Best Blimps Poems

Cream puffs, pies, and chocolate brownies
Should surely be banned from the planet
They have no real value, no redeeming factor
We stuff our faces like gannets

Moms always says, “Johnie's got a sweet tooth”
So when he chows down like a pig
It gives him the okay to eat gobs...

On My Eighty Fifth Birthday

Another Birthday…I’m still alive
Never thought that I’d survive
To the ripe old age of Eighty Five!
But here I am…feisty still
Even though I’m over the hill!
Don’t count me out...Don’t ring that bell
I’m still here and raising hell!

Had a few blimps along the way
But...

Bruce Willis is at the Super Bowl with blimps and tunnels to run thru!
Run! Bruce Willis! Run! The bad guys are after you!
His wife is in the seats wondering if she’ll be safe!
Honey! Your Hubby is BRUCE WILLIS! No one could be MORE SAFE!

If something...

11. They came to devour and sin.
I was briefed by a cornucopia of beings:
From Torchwood, ARGUS, SHIELD and their kin;
The Talamasca, The Shop and MiB Greens;
A BPRD agent who was burning in Hell;
The Syndicate, Consortium, Watchers and Trust;
The Illuminati brought a golden bell;
C.L.I.T.O.R.I.S., MHI (such...

At first there was nothing in the very distant past,
Then bang! There was everything, a universe so vast;
All splendid and magnificent,  terrifying and mundane.
But before we knew all this, before we could explain,

About giant, burning, swirling gas balls,
And dark vortexes that swallow worlds,
Before we...

World War I gave us the fly-boys
Who flew by the seat of their pants.
Many would never return from war
While others survived by chance.

Their planes were mostly canvas and wood
Gasoline, bullets, bombs and poison gas.
Every pilot carried his own pistol
Wearing leathers, scarf and goggles of glass.

Aviators...

with noticeable burgeoning bosom in the offing, ahoy
this baby faced blubbery bosom beastie boy
fast becoming a bra man,
and might hire himself out
as a male wet nurse for employ

I behold two bopping, brewing, busting

BREATHE DEEP
Hugging the earth
With you since birth
Though invisible
Much is possible

Fun times in party balloons
Less often in hot air balloons
Kites built and challenged to fly
Planes and blimps enjoy the sky

Games played with inflated balls
Windmills make energy, not squalls
Top-down convertibles make hair stray
Clouds and fog begin the...

Gremlins, gnomes, a leprechaun and thee imps 
Walked into a bar owned by some chimps 
Ate too many chips
Weight went to their hips
They rolled out later, looking like blimps...

Got Beer Fix at Check Six

invited my to go to a new bar with him. That
is how we ended up at The Check Six Bar,

After many places we were comparing
On a certain bar we got our bearing
In Southport area where...

They are dug in under the screen door
where my foot swings, where concrete crumbles.

Fat and fuzzy the bees scurry as heavy as baby mice.
They share an apartment with a chipmunk,
and a long amber centipede
that sometimes emerges
to ripple-wave at something only it can see.

The bees skim...

I struck the raw edges
Jagged scraps
my shards

thunders like waves of anger

on your shore breeze sighed

to ride the wind
sunrises past my dismay

odious side of dark
souvenirs blazing
fade in 

skyline silken sun song

propel blimps
orthopter wings
&
draw dusk aches
with burning shapes
& endless rapturous sinew

crimson philharmonic!

grateful life flows
beyond obvious
 
bestowal affection...

Man Believed and Dreams Came True
     By Dane Smith-Johnsen

Man looked up and saw birds fly.
Then, dreamed of soaring in skies.
Balloons, blimps, and hand-gliders
Rockets, shuttles, planes. Man flies!

Man looked out and saw seas near.
Then, dreamed of swimming with fish.
Skins, tow sleds, and...

There’s a global inflation problem
everywhere lungs are puffed up
heads are swollen.

Balloons increase in volume overnight.
The cost of rubber bands
has been stretched to its limits.

We recall sadly the heady days of deflation,
when shrinkage gave us more space
to spread, to drink our fill
of a less bloated air.

Politicians...

Every second Sunday my CD collection disperses 
fertiliser from 
blimps and 
zeppelins onto a 
great distance areas.
