Premium Memberwild raccoons take over birthday bash

Wild raccoons came in and took over Uncle Steve’s birthday bash.
They did not bring presents, food, well wishes or any cash.
The rest of us scrambled away from the clubhouse in a flash.
Frankly, I did not know that Grandma Willie had that much dash

Premium MemberHoney Suckle Trees Take Over

Honeysuckle trees have grown all over my yard
What can I do with this? Being a bard….
I counted the ones that are the easiest to see
They came into our house and commandeered our TV

Now a gang, they have a mascot and are wearing colors
We are just the start one told me. There are many others.
They demanded

Premium MemberWe Go 2 War -Living In The USA

I had the worst terrors last night
My mind was in a gruesome sight
The ‘ol  apocryphal scene
Insighted by the new regime

Migration bill stirs fear among
Farmworkers chant that  It’s Wrong!
Phone app saves Honduran journalist
Can’t go back she’s on their death list
Can’t walk ‘n get food without stress
ICE is cold, enforcing arrests
Or anywhere, nonetheless  
For

Premium Memberthey may take over this farm someday

corn got a look at the couple so young,
square dancing in the field, oh what fun!
He looks like a hick, but she is a lovely girl
Her hair parading in purple, he gives her a whirl
Corn said “they may take over this farm someday.”
We watched them more eagerly, from the mow in the hay.

Take Over

Sunshine in rain,
And midnights in vain.
Eyes are wide open,
But vision is already broken.
I appeared to you as a whole,
But you went slicing through my soul.
Taking you to a point of no return,
Witnessing the iced topping on every sinister burn.
Sympathy is asked by the weak,
Love and affection is all they seek.
We've come too far from this

Premium MemberTurkey Take Over

The interlopers surrounded the old folk’s farmstead before dawn.
Farmer Jay wondered what planet they were now living on.
Their gravely gobbles were incessantly loud, it was a take over.
Farmer Jay’s hound dog was missing, his name was Leaf Clover.

What do they want? The missus asked her sweet husband Jay.
Not sure he said, but it does not

The Take Over

How to criminalized the human race,
so that the corporate takeover can take
place. First report that the economies of the 
world are going broke. dramatize it, and 
say it's definitely not a joke.

Make economics starts to crash.
Let unemployment start to go fast.
Now the process starts as people start
losing their jobs. In mass numbers

Let the Dawn Take Over

A-fter Wednesday night is gone, 
I-t's Thursday that shines so bright; 
C-old chill and rain disappear, 
Y-our eyes see the early 
L-ight. 

L-et twenty ninth December break, 
A-s you wake up from slumber; 
B-eautiful beacon rises 
T-o let the dawn take 
O-ver.

Let the Beacon Take Over

M-ist, haze, and smoke
A-re beginning to leave the view; 
R-ain in torrents has turned
I-nto a pleasant morning dew.
E-vening shadows disappear, right before your eyes; 
L-ong and lonely night has turned into a sunrise.

C-rimson sky shows up, 
A-s the cold chill is warming; 
B-eneath the high heavens, 
A-nother dawn is breaking.
T-wenty-sixth early Friday,
I-n fresh February morn;

The Take Over

put your laugh in check 
because everything today 
has to be politically correct
nothing is ever done face to face 
human socializing is becoming a
dying art except in cyber space
everything is so matter of fact 
as we mimic the images on our screens 
and welcome the lack of human contact
the horizon seems to offer hope 
but

Painting #10
Thistle in a Field, by Fidelia Bridges  1875


Wild and free, 
the thistle in a field 
sharpens its spine, 
stretches its long neck 
to kiss the sun.

He is a runaway 
this out of control 
prodigal son 
absorbing the heat 
on a hot summer’s day 
racing to see 
who has out grown him 
in the
