journey, life,
Travelling through life resembles an arc
We start out as a child emerging from the dark
To reach a crescendo
Establishing a tempo
Then sadly we all must eventually disembark

nonsense,
The journey began in Kigali,
but came to an end at Denali:
it started off Rocky,
but downed with some Sake,
grilled moose makes the perfect tamale.

allegory, funny, journey,
Obsessive workers in their seat
Anal about documents neat
Choose never to rush
Or the toilet to flush
Unless the paperwork's complete

dark, death, depression, happy, journey, spring, write,
To die before you die is worse then death itself.
Time doesn’t stop as you are sprung backwards.
Now you have to climb forward
Desperately yearning to revert to your normal self.
Desperately wanting something to spring you back to where you were, happy.

journey, life, love, marriage,
The exchange of vows begins the Journey
love, patience and trust, the needed money
to make every meal
and open every seal
one where bitter leaf spices much honey

On my bike, fifteen gears by derailleur
I set off on my trip round Australia
But the weather was hot
Blisters grew on my bot
So the journey became quite a failure

life,
born in Stuttgart Germany
that was the start of my journey
with many years of stuttering
today just poems I bring
I’m always doing rhyming
life never a agony

I'm just a typical working bloke
Who went to court for taking a toke
My brief, my attorney
And my financial journey
I lost now I'm totally broke

adventure, imagination, life, mystery,
Like a castaway on the cosmic sea,
life has been a mystery to me
what can I do now, or say,
but think of my yesterdays,
now my soul, and spirit will be free

fun,
So what single thing makes our writes so charming
If I knew, I'd be driving a Ferrari instead of this jalopy I'm parking
It's intangible they say
Choosing words to convey
Every day a new journey through life we're embarking

journey,
We are all suspended between heaven and hell
Which way are we headed only time will tell
If I were to guess
Should be scantily dressed
In case you're sweltering at the Devil's Motel

culture, death, endurance, funeral, horse, journey, memorial,
Boot Hill is filled with remorse
From folks who could not stay the course
But a lot could be worse
Than a ride in an hearse
For a cowboy who ain't got no horse!

Great White Sharks are a Gold Coast wonder
Though crocodiles may steal their thunder
But all surfers know
It is time to go
When kangaroos line up Down Under

Do you know a fellow named Bernie
Who was indicted by our Grand Jury
The Ponzie scheme that he played
And all those people he flayed
He is now on a long Prison Journey

food,
Whilst the doctors discussed her fate
Her belly inflated with hate
Flat out on a gurney
For one final journey
From hospital food that she ate

journey, spoken word, star, success,
One step to another, high is the rank
in a constant supply full is the tank
riding success’ bike
blessing on a hike
scent of my perfume spreads in every bank.

Going to the mailbox with Ambien dreams
A sleep walking journey or so it seems
Neighbor took only one glance
Laughed, "You're not wearing no pants"
Awakened by my wife's horrid screams

In Paris, was caught in the rain,
and it caused me considerable pain;
sidestepping a well,
in the river I fell -
they pronounced me completely in Seine

happiness,
Oh to be young and just starting my journey
Ahead of the game, things all bright and pearly
What could go wrong
We just sang life's song
Cajoling young girlies to join my journey

dream,
Had a crappy day, no rhyme or reason
Same stuff as previous but today was uneven
A real bumpy journey
It started very early
As I peed on the dog and dreamed of a threesome

death, humorous,
There was once an old geezer named Bernie,
Who was nearing the end of life's journey.
With a raspy voice he cried,
"Life's been one helluva ride!"
As he was whisked away on a gurney!

Soon be approaching the end of the line
Been a fabulous ride, this journey of mine
Too short I must say
Still wanna play
But the choice ain't mine, in this grand old design

Teenage girls to the age of 18
Are renown as juicy and lean
Then Old Father Time
Commits an hate crime
Making them fat, wrinkled, and mean!

Once there was a farmer
Who rode to the pub on a llama
He said "In Peru
It's the thing to do
Isn't she a charmer?"
