Best Better Late Than Never Poems

     The indelible stamp
        of my favorite aunt
      my birthday gift arrived
        seven months late

      Yet unwrapping...

I've been waiting for you,
for so long.
Never thought one day,
I'd belong.
To someone who cared, 
for me.
Someone who'd always,
be there for me.

But,
Love comes to those who love,
and wait forever.
Don't give up hope, one day
you will be together.
When it comes to finding love...
better late than never.

So many...

Did I get that much older
Or did he somehow get 
younger
Maybe the answer is buried 
somewhere in between. 
Grandad to my children
Forevermore dad to me
I see him now in a way I had 
never seen. 

Has he become more tolerant
Or I much more sedate
We now listen to listen...

Sitting in the back car
of a fast moving train,
two strangers, their eyes slowly collide
Probing questions
over dinner by candlelight,
got so much in common they soon realize
Come late evening,
there’s dancing and laughter
Such a strong attraction they cannot hide
At the end of the journey,
they exchange digital promises
And so...

Birthdays come, and Birthdays go,
Yours is past, as you well know,
Not really sure why I forgot,
Could it have been an evil plot,
I always have good intention,
Just too busy, worth a mention,
Better slow down, smell the roses,
Stop the grindstone, save the noses,
You’re thought ‘bout, more often...

Better late than never,
But never late is better;
Complete the endeavour,
Be punctual, go-getter;

We try to be clever,
Late, but do to the letter,
Remember however
To be on time, trend-setter.

...exhortations against Ole Saint Nick
(alternately titled untold treasured shenanigans of Santa)

his elves and reindeer discovered only 
by colluding via "FAKE" fluke 
did I manage to worm winning the trust
among Christmas elves and reindeer

confident this generic guy,
would never breach scandalous
tidbits, into an underground impregnable
air-raid shelter, the...

Advice,
Better late than never

I was advised to ask the Doctor
For a home visit

And within just 5 minutes

My Mother was admitted to A&E

Because in all honesty i think
towards the end she was screwing
with me getting in my head

Playing game's putting me on a emotional guilt trip

But...

break through write
splattered on this page
you don't notice it now
inbetween words
like skies bleeding pink

sealing ships
how the sand bit their lips
before the streams run distances
anything to say, "notice me"
a fad of today
what will be left fallen
changing tides
idea man
all for you

I didn't see this coming, sorrow put...

BETTER LATE
THAN NEVER...

Okay! Better late, than never
As long it’s not a damn fever
Or else, you’ll see your lover
Sobbing, on a wooden cover
For who’ll pay the land rover
If, you left just your revolver
When you departed, forever
Because you did not recover
For thinking it’s just a fever
High or low, fever...

B-etter late than never, 
R-egards don't come on time; 
E-very well wish from friends
N-eeds the mountain to climb.
D-ay twelve in warm July, rhyme's arrival is delayed; 
A-lthough the music sounds familiar, it's over and over played.

R-ight there in the home
O-f your facebook account; 
L-ate greeter...

It has been months, I was lost in my thoughts
Forgot that there exists a page
where I need to upload my writings
All of those fine quotes, free verse 
also, some incomplete poetries which I need to complete 
It's already late but still
so here I am getting...

It was like reading a movie script, a familiar one though
I was playing the hero, with my alter ego playing the villain
They were up against each other, always in a conflict

While the hero was always about showering affection, pampering her people
The alter ego only kept...

better late than never

your money is not what I want

your gifts are not my 
priority

your excuses are not 
what I need 

just gave me what don't 
cos you but has value 
And that is what ?

your high profile is not 
my business

your excellence is not...
