Best Boredom Poems

If there’s something that will drive me crazy
And if there’s something that makes me insane
It’s just boredom that will put me in shame

Boredom only offers wilted flowers
I’ll just crave,  making me a hungry girl
Showing me the dark sky for star to search

Like holding all...

Speaking once for some levity
Speak it twice for revenge
Speaking three times so you look at me
You’ll hear me never again

I paint you a picture
Of everything you are
If you’re honest you will love me
Too bad I’m just another scar

Speaking of how to retrieve me
I sing my...

Like sick allergies, 
Boredom can be passed around
I call it: THE BOREDOM DISEASE

Like a horrid storm,
Boredom can catch you off guard
Hold on for DEAR LIFE!

Like the whooping cough,
Boredom can be serious
If I were you, I’d
Get a vaccination !...

Satin white lily pads
cushion the high jump
performed by the three-legged frog.

Heated blaze bakes his fading green coat.
He leaps into his hot tub paradise.


       Life is floating by.


A big grin and loud croak announce his pleasure.

What appears to be boredom...

Boredom is boring
Free time nor work excepted
That leaves poetry...

the sights are too odd to take. 
creepy dull moments,
tick tock of the clock absurds

Spontaneous ladies,
embellished by eons,
illusive, enchanting,
with black velvet "eyes,"
and fringed yellow cloaks,
sparkling with diamonds
at midnight and dawn,
Oh, fly me away from
my grey-flooded days,
from the four-lane race
and the file drawer maze.
Fly me away from 
the chain of the clock
and the sink of necessities.
Bring me in spirit
to magical...

Achieve greatness by running a race.
Break sound barriers- just go to outer space!

Climb a mountain to get a good workout.
Deliver a speech- you'll probably have to shout...

Earn some money by helping clean up.
Film a video where you put on makeup.

Graduate college, online, of course!!!
Hire for...

My room is a mess - it's an archaeological record of boredom.
Christmas, Christmas, come on Christmas.
It's 4 days 'til Christmas. Why don't I go to my room and do NOTHING??

The clock ticking sounds like a large horse clomping over cobble stones. 
Last year there were...

Nowhere to go ... nothin' to do
Ended up here ... out of the blue,
Don't wanna stay, don't wanna go home
Takin' in the night air, writin' this poem....
