Best Ah Poems

The face in my mind
comes to stay for a time
and will not let me go
the day time crime
on which I dine
for my fantasy show

I lie in bed
to it I am lead
for quiet and pleasure
A hunger is feed

All through the day 
I see as I may...

That passion’s night, to make me sigh,
my love  seized several beams from sky
and shaped a ring of moonstone bright.
To make me sigh that passion’s night.

My darling beau, to make me smile,
then star-shine stole so he could style
a necklace rare with diamond’s glow.
To see me...

stretched taut against a golden sun
whipped by a salty breeze
white sheets entice sea-fragrant skies
earth's pungent scent seize

weary skin and bone . . . sinews worn
surrender to the fine
cotton softness perfumed by clouds
heaven and earth entwine

Ah, Alum Creek
A place I love to go

In the summer for a picnic
Or a jet ski talent show

The kids can run and play
Covered in sand from head to toe

Pack your 45
we've got UV rays to soak

Hitch up them jet skis boys
Dont forget the boat

"Out to...

Ah, perfection…..

The ever-sweet concoction of confection
Color inside the lines no deviation
No platypus designs in this creation
Be British, never rise above your station

Perfection….
We’re told we’ll never get there - so why try
Achieving naught but failure till we die
Listening to teachers sadly sigh
While wiping way the tears...

Ah, drifting leisurely inside the cloud, 
Watching hot sun’s rays glance across the nose 
of the winged drone, stealthily slipping proud, 
I drifted so peacefully through the floes. 

Updrafts from silent streams beneath arose 
lifting craft’s nose, unexpectedly plowed 
through looming cumulus's potential foes, 
Ah,...

It’s good to lament. Or maybe not.
A glorious future, never brought. 
I remember her, I did adore.
We were to be, evermore.

That’s what love can do. And did.
How quickly from my grasp it slid.
Love ended on a one-way track.
She loved me not as much back.

Heartbroken with...

Ah,  King Biden, thou dost lie to me!
When thou blamest Putin for everything from sea to sea!


             Dost my head look like it’s made of wood?

Creepy, quiet, mellow, velvet night,
The hour that my love shines bright,
As moondrops fall from above;
I'm in the arms of love.

Like leaves that whisper on the trees,
I hear love's symphonies;
On the streets of Italy, London, and Paris, France,
Lovers chance to dance.

The dark lover called Passion,
Is never...

Once my leather shoes made me proud with their softness and luster,
but after eleven months of heavy usage they have lost all glamor;
even small thorns and nails can penetrate their worn-out soles;
ah, squeaky, squeaky shoes...you annoy me when steady rain falls!...

Ah, Wanderlust, my soul for you burned hot!
When fresh and filled with fancy, I could not
sit still for long, for I was wont to flee
the simple life with its monotony.
The moon and stars were mine (or so I thought).

In college when I turned eighteen, I...

Ah, Spring my soul you do delight
and smells of the fresh greenery
with the tranquil sounds of the night.

No more does winter's cold us bite
making folks tug scarfs and scurry
Ah, Spring my soul you do delight.

The silvery moon shines so bright
setting alight the scenery
with the tranquil...

The tall veteran
wears a camouflage faded cap 
and dark shades to hide
his smooth, scarred face: doesn't he wish
that somebody shook his hand...
ah, unpraised soldier!

Grip it, rip it, stick it.
Bombed it, flopped it, topped it too.

Stay, sit, slice, scoot,
Run, kick, roll, draw,
Carry, fly, die, spin,
Watch the little ball go in.

Hop, get up, get down,
Break, oh please just bite,
Ah, the glories of the ball in flight.

On the screws, hit it...

can I make you pregnant
so that we can at least
have a daughter or a son
it sounds less tackful
but as we have begun
all the obstacles have gone
and the strains of lust 
has loosened
I thought to be one
as father and mother
might allow us to be
together as a...
