A Whiff of Carbolic
I sniff at my hands and oh! Such scent, such ecstasy, a memory presented to my nose. But where do we find this block of adorable redness? It was sold in every shop: lovable carbolic soap, an aromatic compound, so ruddy, so redolent. But this is now so rare; it merely presents itself to my pleading mind - a psyche that puts forth...

Skew - Whiff
When life has gone skew-whiff And best laid plans have gone awry When everything is topsy turvy And you're winging it on the fly There is something you can do To rectify the situation Don't waste another moment Go and run off on vacation It's a radical approach Not to stay and tough it out And instead hope problems...

Miss Maisy cow with a floral headdress crown You are ever so gorgeous, all the way around Never have we seen a prettier bovine than you Too bad your cow pie has stuck to my shoe. It was okay until I tried to pry it off. Some old lady was wheezing with a hard cough. Whew! The whiff was something else...

Lovers choose red roses To express their undying love, For their beloved Who shines like an angel from heaven above. Life is a Paradise; when we are young, Life is like an epic film, That has just begun It has lots of pages Not yet known to you, Will you and your sweetheart Stay together, And be forever true? Like the magnificence of the rose Will your love...

Premium Member Whiff Of Foolish Me
My friends have already revealed that I'm in loved with you That's why I don't know what to do nor to say. And so am I confounded as to how should I evade this ballyhoo With no regret when I wake up early in the day. It seems to me that you are yet unaffected By the reverberations whispering in...

Smooth Elevator Operator I truly am a smooth operator When I let one loose in the elevator If it’s only me there my air blows free Have got my own detonator you see. Able to let fly with such immense pride And can play a fine tune from my backside That is until others enter the lift I tell them someone else...

Cheerful view as up on the high hill Our birds sing with gusto and elation. From phlox to daisies, butterflies flit and thrill, Cheerful view as up on the high hill, One can hear the mystic notes of a flute still, Songs that pacify the soul, with sensation. Cheerful view as up on the high hill, Our birds sing with gusto and...

A Whiff of Spring
A whiff of Spring’s A lovely thing And oh, such joy It seems to bring! A sunny bench Helps to unclench The stress and sadness I can’t quench. It will not last; Tonight a blast Of frigid air Will come on fast. But that small whiff Reminds me if I wait, there’ll soon Be blooms to sniff....

Premium Member A Whiff of Breeze
Seated on a whiff of breeze Hanging in the air I gazed at the moon Huddled in the arms of the sky. The moon waved at me With winking eyes Inviting me to partake In the festivities of colored hues Blossoming slowly to the songs Of birds returning to their nests, Before mellowing down steadily As the twilight merged into the dark. A hushed silence...

Premium Member A Whiff of Loneliness
O clouds of loneliness, I beckon you to pervade within the seams of my heart and rain ever so lightly to cleanse its walls of the dust that tumult of life incessant has fixed on its walls, to let me breathe and discover the self true that resides in me. O Clouds, be only a visitor and do not make me your home as deeper you...
