Benedict Poems - Poems about Benedict


Premium MemberFrom the Benedict Arnold Trial

"One if by land, two if by sea". 
That's what Paul Revere said to me.
But my memory's just no good, 
and sadly, I misunderstood. 
Anyway, Paul was just a spy,
and I like eating shepherd's pie.

Congrats Heman Penning As Pope Benedict

Commotion in and out of seasons
Opening of ancient doors, both with
Nuances and ignorance that birthed
Guilt and sorrow, both in latter and former days
Reverence to self-adjustments in doing what is within reach,
Ambient in thumbing up and drumming
Terrestrial support, self-budding to nail adequate audience
So promising, yet disappointing outcome from presumptive 
Hue of energy embolden, desperately reaching for

Pope Benedict Writes

I am much aware of the previous records you read
Both bearing my mark and my seal
Carried no good, stocked with vile and deceit
But I urge you brothers and sisters
To think harder, coz I’ve been penning for your good
Whatever that spooned you, whichever way you were spooked,
Am back in a new hood
With goodies deep in my

A Corner Booth and Eggs Benedict

The mood needs to be just right
Candles lit and flowers placed perfect
So fun to be in the spotlight

Winds of fortune caress this site
Our guard down, never circumspect
The mood needed to be just right

Ambiance fills

The White House harbors an orange traitor
Benedict Donald, science-hater
He never met a fact
He didn't try to whack
This prick puts the 'dick' in Dictator!

The obtuse ogre of petty poses
Has imposed on the City of Roses
His troops of lackeys
In unmarked khakis
Masking free speech with tear gas and hoses

Anyone who does not tongue-kiss his shoes
Is fired, or conspired

Eggs Benedict for breakfast.
Bring me some poached eggs.
Serve them on English muffins.
Thin slice some lean ham.
Lemony hollandaise

Yum!

Pope Benedict Xvi Chants Pater Noster

The Pope Benedict XVI chants, " Pater Noster " with a voice not so grand
while distracting himself by gazing at God's outstretched hand
that Michelangelo painted so well
on the ceiling of the Sistine Chapel.


This is a Gregorian chant with music sumptuously composed
by monastery monks whose life dedication was to preserve knowledge
despite the barbaric invasions that they

The New Pope, Benedict Xvi

His name is Joseph Ratzinger, the new pope Benedict XVI,
Installed as the two hundred sixty-fifth pope since foundation;
he’s a staunch defender of orthodox Catholic doctrine;
he’s German, an accomplished polyglot and theologian,
a good friend with sincerity and humility in every action.

He’s remembered too as someone who’s in opposition
to include Turkey as part of the so-called European

You can arise whenever you choose to
And that’s why I’m so jealous of you
You can eat whatever you pick out
As for my breakfast there ain’t any doubt

I know precisely what will be on my metal tray

Your pantry is full of

Breakfast Ain'T Eggs Benedict That's For Sure By Poefree
