heavenly father
why are people scared of you
asked the little girl
I'm getting goose bumps...
This really confuses me,
Cuz I’m not a goose.
Triumphant killer
Reads the morning newspaper
Sipping his coffee
Blinded by the Sun
Palms trace the rings of Saturn
Toes graze Jupiter
Clawing Mars with my fingers
Sparks are to be seen from Earth

Those pretty little words
Tickle my finger tips as I write
Invade my thoughts as I think
Dance upon my tongue as I speak
Warm my heart as it beats.
Those pretty little words
Make sense where sense was not before.
It would be so easy to give those three little
Words wings.
Those pretty little words
Can hurt so deeply as well
So I will wait for the
Perfect time to tell
You I love
You

I am a cereal killer
Devouring Life is a thriller

Snap, crackle, and pop
I make the flakes drop

Stalking salubrious crunch
Murdered for breakfast and lunch

My appetite for Trix is voracious
For my Lucky Charms, I am gracious

Mud & Bugs haunt my soul
Desecrating Grape-Nuts whole

Yea, I'm Nut n' Honey and Cocoa Hoots
Krispy Kritter Krave Fruit Loops

I'm a cereal killer
Yet a community pillar

Can't comprehend why it's a crime
Unrepentant, I'll massacre cereal every time
I asked my son what I should write about. He said cereal killer, so this is what he got. I never understood why it's a crime. Haha The words in capitals are names of cereal, as if you didn't know. Thanks for reading my silly poem!

I've loved you in secret
since those first
unspoken
words

Amazing how poetry can do this

If I was granted just one wish,
for how we'd spend our lives,
I'd have to give it so much thought,
till perfect plans arrive.

We could be lovers on the wing,
soaring through the air,
but I think flight is overrated,
there's lots more we could share.

We could be swingers in the trees,
laughing with the chimps.
I'm sure we'd be entertained,
but there's so much more to glimpse.

We could see the great savannah,
stampeding cross the plains,
being one with mother nature,
but I'm sure we'd be drained.

I think we're more like little otters,
splashing playfully.
Holding hands we rock to sleep,
we'll never drift at sea.
I always wanted to
  Marry, merry Mary.
  But knew not how to propose.

And so I went to fetch her flowers
  Rows of roses rose
  before me, presenting many choices but producing a tear.

My sorrow was broken by a
  Sheer, cheer, chear,
  my friends wishing my love to ignite

Be not discouraged, your love is a
  lite, light. Alighted
  by the tender flame your heart abates.

And Mary loves you, despite her long
  way and weighty wait
  She knows you're worth it and why

So put on your best suit and
  tie that Thai  tie  
  of azure that matches your eyes

That's Mary's favorite, said
  I, aye, eye
  And she's sure to say yes, yes, yes

  to such a fool in love

I cannot swear I love you
as the roses love the rain
but I can promise you darling
I'll never cause you pain

I cannot swear I love you
as the night sky loves the moon
but I can promise you darling
I'll leave you no time soon

I cannot swear I love you
as the mountains love the snow
but I can promise you darling
that I'll never let you go

I cannot swear I love you
as the ocean loves the shore
but I can promise you darling
all these things and thousands more
