You are planning a new dalliance

But let me give you some advice,

although it may seem like salience

and at the time it feels quite nice.

But it leaves you feeling rather flat

I’m trying not to be dogmatic,

I just don’t want you feeling like that,

With your love-life remaining static.

Why not try for a longer romance

Something poignant, then you might see

If you give this caring guy a chance,

A completely new side of me.

A Parcel of Truth

A parcel can be a mysterious thing,
all wrapped up and tied with string,
but once it’s opened and laid bare,
the suspense has gone, no longer there.
Shouldn’t we be like that parcel instead?
After all, a still tongue does keep a wise one’s head.

An Ode to the Bald – A Terrible Poem

This poem was written for Chelsea Owens Final Terrible Poetry Competition, Click on the link to take part:

The Final Weekly Terrible Poetry Contest

An Ode to the Bald

Oh, Woe is me, Alas and Alack
Oh how I wish I could have my hair back
Now my poor head is shiny and bald
My comb is redundant, my crown feels the cold
It’s the one thing for which I would pray, steal or beg,
If I could no longer be as bald as an egg.
