Best Abracadabra Poems
A picturesque scene from my window this afternoon.
Banishing all greying clouds, the sky is pastel blue.
Radiating the sun's rays, rain was not seen for days.
Astonishing vibrant rainbow of flowers are strewn.
Clusters of marigolds, daffodils and lilies grow.
A glorious image appears in the far lagoon.
Delicate swans are gliding in the sparkling waters.
Adorable signets will be completely grown soon.
Bewitching aromas from where the white jasmine grew.
Rain was not seen for days, radiating the sun's rays.
Alluring sunset drenches all crimson, by the moon.

Some think abracadabra comes from the Hebrew phrase “ebrah k'dabri,” and means “I create as I speak,'” - while others think it comes from “avra gavra,” an Aramaic phrase meaning “I will create man” — the words of God on the sixth day of creation.
“When God created Woman, he was working late on the sixth day. An Angel came by and asked, ‘Why spend so much time on her?’ The Lord answered, ‘Have you seen all the specifications I have to meet to shape her?’” “‘She must function in all kinds of situations."
Spring arrives atop warm beams of sunlight
while Her breath softly caresses my skin.
Without much toil, Spring swiftly thaws the soil,
and daffodils start sprouting overnight,
while a green stubble starts to veil the trees.
Spring, like Autumn, is a magical sprite;
sharing the same passion for rich pigments
between them: they hold every copyright.
When Winter is no more than a has-been,
Spring swiftly thaws the soil, without much toil,
while wildflowers color a world of white.
Abracadabra! Bountiful crystals drop effulgently from God’s heaven.
Icy jewels kissing landscapes move - nacreous - over pristine quietude.
Refreshing souls, this unruffled, velvet white Xanadu yields zephyrs!
A poet paints a leaf greener than it is,
a dramatist makes the story more tragic,
human nature crave for what unreal gave,
ignores reality that may hold more bliss,
those large white marble sculptures of long lost kings,
are carved to perfection to look Adonis,
because a lie often earns more wealth than truth,
there is money behind every Judas kiss,
pretending gurus con people through magic,
for what unreal gave, human nature crave,
stay with the real, give false pretences a miss.
hard to understand how we got here
the kitchen clock full of gooey moments
warning us to build now what we have not yet lived
but it's sad because all it took was one key
a damn password or any abracadabra
thing to decipher those riddles
that prevent us from growing
something to get us out of these picturesque circumstances
lost between culinary recipes
miracle remedies and endless advertisements
if in the morning we could see in the mirror
less disappointment
if we got out of bed with some discipline
and if a car finally passed on the street
all colorful playing that happy song
and invited you:
Marco, come here
you won
take it look how cool
your first million!!!
I have spelled out love’s abracadabra
To take the gem from head of a cobra
I am playing the pipe to make her dance
I am dancing with her in wild romance
I have broken her fang to tame her now
She has become as good as a pet cow
I have touched her head with my magic wand
In order to make real my sweet dreamland
Thus I have turned her into a woman
Now she has become my favorite fan
Sometimes I order hobby items from China
I love scrapbooking supplies
The package was in the mailbox today
could not remember I had something on my order list
Maybe something I had forgotten
At first I was just surprised by what I saw
A small bag of seeds and a sample image
of a plant with real diamonds ... no flowering
yes, you heard right ... an unrealistic statement
"Seeds that give you wealth" was written on the bag
I planted my seeds and watered them a little every day
Waited patiently, but nothing happened
It's not fun to be fooled, but life goes on
And life is a mixture of jokes and seriousness

2nd place in the contest
My heart strokes the strings of memories, utterly sublime.
Alpine trees echo enticing chants to welcome me there.
Whirling in spirited hurry, now free from all worry.
Anticipation is engrossing my mind, before time.
There is magnetism in the alp's compassionate embrace.
I am bound for paradise, such a splendid upward climb.
Wanderlust cured, no more will I roam from my mountain home.
The alps bringing peace and security, as church bells chime.
Exiled no more, I return to breathe each breath of fresh air.
Now free from all worry, whirling in spirited hurry.
Blessed by God, I'm back to my mountain home with snow and rime.*
Miracles are God’s specialties indeed
showing His omnipotence of love might
bounty so gracious, healing that’s precious
sure pardon; thus, soul from damnation freed.
Devoid of abracadabra magic
Almighty power reigns midst grace to breed
proving the Lord’s triumph over evil
midst wondrous peace --- hatred cannot exceed
while faith grows, trusting Scriptures, truly right
healing that’s precious, bounty so gracious
miracles* happen, divinely decreed.
*Acts 2:22 … Jesus of Nazareth, a man approved of God among you by miracles and wonders and signs, which God did by him in the midst of you, as ye yourselves also know. Hebrews 2:4 God also bearing them witness, both with signs and wonders, and with divers miracles, and gifts of the Holy Ghost, according to his own will.

1st place, "Abracadabra March Magic" Rhyme Poetry Contest
Sponsored by William Kekaula; judged on 4/15/2021.
A new book Grandma brought along,
bound with adventures awaiting:
renewed storyline, refreshed scene,
anxious in my mind to belong.
Captivating, the cover leaped out,
announcing pop-ups like a gong.
Delightfully, she read the book
as I pulled each tab slow but strong.
Behold a circus pulsating:
refreshed scene, renewed storyline,
achieved by lion's teeth and song.

Abracadabra: New Form REVISED
I have cast a spell o'er thee, wicked one,
Owning, demon clings to our heart and soul,
Tis our love, our hope, together, we're free,
We were young, our life of good hath begun,
Yet thou took thee o'er and away from thee,
Though act's thoust do, sayeth father to son,
Retaliate -- thy consequence thoust cope,
Set thy ship and sail, begone, for thoust won,
Alas, bonds freed, flit darkness lost control,
Together, we're free, tis our love, our hope,
Thy shine gloweth, giveth reason for Sun.

gainig life back to divot
If only it could be so, Abracadabra
wise advise taken from fools
like the building of pyramids
as counting stars in the cloud
if only it could be so, Aracadabra
survival of twins becoming unfold
rain and sun ceasing against the wicked
Death imprisoned and chained
if only it could be so, Abracadabra
If i could determine my background
Twilight years becoming flash flood
Abracadabra, in minds of the wicked
if only it could be so Abracadabra
Nearby a door of green I stood one day.
I wanted that door to open for me.
“Abracadabra” in the wind echoed.
That magical word I was led to say.
Leprechauns emerged. “Tis March,” they exclaimed.
“Great pranks on people we are here to play!”
You can blame me if leprechauns appear.
Just tell them that they have to go away
if it happens that leprechauns you see.
In the wind echoed “Abracadabra.”
By April those tricksters had gone away!

for William Kekaula's Abracadabra March Magic Poetry Contest
(Used HMS for ten syllables per line - revised shortly after posting)
Note made by William Kekaula: The Abracadabra poetic format is an adaptation I had created from Magic Nine. . . The syllable count is your choice but must be the same for all eleven lines. abRacadabRa is the rhyme scheme, and the lines with the R's are reversed lines. All lines must be rhyming with the exception of lines 'c', and, 'd'.
