Best Beep Poems

Old folks forget where they parked their Jeep
They wander around till they're almost asleep
Till there's just one car
"That's our car by gar"
But still push the button till they hear their car beep!

Old folks forget where they parked their Jeep
They wander around almost falling asleep
Till there's just one car
That's our car by gar
But still push the button to hear the car beep!...

It's always hardest, when there is no one to talk to-
When I dial your number, and it just rings and rings
Until the dreaded "voice mail" picks up.
For just an instant, when there is that brief crackle and "click"-
My hopes skyrocket that you have picked up...

Sixty years ago, Autumn was the season,
Seven minutes was all it took that dark night
Like a freshman, a little short of reason,
I had no clue what the future held in sight.

Maybe I would teach, or maybe I might not.
I could be a banker, wear a...

Oh wonderful, it's that sound again isn't it
The one that always welcomes me as I enter your room
I desperately wished that I can loathe the irritating sound
Alas I cannot for it's what keeping you alive
If that what passes being alive that is
You never seem to...

A winged horse, a unicorn
glides so effortlessly, airborne
blazing its way in early morn
  o'er ears of sun-ripe golden corn

Spying a gosling from its mother torn
This winged horse, our unicorn
Gathers its courage for an epic warn
  Poor thing ~ it's missing its horn...

(Beep, Beep)

Incessant beeping day and night, keeping pace with my heart beating.  My Eyes I try to shut but can't seem to keep my mind from sleeping. 

(Beep, beep) 

People come and go but friends no longer show. 

(Beep, Beep) 

Its the ebb and...

Beep beep
Drive
Do you know how to drive?
Left turn, right turn
Can you handle it?
How about going forward?
Yet we are afraid of going forward
Are you afraid you will be running into something?
Let's see now 
The last time I check you are still alive
Ahh I shouldn't say that
You...

BEEP BEEP

explosive action
sore coyote howls at moon
slips off precipice

the road runner splits his side
taunting infernal “beep beep”

How often do we beep,
self-awareness signal,
to exit our dream world,
abiding in stillness,
where flag of love’s unfurled?

How often do we beep,
pausing the flow of thought,
allowing heart to yawn
in joyous cessation,
ushering a new dawn?

How often do we beep
ourself back into space,
stopping the flow of time,
poised in animation,
imbibing...

Down Deep, Beep, Beep

So lovely, so pretty, so sweet, so deep,
Having such love that’s mine to keep,
From dawn until night tends to sweep,
You alone are my strength, and my beep.

In the time we met I see it true,
How funny to recall when I’m blue,
To be...

When you play fifty or sixty 
scrabble games day
you get incessant beeps 
on your cell phone


day and night, 
weekends, and week days.
It is a comfort 
knowing other insomniacs are up,
not able to sleep either. 
I love this!

Beep. Beep. Beep. Beep. Beep....

Laying here
On my death bed
Just wanting
It to be done
And over with
Tubes going
Throughout my skin
That one little line
That indicates
If Im dead or alive
Keeps beeping
Little beats
That is getting
Stuck in my head
Im getting
So tired
I only start to hear
One flat line
I know what it means
And somehow
I feel so peaceful
That...

Surrounded by white,
so safe, so secure.

Trapped in a comfort
which I can't endure.

People rush in but
just as quick they go.

My heart feels great pain
but it does not show.

The line jumps up 
and down in sync.

The hours creep by,
so much time to think

About how I got here,
how...

A teenaged tourist asked his dad
Why all the cars were “beeping.”
It happened right near Central Park,
With traffic slowly creeping.

His dad believed the honking was
So cars ahead would go.
The son replied that “beeping”
Wouldn’t help or make it so.

I wanted to explain to them
What honking’s all about...
