Amuse Poems | Examples

THE GENOCIDE IN GAZA

Oh yeah, promoters of war...
How  long will this mass massacre endure!?
How many more do you want to make 
homeless, starving and struggling to survive 
You can't feed the poor or help the needy,
But you always buy weapons for destruction
Have anything, country, city, place etc. flourish amidst war??

Oh yeah suicide bombers 
How far have you been programmed
To act without thinking or reasoning 
How many more massacre 
Do  you wanna commit 
I'm not saying I'm perfect 
But we all know what is right from wrong 
Does it amuse or benefit you whenever you kill?

Oh yeah weapons manufacturers
How long will you keep manufacturing 
Weapons for selfish desires ?
When we can end war
By making this world a better place 
Like Michael Jackson 
There's a place in your heart, I know it's love.
There's no hurt or sorrow in love not lust
 We're the ones to make this world a better place
 END THE GENOCIDE IN GAZA!!!

MELODY

There's a melody in my heart
A song I'll love to sing
Singing just like Michael Jackson
A song so soothing and rejuvenating
Keep you relax and amuse same time.

I've been wondering 
What happy the heart 
So unfortunately, it's in the little things 
More you get, more you want 
You can't own it or know it all
Just be grateful for what you have 
It gives you melody in your heart.

Expectations ruins the heart
Don't settle for less but the best.
Don't give your power away,
To things or people.
Happiness is powerful,
It gives inspiration to think positively.

No one can amuse these merciless men

They dwell in a far off dry wood,
Browse but on hardy grass no good,
Drink left o’er water in restraint, 
Even then, poor deer do get slain.
Who can amuse men of mean mood?      
______________________
Translation |19.10.2024|men, deer, please

Poet’s note: Sanskrit has thousands of verses of wisdom called Subhashhitam. Here it says: ever scared of men, deer dwell far off in the forest, browse on hardy grass, and drink water left over for them.  Even then they are hunted down by men. Who can please, placate these ruthless men? The transliteration of the Sanskrit verse follows:

Vasanti aranyeshu, charanti doorvaah, 
pibanti toyaan a-parigrahaani |
Tathaa api vadhyaa harinaa naraanaam, 
kah lokam aaraadhayitum samarthah ||

Amuse To Lose

AMUSE TO LOSE

If you see a fat man jiggle
It’s probably a sight that can be amusing
Don’t giggle

When at the gym
Wet skin isn’t his choosing
Get slim

I’ll bet
He’ll be losing
Sweat

If you see a fat man jiggle
Wet skin isn’t his choosing
Sweat

Entertainment

Postman Pat and Fireman Sam,
Ballamory and Desperate Dan,
Thomas the Tank and Winnie the Pooh.

Hours of fun that entertain you.

Bob the Builder and Rolly Mo,
Rosie and Jim as they come and go
Georgie Shrinks and Tigger too.

These are the favourites that entertain you.

Little Red Tractor and Fifi Flower,
Dora the Explorer and the Troll that glowers,
Swiper the Fox and Lions in a zoo.

These are the things that entertain you.

Will Amuse With Proper Shoes

we may have the blues
should stop then we will amuse
choose the proper shoes

read news page by page
when my bright mind may engage
could see cat in cage

constant covenant
good looks appeared prevalent
where ever she went

there had been much trash
we could see in Calabash
things may cost much and cash

saw pretty Persian
scattered in a dispersion
while on an excursion

had been escorted
became badly distorted
will be deported

Amuse

Down Under when one can not sleep
One busies one's self counting sheep
Snooze you lose
Ewes your muse
Aussie poets are now knee-deep

A Muse, To a Muse, To Amuse

Fairly good writing there, Mr. Rose:
In your words on the main post;
Your prose, being the host.

As I read them down, without a doubt;
I came to the comment area, 
To give this shout.

Now, it's come down to this;
The comment I'm leaving you, 
Does it exist!?

That both you and I will today:
Go down in our history;
Putting on a display.

You're the muse, you; 
Write your prose down.

The main posting page: 
A poem;
Your poetic's, I the Crown!

I, being candidly clever,
Thought up this comment play?
It is the muse in me to say, 
In its humorous poetic display.

Amuse Bouche

Nibble 

a few 
       words.

Play with the 
sounds
as you taste 
            them.

An entrée can be 
                heavy
but not so
 a meaningless 
poem

its just amusing and

light.

It gives you 

              space

with no

wordy
      waste.


Nibble, don’t dribble
or the letters

                    will

glug all the way down

the

page.

Amuse

Amuse the muse
Watch rhymes now fuse


Word brief mood craze
Dance in this maze


Amuse and feel
A touch that heals


Word in crisp slots
Can tell a lot


Amuse the squeeze
In cool stray breeze


Truth shows true poise
As touch seeds voice


Amuse and see
The cause of spree


Verse in prompt surge
Now captures urge

Amuse Your Muse

Proud pirate flag, peacock, pumpernickel pie,
Perfumed prairie pinwheels, paper two-ply.
Happy hanging homebody having healthy hi.
Heaving hitting heartfelt Harry hopping high.

Ballooning blissful blossoms beaconing blue Babe,
Luxurious lumberjack licking lemonade.
Merry mashing marshmallows mysteriously made.
Fine frolicking French frankfurters fearful and afraid.

It is fun to throw some alliteration into a poem like this.
My brain is laughing at the silliness, it’s like a gentle kiss.
So when you think I have no more ideas, I am simply out.
Make a list of P words, or K words, and give a little shout.

Your ready muse will be happy that you are writing anything down.
It might not make any sense at first, but it will stop a little frown.
The thing is to keep the pen moving or the fingers across the keys.
Your muse so excited, when you make cute little poems like these.

Amuse Dear Muse

String your thoughts
As grip plots
A sweet spot


Brave touch cheers
Deep and dear
Now right here


The muse comes
As words sum
Feel that arms


Come to know
A crisp flow
That writes show


In stray tact
A new act
Paints brisk fact


Cause flames clear
Touch draws near
A deep spear


In odd rhymes
Mood speeds chimes
To mime time


Scripts seed change
Not as strange
As swift change


Feel the mood
As poise foods
Brand new good


Feel due gain
As voice strains
To breathe plain

Amuse

I sit still
Wait on thrill
That I feel


Odd wait here
Not on fear
But thoughts clear


Cheer works best
To seize zest
On this quest


Gain new wit
In brisk fit
Where I sit


By and by
A deep sigh
On a high


Lease of play
As tease strays
On odd way


Mind meets heart
In odd parts
That shape art


Now in time
Space bolts chimes
As blame mimes


In the end
Odds blaze trends
Round mad bends
