The girls all gathered for a rare, special treat
Touted as something that couldn’t be beat
Each one brought, her husband or mate
Some of them even brought their last date

Standing in a cornfield, far away from town
The men were getting antsy, starting to frown
They didn’t understand, why they were there
The women kept chattering, they didn’t care

When the men found out, what a surprise!
There was a rocket ship, in front of their eyes
The women urged them, to climb on board
Knowing pretty soon, they’d get their reward

The rocket doors closed, there was no escape
They had tricked the men, who stood, agape
The thrusters fired the ship, clear off the ground
The laughter from the ladies, did clearly abound

Waving goodbye, to those left standing on land
You have to wonder, who had the upper hand…

Colorful Mischief – #poetry #FebruaryWriting

She loves to play with billowy blobs

Quite an artist, though no one will say

What she captures, in painted globs

Is devious, in a most mischievous way

Allowing you to see, only part of her

She can hide the most hideous things

Like the one thing she does, most concur

Is setting traps that make the men sing

She mesmerizes, with a flash of green

Throws colors about, a devil-may-care

Women say, she is simply obscene

But not to her face, they wouldn’t dare

Laughing, as she lures them farther away

She is a siren, from the sea, her realm

She need do nothing to make them stray

When her colors fly about, they overwhelm

Radioactive ~ #poetry #NaPoWriMo #AprilWriting

Platinum rockets outshine the night

Setting on fire, this battle of wills

Radioactive, they tarnish the skies

Feeling nothing, only out for the kill

Men, women, children, die horrible deaths

Tragedy strikes, not so unexpected

War torn and ravished, faraway lands

Unable to fight back, quite unprotected

Peace needs a place, to call its home

An Earthly portal, to welcome all

Three nations together, cannot do it alone

For when evil wins, the mighty will fall

 

My thoughts and prayers go out to the people of Syria, and to the men and women of our armed forces, along side France and Great Britain.  May God watch over them…

George would always get a bit cranky

When the women around were skanky

So he got him some soap

Washed them down, with a grope

Indulging in sheer hanky panky

Aphrodite ~ #poetry #thedailypost

Her power of love weakened the mighty

The Goddess, a beauty was she, Aphrodite

Clothed in silken white, she gleamed

The vision of every human male’s dream

They bowed to her, these men, devoted

Hoping they would soon be noticed

And stand by her side, as her lover, no more

Immortality, is all they ever wished for
