Best Baggage Poems


Premium Member Baggage
Some people wear baggage like a hat in church,
Still others could conceal it through a customs search!
Me? It depends on the mood that I'm in,
My frame may be thick, but my skin's super thin.

As a child, dysfunction was all that I knew.
Violence and alcohol increased...

Miss Wrong With Plenty of Baggage
I still haven't found my Miss Right;
the girl with the cat was a fright:
she farted all day
and stank of decay,
then played with her pussy all night...

for the Baggage contest...

TIME TO DISCARD BAGGAGE

WOW! she took a shellacking
from the words that grown girl spoke
after clearing up the air
loving relationship hope.

Didn’t like all the things she heard 
tho had right to speak her mind
pray after the dust settles
old baggage she’ll leave behind.

All families have their issues
God...

“Baggage” 

Baggage collected 
scooped up in the arms
of strange angels

the unexpected 
expected 
some time 

will deliver
the poetic 
message

reasons
in humerous
rhyme

saints arrive
barefoot 
no glass slippers

Love
Joy 
Be

without
baggage
all in good time

His Baggage Had a Name
Tara would be the bee in any woman’s bonnet,
incessantly whining, “Buy me this, buy me that.”

Manipulating
     Selfish
          Rude

She knew all the tricks to inflict guilt
in her divorced father who thought he failed...

Heavy Baggage
I carry this 30 pound bag wherever I go,
Some call this item a purse,
I say burden!
Inside;
pink wallet with metallic stars
  (not alot within except an unused gift card and an ID)
12 hair ties, all black
2 bottles nail polish
  (1 is Lagoon blue, 1...

Premium Member Reborn Here Now Without Baggage
Reborn…here…now…without baggage.
Utterance of repentant lips.
Christ carried on cross the damage—
thorns, brambles, spikes, hooks of cursed whips.

“I’ve made my bed, now lie in it…”
Reborn here now without baggage!
Merciful Lord, my sins acquit.
Bitter, sweet and deep death passage…

Baptism’s pure salvation-salvage,
Refreshed with clean conscience, exposed.
Reborn here now without...

Premium Member And Mother Came Too - Excess Baggage
I met Peter for a blind date
His bad habits I REALLY hate
He sat picking his nose
Finding fluff from his toes
Then both of these items he ate!

His mother accompanied us …
She’d sat next to me on the bus
Told me Peter was ‘pure’
And to be doubly sure
She’d...

Premium Member A Mouth With Baggage
Owned by a soul which is but a mirror with numerous cracks
producing adulterated words and staged expressions
transparency has been given numerous stretch marks
from its tongue which guns down actuality
its lips so insensitive and always paralyzing reality
with the thongs of imagination, hooks of inventions and blades...

Daughter In Laws Baggage
Daughter-in - law's baggage.

That mother - in - law  will change
Or accept me for who I am
Seems difficult.
Being the head of the family,
She places orders to everyone,
Me given the most orders
Even my skillful assertiveness
Doesn't convince her.
"She did this","she did that"
Echoes in my mind.
Ego based...

Baggage
I tried to be nice and polite
Last thing I'd do, pick up a fight
Just for today, be out of sight
Not a thing just seems to be right

I can take your dumb, stupid ways
But please stop stepping on my base
Stop making me part of your case
You...

Premium Member Seattle Streets
The traffic light
delayed us both
Me driving my car
She driving her cart.

The traffic direction changed, rotated,
making black eyes spark annoyed 
as her walk signal failed to appear,
   shrunken mouth twisting crooked 
   ‘neath her frowned brow
   as roughly she retreated,...

Mr Magic
Manifestation of pain
inside walls of your gospel
Penned up truths that 
haunted your psyche but
you made the pen a weapon 
that prospered against all 
that troubled you
Troubled King with skeletons 
married poetry 
crowning her the help mate that
helped clean out the closet
The stories you tell your...
