Best Acquaintance Poems

A young pretty lady, seeking company from an unknown
and to the hospitality of my open arms, she quickly lodge.
A stranger still remains an alien until some acquaintance is established
seeing what is right in front of me, such a feeling was purged.

Sweet conversation, chilly atmosphere and...

A LEAPING ACQUAINTANCE

O ask me if a friend is mine for keeping
And I will scroll down her countenance in years
To show acquaintance that’s a target leaping

And I will tell you of the long nights’ weeping
Into the valley of the corrupted seers
That her acquaintance was a...

I am going to write about
"renew acquaintance"
Have you ever thought of that?
Have you ever thought of how many people
we have known through the years?
What if we kept in touch with everyone?
Just think how many people we have known now
I am so bad at this
I don't...

When did acquaintance
Turn into friendship?
When did friendship become affection?
When did affection change to love?
There were no obvious signs
That I can recall
No waves crashing on the rocks
No rockets in the sky
No bells and whistles
No brass band playing
No symbols crashing
But it has happened anyway
Was it when I...

Out of the corner of my eye, 
an ex-colleague from bygone years spotted, 
walking in my direction, 
one in too many faces 
on a busy street now, 
in a big office then. 

What’s his name? 
One of those people you know but don’t know. 

I...

Time goes on a new dawn
arises. I look across my lawn,
and, wonder if I can bond
with neighbors like Lyn and John,
or Gina and Sean with a new baby.
They stand outside and wave or say "Hello."
They never get close , too busy as they go.

Unfortunately, times...

I’ve lots of lovely acquaintance
Their beauty shines as silver swans
When we meet, we just shake our hands
Smiling each other is just haven

It takes time to know them
‘Til the nicest ones become my friends
When trust has grown between us
Relationship stays stronger, it’ll always last.

I’ve fewer neighborhoods...

Visiting Aunt Juanita,
in Pocahontas nursing home,
we met her roommate, 
Jennie Butler.

Jenny loved to tell jokes,
and laughed often.
She sang gospel songs,
her voice filling the air
with sweetness,
as her face reflected joy.

No one would guess
she lay, day after day,
a prisoner to stiffness and pain.
Her hands and feet
were gnarled,...

Reduced to an acquaintance
That you mayhaps bump as you cross the street
In contrast to nights in which sleep did not exist
Grass in our hair and naked
Dampened by the sprinklers in dimly lit streets
And miles walked barefoot
Without an ounce of fatigue 
The most passionate and understanding...

Sea serpents are very articulate in a vehicle. They can wind great needles displaying exemplorary skill and agility. Yet a wise whipping weed can weave a wave from thin air. Displays of a iridescent knowledge. In true form. And exact. Yet a painted bud can...

This is not a tale, my friends, this is as true as the truths,
Could I say, it's the pathos of, a pair of insane youths?

Aftab Poonewala, the boy; Shraddha Walkar, the girl,
Both 'lived-in' long relationships and pleasures seemed to curl.

Did neighbors know the couple's inside...

Politeness rules in this land of fools. 
Howdy do Marilda. I am Tom Twiddlepacker. I am taking over Earth and your dog.
Good manners are ever so important. 

Pardon me Tom. ...
