Being sticky

Lasting on earth

In vibrant resilience

Fosters a spirit of

Eternal brilliance.

On sending a child off into the world

Such an

Emotional event

Presents

An opportunity to

Re-evaluate

And

Test one’s individual

Identity. At least, this

Offers a distraction from the

Natural, worry-ridden reaction.

Goodness!

Magnanimity’s

Empathic

Response

Can grant 

You a chance for renaissance.

Thank you, Eric A.

Fourthful

In  

Nationalistic fervor we hereby

Declare ourselves

Emancipated from the

Powers of

English governance.

No more will our

Daughters and sons

Endure the

Name of British

Citizen. We

Er Amerkins!

Reflections on perception

Light, like life, is

Universally

Mischievous, or

Is it our minds playing

Need versus desire? By

Our own inner brightness, our

Unique energy, we can endeavor to

See through the mire.

Thank you, Linda T.

See Alice for details...

Principally known as Rogerio

In towns all over, the rascally

Cad left many

A broken heart in his wake; he

Repeated his antics until he was

Old, that sly, wicked rake.

Thank you, Greg T.

Does it boil down to a misprint somewhere?

Tea parties and

Royal taxes aside, we

Americans will name our own

Plane shapes with two opposite sides

Evenly spaced.

Zounds! Mr. Hutton, you scholar

Of Math, “sometimes”

Is shaky; we may be us, but we are not

Daft.

Thank you, Claudia O.
