Ate Poems - Poems about Ate

I Ate the Silence

I was a happy child
 Carefree, talentless, happy 
Jumping  around and singing tunes
 Tunes of bygone joy and unbridled dream

But they scorned me
 They mocked the child I was within 
They tried to make me like them
 Children whose child within was slain

But I persisted
 By God I persisted.
 I refused to sing only

what the dog ate

A feeble excuse that's plain as day,
given in the forlorn hope 
it evokes forgiveness and pity, 
with a lame witty ditty tale,
about what the dog ate,
is demacing, defacing, emacing and demurring.
It voids the hope of mercy, pardon and exoneration
that the dog ate as well.

Large Furry Visitor-or What Ate the Suet

bird feeder pole snapped in two
suet cakes gone-border collies barking
large furry forager departed- sated

We ate the ones who died

We ate the ones who died
But we did not murder them
We had to survive, right?

I stared at the surviving member of the Donner party
Did she not know
Two native American guides with them had been murdered
For food?

Not wanting to cause her any more anguish,
I did not correct her.

Turning Mud Pie into Poetry Soup, Part Ate

Kapow!  Here’s mud in your face! 
Poetasting rhymes, rhythms and nuclear waste. 
Playing in mud pits, kitchens and certainly laced 
Everyting that’s made . . . in this mysterious place. 
Prob’ly shouldn’t eat this mud in this pie, 
It may be somthin’ that’s all just a lie. 
Interesting reads and certainly flies . .

I Ate Lies

Whilst I ate fries, I ate lies.
A bargain made, no school

for the next day, the bargain.
No one told me tomorrow

was Saturday. I ate lies
heavily hidden under ketchup.

My Dog Ate My Homework

I'm going to tell you a story, I swear its 100% true..
About what happened to my homework, and why it was overdue.
You see my dog ate my homework, oh no! oh gosh!
I stare at it in horror, its been gobbled and squashed.

I've worked hard all week to have my homework done..
I did it all by

Fido Ate My Homework

here are the bits of my homework I say
tossing them out of an Oatmeal box
Onto my teacher's desk
They are slimy with saliva
she screams

She ate the bread

Decades passed in memory's dust.
Too many betrayals between us.
For material things, she always lust.
She ate the bread, left me it's crust.
Let it go, forgive, I know I must but
in my mind I just can't trust.
She ate the bread, left me it's crust.

The box that John made

This is the box,                                                   

TIGER

There was tiger named Archie Hoggerpipe,
Who, weirdly, wished to swap every dark stripe.
A turkey quickly agreed
To meet Archie's costume need.
Thankful lions ate Arch, leaving no tripe.

The stuffed pride of lions later cried fowl.
O how the savannah shook with their howl.
A tiger without wishbone
Left all lions anger prone,
Until round the striped turkey they did prowl.

Delicious Food I Ate During My Travels

If you judge food with the quantity put before you
Then my first choice will be the Victoria Hotel*.
On Sunday lunch, food is too plentiful, makes you blue.
There we will eat so much it will make our tummies swell.

In my travels, I had times when food was super great.
Like when in sunny Ireland we drove up

The Pile He Ate

birds fall hunger-wise...
before
cold winters shortages...

today a woodpecker ate...
such an
overfill it had to lay on the...

feeder for ten minutes till...
its throat
cleared so that it could fly...

it was such a 'pile he ate' that...
it's
called a 'pileated' woodpecker...

A Girl Ate a Hat

A girl ate a hat, what a thrill,
Mistaking it for her contraceptive pill.
In her moment of haste,
A hat she did taste,
Now she's throwing up,  her tummy's bloated still!
