The Turkey shot out of the Oven

The turkey shot out of the oven
and rocketed into the air,
it knocked every plate off the table
and partly demolished a chair.

It ricocheted into a corner
and burst with a deafening boom,
then splattered all over the kitchen,
completely obscuring the room.

It stuck to the walls and the windows,
it totally coated the floor,
there was turkey attached to the ceiling,
where there'd never been turkey before.

It blanketed every appliance,
it smeared every saucer and bowl,
there wasn't a way I could stop it,
that turkey was out of control.

I scraped and I scrubbed with displeasure,
and thought with chagrin as I mopped,
that I'd never again stuff a turkey
with popcorn that hadn't been popped

“My Cat.”

“My cat leaps around the garden fence
Pouncing on anything that moves
There’s no defence
Sleeps for hours and sometimes days
Bathing in the summer rays
Hibernating in the winter cold
Prowling, howelling meowing so bold
My cat is quick, sleek, reactions unique
If I ever return as a bird or a mouse then I am going to leave my house
When I am due to travel away my cat sulks for days
Moody before and then turns his back as I return to the door
Feeding him food from a tin
Is considered by my feline friend a cardinal sin
He sits and looks at me in disgust
This is not what I want for my breakfast.
“Give me lean chicken, salmon or fresh beluga
Or I’ll slash the side of your chair like Freddy Kruger
My claws are sharp I will reduce your coat
To the texture and look of an old Nanny goat
I go to sit in my favourite chair
In front of the fire and guess whose there!
Asleep in my bed I awake with surprise
As a purring nose pokes me straight in the eyes!
I now understand the word perfection
Is all about my cats affection
Even when he wreaks the place I live
A look from those saucer green eyes makes me forget and forgive.
My cat has a spiritual link, a supernatural perception
Something that humans have no connection
I can only watch look and admire all of that
Oh…I forgot to mention.
My cat is
An
Acrobat.”

FRIENDS

Friends answer your needs before their own.
You come to them with your hunger,
And they satisfy you with peace.
That's how friends are.
Friends let you speak your mind,
Without worrying what their thoughts will be.
Friends know when you are silent,
They need to listen your heart.
Friends share the joy and the pain.
They know about desire and rejection.
Friends allow you to be who you are,
Without expectations of who you should be.
Friends don't come with a purpose,
They don't come with a plan.
They come to enlighten your spirit,
They come to brighten your heart.
They come to give you a hand when needed
And expect nothing in return.
It is the little things that friends do.
Like fill your heart with pleasure, hope and joy.
AAHH... The Sweetness Of Friendsip
There can be no price placed on Friendship
It has once been told.
For Friendships are worth far more than gold.

Have a nice day.....happy birthday...lots of love, Desi.

START WITH YOURSELF

When I was young and free and my imagination had no limits, I dreamed of changing the world. As I grew older and wiser, I discovered the world would not change, so I shortened my sights somewhat and decided to change only my country.

But, it too, seemed immovable.

As I grew into my twilight years, in one last desperate attempt, I settled for changing only my family, those closest to me, but alas, they would have none of it.

And now as I lie on my deathbed, I suddenly realize: If I had only changed my self first, then by example I would have changed my family.

From their inspiration and encouragement, I would then have been able to better my country and, who knows, I may have even changed the world.

LESSONS IN LIFE


There was a man who had four sons. He wanted his sons to learn not to judge things too quickly. So he sent them each on a quest, in turn, to go and look at a pear tree that was a great distance away.
The first son went in the winter, the second in the spring, the third in summer, and the youngest son in the fall.
When they had all gone and come back, he called them together to describe what they had seen.
The first son said that the tree was ugly, bent, and twisted. The second son said no it was covered with green buds and full of promise.
The third son disagreed; he said it was laden with blossoms that smelled so sweet and looked so beautiful, it was the most graceful thing he had ever seen.
The last son disagreed with all of them; he said it was ripe and drooping with fruit, full of life and fulfillment.
The man then explained to his sons that they were all right, because they had each seen but only one season in the tree's life.
He told them that you cannot judge a tree, or a person, by only one season, and that the essence of who they are and the pleasure, joy, and love that come from that life can only be measured at the end, when all the seasons are up.
If you give up when it's winter, you will miss the promise of your spring, the beauty of your summer, fulfillment of your fall.

MORAL:
Don't let the pain of one season destroy the joy of all the rest.
Don't judge life by one difficult season.

Aw, you guys are so nice and thoughtful. I want to share some words that I've found to be inspiring:
You are not here merely to make a living. You are here in order to enable the world to live more amply, with greater vision, with a finer spirit of hope and achievement. You are here to enrich the world, and you impoverish yourself if you forget that errand." -- Woodrow Wilson.
Have a great weekend as well!
