Best Aptly Poems


Premium Member Aptly
Wise words work well
Time truly tells


Speak simple swirls
Timely thought twirls


Live loud laughter
Walk wild wonder


Touch tickles time
Rapture reaps rhymes


Seek starry space
Treat tensile trace


Be beyond blame
Nice notes niche name


Aptly ask aim
See sober sane


Laughing lines loom
Zealous zest zooms


Brief blooms blossom
Aim arcs awesome


Feel fancy float
Bright beauty bloats


Dream dazzling dance

Premium Member Princess An Aptly Named Cat
Princess was a cat aptly and appropriately named.
She had gorgeous blue eyes not in the least tamed.
Her mother dressed her in silk gowns of royal azure blue.
She was treated like a princess, or a queen, also or too....

Ask now
Endow


Be well
Love tells


Charm clowns
Purge frowns


Dance trip
Firm grip


End game
Fits name


Frame feel
Sure thrill


Glimpse grace
Now trace


Hurl hurts
Dump dirt


Ink words
Joys heard

So much has changed
Yet love remains;
Sights seem so strange
In sad refrains.


You are gone now
Yet all looks bright;
Fine works endow
Our common sight.


Daze follows gloom
In sighs we heave;
In ample rooms,
Sadness still grieves.


Each mortal shines
In fond light brief;
Both yours and mine
Live joy and grief.


Too late, too soon
The final...

Sit here dear
Feel more clear


Mind moves more
Sense deep core


Love now dwells
You can tell


Wit trips time
Stop gap rhyme


Rain wets all
Love thrills call


Wet and wild
Feel love child


Say no more
Feel warm shores


Dance and dream
Love funds theme


Apt blooms bask
Dare to ask


In a way
Prize prompt play


Round the bend
All things end

These days live flair
With easy airs
In set affairs


The times bring change
In matters strange
To fit lost range


Space out the trace
In ambient race
That strikes odd pace


The moments here
Swirl fear and cheer
As storms rush near


Cast of many
Yearn for plenty
In mad hurry


So many takes
To make or break
What frenzy fakes


True...

(Dedication: For my wife Ann)
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~



Feel fertile fill
Watch waking will
Seek silence still


Prize profound peace
Live lovely lease
Thrill tensile tease


Apt asking aims
Forge fleeting flame
Now niche nude name


Dance deep dream dwell
Wise way wills well
Time truly tells


Vet vicious voice
Purge poignant poise
Caress calm choice

Bright blossoms bloom
Rich rapture rooms


Clear charm crafts cheer
Niche nature near


Warm welcome wills
Taste touchy thrills


Wit wanders where
Thought trembles there


Bright bounty big
Wears whimsy wig


Trust then the truth
Ply playful proof


Treasure tells time
Rude rowdy rhymes


Aptly arm art
Seek sacred start

Mad mushy make
Treat troubling take


Mean minding more
Set silly score


Mind milking moves
Gain gaudy grooves


Spread something sweet
Mingle mad meet


Trite telling taut
Niche nothing naught


Silly self shows
Broken brief blows


Mushy mind moans
Glimpse grumpy groans


Nil never not
Piece puzzle plot


Dust decays drop
Set simple stop


Insane ink inch
Tell touchy tinge


Apt anxious ask
Trials tumble task

Etch thoughts that dwell with profound flow.

Sense wonder strange curious and free.

Swift smiles employ that gracious tact.

Health moves each...

Heed heart happy
Frame fine fancy


Dance dear deeply
Sink sleepy sea


Watch welcome wise
Pique profound price


Nice naughty nook
Buy brilliant book


Love lifts laughter

Juice jumpy joy
Treat tasty toy


Wise words work way
Prize pretty play


Day dreams dance dear
Face fickle fear


Thoughts twirl thinking
Sleep soon sinking


Apt art ample
Sweet surge sample

Square peg in a round hole:
Do you spy a good soul?


Short take on a re-make:
Do you have a good take?


Truth or dare or a bluff:
Do you know your own stuff?


Easy, breezy fancy:
Do you feel odd frenzy?


Aptly now can you feel:
Do you fake that odd spill?
