Best Cheeping Poems


Premium Member Wakey Wakey

Red rooster is crowing, perched on a split rail fence,
In the bloom of a rosy dawn, when all nature is tense.
In the chocolate colored trees, of the emerald leaves,
Baby bluebirds are cheeping, to the spicy warm breeze.
The flowers bob and curtsey, with many colorful cheers,
In a love affair that's endured, ages of sunlit years!
Purple shadows are drifting, the world partially awake,
And it's still a shadowy mystery, what destiny will make.
Perky squirrels are scampering, the sun is on his way,
Sweet life is beginning again, for it's a brand new day!

Premium Member The Color of Music

Baby birds cheeping in treetops high, mellow yellow,
Whippoorwills' song when even is nigh, red sunset glow,
Raucous crows in the hot noon sun, deep orange gold,
Humming bees in blazing wildflowers, dark green wold!

Seagulls' elegant glide over pounding surf, royal blue,
Crickets calling through a summer night, a black revue,
Loons hooting across transparent lake, twilight purple,
And cardinal chirps lonely songs, in pink crape myrtle!

Parrots squawk away the sunny hours, of forests green,
Nightingales sing forever and a day, white moonbeams,
Humming bird emblazons the peony bush, pretty pink,
Goldfinch trills on desert bush, as orange sun slinks!

Premium Member Wisdom From the Wheezing Woods

Listen to the wisdom, oozing from the wheezing  woods, 
Whimpering in euphony, far from the bustling boulevards,
Crooning, mumbling mellow chirping soothing strains. 
The warbling of the warbles, buzzing of the bumblebees, fetching sputtering riddles! 

Listen to the cryptic hooting, hissing, howling of the forest critters, 
The whooshing weald is whistling, winking, whooping as living being! 
Twittering its' silent sagacious saga when the ringing roots are entwining, 
Gusting, the swooshing symphony of the smashing symbiosis. 

The seeds are throbbing spasmodically into mature trees;
Sheltering the myriads of native wild species. 
The wild blooms in seclusion are trilling in the tranquil breeze, 
Twiddling and twirling in oblivion, invigorating the dying dandelions. 

There is no hubbub; discrimination, feeble and strong, old and new, 
Even cheeping competing species  sloshing in consonance are clinking in gleeful communion!
 
The flapping, fluttering forest is clicking, caressing each other, 
To enliven, the stup of the felled trees for hundred of years. 

The mother trees are murmuring the lulling lullabies, nurturing their saplings. 
They know not, the survival of the fittest, the gluttony! 
In the thicket, there is no cacophony, but mere 
Mellifluous  rumbling of  dribbling polyphony!


On the Farm

In the fields crops are growing
On the roof a rooster is crowing

In the yard hens are clucking 
In the paddock the stallion is bucking

Near the back door baby chicks are cheeping
In the pond frogs are leaping

From the pasture donkeys bray
And the lively horses neigh

The barn cats are slowly creeping
While the farmer’s wife does housekeeping

In the barn cows are mooing
And in the rafters doves are cooing

The frisky collie barked
As the tractor is parked

In the pen the pigs grunt
Except for the cute little runt

By the pond the duck quacks
While the coon hound tracks

Premium Member daydream again

whilst at my desk i sit sleeping

the boss sneaks up behind creeping

lulling without care

birdsongs fill the air

when stop you fool stop that cheeping.

Premium Member The Miracle of Flight

I watched in awe the laboring tenants of the birdhouse I'd made,
And for their family devotion, they (and I) have been amply repaid!
Mr. and Mrs. Wren became the proud parents of a couple of eggs,
And unto them were born two chicks with big mouths and wobbly legs!

The pair began building their cozy abode along about the first of May.
I watched from my patio as they stashed bits of grasses, feathers and hay!
They'd rest now and then 'tweeting' each other on the porch of their dwelling,
And not unlike we uncouth mortals, I sensed a bit of familial yelling!

Bye and bye, my ears heard two little birdies faintly a-cheeping,
And from the entryway I saw two little bobble heads shyly peeping!
Their wide-open mouths kept Mr. and Mrs Wren flying to and fro,
To fill cavernous craws with who knows what to help them to grow!

Then one bright morn I was privileged to see a wonder of God's Creation!
One little fellow emerged from the nest and paused with some hesitation.
Then, into the rising sun it flew from its perch - what a beautiful sight!
My soul was filled with elation - I had just witnessed the miracle of flight!

Premium Member I Have Walked Through Hell But I Didn'T Stay There

Satan tormentor of my dreams;
Deep into that darkness avalanche;
On that day my soul grew in ambers;
Lit on fire condemning---
Once upon this brilliants midnight silent;

I confess between you and me;
Both profess being ungodly;
But you no longer get my praise;
I now relinquish my chains;
Bound to hell only you not me, Satan GET  THEE  BEHIND ME…

I awoke and flung the HEET;
Instead I uncovered the sunshine heaven’s lined peace;
It threw its Satan’s ghost against the winds
Chaotic demons through which came sweltering, sweltering, sweltering…
They are perfumed from unseen kinds;
And the storms never shaping time;

But in the fact that it was cheeping;
Take thy static from out my heart peeping;
You warned me about the upstart;
Get out, Satan Get out;
Deep into that darkness twisting;
While I pondered, geometrical and existing;

And the downdrafts never tapping;
It was happening, just believe it-it’s happening;
Remembering many benign, crooked descents;
It threw its ghost against the disturbances;
The dynamic brought such sorrow;

Death shall bring slopes, fallen shadows; 
I have dreamed further of the infernos;
I ask God this is not where I want to go;
Deep into that darkness ramping
Suddenly I see a light…
I hold on to Jesus tight;

That moment my soul grew benevolent;
I walked through HelL,
but I didn’t stay there;
Hallelujah! Heaven now awaits

Peace and Tranquility

Sitting amongst the heat of the sun,
listening to the various harmonious sounds,
the bird's cheeping and chirping,
the wasp's buzzing,
takes me to a tranquil place,
the flight of the fanciful bird,
tiny little creature's,
beetles's, ladybird's, ant's,
inhibit one's land,
if only we were all by the sand,
that would make my dream land.

