Is It Love

Is it love, or is it lust?
Is it a hurricane, or just a gust?
Is it great passion, or is it a bust?
Will it blow over, like the wind blows dust?

To be secure, find out we must,
If it be love, or if it be lust.
Will it lay on the ground and turn to rust?
Is it pie filling, or just the crust.

A Purple Dragonfly

A purple dragonfly, just caught my eye.
A sharp contrast to the clear blue sky.
He lands on a twig to rest his wings,
Unmindful of danger, and all other things.

As I approach he takes to flight.
Those gossamer wings are a delight.
A purple blur in the twilight gloom,
Up, up, and away, listen to the zoom.

A Long Night Of Love

Sweet kisses like wine,
Upon my face.
From an angel devine,
In Spanish lace.
Fragrant raven tresses,
Caress my face,
My soul confesses,
Into her gaze.
Sparkling green eyes,
Stare into my soul,
No need for replies,
With a woman this bold.
A long night of love,
I'll spend with you.
My precious white dove,
That's what I'll do.

Burrs In My Pants

Burrs in my pants,
Thorns in my shoes.
Fishing this lake,
Just gives me the blues.

The fish are not biting,
And thats a fact.
Maybe it's time,
I headed back.

All that I got,
From my fishing trip.
Were burrs in my pants,
And sunburned lips.

I guess this fishing trip,
Was meant to fail.
When the burrs started sticking,
To my tail.

Hot Days

The hot days are upon us.
Oh how I love the heat.
Cause I'm a darned, old, ornery cus,
Hot weather is a treat.

I love it when it's steamy,
And bodies are dripping sweat.
To me the heat is really dreamy,
The heat is nothing to dread.

The hotter the better,
I wish summer would last all year.
For any endeavor,
For hot weather there's beer.

Pothole In The Road

The car drives through,
Suddenly the front end dips severely,
Dirty water splashes all around,
The car continues forward,
Now the rear end dips down,
The dirty water splashes again,
A continuous parade of vehicles,
Follow suit,
An endless chain of dipping and splashing,
reminds me of a broken record.
Some of the water reaches me,
Time to go.

The Dog And The Cat

The dog and the cat,
Had a little spat.
The cat clawed the dog,
And the dog squealed like a...pig.

The dog bit the cat,
Who was ugly and fat.
And the cat screamed away,
In the middle of the... afternoon.

Then the dog chased the cat,
Up a tree where he sat.
Growling down at the dog,
Who licked his chops on a...stump.

for those that don't get it-hog, day, log.

Happy Sunshine

Happy sunshine on my face,
I love those warming golden rays.
Happy sunshine fills my eye,
When gazing up at the blue sky

Happy sunshine for my soul,
It fills me up with rays of gold.
Happy sunshine for my heart,
Keeps away love's poisoned darts.

Happy sunshine all the time,
Always in this heart of mine.
Happy sunshine dear to me,
Walking on the beach and free.

Neanthe Bella

Neanthe Bella, beautiful dwarf,
Beautiful from birth.
Glorious woman in green.
Fan dancer,
Seductress,
Wild,
Exotic,
Mysterious,
And unique.
Neanthe bella, beautiful dwarf,
Unlike,
All others.
Delicate,
Fragile,
So feminine.
Never aging,
Always,
Shy,
Reserved,
A queen,

One Little Kiss

One little kiss, infinitely sweet,
Is all I'm asking for.
Without that kiss I'll taste defeat,
One little kiss, please I implore.

One little kiss from your red lips,
Sweeter than any wine.
Will have me doing backwards flips,
And tell me that your'e mine.

One little kiss, just on the cheek,
I'm not that brazen yet.
That's all the comfort that I seek,
One little kiss, yes, just like that.
