Premium Member Tongue Tied
For the winter carnival bundled up, frozen breath adds to anticipation; Steaming cappuccino filling my cup, the vertex of this warm celebration; Eliminate the need to be grown-up, tonight enjoy a childhood fixation; Indulge yourself in a ferris wheel ride, an event leaving you all but tongue-tied....

It must be terrible… to be tied up in knots, what if it clots... how could one complain? Such a terrible shame, I can't help you loosen it... not even a little bit, maybe, just cut the cord? and let that be the end of it. ...

Premium Member Tongue-Tied Dispatches
In the realm of self-interest, a curious soul, Could not adhere stamps, sans wit owning a role. His tongue, like a rover in arid terrain, Lingered on whimsy, a scoffing refrain. Precision eluded, in blindfolded dance, Tongue franking an effort, missing each chance. The stamp, a library of lore unbespoke, His tongue still meandered, lost in each stroke. ...

Whenever my speech simply stalls meet one of my biggest downfalls; They have been built high by curveballs; Forgive my walls, forgive my walls; It’s so hard for me to confide, I know that there’s nothing to hide; It may leave me on the outside a bit tongue tied, a bit tongue tied....

Premium Member Love From a Tongue Tied Lover
You lie besides me deep in sleep. Moonlight beams light up your face. I stare at the dark contours of your face, your lips slightly apart, breathing softly in sleep. I whisper in your ear, softly, kindly, sweetly: I love you dear, you know not how much. You stir, you sigh, and softly say: repeat again what you've just said. What can...

Premium Member Tongue Tied By Spring's Splendid Scene
Sultry scents saturate spring's splendid scene, forsythia mists, flavored freshness careen. Lover's lilac blooms boom youthful as green. Lattice lace drapery veils Anne the Queen. Hyacinth's honey sweetness sifts so serene. Sky's cyan ceiling is swept and polished clean. Wire fence winding ivy privacy screen opens to garden secrets once unseen. Expansive as a planted magic bean, grandiose garden greenery grows to glean. 3-18-2021...

Blank Greetings Card
I have things I want to say, But lined up in my mind Are a hopeless football team of words, Who’ve arrived all anyhow, the fools, Hung over, bootlaces undone, With no real idea or notion of the rules Confusing one another, indifferent, Just fools, willing to give up the game, My good words with good intentions, Facing the empty field, the open...

Tongue Tied With a Tiki
Tongue Tied with A Tiki What I did was to take off my tiny tiki, And what is left on body was my bikini, Told by tone, A party thrown On an island where men are a Meany. Jim Horn...

Tongue Tied
Tongue Tied Knots and twists, Coils upon coils. What a mess you make of me! How do you do this magical force To make me feel so strange Yet excited: a nauseous excitement: Reveling in utter bliss. I want to bask in your emanating presents. If you give me anymore butterflies, They’ll escape with a frenzy of giddiness. Keep making my heart skip a beat— Just give...

Tongue Tied
I've been working on working this out, finding ways now just to open my mouth, to repair and relay all the words I couldn’t say to you and make you see that it’s not easy. Before, I'd ground these teeth down to gum fighting a battle logic says couldn’t be won between tongue versus cheek, when it’s best not to speak 'cause nothing...
