To cement a relationship's hard;
A big challenge, and that's no canard.
Issues shouldn't be ducked,
Else you might self-destruct.
(Then again, I am naught but a bard.)

Yet another night's sleep wrecked by noise!
How I loathe those loud motorized toys:
Roaring bikes, mowers, drills,
Power leaf blowers -- Ills
That invade with a sound that destroys.

You have told me to write a short verse;
An #acrostic, which makes matters worse.
Waking up to this task
Not refreshed, I must ask:
Stop sadistic demands. They're a curse!

Oh the sound of the oboe is great,
But the #reed making makes me irate.
Often reeds that seem fine
End up trashed. (Most of mine!)
So I envy the flute player’s fate.

"Put that down!" said the man to his wife.
"Knives are weapons! A threat to my life!"
"Calm your jets, my dear Dennis,"
She said. "It's no menace:
It's dull cuz you wrecked my fav knife."

Precious freedom, alas, is at stake!
Dire jeopardy! Each day we wake
To more headlines that scare us,
As Trump seems to dare us
To dodge each malevolent #quake.

This week’s #poetryprompt from my kidlit Rhyme Time group:

Write something with LOTS of onomatopoeia--
or focus on a specific type of sound (i.e., the sounds of water)

The political scene's made me weary,
And the onslaught of news makes me bleary.
As election day nears,
My tense mental state veers
Between guardedly hopeful and leery.

Oct. 7 is #BathtubDay!

When it’s time to get clean, we can choose
Either shower or #bathtub — I’ll use
A hot shower each time
Cuz I hate soapy slime,
And in tubs the slime clings like tattoos.

There once was a kid with bad dreams Who in nightmares had pants split their seams But when they transitioned Their fears repositioned And now missing tops cause the screams.

Said a starry-eyed, non-boating male
To his wife, "Sammy's sailboat's for sale.
I must buy it! It's cheap!"
Her response was to weep
And reply "Better learn how to bail."

"My poor neighbor's not much of a saver,
So I did her a favor and gave 'er
Some financial advice.
Her reply was 'No dice!
I shall buy what I savor. Won't waver!'"

The traveler Jack carries? A #Hurricane
Bringing hangovers and headache pain
That red Solo cup
Will mess him right up
But it's Mardi Gras! There he goes again...

Jack stalked a huge fish 'cross the #harbor
As it hid in the shade of an arbor
Out of lead for his #lure
He cut short his coiffure
Now he won't have to pay for a barber