Spring, Winter Rolls By

A series of cheeping notes 
followed by chatter calls 
welcoming a sunny spring morning 

In the afternoon, the sky turns black
twilight of sun orange shades
heavy hail falling from the heaven
winds screaming in its gale force

Quivering feathers, wet and drenched
blanketing a monotonous chirrup
finding shelter under leaves 

Arising smell of the heavenly primrose 
lavenders the air dewdrops upon rose gold
In a chain of daisies warmly circles
In the sunlight of spring births

An effervescent voice cuts through
the parting dark clouds joining in
the long bubbling churrs of a song

Flower of all flowers, my garden Queen
When I pick you as my rose
Every color in you beautiful
Blooming red blushes pink crowning petals

Scepter of stellar beauty
Newborn flowers dance to the rays
Carnations shade the color of your chalice 
A glance that holds a thousand in a split of a second

A Collaborated Poem with Liam McDaid

Ali

I found my love in granules,
In father of manuals,
On 13th of annual,
In teacher of Samuel.

I am drunk, still awake to drink his elixir of love.
I pass out, and return to life like flying dove.
In his literature, I am the best of the buff.
In lonely cold nights, I escape with his love as ****.

Kill my activity,
Stole my creativity,
Bury my selectivity,
Stop my festivity,

Even vanish my identity,
In your worst nightmares.

I will be peeping and cheeping “ALI”

When the first person sat,
Then another came to bat,
Third the mischievous rat.

Then he came,

The brother of personality,
The origin of principality,
The epitome of functionality,
Having 11 as plurality,
The servant of immortality.

Come do repeat Mesum,
I am obsessed with his rum,
Cut my tongue or make me dumb,
Till my last breath I will not succumb.

Suicide is against the law,
Come and kill me and make me saw.

My Goal, My Destiny, My Station “ALI”  

My Insanity leads me to getting called mad,
I am overwhelmed instead of being pale and sad,
I am supreme, having him as my master and lad,
My treasure of heart is out of your capacity to add.

He is not God, I believe in his Lord,
He is Creator’s Instrument 2nd Chord,
He is almighty’s best accord,
Beware of the double-edged sword.

Oh Superior of the men, 
Oh host of the then,
Oh authority of the when,
Oh pen of the pen.

If I see anyone from first to fourteenth,
I will say “ALI”


-Daniel Rizvi

Premium Member Walking In My Garden

WALKING IN MY GARDEN

When I walk through my garden late in the day
I hear the drone of a buzzing bumble bee
What wonders I see as I go on my way
And baby birds cheeping in the old oak tree
Yes, those are the wonders I hear and see

To See Hawthorn On the Summer Hedges

to see hawthorn on the Summer hedges
bluebirds on the ledges of the low lying sill
 near the old cotton mill
bird song fills the air, chirping cheeping, caterpillars creeping.,
through the leaves of green 
glistening in the summer sun.

Premium Member Withdrawal

During enduring winter rain
the small bird cheeping

his only wish of certain warmth
ducks out of the sheeting rain - each
 
grain aimed an icy dart poignantly
tipped with a hardening past -

into the chimney duct through
too-small a hole for use again,

tweaking his wish to certain flames,
some sorta luck, and, suddenly drained,

              to sync with the rain

Premium Member Strolling with my Love

 Taking a stroll through the undergrowth
Back to where you and me pledged our troth
To love each other, come rain or snow
In the forest that we both love so.

It's glorious this time of the year
When the wild flowers start to appear 
And trees are proudly sprouting fresh leaves 
In a dainty dance upon the breeze.

We hold hands as the undergrowth’s rough
Which causes walking to become tough
Not that we need to have an excuse
When we’re free to be out on the loose.

Upon the trees birds chirp cheerfully 
Cheeping in avian harmony
Squirrels foraging undergrowth store 
Nuts they have buried on days before.
 
We spot young bunnies taking first hops
The farmers who're preparing their crops 
In the distant not too faraway
Working happily throughout their day.

So pleased that we came upon this place
To delight in nature's wondrous grace 
Appreciating scenes such as this 
That we were all given as a gift.

Premium Member Little Big Things

Shield of dispersed clouds on the sky surface
Bright sun shining at its base
Whistling leaves in the soft morning winds
Cheeping birds enjoying their flights
Curious squirrel scurrying on a house wall
Holding something big in her mouth which looked like a ball
Flapping and circling of a target searching Raven pair
Chased away by an alert, smart Northern Flicker 
View of the lake from a summit
Revealing shades of blue with greenery in the surroundings
A big yellow butterfly with black spots
Hanging out with a bee on flower tops
Treasure of a pink ball found on the way by the Labrador
Contentment and bliss felt by both through earth’s simple nature..
