Hope you will join us Alice! Chatty, your poem was clever.
Chatty's words:
Invisible, noisy, blockbuster, consultant
Talked to my consultant today
Wanted a raise, need more pay.
He said,"sure", and handed me an envelope.
"It's empty!", I said, "You think I’m a dope?!"
It’s invisible, he said, till you work harder,
Make a blockbuster sale, like a winner, not a martyr!
I pushed my chair back, and yelled. " No way!!"
"Not so noisy", he said, "you know what they say;..."
"I'm not cheap, but I am on special this week!"
And out the door went my big boss creep.
New words:
analysis,technician,sputter, grin

analysis,technician,sputter, grin
My computer sputters
I groan and mutter
"Almighty Technician,
please come to my aid."
The green light flashes
the Window screen splashes
I cheer with a grin
"Lord, You've done it again!"
You can say it's not His thing
to care about some things
but He's shown me clearly
that everything's His thing
So after analysis
of so many crises
I have to give credit
where credit is due.
To the Master Technician,
there's no such thing as nothing.

A poem targeting Alice's word, exquisite.
When I focus on the word exquisite,
Excellence becomes so explicit.
Look around, what do you see,
More excellently made,
Then you and me.
Consider, a moment, if you will,
World population, it'll bring a chill,
Physical appearances with tons of variations,
Voices, personalities, traits, habits,
Intelligence, mannerisms, what diversification.
Few chattels are flawless,
'n interestingly explored,
Nothing captures attention,
quicker or more,
Then life itself,
So exquisitely done,
By God The Father, Holy Spirit,
And God The Son!

Loved your poems Eagle and jabber. You two knock me out with your cleverness.
They threw paint all over his masterpiece
which was nothing more than a dasterdly deed.
It shows them up for their lack of personality,
they are lowly creatures, unkind and suffer a propensity.
Inside their bones runs black oil for marrow,
Their skin pocked and ugly, their heads empty and narrow.
If they had any ambition they might be a wanderer,
but instead they do mischief, destroy things and are squanders.
What to do with these hooligans only a mother could love,
take them to the rooftop and give them a gentle shove, oops!
WORDS: comic, romance, scarecrow, kindergarden

Chatty,
Your poem tickled me, loved it. I enjoy creativity that makes me
smile!
Words: comic, romance, scarecrow, kindergarden
As I recall that kindergarden year,
I think of my first boyfriend,
And how he called me dear.
I loved the fall, with Halloween and all,
And seein' a scarecrow, in the cornfields so tall.
Romance hadn't yet, complicated my life,
Teacher was a comic 'n classmates were nice.
Time has since, weighed me with strife,
And you know the responsibilities that
saddle a wife.
Guess I'll join a laughing club,
And giggle all day,
'til tensions grow numb,
Or I can say, "what the hey...
pass some rum and let's all play."
New words: laughing, cow, holy, please

Current words: laughing, cow, holy, please
Cheese happens to be a weakness of mine,
And that laughing cow cheese, 'tis ever so fine.
But then again, it isn't on par,
With my other favorite thing,
a chocolate candy bar.
And holy cats, I even know folks,
Who think cheese from a goat,
is better than both.
But if they offer me some of that,
'stead of please I say, "No thanks,"
with the speed of light or quick as a bat.
Then I flee, as though I can fly,
'n sometimes forget to say good-bye.
New words: medicine, digest, popular, occasions
