Animals Poems - Poems about Animals

Oh, God bless the beasts, that have no voice, that have no choice. We can't really see the world they see, or know what they truly want and feel, until they can talk to us in a proper conversation... "Ben, the two of us, need look no more. We've both found, what we were looking for!" "I...

According to the ballad, Davy Crockett, born in Tennessee (part of North Carolina at the time), kilt him a b'ar when he was only three (altho' only a song, always had my doubts about cruelty to animals from one so young). Playing with it night and day, young Davy should have taken more care (had a hunting reputation), he pulled the arms and legs off his...

The Kitten In canine halls of wisdom, where dogs do reside, A furry little menace, has decided to abide, A kitten, small and sassy, with eyes so bright, A ball of fluff and trouble, that's always in sight. She pounces on my tail, with a playful little mew, I'm like "Hey, what's the deal?" but she just looks at me "mew", She's...

I called to the monkey who wore a pinstriped suit, Found out the giraffe and hippo are mute. Saw a man stare at a lemur 'til dark, Like he was waiting for some kind of spark. The leaves fell from trees, an impressive display, So I waved my arms like I made it that way. A woman made comment to me,...

Zoo life is where some live, they are trapped in the zoo of life. They stay all day in the zoo, living in their cage. They wait to see all the people pass them by so they can jump up and down, and make a show. They need love and care; they only want attention...

Black Birds Flying at Wal-Mart I see them gather, flock on flock, At 7:30am sharp, they start to squawk and talk. The sun peeks up, the horizon glows, The air alive with cackles and crows. Their feathers bristle, sharp and black, They soar and dip, they dart fourth and back. Their eyes, a yellow shining disc, Reflect the light, a golden whisk. The parking...

It was a party of fleas who dropped some tea into the sea, Created a baby that left its mommy, Now there is an elephant and donkey in the room, So, lets ask, who’s the bigger a--? A spark, a flare, lighting a camel, an affair, Puff of smoke gone, what went wrong? Bully the pulpit, who’s the culprit, Line drawn...

All the Other Animals They Don't Swear 'Cause They Can't Talk. But They Sure Do Curse A Lot! Oooo! Controversial! Really? -Gray Squirrel 04-27-2025...

The perfect petals puncture the fabric’s purple-blue, And silver-platter fins paint the water every hue. A globed sky has thawed, ripe with pine and sapphire stars— And the glinted sheen of the oil graze on your lips reminds me who and where you are: South; below the electric-white moon, Bright enough to bleach my bones and...

Birds Rabbits Red tailed hawks Little chipmunks Gorgeous butterflies Feral cats cute kittens Crazy tiny fast squirrels Most majestic cool dragonflies Some dogs leashed other dogs unbridled Silent but smart, steady and swift barn owls Animals creating euphoria Compassionately loving partners Nature's eloquent beautiful Serene equilibrium Like roseate brushstrokes Upon heart's canvas Humanity Harmony Cherish Life...

Once upon a time on a quiet walk I felt strongly that I was being watched. Stood still and listened, but heard nothing. Then noticed the trunk of a small brown tree. A tiny snake was sliding down it, without sound. Another time I was walking in the forest at dusk. I heard the crunch of leaves next to me as...

Cooper was a large and curious tiger, the bright star of a motley circus, Always out of step with others; like erring moon, of dawn skies, citrus. He was well fed and got lots of attention, like rave days of mist roses, When silver moments tell true stories, before the latterly hour closes. Whenever other tigers went left, Cooper...

Well, there is someone for me now- I thought as I bought him home from the pet-shop, My boy had left me last week, Now I have him to kiss my cheek Ah! What a company! I took him in my lap, And showed him my house's little map, Which I had made for the rose now faded, Which was seen by the...

New kid lost in a new world, when separated from what was known and loved, alone when separated. Some animals regrow lost parts of themselves: twisted limbs or tail. Parasites die without another to depend on. They die when separated. Barnacularly reaching out to anyone who will notice, with bird-like wails, desperate to be seen, to survive, before it is...
