Who Are We?

We have teeth and claws and deadly jaws,
We snap at any chance
To savor flavor ever sweet
And taste of life's romance.

We stomp about and scream and shout
But will take time to listen.
For seeking words in thunderous herds
Any treasure trove will glisten.

Ask us who are we, you see
Well, that just gets us going.
Ideas come and go, you know
Deep oceans, over flowing.

We sit and smile and think a while
Through waves of perspiration,
For the perfect story of hope and glory,
We wait for inspiration.

So who are we who claim to be
The lovers and the fighters?
Can only be one group I know,
It must be Georgia Writers!

Will an...

Elephant Wear

Cold underwear?
Perhaps in Africa
When the air is sweaty
Full of hot air
Calvin Kleins to be debonair
Victoria's Secret
If it's a she and she is awfully pretty
In shades of pink...cerise
Lavender
Passionate purple
Am reminded of
Aunt Julia's elegant bloomers
Purplish pink with little blue flowers
She wore them in her wedding bower
Poor Uncle Howard was speechless
The rest of his life
A smile on his face
The rest of his life
Will an elephant wear
Cold underwear
Of course
And he'd look pretty nifty
Posing almost bare
Witho no one to compare
With his elegant derriere.
