Skeletons in the Closet

“If you cannot get rid of the family skeleton,
you may as well make it dance”
George Bernard Shaw

Skeletons in the Closet

I found some skeletons, deep in my closet
I don’t know how they got there, possibly it was a good idea as a deposit
Now, I know this house is old, drafty and has leaky faucets
Yes, and it has caused quite the dent in my wallet

But as you can probably surmise
And imagine my total surprise
When these bones from the past
Out from their hiding splashed

So now, I am sitting on the floor
Carefully watching the door
Hoping to get these bones ridden
To a place safe, secret, away hidden

Unfortunately, at this day and age, I don’t have a time portal
Which could aide me to turn back time and make all normal
Make past things right, to not to run away from the fights
But, now I can only try to hide, that which I once let slide

People in glass houses, should not throw bones
Keep off your microphones and telephones in your own homes
You can never be too sure or safe
So just remember to lock your secrets in a very safe place

“Solitary trees, if they grow at all, grow strong”
Winston Churchill

Solitary

One solitary flower
Still had the power
To grow
Against the odds
Between a rock
And the hard place

Solitary

Sitting pretty
Feeling gritty
In the middle of the city
The tiny yellow flower
That could

“Solitary trees, if they grow at all, grow strong”
Winston Churchill

Solitary

A solitary sun
Lighting up the blue sky
A solitary tree
Growing in the back yard
A solitary leaf
Turning green
With the other solitary leaves

I intend to land and see what can be found in the neighborhood”
Christopher Columbus

Neighbourhood

Stacked

Neatly, bundled together
Protected, from any weather
From January to December
Different, but similar
Just like, birds of a feather

Vintage

They call me vintage
They call me old school
My condition may not be minted
But my owner considers me a jewel

Three

Just the three of us
Causing no fuss
Hanging together
To each other tethered
Yellow, with a touch of white
Pretty, in sunshine’s bright

Branching Out

With the warmth they will sprout
Growing their tentacled snouts
It is the time,
The time, for branching out

Sign of the Times

It was the sign, of the times
Peeing, surely a major crime
Just be careful, while lifting that leg
You may be fined

Long Journey

The longest journey,
Starts, with a single step…
But the caterpillar, is not in a hurry
Taking its time in the human web
