The weather app drives you insane;
Go walk the dog to bring the rain!
Today's speeding past--
And after?
No "today" will last!
Another poem written for a contest, requiring a "Carpe Diem" of 3 lines, syllable count 5-3-5.
you can bet your very life
on every single, “sure thing”
the only thing for certain-
someday death will come
I am not sure what it is
that lures me there
time and time again
perhaps it's the thunder
you can almost feel
like a heart racing
in anticipation
as you watch
the waves build
in a rhythmic peak
thrust forward
and climax
as they wet kiss the sand
perhaps it's the colors
the pink-lemonade splash
against almost bare flesh
as the cotton-candy clouds
appear to touch its edge
while a half risen sun
emerges from its depth
perhaps it's the treasures
it leaves behind
that mask its fury
with innocence
like childhood memories
within the depths of mind
that bring me back again
perhaps it's more...

you are my star
no matter where you are
you all that love bring
with you am insane
you made me change
your a
SURE THING
all you do
lets me know too
your one of a few
your my everything
its i can see that your plain
your my
SURE THING
having a check come in
like a good friend
you always win
with a grim
no matter what other bring
this cure some pain
its a
SURE THING
Baby you are a sure thing.
You can be queen and I will be king.
Your the prettiest thing I ever seen.
Your that girl in my dreams.
You got my heart beating like the 808
I better tell you that I want you before its to late.
Everything about you is great.
Ur swagger is alwayz up to date.
This is for you and I want you ever.....Forever
Count on me to get their.. together
We could make through any weather.
Your the reason im doing better.
The other girls are just whatever-Mario Perez
