Best Amazon Poems

The Amazon River

The Capybara wades the shore
A Wooly monkey climbs a vine
To search for food up on the trees 
The Amazon that I adore
Its total nature I will bind
Bromeliads have blushed with love
Blending in the waters shore

The Jaguar stalks to hunt his food
The Anaconda will digest
His conquest on the night before
Humans carefully sense the mood

The travel agent said adventure was calling,
In a lush paradise of beauties enthralling!

No harm would befall us, with a capable guide;
This Amazon tour would be a scenic, easy ride.

We weren't outdoors types, my companion and I,
But it sounded so exciting, that we gave it a try.

We gaily vanished into color, sight and sound,
Which is unparalleled...

I am the tundra barren cold and numb
A frozen wasteland where no light can reach
Between these poles, my insatiate self-succumbs.

In icy silence where no whimpers humb
My thoughts like glaciers grind, erode, and breach
I am the tundra, barren, cold, and numb.

The Amazon within once vital thrumb
Of life and hope now withers out of reach
Between these poles...

(sung to the tune of Oh, Tannenbaum)

Oh, Amazon, oh Amazon
You give my life such meaning
For letting me buy all my gifts
While safely quarantining.

At birthday time or Chanukah
(Which makes it more ironica)
Oh, Amazon, oh Amazon
My purchasing’s a pleasure.

When what I need is in a store
Which I refuse to enter,
One click and you can show me more
Up...

Poetic Amazon


I can see sparks in your eyes
  mind stirred by an inner fire,
That touches and electrifies
  fingers with Poetic desire;

Crack of spark jumping gap
  from your tips to Poetic writ,
And, explode like thunder clap
  with satire and sizzling wit.


Dedicated to Poetic Killer A

getting old
sitting on my rocker
waiting for mail 

a package
from Amazon 
with my first fast elder walker with seat

they say that this fast elder walker with seat
could last 
up to ten years to the day

I do pray 
that this walker 
is not my last 

and that it and I 
don’t go too fast...

Dihing, adjoining borderline with Arunachal,  on the foothills of mighty Patkai, 
In the encircling mesas of terrestrial plains of high altitudes, 
lies the Assam Valley's tropical wet evergreen forests, 
Named after its thick density of  trees and profuse diverse ecology, 
the Amazon of the East,  the Dehing- Patkai...

Above the palms I scan the ebon night
With crystal stars reflecting in the dark
The yellow moon is shining on the boat
A crocodile swims by without a sound

A cacophony of sound is stirred in the morn
A shaman greets us with a blessed hand
Three frontiers await us as we drift
In ageless waters of the deep
 
Pink dolphins...

"BIRDS OF  THE  AMAZON – 

Below  the  canopy  of trees, 
who  seek the  secrets  of the  sky 
A  paradise  of  colour ,
a world blessed  with those  who fly.

Macaws  of  blue  and  red,
where  parrots  of ...

A Prince once met a princess, this was what he thought...

She's not used to someone this young

But at Parlour something Beautiful Sprung

Fate at it's finest.

First person I laid my eyes upon,

turned out to by my highness.

She was lovely down to earth, not to mention the spirit.

I hoped we both could feel it.

So we sat and...

THE AMAZON MEETS THE GREEKS

When life was thick with possibility,
Before the written word and the weighing scales,
Your definitions held too much probity
In the rich seamless embroidery of our tales.

Our vanished mystery, which your history sealed
Up in the libraries of the planet’s scar.
So what way to better wield a shield?
You men just skirt the theory of...

Invisible figures moving in the mists of time,
Hidden female phantoms, masters of the wilderness
Wild, blending in as chameleons, they are the unseen.
Legend's cryptic tribe. 
Maidens veiled beneath mysteries coverlet’s of beauty,
Vanishing, as if a vapors mystic dream, created by ancient
Historic mythology.
But nay the Amazons, were fierce fighting warriors,
Battle hardened women, whom lived by the basic...

Sweet Amazon, my River Styx.
Only this time you carried me out of Hell
Into a life that’s real and true.
Shall I now approach the throne of grace
With only shame in my heart and empty hands,
Having sacrificed all that’s good and true
On the altar of other people’s ideas and opinions?

The quiet voice of spirit sings its song...
