LAUNCHING WORDS, SHIPS, PINK-COLORED SLIPS
–
A face that truly inspires,
Greed and avarice fires…
Dressed up nice
But cold as ice,
Does she care about what transpires?
–
Often idols are kept
Away from those who have wept…
A picture that’s true
Reality, will it do?
For those whose souls have left?
–
Women dressed up and admired,
No control over what transpired….
Men use romance
Justifying advance,
After brutally acquired.
(A different side of the coin, perhaps?)

HARD-TO-HEAR HAIKU
(Adult Topic)
–
Become impotent
His fading manhood laments…
But what is inside?
-JEC
–
Little feeling left,
No place left to vent the ache…
Must thinking change, too?
–JEC
–
Engorgement all gone,
Being faithful accepts lack…
No one left to love.
–JEC
–
How to love without?
Can a man still be a man”’
His woman knows that!
–JEC
–
Appreciates form,
Less likely liquid lusting…
Why keep the old ways?
–JEC
–
Is safer this way…
For all women that he sees,
Much less threatening!
–JEC
Power lust remains,
That…no non-phallic can cure…
Bad apples near tree.

DO YOU THINK I HAVE ENOUGH???
–
Finding room is getting rough,
Do you think I have enough…
One more dream
Fulfilled as schemed,
Engines that run but don’t puff.
–
Can’t run more than two at a time,
Embodying memories sublime…
Reaching the end
Of finances, friend,
Over-spending is a crime.
–Jonathan Caswell
WHY ARE FASHION BLOGGERS SO YOUNG?
–
Young women it seems to me’
Blog fashion plentifully,
Is most fashion sold
Aimed not at the old,
What’s the answer to this mystery?
–
Older models fill the pages
Of magazines for wages…
Is it that the young
Find it more fun,
To model for their own ages?
–
Whatever, I’m glad they are there,
E’en though I don’t have their hair (!)…
New fashions may
Come my wife’s way,
Which shows her that I care!

–Jonathan Caswell
FUR-BRAINED FELINES
You Tube compilations
Of cat concentrations…
Mirrors and jumps
And into bath dumps,
Expose tintinnabulations!
–Jonathan Caswell
TOYING WITH TANKA
Been taken as a fool
A two-hundred dollar school,
Burning with laughter
Their laughter–smiling at me
Smilingly to the bank vault!
–J.E.C.
–
Successful robins
Pulling worms out at their will
Feeding generation
Filling nests of happy broods
Serenading the damp woods!
–J.E.C.
STIR NOT UP LOVE OUT OF ITS TIME!
(Opinion, based upon Song of Songs 2:7)
Song of Solomon two: seven,
Reminding of the right time for heaven…
Out of context
Is frustrating sex,
Add reason to loaves with leaven.
–
Sing and dance while you’re young,
Older folks, more foolishly done…
Appointed seasons
Make good reasons
Accepting you are also-run!
–
Pressure without outlet
Just how stupid we get…
Romance out of time
Invites inner grime
When we are told, “NYET!”.
–Jonathan Caswell
SOME PENTATETTE SUBMISSIONS:
I submitted limericks to THE PENTATETTE** for several years. These are just a few.
It’s raining and snowing together,
The perfect Worcester (Mass.) weather…
But here’s the trick,
It better not stick
With cars driving hell-for-leather!
–J.E.C.
–
Blogging of a starlet’s spiral
Downwardly took off viral…
What is stank,
She laughs to the bank
Not caring her story’s hirel.
–J.E.C.
–
I once had red hair you see,
But grey, black and bald’s left to me…
My prejudice arose
‘Gainst the men I suppose,
Because anger for me was easy!
–J.E.C.
–
In October his Mom died of cancer,
After all this time there’s no answer…
Why he’s not cried
But deep inside
The issue takes more than a glance, sir.
–J.E.C.
–
He once knew a family from Douglas
Whose home was practically bug-less…
They sprayed lots of mist
With chemical fist,
Poisoned the dog and went pugless!
–J.E.C.
**THE PENTATETTE is an on-line and printed newsletter specifically for limericks. See http://www.limericks.org for details.

GREAT GRAVATATIONAL GRAVATAR!
A blogger said I looked too fat,
Now what did she mean by that…
My blogging thumbnail,
Seven years in the pale
Says nothing on how I’m now sat! 🙂
–
Technology challenges real
Prevent more recent reveal…
Film undeveloped
And selfies untaken,
The S.L.R. camera
Takes concentration,
With nothing new
To print I’m in trouble;
If she wants “me” current
I’ll make a plan on the double!
–Jonathan Caswell
RAVISHING REDHEADS
He’s never ravished a redhead
Except with his eyes…
Blonde and brunette were his closest loves,
Avoiding a redhead surprise!
–
Being red himself he feared
An alleged quick anger blow…
He himself had the very same,
As a redhead he should know.
–
His younger days a redhead,
He lost all his red “guard hairs”…
Happily married his brunette–
If anybody cares.
–Jonathan Caswell
