cobra, whose venom was thick. With a dart and a weave, He made the snake grieve, "My lunch," he declared, "is a slick stick!" ©bfa032225 ...

Premium Member stick figures
(a poem in Haiku and Senryu) Draw a stick figure future - sadly diminished and chaos ransomed. Paint the landscape with the sweltering glare of global warming. Add micro-plastic and forever chemical flavorings to taste. Come share this with me - let kisses heal and soft whispers inflame.

My walking stick
Take away my blind walking stick, been stuck with it way too long, Pedals of love, unwraps in my heart, I see light approaching swiftly inside my heart piercing through my eyes, thought miracles ended in the Bible, draw closer the world, miracle embrace of beauty, a Sotho sanamarena, royalty blood now rears...

You Hope They Stick
When plans are made, you hope they stick, That no one will be getting sick, Because for every date you pick, A better one is waiting. The weather might be filled with rain Or someone could be stuck with pain, But if you’ve planned, at least you gain No more anticipating. There never is a perfect time When factors - family, health and clime...

Premium Member Stick Out Our Neck
Don’t forget We have a neck To stick out From time to time It’s an asset Though not high tech Yet it shows We have a spine We have to shout Get the gist out As a poet Words are our way There’s no doubt We’ll find the clout And show it With what we say To expose wrongs Some write apt songs To keep powers In check, and Poets stay strong Just as long They’re...
