What I Know About Women – Monorhyme Poetry Challenge

What I Know About Women…I Learned From You…all the women I have been lucky enough to know

Back when I was immature (last week)
And had urges to suppress,
I wanted to be a ladies man
And at times I would obsess.

Stand and gaze
Mountain haze

Silent Love in Distant Places

Monorhyme

Deep within and hid from faces
Drawing on the Father’s graces

Saying Goodbye (Poetry Challenge- Monorhyme)

Saying goodbye is never easy,

Tears in eyes, heart heavy,

Overwhelmed mind, gushing memories,

of days gone by, in a jiffy,

If only you’d say, I’m not ready…

Deliver me from Maggido Via Maris
That I may kneel at the feet of the heiress
Caretaker of the heart of calcified sclerous
She waits for me beneath moon and star on the terrace

Turned up smile, disguises the pout
Calices cover shame and doubt

Legacy of US (Monorhyme Sonnet)

Poetry challenge: Monoryhme.

The legacy of man’s lust for gold
Is one that is countless ages old
Ever since very first wheel rolled
Bridges were built then they were tolled
Creating capitalistic mold
To multiply wealth a hundredfold
Money monopolized and controlled

Balloons from water, of instant pleasure

Buoyant spheres as nimble hearts to measure

Must We ? – Monorhyme Poem

In the beds we made?

While constantly we fail to make the grade;

I went to a park and noticed a bear

A Post Thanksgiving Problem – poetry challenge monorhyme

The Thanksgiving buffet was great,
But I am afraid I took the bait
And went back for plate after plate.
Now after everything I ate,
It’s time for a scale to state
What it’s going to take to abate
My waistline’s increased growth rate.
This isn’t open to debate –
This old man needs to lose weight!

But it sure was fun putting it on!

Drowning (monorhyme challenge)

Living in the land of the shadows
Holding a bow with broken arrows
Shooting at all who God calls hallows
Fell into his bottle of sorrows
Drowning in his fear of tomorrows

When challenged by Harry, our knight
He brings out our words, ever so bright
And we’d go on without ne’er a respite
Throughout the day and into the long night!

Poetry Challenge: Edibles

My stomach can’t keep the pace

with my chomping jaws. Nothing goes to waste

in this household; always the race

to grab the wishbone and crack the case

of beer, not for football but the grace

Memories

Swirl me silvered memories—
Real, or stitched from sparkly fancies.
They carry heart on sunburned breeze
Despite December’s coming freeze—
