I'll take you to my secret place,
where sunlight spreads chantilly lace
across the verdant forest space.
We gather there,
away from city's frantic pace--
our pied-a-terre.

Convening squirrel, rabbit, fawn,
we meet to greet the coming dawn
and welcome grace of tardy swan
with hearty "Ciao!"
There is no need for Amazon.
It's here right now.

Let the creativity flow from your soul! *Cool*

Someone please help me! Anyone?

I am in a desperate predicament and have nowhere to turn.

Every time the human beast Bubba goes to the Mexican food restaurant, he starts ripping members of my Toilet-paper family away--brothers, sisters, cousins, aunts, uncles--and feeding them to the voracious creature Toilet, after wiping them in that gooey, stinky brown stuff. The nasty fluid produced by diarrhea seems to have no end, and my turn is coming soon.

Please hurry! Ple....

Good morning, Spring!
It's a zippity-doo-dah day
when robins sing
and daisies bloom in vast array.

The rising sun
brings forth a sense of wonderment,
like cinnamon
on slice of morning sentiment.

We dance around the dogwood tree
and sing about rebirth with glee

to celebrate
your return to our latitude
and consecrate
each fascinating interlude

by sowing more
and nurturing in fertile soil
to build rapport
with Nature's plot through garden toil.

When Putin slaps his thigh,
his army soon descends,
promoting evil trends.

When missiles start to fly,
our heroes say goodbye
to family and friends.

Too late to save the whole
of population's folk
beneath destruction's cloak,

all stand aghast at toll,
but try to take control
amid the fire and smoke.

We witness misery
now etched in history.

I fervently wish
that my gibberish
might make someone smile
and even beguile.

To remove all doubt
about my literary clout,
just ask my pap
and call it a wrap.

We plant spring seed
where open space is found
while snow is still on ground.

With folks to feed,
we get an early start
with creaky wooden cart.

The food we need--
like carrots, spinach, beets--
will soon be healthy treats.

The farmer's creed
will guide the way we work.
This trust we will not shirk.

In muddy mead,
muck boots and winter coat
provide the antidote.

If you take heed,
the spunk that labor brews
defeats the winter blues.

This simple deed
will cultivate a sense
of value to dispense.

Deep in the bowels of the ship,
beneath the engine room deck plates,
the bilge monster accumulates
grease and oil from their drip, drip, drip,
creating serious fire threat,
which makes Machinist Mates upset.

Lowly crewman must make a trip
down below, crawling on his belly
to wipe up that smelly jelly
and strip bilge monster of his evil grip.

The passion pulses in my breast,
as I proclaim desire for you,
embarking on my fervent quest.

I promise to always be true
in whatever we may pursue,
whether it be building careers
or exploring some new frontiers.

My mission is to make you happy
as we wend our way through the years.
I hope that is not too sappy.

Is you is, or is you ain't
gonna be my loving mate,
or do I have to dispatch
my trusty hit man Cupid
in his soiled diaper
to spark romantic antics
with his medicated dart?

All this clutter in my brain,
swarming in on humongous scale,
is about to drive me insane.

Inundated by hordes of hated junk mail,
touting products from used cars to insurance,
my mind feels dazed and abused, making me wail.

The TV plies subliminal transference
of messages to convert fiscal restraint
into rabid cravings without deterrence.

Folks push their way through my phone lines to acquaint
me with credit deals and vacation resort,
devouring my energy until I feel faint.

Computer spam now invites me to cavort
with Oprah for free, at least that's what they say,
while concealing their vile intent to extort.

Besieged by drumming ploys, I can only pray
for relief and escape to some cabaret.
