Please Post Your Plentiful, Pleasant Poetry :)

[Groucho Marxist]

I'll get the ball rolling with a short poem I wrote about gambling :)

Aces, queens
Kings and jack
Hearts and spades
Red and black

Five card draw
Player trades;
Two of diamonds,
Three of spades

Move those chips
Across the table,
But only bet
If you are able

All players in
Will show their hands
Two shall fold, but
“Dealer stands”

Above all the noise
The man will shout,
"Play again?"
"Deal me out"

Love

When I look in your eyes my heart aches,
When I see you smile my heart skips a beat,
When your fingers touch mine my heart is aflame,
When you laugh my heart leaps for joy,
When I hear your voice my heart longs for more,
When you leave there's a void in my heart.

[Floppyjoe]

The Watchman

Your eyes are playful and your voice is sweet,
The God of heaven you will not meet,
Your choice is made you will be free,
but down that path lies misery,
I tried my best to make Him known,
the choice you made it is your own,
And when the Maker you finally see,
He will turn to look at me,
I must hang my head in shame,
and accept the Masters fiery blame,
You are the watchman he will say,
I heard you blow the horn that day,
And when His gaze returns to you,
What will you say? What will you do?


Ezekiel 3:17-21
Ezekiel 33:2-9
Matthew 10:34

The Sword has come. What will you do?
Luke 12:51

Its a haiku in case you don't know.

[JillSwift]

A Haiku (not the OS) inspired by every cat I've ever owned:

Oh, do pat me there!
Yes, above my tail! Behold!
Elevator butt.

That's quite alright with me :) Thanks for posting that.

Here's a parody of "Over There" I wrote back in 2008 for the US Presidential elections.
As a gag for a friend of mine, I thought Stephen needed an official campaign song, so I wrote the following parody.

(Original lyrics to "Over There" Written and copyright to George M. Cohan)

Come quick, everyone
Everyone, everyone
You can all have fun
All have fun, all have fun
Hear him saying, "Spread that bliss!"
"Help me spread my truthiness!"
America is great
Don't be late, vote '08
Won't you feel just grand?
When you give US a hand?
Tell your friends that you just heard
Stephen say, "Go spread the Wørd"
(Chorus sung twice)

Come quick, everyone
Everyone, everyone
You can do your part
From the heart at the start
See that eagle in the sky
Watch now, as Colbert will cry
See him smartly dressed
He's not stressed, I'm impressed
Eat AmeriCone
When with friends or alone
He's America, it's true;
Buy his book, so you can too!
(Chorus sung twice)

Chorus:
Vote Colbert! Vote Colbert!
Tell the world, tell the world that you care-
So, just keep on voting
Yes, keep on voting
Just keep on gloating
For Colbert
So prepare, punch a bear
Tell the world, tell the world with some flair
And he'll be grinning, yes, he'll be grinning
Freedom will triumph if we all would
Vote Colbert!

I'm disappointed, neither haiku said here includes a season. :(
