JUBILEE Adieu to parent Farewell to youth As liege is made and Princess makes Queen Nations heed the Head No longer Empire armed in Dread Collect of peoples, Collect of old Commonwealth of nations told Tradition in peers and powers old Granted Reign,People Rule Averting decree, Assent anew This fair Elizabeth like the Golden Age Tho Deuxieme in very name The Inspiration is the same As constant as Thames, her kingdom fair Adorns the Adorned, a model Queen Tradition breathes as country air The Kingdom known as well as seen For sixty years her country's monarch, Her life with theirs a Royal bridge The times in passing as they fade Give Elizabeth a gilded glade Of history's sun, a bright moment In human times of which she wrent In celebration of the Reina, As too the reign Long Live! |

Thanksgiving Greeting Gorgeous Bird ... man of word We're having turkey dinner As you have heard it is THE bird More food! We won't be thinner! Some for hare, some don't care Its THANKS and just for having. Without the meal without a deal Our lives and friends do dimmer In Diversity in friend anew In gathering mill together, One day with time, in every clime To join and return favor. A giving thanks ... a saving thanks Which words and thought may pray To simply pause by love or laws To Thanks ... for all our days. - - - |

Halloween & UNICEF
HALLOWEEN is Coming TRICK or TREAT for UNICEF H A L L O W E E N I thought I saw a goblin on Main Street yesterday ... Then there were vampires, and spooks, and jack-o-lanterns. Windows ran with cotton candy; really cobwebs they say! Bats flew, blackening doorways and curtains. Cats in turn Were arched in back; spitting; snarling; ... all black of course! Sundown was coming, and the moon rose in full amber, Catching a witch, astride a broom, shreiking "No remorse!" ... For all in sight and sound! (Who could not clearly, Stay ... safely, in or out of ghostly evil-doers way.) Some in "extortion", called a "treat"; paid at the doors. Your's or mine ... made no difference; save the "trick" Did not then occur ... UNICEF? anyone? A nice treat for sure. Better than candy for one without bread, or sick In childhood poverty ... or unable to gamble That in a nation of prosperity; a goblin dressed ramble; Would fill a bag with sweets or some goods that were handy. Lest their little ones now in the street; extort like "jackboots" In some self-centered turn. Please collect for some other time! When, where life wasn't good; or was something seen in dread. Make a basket; fill a sack; get a kid out of his shed! It's for good; it's for the best! Trick or Treat for UNICEF! And if these seasonal poems one might dread ... Well, the day or so after Halloween's the Day of the Dead! With Halloween (October 31), coming; and "Guy Fawkes Day" (Novemer 4), too ... those efforts for candy & treats, and "pennies for the Guy"; can also make some difference for the United Nations Childrens' Emergency Fund ... tap the link for UNICEF, please!

Interruption
Please excuse the Interruption; I just had to push the button. Google glows as Blogger grows If I wish to avert adoption; I just had to choose new options. Google gives new browsers pains; but the dashboard's supposed to gain; Time and book for Google members; Its really better than the embers. |

A no-Pebble Beach Limerick
A no-Pebble Beach Limerick
The beach was all sand not a pebble The golfing was just for the able My clubs bore the scars Of 19th hole bars And my aim was as fluent as Babel. - - - Honestly so inspired by the famous AT&T Pebble Beach Classic -that I would attibute it to my pen in wondrous consonance of mind with many golfers. (Though no one seemed anxious to answer the challenge of a starting verse.) |
