Lawrence S. Pertillar Poems

Get up you crusty butts!
Those who enjoy aging,
And have given a youthful glow up!
Lift up your arms and slowly spin from left to right!
...

The Earth and Mother Nature...
With the Sun and the Moon,
Together 'and' directed by The Most High...
Almighty Be The Energy.
...

I'm without a nuke to send!
Will it be rumored I have one hidden?
Beneath a chair...
Where I sit in the den?
...

Giving in this season,
Is a reason to forgive.
Letting go to then receive...
A peacefulness that can mend.
...

Slipping from your knot...
A lock I want forgotten.
A hold I seem not to stop,
Until your memory starts...
...

As long as it is believed,
You are the one pegged...
To be used and teased,
By others who see your kindness
...

Is it there or not?
A credibility slips away...
Yet fear continues to be marketed,
Without a hint
...

On the other side of greed,
Where the numb lay lifeless...
And stung in their slumber.
Some choose to sneak a peek,
...

I don't chase...
Play hide-and-seek.
Nor did I quiver,
Upon meeting you!
...

I did not wake up one day
And decided I would be 60 years old.
Each one of those years I earned,
With an observation learned.
...
