Best Camel Poems


Premium Member A Damsel Or a Camel

Why drowning when there's
the ability to swim in me?
Why sleeping in the cold woods
with a match box in my Jacket
and an Axe below my head?
Why the self condemnation
when I'm a billion miles ahead of a billion?
What exactly do I see in my inner mirror?
Is Life embracing or pointing a finger at me?

I see a pretty one of huge significance
with effective duties like an Angel.
But also, I see the ugly one
dust to sand, stone to rock
that's just its living sequel.

I view a perspective
rough but sweet; challenging but interesting
which is exactly my gospel.
But then, I see them as temptations
and tests with no ability to repel.
I notice when walking through red coals
I never let my tears be my Life's panel
but the submission of my adaptation becomes so parallel.

I'm mind blowing and noticeable
like a newly-sewed apparel.
But day and night, I posses a tag with
just one label.

No matter the task to stay beautiful
nothing stops that quest to excel
but I see a limitation to 
just a specific ordered function
like the ringing bell.

I'm staying elegant and attractive
making all long to be part of my counsel
but my usefulness, worth and confidence
no self awareness to propel.

Beginning as crude 
coming out as a refined Jewel
but still, reality seems so cruel.
What exactly is my mirror saying?
Is my Life that of a Damsel or a Camel?
This, I just cannot tell!

Premium Member To a Camel

To a two humped camel
She must seem really odd
For her humps are both displaced
on the front of her strange bod

They must throw her off balance
as she walks on just two feet
They're sure to get in the way
Whenever she try's to eat

It also seems distracting
As she goes about her day
They're bouncing bouncing bouncing
In a most peculiar way

Why are those fellows drooling
As they watch her walking by
I'm sure the two humped camel
He must be wondering why

Taking My Camel To Town

I’m taking my camel to town,
do you got a problem with that?
I’m gonna get him some fresh water
and clean provender
What cha say,
they don’t sell to his kind?!
He’s the finest mottled brown,
this side of the Sahara desert sand
This camel got the blackest spots
	        mixed in
Proof that the sun
	calls him his friend
While I’m in town,
I’m gonna buy my beautiful animal
a white straw hat
Do you have a problem with that?


My Sweet Camel Toe, Where'D You Go

Where'd you go?
oh where did you go
my precious camel toe?

played me like a fiddle
with your bubbly middle
you're such a skanky hoe
but I love you so
camel toe
camel toe

we had magic
we had fire
purple sweatpants my desire
come back camel toe

victory! camel toe
you're the villain 
you're the winner
with your puffy 
wedgied center

camel toe
camel toe

you're my sassy hoe
you're my Christmas snow
gone like cold wind blows
with your return
my member grows

I miss my camel toe
baby 
where'd you go?
sweaty sweetie 
camel toe

The Bedouin's Song

I'm just a bedouin: 
I live in a tent - 
Cozy an' fair
Its fabric woven 
From rough goat-hair- 
A shady cover 
In the summer 
A rain-proof shelter 
In the winter 

My possessions: 
A single garment - a loose black robe 
I call a thobe 
A pair of worn out sandals 
A coffee kit 
And other little things 
I put in a sack 
That may not fit 
With countrysiders' appetites 
Or urbanites'

My homeland: 
All this infinite expanse 
Of deep beige sands 

My sole companion: 
A faithful camel 
Who carries me 
And all my stuff 
Together we cross the endless desert 
And when I sing
Some cameleer song
He gets so light 
Out of delight
And makes as if to fly 
Towards the sky

Camel Travel

There was an old camel from Bahrain
who sought adventures far off in Spain.
He made plans to sightsee
and ordered cups of tea
then danced the flamenco on the plane.


Paul's Camel Tahli

Paul's camel Tahli loved  Dr. Oetker
                            Mugged for the camera of  Baker
                                   And went out for a date
                                With Oetker's daughter Kate
                          He was out of date as a love maker

Wish I Was the Camel

Wish I Was A Camel
( Children's song words and music by Joan Donnelly Ellis)

 Oh I wish I was one of the camels who carried the wise men
 To our Savior Jesus born in Beth-le-hem
 You know I betcha the camel was a very spesis amnal
 The one and only camels known to man and mamal
 To carry across the desert sands the Three Wise Men 
 Oh I wish I was the camel who followed the star
 To the manger in Bethlehem with the wise men from afar
 How cool to be carrying  frankincense, myrrh and gold 
 To give to Baby Jesus, the Good Shepherd from God's fold

The Camel

The camel can retain much fluid
But this I bet you knew
If you were to join him for a drink
Would he ask one hump or two

I Lost My Camel

I lost my camel and now I am on foot
Why couldn't I just stay  where I was put
I lost my ride now I might die
Why was it all because I told a lie
I really don't know why I have walked so long I think I see a pie
Help me someone this is what I need I think I just need some more weed
Well if this is a dream I see then don't wake me until I get a drink
I think what I need indeed is still out there let us wonder among the sand and the sun
Until someone calls for us to come into the shade and celabrate maybe have a prade

