Best Bracelet Poems
I wear a charm bracelet that you once gave to me, and every charm on it holds a special memory
The very first one has my initials before I took your last name, the next is a four-leaf clover for good luck every day
I have a ruby slipper because you told me that I was your princess on earth, and one about our friendship where our love started first
A white horse representing you riding in and saving me, a half-moon that you hold the other piece
A fairy to make all my wishes come true, an angel to protect me when I’m feeling blue
A diamond ring and oh how it shines, the initial of your last name that would one day be mine
A little boy and a little girl for what our future would be, a Cinderella pumpkin for you to carry my dreams
A butterfly to symbolize the love that would one day fly away, the lonely carousel with no one left to play
A sunflower so beautiful because you said it reminded you of me, and then lastly a heart that you eventually broke when you took your love away from me.
Like a halo circling, s t a r s.
Golden hues surround my wrist.
Bright, intricate; swoon is ours.
Twilight eyes I won’t resist.
Loosen chain; the rise of s c a r s.
Smooth with oil and balm, then kissed.
Life as a charm I wear on my arm
silver heart I wear as my internal alarm
to wake up to the sunshine that's never to fade
and those who have fun have it made
smile charm I wear for happiness so real
this one all can have, so this one please steal
unicorn charm to frolic through the meadow
clovers in abundance through which my bike I pedal
meditations so sweet, my own retreat
imagery of daisies, glories, and lilacs so sweet
musical note charm follow's with my tunes
classical melodies that end all too soon
in the quitude of a mellow night
all by myself, the chorus to hold on tight
life is a lot like charms I wear on my arm
all the symbols we love; like mom charm
lets' us know life is such a gifted charm
therefore, we must disarm, like a farm
The Medical Emergency Bracelet
By Elton Camp
Many wear bracelets, others to apprise
What to do if an emergency should arise
“If you find me in trouble, please if you will
Under my tongue put a nitroglycerine pill.”
“I am extremely allergic to penicillin, you see
Just one injection could very easily kill me.”
“I suffer from an extreme form of diabetes.
Remember that fact when you treat me, please.”
LeRoy decided it’d be wise to get one too
For the one thing he needed someone to do
“If you find me lying helpless at your feet,
Before all else, my browser history delete.”
My cousin is wearing an ankle bracelet because he got in trouble with the police.
He's always getting himself in trouble, his mischievousness will never cease.
He was given the ankle monitor and placed under house arrest.
Just thinking about his situation is enough to make a person depressed.
Don't be like my cousin, never commit a crime.
Because if you do, you'll end up doing time.
(This is a true story.)
Sparkling Trinkets
Holding locked up memories
Ultimately mine
Tattoo Charm Bracelet
My skin, a pure canvas before
No design beckoned me to explore
To be etched in the flesh, I deplored…
More mature, this great art challenged harm
Grand crucifix, my son’s heart, on my wrist, not arm
These jewels I’ll wear, linked in ink, each one a charm…

An empty charm bracelet is ready to fill with assorted charms.
There are so many things that have yet to be done
Before I fall asleep when my race has been won,
There are so many instances I can put right
Before I can walk softly with you in the light,
There’s are still many knots to take out of the rope
Before I can relinquish my doubts to my hope,
And though I am just human, my soul is a chain
Of floral remembrances caught in the rain.
Life is a bracelet, a daisy chain vow
More a promise I’ve taken from then until now,
A lane leading onward through nights and through days
With so many strange songs and so many strange ways,
Yet although I once limped through each hope and each dream
Looking back into shadows, they still held a gleam,
And sunrises before me hold more than sunsets
For daisy chain petals are much more than bracelets.
There’s a church by a stream in an island of calm
Where sometimes I pray, or at least sing a psalm,
And its door’s open wide to the world and its wife
Like a beautiful page in the writings of life,
I often sit down on a bench by the stream
To peruse through my poetry, and to daydream,
As my moments read with me from poetry’s song
And in those calm moments, I feel I belong…
A purple bracelet made of beads
i found in my small box chest
while holding it only your name pops in mind
trying to figure how i feel inside.
A purple bracelet you handed me
afraid to accept i'm counting from 1 to 3
back in 6th grade can't figure the feelings
infatuation or first love, you don't tell me either.
A purple bracelet i'm afraid to wear
i just keep it, for what's reason?
it doesn't matter it's been a long time,
for the past years we both forgotten.
The purple bracelet you gave me,
it doesn't fit me anymore but i'm glad
remembering we became close
contrary of what we are now.
A waste of time! what am i doing?
reminiscing the past is not my intention
but cleaning my closet, take away wastes
and this purple bracelet... i should keep.
She loved the bracelet, the charms, the bauble, the shimmer and shine.
She kept it polished, new, like when her father gave it
to her, too long ago to remember the date. The day was
magical, to the park, to the mall, to the woods. At every stop
searching, her father searching for "The One".
Who was this special lady?
She helped look.
Often pointed one out.
Too skinny
Too tall
Too frumpy
Finally, they found "The One" and her father took her to the
woods, left her there. Why? She didn't care, she got
a new bracelet with shimmer and shine.
He bought her one charm and she wore it every day.
When her father wanted, he'd go searching for "The One"
if found, and she kept quiet about it, she got a new charm.
She loved to look at it, stare at it, see the reflections
of the faces in her charms, remembering their
visits to the woods with "The One". Every visit a
secret and she got a new charm. Until he died,
and the killing stopped and so did the charms.
Today I wore the bracelet you gave me.
Not because I like the way it fits,
Or the feel of the metal on my skin,
Not because it is you personified,
But because I just needed to have you with me,
Through out my long day,
My long, sad day.

She felt lazy; or perhaps just tired
as the rain fell, beating softy
on the window pane
the low lamp gave off a soft
but sombre glow and reflected
a quiet glint of history off
the delicate trinket bracelet
that harboured her soft ageing wrist
memories were stirred
and as she gently pulled the blanket
closer about herself
she reflected on that time
that place, that she could barely remember
but she understood that the passion
and the static that she had felt then
was still there somewhere
and as she leaned to turn off the lamp
she smiled as she heard his safe
sleeping presence.
damp morning petals
dew drops hang like charmed bracelets
glist'ning in the sun
Remember when
We went for a long walk, just you and me
Leaves falling down ever slowly
I loved spending time with you
Every moment
Walking and talking and sharing everything
Gifts are a sign of friendship and love
You take it quite seriously
But I offer you love from the heart
The jewel on your wrist only proves
That you belong to me no more
Look me in the eyes
You never take it seriously when it is just you and me
You thought you were in love but you were not
Not even close, you see
One single moment
Left me alone out of pure generosity
Huh.
Oh please
Be for real, now
Were you not a little self-seeking
Not quite ready
Do you know what love is
Look at your wrist
It is the reflection of a bitter slap in the face
