Best Calico Poems
Calico Black and Ion my trusty stallion calico black
following illusions of sunlit skies
searching for something unseen
up where cold winter wind sighs
for a moment we decide to pause
on frozen fields now snowy white
to catch a breath from our riding
thru day's light that falls at night
we're both seeking green pastures
and...

Autumn's Calico QuiltLays before me, a quilt of calico.
Deep and soft, spilt upon the woodland path.
Born of crimson kites with golden hues,
cast, as trees unburden, prepare for sleep.
Scents sweeten the sip of Autumn's blaze,
that tender nip of frosted morn.
Melding earth, sun and rain upon the wind,
made worth,...

Calico, the CatI’m Calico, the fourth, and though you haven’t asked,
I’m here to tell you what you’re thinking; so relax.

The Old Dutch...

The Calico DragonA lady I know,
Out in New Mexico,
Befriended a calico dragon.
She used to haul him around
Old Santa Fe town,
In her convertible Ford station wagon...

Blue Calico DaysA picture I'll never forget
In my heart her smile is still a lasting bless
And I can't help but think of those days
When we walked along the calico ways.
The clock, the gong and my dismay
Ticking towards the sorriest days,
And I can't stop the time running away
She...

The Flying CalicoShe leaped off the top of the refrigerator
Through the air
Only to reach over to the portable washer
Where her food was positioned right there.
Thud....

So I assumed that

Dear Calico CatDear calico cat your colors splat,
in oranges and golds and fortified blacks.
A pallet for the eyes to see your rich
fur tapestry..
The sun embraces your royalty.
How glorious is God's gift to thee....

Cardinal KillerWarm cuddle curled
Up next to me
Cardinal killer
Jasmine
Your human was six
When she asked
For a Calico
Next day
A white black and gold ball of love
Joined our family
Full grown
In cat years at least
One year older than
The one you've been
Sweet loving companion to
And now her daughter, too
Never...
