Brevity Poems

(Collection of Brevity Poems, 50 words or less) Fall (24 Words) Random vibrations Branches stand still Autumn’s frailty Shaking in the wind Warmer hues presented As air outside chills Branches emptying Solemnly to the ground You Are Not the Father (38 words) Prince Charming thought he’d met his mate But to start the family, he was too late Encapsulated in the woods A few of the dwarves tested out her goods Now knowing kid’s paternity She was impregnated by sleepy OCD About My Keys (54 Words) I know I just put them in my pocket But still I have to check I can’t shut the car door without a pat Or else I’ll be a wreck It’s called obsessive It’s called compulsive But safety must come first You would too If you saw the clues If the situation was reversed Witness Stand (30 Words) Sweat collecting on my brow Keeping calm as mind allows Words that slip from devil’s tongue Breath escapes my frightened lung Answer twisted in the air Powerless, I only stare Green Fairy (26 Words) Green and translucent Filled with mystery Enjoyed by the opulent Throughout our history It’s distilled with 3 herbs Including wormwood Negative ad campaigns Made it misunderstood Time to Move on (30 words) Rose colored glasses Long since faded Constant negativity From the jaded Seek a thousand answers Find but one or two A light switch in the dark And finally I knew Near Miss (32 words) Dysfunctional radar Causing concern Aircraft above Point of no return Closing in Fast Collision in sight Quickly maneuver Nerve wrecking flight Almost disaster But was averted From bad to good Situation converted Foolish (35 words) If you argue with a fool All you do is prove there's two Quickly brought down to their level Beliefs on a carousel If you think there is a winner You remain the bigger fool Puzzle (15 words) Starting from the outside border Pieces from chaos to order Image of a past explorer Painting (20 words) As colors glide on fresh canvas Emotions pour from fingertips My mind's imagination racing A story told without my lips... Cat and Mouse (8 words) Joyous escape, Taunting rivals. Frustrated predator, Foiled again. Pareidolia (8 Words) Clouds speak thoughts, Past Memories, Forever remembered, Within. They didn't leave (24 words) “You’re leafy” she said I stared back confused. She points to the ground She was amused A mass of leaves hitchhiked On my shoes
