McWhirtle: I Write Because
I write because,
the birds cannot,
the trees, the streams,
the mountaintop,
Had they a voice,
sounds will swap, yet,
add with words, be,
cream of the crop.

Aloha also is Goodbye
How do, You do,
(Obama, who?)
Honolulu,
"Gathers," the pro-left best
they stick like cements,
Issues: starved mass,
overcrowdedness;
their gilded penthouse nests
o'er the homeless tents.

Thundering BlunderbussThundering Blunderbuss!
What is a platypus?
Looks like a beaver, but
Has a duck's bill.
Fairly cute little guy,
Ornithorhynchidae*
Lives in Australia, is
On the no-kill.
Semi-aquatic and
Strangely neurotic, it
Lays eggs like birds and has
Venom like snakes.
Weirdly amphibious,
Bio-fluorescent fur
Webbing between the...

Upside Down, Inside OutHummingbird hardly heard,
airily, merrily
extraordinarily
effortless floating, near
weightless transparency,
seemingly without the
slightest of care.
Urgent persistency,
terribly panicky,
frenzied and frantic, she's
burning through energy
rapidly, hungrily;
precise machinery
executes there.
Mallard so lazily,
buoyantly floating on
glassy flat waters, he
glides on the surface, and
wanders unhurriedly,
conveying contentment,
trivial feat.

Didactyl Doe DactylA double dact doe dance:
Six deer in a row prance
Merrily, playfully
Dancing so sweet!
Ungulates ruminate
Chewing the cud is great
And most amazingly,
Didactyl feet!

Right In the EndDeception reception:
Horrified audience,
Receivers believing
Satisfies goal
Gaslighting, creating
Altered reality
Verity lost somewhere
Deep in a hole
David once raged against
All the injustices
Voicing his frustrations
Starting each psalm
Working his anger out
Stanza by stanza, then
Reaching conclusion so
Peaceful and calm
Things are not perfect now
Confusion,...

Cinema poetry
Wagons precarious
Bandits? Hilarious!
Not so gregarious
Shooting at me!
Lightning miss yellow hair
Not too bad, pretty fair
Oregon, here we go
Shooting a buffalo
With Sam, Comanche beau
Bison for free!...

Dactyl McwhirtlePoetry, throw-a-three
Dactyls for you and me
Six silly bulls, I see
All in a field!
Myrtle McWhirtley
This is the life for me
No silly names, I see
Less junk to wield.
Dactylly Practical
Superfantastical
Equally Whimsical
More Flexibly
So dactyls or whirtles?
Just tighten your girdles

Bored GamesThe game of chess
truly bores me
Enough time between moves
for a dip in the sea
There's one more game
that drives me up trees
Time it with a calendar
Its name...

A Moss Covered Stone RestA Moss Covered Stone Rest
Despite my nature
to absolve evil,
Against all the odds,
stood formidable,
Beseech fortitude
of righteous people,
Prevails my true heart
molding life peaceful.

Holiday Love
As winter takes hold
This time of the year
The holidays help
To spread love and cheer
The lamp lights aglow
snow covers the ground