Ode To the Myrrh Tree

So the tree stood in the centre of the desert
mangled by winds of change and truth of joy
chains of dust and torrents of rare rain 


Burnt black and senseless by an 
unrelenting Sun of nightmare beauty
orange was the sand of scorpions
orange was the mirage of miracles
orange was her veil of innocence 


As the tree stank of heavenly myrrh
itched to pour its oil over orange
nippled breasts and buttocks
stroke curves and carves
of luminous beauty with its
ancient branches of stony bark
as beetles made holy love in its 
crevices of dark deep velvet depth


And the mangled magic of the myrrh
stood short and stumped and watched
the breath of a timeless desert
slow movements of noble camels
with long thick lashes speaking of
magnificent slowness in the lick of lick
a lip in a lip


Tree of a thousand loves
sprinklings in sparkles spaced
over a tent of chiffon on sand
slithering with patterned serpents
and eyes of dark magic, of long 
limbs all in One
twine and twine and grow together 
as all become One 
with myrrh and magic 
heavy beads of sweat and
amber laugh and scream 


Moments of a tree of ugly love
as ugly melts into vacant beauty
irresistible wordless wrinkles ageless 


Deep furrows of sweet scent
sent desert creatures weeping
to smiling stars as a tree of life 
stood stock still to imbibe 
eternal myrrh itself

Sammy the Camel

He looked so lethargic sitting there in the parking lot of the oldest city in the world. I was perplexed as to why they harnessed him and tortured him in the cruel hot sun. I am no veterinarian of desert animals, but I knew something wasn't right. My friend didn't want me to ride the camel. Neither did I!

They were persistent, unwavering; they just wanted to see me smile. Before I headed up to the Mount of Temptation to pray I got a horseback ride from this camel. Oh his poor rickety legs and arthritic spine. If you were able to read his eyes you would have seen that I am a tad bit overweight. That poor camel!

I begged the men to give Sammy some ice cream when we were done for all the abuse they put him through. Sammy's smile was hideous and in between his teeth it looked like glue. My heart was crushed, but what was I to do? About 15 minutes later the irritated camel tried to bite a young girl dressed in blue. She jumped about 5 feet to escape her demise. He wanted to call it a day. The handlers just wanted to earn their keep. 

I used to feel sorry for all the stray emaciated cats here in Israel. They prance around the city meowing all through the night. Poor cats!...Now I have made room in my heart for the camels too!

Camel Calls, She Saw Hee Haw

....My *itch ?
Now, whether you believe
It or not ? Your ass is mine how ironic
Peter piper this ancient viper: playing it's hand
Spinning numbers in a foreign land ? Iconic super phonic 
Hypnotized mesmerized robotic time on a mission from prince pillar
Their cyber space thriller blowing out these candles is everybody, here ?
Rent the tent her species his flee shes kong's balls inside love's stall a donkey.

Sir Lancelot and the Camel

There was a camel that trots a lot,
He trotted his way from Camelot;
With tasseled fringe and jeweled saddle,
He fiorded rivers with a golden paddle.
Up the dunes and across the sands,
He traversed all the way to Arab lands;
Where there is no water to pump,
So he carries it in his camel’s hump.

On the way from Camelot,
The rider found that he forgot
All the jewels and precious things,
Borrowed with haste from Hottentot kings;
So he turned his camel around,
For what was lost had not been found;
Then he steered his beast toward the east,
Where men of China drink and feast.

The man who came from Camelot,
Sat on his camel and smoked some pot;
He puffed with need on the evil weed,
Till his lungs were filled with empty greed.
He spent his days looking glazed,
And what he smoked caused some delays.
But the man on the camel that liked to trot,
His name of fame was Sir Lancelot.

Now Sir Lancelot was very hot,
And he never found a shady spot;
But he had a drink from the camel’s hump,
By using his hand to pump the lump;
And all the while the camel was panting,
While Sir Lancelot was loudly ranting;
And the words he spoke were poppycock,
All the way back to Camelot.

Unopposed To Camel Toes

Unopposed Camel Toes ( Mono tetra) (Adult)


While watching you promoting clothes
That do away with camel toes
I had misgivings, I suppose
and these are those, and these are those.

It's not so now, but used to be
teen boys would learn anatomy
by watching surreptitiously
hints they would see, hints they would see.

Now girls at ten wear red lipstick
with black mascara brushed on thick
as though they want to turn a trick.
I think that's sick. I think that's sick.

But women out of puberty
who choose to dress outrageously
can make that choice it seems to me.
They should be free, they should be free.

When girls wear tramp stamps on their backs
and see-through clothes are sold at Sak's
and plastic surgeons augment racks
You should relax. Phoenix, relax.

When guys shoved socks into their pants
their meager manhood to enhance
they hoped to heck they'd draw a glance.
they took a chance, they took a chance.

For those of us who only watch
I don't like ideas that would botch
a camel toe define a crotch.
A lovely notch. A lovely notch.

When street-walkers show camel toes
it's advertising 'cus they're "hos"
and one's defined slit clearly shows
just where it goes, just where it goes.
