One builder saw a sticker on a freezer,
Depicting the leaning tower of Pisa,
He grinned:- I can do,
Build such houses too,
With my skill make the lean very easy.
A great bumper sticker I viewed
“Am I driving too close in front of you?”
Sorry my cranium
Must be Canadian
Our reputation is, we are NEVER rude
Label Sticker Man
There is a man with a special job
He sticks stickers on apples
They have to be stuck the right way up
And central on the apple
Without folds or unstuck bits
It’s a learned technique
And a very skilled job
Doing 80 a minute without error
Sticking stickers green apples
Sticking red apples
Sticking stickers yellow apples
Sticking stickers multi coloured apples
All apples need a sticker
“Honk and drive if you love sweet Jesus”
“Text and drive to meet Jesus in pieces”
You are duly warned
Did you hear that horn
Pay attention or your chance increases
Politics season
Sans rhyme and reason
Never-ending blitz
Constant News Network
Won’t give it a rest
Traffic today
Bumper stickers’
Noted absence
Relief, not grief
Excitement
Is absent
Root against
Trump chump
Hill pill
Lose.

I stepped out on the sidewalk.
Each slab a solid stone.
My feet went pitter patting
as I went on alone.
Ahead the path seemed narrow.
The pressure on my legs.
I struggled with my footing.
My eyes greased back like eggs.
The journey now a day-dream.
A moment for my time.
The wind upon my ear-drums.
My mind nowhere to climb.
With runners on the surface,
my instinct not to talk.
A grime upon my soles.
A sticker for the walk.
if I bought a star gem's paid the admission would beams be less light
.
We all went to granny's house one day.
There was a ball field were we could play.
The boys asked granny if they could go.
Granny said yes but Teresa I don't know.
When the boys left I took off outside.
Ran into the sticker patch with out a place to hide.
I cried for my granny to come and get me.
Picked me up and said now listen to granny.
