Best Christopher Poems

Someone said, Hey Christopher


Someone said, “Hey Christopher,
what’s up with all this love
It seems in every poem
that is all you’re thinking of

Why are you always dreaming,
why is it you can’t see
That love is just a legend,
a made up fallacy

The world is filled with evil,
don’t you watch...

In 1492, Columbus sailed the ocean blue.
In the Pinta, Nina and Santa Marie
He found the New World,
And got spooked by a squirrel.
Thats the last you heard of C.C.

God had created the New World.
And saw that it was good.
In mystery it  remained covered,
Till Columbus came...

How Christopher Columbus
Discovered America, isn't clear.
If I'm not mistaken, the natives
Already knew it was here.

I

Hungry earthworms
Forever entombed in the bowels
Of mother earth
Awake

Defy this asceticism and prostrate
For your ultimate destiny
Lies not in the dogmatic 
Steady march along beaten footpaths

Hungry earthworms
These reminiscences of plaintive cooing
They do not placate
Those dethroned, deprived spirits
Of our fallen ancestors

Ancient dejection above
Deploy your genius here
On this demesne
Extirpate...

Who is Christopher Carson Burton? 
Who am I?

Do anybody know who I am? 
I'm just a regular guy a nobody.
A regular  guy   who grew   from   poverty. 
Someone      who was...

Searching for the meaning
Through science and space
But it’s all in a name
That his purpose was placed.
Christ-Bearer,
Care taker,
Home maker,
And more.
Loyalty, 
Love,
Is what he adores.
Adventure
And laughter
Fills his spontaneous mind,
His generous endeavors 
Are utterly sublime.
Radiant light
Breathes through his sapphire eyes
A Smile that awakens every sunrise.
Courageous and aware
His mere...

his words come trough with such fierce emotion

a strong brother with pride and devotion

he writes from his heart and when he starts

he continues till the ink runs dry

sticking to his beliefs and holding his heritage close

he injects us with another dose of reality

we tend to...

CHRISTOPHER, BLAIR AND CLAIRE

Young Blair was a shy boy, 
Somewhat a nerd,
He just simply could not make a friend,
The nursery school teacher,
Who was my mum,
Enjoyed her job so, 
She was never glum.
Christopher was the lively one in the class,
There was a seesaw and jungle gym...

oh how they don’t like it when one of their own
turns on them,
oh how they don’t like it when he gets a gun---
oh how easily they lie when their lies are exposed &
now Mr. Dorner is dead,
just like they planned.

as parallels are made with Waco...

I’ll tattoo your name across my flesh
And let the light
Penetrate the symbols of who you are
I was raised up by a soldier
A warrior, a poet
Who taught me to support the weight of the label they gave you
To be the branch that does not bough with...

At a children’s book exhibit
With amazing things on view,
I was struck to find a case
Which had the one and only Pooh.

In the same display was Eeyore,
Roo and Kanga, even Tigger;
All were gifts to son from father
Every year as he got bigger.

Now the son, Christopher Robin,
Was...

The curious case 
Of
Christopher Flaherty

Who began and started out in life with
a perfectly normal human sized brain

Born with a wise old head on his
shoulder's old before his time

That over time and age regressed

And shrunk into the size of a tiny little
pettit-poi pitt

A fair haired good...

Columbus was not the slightest bit offended
At King Ferdinand's dismissive sound
When he declared the world was round,
His was not a plan that very many comprehended.
Though the queen, Isabella, thought Chris a fine fella,
Her spouse wanted nor hair nor hide of it.
"The horizon", he snarled, "marks...

Christopher Columbus’s claims were outlandish.
Queen Isabella was truly upstandish.
The court said he would fall off the edge.
So they bombarded him with mean sledge.
The queen still gave three ships to trycandish....
