Best Cabin Poems

In the shadowed maw of the forest deep, 
Where whispers of the night do creep, 
There lies a tale, a chilling draft, 
That sends shivers down the spine, so deft.

A cabin old, with windows like eyes, 
Staring into the abyss of skies, 
Stood silent, save...

The year was 1680 and I was travelling,
            I sat in the carriage looking out the window;
The coachman was driving the horses quickly,
      As a storm was approaching us...

My cabin is pretty in the early morning
When the dew lights up on the grass and leaves
And when the sun shines high in the great blue sky
I can see the crops rippling in the gentle breeze
All the things I planted with a plow and hoe
Wheat,...

An Abandoned Pioneer Cabin

By Elton Camp

There it is, way off to the right side
A home where a family did reside
I mightn’t have seen as I drove by
Except a chimney still stood high

I wonder who, with labor and care
Took the time to construct it there
The best...

Take me back to the cabin, cabin in my mind
The place we go to be alone, I need cabin time. 
Only we can make it happen, we know where to go
Take me back, oh take me back, I need you so

The look you give me...

I can’t help but wonder, about the blunder, of building a one room log cabin,
Where man and wife, lived a private life, ‘til kids became real, not imagined

With no partitions, or new additions, you’d think their sex life would run ashore.
But they both knew, how...

Can't go out
Weather won't permit
Too cold, too wet, too slippy
Dressed up warm 
I clean and cook
And wash and iron and polish
Listen to the radio
Despair at the news
Hum to the music
Escape from the world
Enter boredom
Slowly at first
Then snaking into the psyche
Banging with frustration
Screaming at the world
I...

A cabin built on the edge of the wood,
Standing alone next to a listless rill.
Near ear shot where the great white oak once stood,
Atop a hammock, some say is a hill.

Standing supreme on a warm summer's eve,
Strong gainst' storms and nature's retribution.
Time the bearer of...

The whoosh of the wild winter wind
wrapped me within swift swishing swirls
whipping me on till there it stood,
a lonely cabin in the wood.

The shrill shriek of the screech owl split 
the whoosh of the wild winter wind
and he swooped about the cabin,
stalking his prey with...

as i look out Buck's cabin door,
i see new and old huddled 
together on the ground,
pinecones thrown all around,
a young bird being hugged by 
an old world, full of embrace;
it hardly makes sense to my slow ear
and yet, i know it is full of God's...

A cabin by the lake would be a dream come true.
Large picture windows would bring nature into view.
I will sit outside on a porch that wraps around,
Surrounded by a serene mountain lake, playground.

Skylights will allow me to see God’s creations.
I’ll enjoy wondrous tranquil accommodations.
Imagine deer...

Your flannel shirt hung on the back of the chair
Your boots sit on the floor
I walk to the window,breathe in the air
How could I ask for more?
The sun is rising on the mountains below
The whipper wills they sing
The little cabin was built with love among...

left naked in former woods...

Not sure that this qualifies as a true Haiku...

The entrance to the cabin is covered with pearly white snow as we walk in.

We quickly take off our ski gear and race to the shower as you call out I'm going to win.

I turn on the shower and then lift you to my hips...

Just as bees squeeze like watermelon seeds
Spit across apricot fields
My wife and I on Friday
Join the lines of highways up north

Pulled by hilltops to the Leelanau blue sky

Where lakes stir in the wind at the citrus rims
Of wine valleys below
And cherry orchards blossom in row...
