Poems to Share

Do you ever question if you had the right words to say

Ever wish you could take back words said yesterday

Maybe to redo a message to deliver loud and clear

No maybe when you say, glad you are well and here

Maybe you want to share words when there are none.

No maybe when you offer praise and say job well done.

Maybe the meaning of your words just came out wrong.

Maybe the tone of your voice with words was too strong.

The right words can keep everyone on the right track.

The wrong words spoken, you can never take back.

Do you notice that when you use the facility

Doing what is a total normal body necessity

The TP you use can really be on the skimpy side.

One ply TP roll may be one you really want to hide.

The one ply question is do you need one wipe or two.

Without question, you will do what you have to do.

No doubt with two ply TP, what everyone should know.

Your tush is treated so much better when you have to go.

Wipe the cheeks and definitely everywhere in between.

Now you know that with 2 ply you will come away clean.

Getting it right, that should be the goal

Done right, success can touch the soul

Sometimes, success is getting the lucky breaks.

Getting it right, can be learning from past mistakes

Sometimes, it’s just believing that you can

Believe and then go execute the game plan

You may be inspired by what you read

Getting it right may have you in the lead

The future for all may be ever so bright

When you inspire others to get it right.

Prepare a tasty pot roast and its dinner

Poker pot, holding aces, maybe a winner

Smoke pot, who knows what you will forget.

Stir the pot, and who knows what you will get

With potluck and pot of gold you can really score

That potbelly might not even let you through the door

Fresh coffee pot, there’s a cup of joe for me to pour.

There’s always a crackpot that we all should ignore.

Growing pot, pot stickers and always, chicken pot pie.

And for nasty colds, there’s the Neti pot for you to try.

When it comes to pot, we sure have written a lot.

Hence our new title above, spotlight on pot.

You can ignore many of the rules

You can stop dealing with fools.

You know when you are pretending to be smart.

You know how to pretend it is someone else’s fart.

You should know how to shut up and not say a word.

You will know when your advice will never be heard.

There will be memories locked away with no sweat.

There will be names and faces you will easily forget.

Being old, respect is still something you have to earn

Always remember, that you are never too old to learn.

On the field, pop up, fly out or base hit

Everyone waits for the umpire to call it.

Runner on the go, stolen base or thrown out

Is he safe or out, the replay will leave no doubt.

A home run or a great catch right at the wall.

Skill and luck help where you finish in the fall.

On the line, base hit with only a check swing.

Don’t all players dream of a World Series ring.

So every day, suit up and play the game.

Play it well, and the next stop, Hall of Fame.
