Planting life seeds
Takes time to grow
Will they succeed?
Takes time to know

Today I learned some
Fashion sense about –
The five types of bums –
And the underwear
That best cover them

Sun burned and pure –
Dirty and clean –

One Stanza Poem O174
I posted a nude selfie –
With me giving the finger –
But with my face all covered –
In many symbolic ways –
That was how I dealt with my
Employer’s stupid request –
To censor myself online!

One Stanza Poem O166
You wanted me to be –
A star in your night sky –
But I wanted to be –
Your whole, glorious sky –
For day as well as night –
And not just for the night

One Stanza Poem O163
Pleaded guilty to drawing
The figure I wished to see –
Not the one in front of me –
And making her look better –
A nice but misleading sketch –
Am I good at the former?
Or just bad at the latter?

The world’s great artists –
They all have a muse –
I will soon get mine –
Will that make me great?
We’ll find out in time
