Easter Bunny Warning

the Easter Bunny
had a warning
he was tired
of being played the fool

tired of being associated
with low-life
fake Christians
proclaiming that Donald Trump

is the next Messiah
the easter bunny said,

Donald Trump
ain’t no Christian
he ain’t no friend of mine

he is the anti-Christ
the poster child
for the seven deadly sins

Donald Trump denounced
The Easter Bunny

saying on truth social

“the Easter Bunny is nothing
but a thug
a low life wanna be
a real loser,

a communist, Marxist, fascist
radical left-wing vermin thug
part of the woke crowd
that is ruining our once-great country
that needs a Second Amendment remedy.

April 1—Be a fool in a poem!

Sarangpabo – Korean Love Fool for You

When I first saw you
In my dreams.

You were the most beautiful woman
In the world to me
And still are.

When you looked at me
With love blazing
From your dark brown
Goo-goo eyes.

sparks flew from heart-to-heart
(이심초심ishimchomshim)

You hypnotized, mesmerized me
Your love mojo working overtime
Turning me into nothing but
A 사랑 바보 Sarang pabo (love fool).

Eight years later
You walked off that bus
Into my life,

Becoming
 my wife,
My soul mate.

And yes,
I am still
 your 사랑 바보Sarang pabo.

And will remain under
Your love spell
Until the day I die.

April 2—Focus on a leaf or a flower…

Springtime Flowers Blooming Love

Springtime in Korea
walking down the world peace forest
near the international airport in Incheon
with the love of my life by my side.

Enjoying the Flowering Trees
The snowing apple trees, cherry blossoms
pear blossoms. the purple azaleas, the anemone,
the buttercups, the daffodils, the magnolia,
the  scotch bloom, the tulips,
the wildflowers in the field.

the fragrance of love in the air
Life is great.

April 3—Look at the sky!

One day the world woke up
To the impending end
As a new asteroid.

Quickly dubbed
The doomsday asteroid
Headed to Earth.

Everyone looked up
At the doomsday asteroid
As the world scrambled
To send space missiles
To blow it away.

Brazilians, Chinese, the EU, Koreans, Japanese, Iraqis,
Iranians UAE, Israel,. Indians, Pakistanis,  Russians,  Saudis,
South Africans, Russians, and Ukrainians.

50 nations all joined the IPDF.
Including to everyone’s surprise
The elusive enigmatic North Koreans.

All join together under a newly formed.
International Planetary Defense Force
Under the auspices of the UN.

NASA provided the executive leadership
The others all provided parts of the ship,
The software, hardware, and nuclear bombs.

The ship would be unmanned
And was launched worldwide
Interest as everyone watched
Hoping for the best.

The bombs worked
The asteroid was blown away
With some minor Metroid damage

The IPDF vowed to remain ever-vigilant
And fully funded, with a new mission.

Setting up permanent space colonies
In space stations, the moon, Mars,
The moons of Jupiter and Saturn.

Vowing to have them set up by 2030!
Using the latest AI-generated
Research.

The goal to have over 50,000 people
Living and working off the planet.

One of the rare international ventures
That survived the new multi-power
Global great power conflicts.
April 4—Personal grooming…

Ending Daily Shaving in Retirement

When Sam Adams
retired from
 the U.S. Department of State,

he made five vows
which he kept for years.

first, he would quit daily shaving
shaving once or twice a month

second, he would never wear
a suit and tie
instead opting for the northwest look

Long pants, khaki or jeans, T-shirt
and a Western-style shirt
like a Pendleton shirt.

Third, he would retire in Korea
where his wife had family
and Southern Oregon
and an annual trip to DC
where they had rentals.

Fourth, they would travel
a lot every year
seeing as much as the world
as they could while they could still do.

starting with an epic road trip
across the US
10,000 miles 35 states
in three months

and a cruise to Alaska
his last State of 50 to visit
and an annual visit to someplace
warm in the winter.

Fifth, he would start a blog and podcast.
the World According to Cosmos,
to highlight his poetry and short story
submissions and occasional political rants.

He kept his vows
except that COVID blew away
his travel plans from 2019 to 2022!
and he wore a suit once,
to attend the wedding of the son
of his best Korean friend.
April 5—Get a sport into a poem!

Make Baseball Great Again!

It is time
to make American baseball
Great again

starting with creating a worldwide
baseball competition
with each season
with the national champions

competing in a World Cup World Series
with the final round pitting the
North American Champions
against the winners of Africa,
Asian, Europe, and South America
                                   
with the final rounds
best of seven
always held in the U.S.

The other things to do
include rapid expansion plans

including the MLB teams
adopting local schools and colleges
fully funding baseball programs
and only hiring college graduates.
as players.

and making tickets affordable
no more than ten dollars per game!

if they do this,
we can make baseball
once again the best sport
in the U.S.

Let’s all join together                     
to make baseball great again!
