Best Bumps Poems
.
Unexpectedly
his miniature hand
bathed my arm
Attached to it
the query
“Pops”
“Yes son
I love you too”
And his giggles raced on
I don't have to tell you,
You know.
You do have to tell me,
'cause I don't.
Razor's edge.
Stand your ground.
Or maybe we could talk it out?
Women know stuff

GOOSE BUMPS

I'd thought I found eternal rest
cold hands folded, still, on my chest
but I hear echoes from the past
the trumpet's sound, fierce bugle blast
Coming alert, I look around
burst out laughing, see the sound
source - back to sleep with merry wave
at geese, goose-stepping on my grave ....
Alan McAlpine Douglas
Whenever I see a mother cry
My skin covers itself in goose-bumps
My eyes well up my throat feels choked
I really can't bare such raw intense grief
I wish I could help them
Save them
Take away the aching pain
Wipe away broken tears
A grieving mother never heals I know this as true
Her days will be forever cradleing what memories remain
She will never hold her head the same
Her heart filled with despair
An emptiness one will never truly know
Unless you have had to let go..
You asked me the other day
why I cared
about a wretched soul like you
And all that I really could say
is that you needed a friend like me
Who would stand beside you on any
given
day to remind you that I do care about you
And that I support you no matter what you do
Because I have been where you are today
and I want to remind you that there will be
many bumps in the road in your journey
So don’t beat yourself up so bad
and
keep hurting yourself like you have
Because I don’t ever
want anything
bad to happen to you
Just be thankful that you
have someone like me
That will stand by your side to help you
get through the bumps
in the road because I do care about you
She wore yo ho hose
With pumps on her toes
Which helped to give her a little lift
Along the bar she would pirouette
Her auburn hair bunned in a net
And her face rather flushed from the port
If you took her for a spin
It wasn't in your car you'd been
But a quick quick slow across the floor
And when at last she'd had enough
She might pick up smooth or rough
Most often one with his nose aglow
They would trip back to his place
Each with a smile upon their face
And discover how the key went in the door
But one time it wouldn't go
So her garments were on show
When she clambered up the ivy round the back
Her pickled beau then fell asleep
While she slipped down the stairs so steep
And a new escort took him off to a cell
What a shock when he awoke
I can't repeat the words he spoke
Suffice to say his next trip was to court
Not the lady in this tale
But in handcuffs feeling frail
Where he was fined a rather mighty sum
One press man who was there
Made his notes with all due care
Saying 'Here's the bright spark of a dull day'
Is there a moral to this tale
Maybe just that when your nose is pale
It picks up on trouble more than when it's glowing red
And the lady in the pumps
Poor girl she awoke with such bumps
From bouncing down all those steps the night before…

cool
breezes
soft ruffle
of Goose feathers
an idle instinct
reawakened
bids adieu
to water's
chill

the bumps in the night spark my curiosity,
evil things always have excited me,
is it the thought its darker than me?
or just the thought of bleeding on my knees
the absent from light are a part of me
just like being human is my species,
the thought of deep dark creatures
horde and fowl,
spilling from hell screaming like hell
high were the lights is not my concern
the the things i have done will keep me beaneath.
it's not that im scared or nervous or filled with dread ,
its how much i will enjoy sawing off heads
no repercussions insight
the darkness brings my inner artist to life.
the tormentor they scream as i devour there souls
young,old there all Delicious,
reigning in hell will be oh so magnificent
Life can lead us in all directions
throw a curve we do not foresee
sometimes we go with the flow
other times we do not know
how we handle it can effect us
we could follow the curve with ease
or it can bend and twist us to our knees
sometimes fate plays a roll
takes us on a path we did not know
so as we bend and twist our way
all things have a beginning and end one day.

Bumps in the Road
Life is going sweet
Life is going good
When you finally got the beat
Your a stick in the mud
Don't let it bring your down
You still got the whole song
You'll make it all good some how
You can still go on
Don't let anybody tell you
That your going to fail
Don't let them tell you what to do
Don't stop when you break a nail
Sitting in my car waiting for Cathie
My eyes darting to and fro
Shorter than short shorts wherever I look
My poor heart is beating so
Is this gonna continue year after year
Where will this madness end
Not soon I hope, this is heaven on earth
Lovin' it my very good friends
Do they know what havoc they is a-causing
Have run off the road more than once
When the real short shorts are in concert with
Two lovely wee bumps up front
Seems like an obsession of a sexual nature
It's just a normal male reaction
Promise I'm harmless, well most of the time
Till exposed to this innocent distraction
I can honestly say I've still got an eye
For girlies with those sweet wee bums
Just admire the beauty, not a dirty old man
Oh the female form, yum, yum!
Sitting in my car waiting for Cathie
My eyes darting to and fro...

Her bumps in front are plain to see
You should be ashamed for thinking rude
You have no idea what I'm referring to, do you
Bet you thought I was talking about boobs!
I assume most people would think the same
Guess I was hasty and a little bit tough
Strange how people react to certain words
They're jaded and overrun with this stuff!
Well there's a real innocent explanation
That'll make you smile with delight
Her bumps in front are on her Lexus coupe
Ran into an old lady on a bike!
