Best Alarming Poems

 to the faceless 
   names I’ve phased, 
forgive the silent sunsets, 
    frozen in time, 
  and remember thin 
    cinnamon skylines, 
how ink carved compassion 
 across cranberry canvas, cosmically~
 when heaven rained

We’re having a little break from home
and had planned a busy day,
after a leisurely breakfast
we would soon be on our way.

We sauntered down to the restaurant
and were shown to a window table,
I fetched a bowl of blueberry yoghurt
whilst my hubby got a ham bagel

ALARMING GHASTLY GHOSTLY HOST--
I saw an alarming ghost,
It wasn't all by choice;
I saw a scary spectre, 
swapping alarming for scary...entomb host;
swapping ghost for the spectre,
gravesite loyal protector;
~
I saw an alarming ghost;
I heard a ghastly ghost,
swapping alarming for a ghastly scary loyal host;

Beef is conceived in a package
  Onions are grown in a bag
Sardines swim best in oil
  Pebbles thrive in the soil

Today's teens don't know geography
  But they sure do know about farming

Dear ladies and gentlemen!
You're  born on this Earth
For leading your entire life
That could be defined 
Simply in a few words as
‘Merely childish’

You all have managed to learn
A kind of an artificial voice
That doesn’t connect you 
With your inner hearts: 
You’re all heartless toys!

You live...

Once up early
Full of pep
Out the door
And down the step

But that was then
And this is now
Later on
I’ll wonder how

Now they‘re ruthless
just can’t do them
Yawning, cranky
past my prime

Set the clock
To something different
Let me sleep
Till dinner time

Going at an alarming speed
Taxes and parking fees
Across uncharted seas
I'm in the presence of sharks and trees
Keeping any B.S. far from me
Among constant conflict and chaos, I've only partially
Found harmony
It all use to dishearten me
Experienced much first hand rather harshly
Around me was constant paraphernalia like...

Alternating, adjusting accuracy.
Allowing, accepting alarms.
Announcing, albeit alluding to
Actions, of arrivals arriving....

The alarm clock isn’t going off;
    it’s dead there on the stoop.
I fear the feral cats

C-ontain the alarming attack
O-f the violent virus; 
R-epel the China crisis
A-nd the risk so vicious.

A-larming attack applies
L-ethal link of the curse; 
D-efense is really important, 
E-ven equipment matters. 
F-ight the terrible threat
O-f the devil dark and black; 
L-et not the immunity system
L-ose to alarming
A-ttack.
