Best Alert Poems

*The feline Texan way*

A clean coat of paint - on my nails
Red shade of lips - on my smile
Solid oak charms - on my wrist
Country music - around my core
Flattering eyes - a rustic shell.
Join me in a "Country Girls Tale"

Every day I draw near...

A warning sounded on my phone -
An elongated beep -
So loud it must be meant to wake
Whoever is asleep…

Alerting me that there could be,
Within my current range,
A dangerous flash flood, which I
Found really kind of strange.

There is no river and no lake
For many miles around
And...

Weather Alert, Expect Hard Freeze
Miracle Man
October 31, 2023

The weather alert started with a northwest breeze,
and said before morning we’d see a hard freeze.

But this won’t be the earliest freeze I’ve seen,
for it isn’t uncommon to predate Halloween.

The results of this, green leaves will be browned,
and...

Somewhere in France
In the Countryside
A farmer has been arrested
For molesting an old cow
A drunken old hag was on all fours
Crawling around in his field
He, having had his wine and baguette
Thought he had forgotten one cow
Off he went to fondle and milk her ****
Turned...

Mischievous monkeys swing while
boisterous birds bring a smile.
Earthy smell so full of life,
jungle energy is rife.

One hundred years of hell
And a hundred more of pain
Why did I stop you hanging there
So you could hurt me again

I came gracefully granted your wishes
Healed all the pain
I had a word with God 
Wh also helped me again

Now my world is empty
No guitar notes...

My God!
what's in yond wind yee broke
doth burn mine eyes 
and make me choke.

Such bitter breeze
such wafting savour 
assaults mine senses
which flee in terror!

No sewage pit
nor stagnant mire
cans't rival thine
unholy power.

A road dead skunk
in a summer's swelter
would smell more like a rose
most precious flower.

What cursed...

Alone, and afraid…
Where’s my Mommy?
I can’t find Daddy.
I begin to cry.
And scream for some help.

They can’t hear me.
It’s far too loud.
For a young one…
With a little voice.

Where am I?
It’s cold here…
And scary?

I know
I’ve been…

Left....

Many words of fabrication said
To justify one’s fatal end
Innocent blood to be shed
For love of colour red,
Soon to hell he’ll go
Leave behind though
Broken hearts
Ne’er to
Mend.

I am asked for the access code that will expire 15 minutes after
behind the curtains 
someone is nervously tapping their foot on the floor
creaking
I'm waiting in my imaginary world,
even though I haven't been for a long time
I created my reasons and opinions
if longing cannot create...
