Best Churning Poems

Churning Milk1949

Every Monday after school
churning had to be done.
Milk that went sour on Sunday
was turned into butter on Monday,
as the creamery was closed
on the seventh day of the week.

Sometimes we kept it fresh
by putting the can into the pool,
where we buried it half way up,
almost...

If stars could see the sun~
slurping the grunglethorp grains
from sweat-soaked streams,
purging puddles of blurmorgris,
you’d hear the phazephonyx symphony
of my intestines churning chyme
into acidic rhymes~
releasing piled pain upon
a peezling palette of biled ballads.

But why are the whistling whirls
tangled in throttled thickets,
weeping amidst the periwinkle werifesteria,
grooving to...

Turning and Churning

How many clocks will keep turning
And inside many things may be churning
Over here there and ending up everywhere
While wondering about a cross to bare.

Not only are there words, deeds and facts
You can even come by a Book of Acts
In Bible and believe in...

Churning of holistic sunrise,
churched by God above.
Preaching of vivid truth.
Gleaming eyes see it.
No words — baby crawls
into Father’s lap.

In passing of years
fiery reds, tangerines —
lost in translation;
the tongue lies.

At death’s incline,
impending groom
holds up the globe of the sky.
Like a newborn baby
with no teeth,
an innocent smile
resumes.

Stone tossed in water,
caused ripples,
your words,
churn me inside,
though straight and simple....

There was a war between Gods and demons, 
The Hindu mythology says with reasons;
This went for long with full-fledged fights,
Each troop spending sleepless nights;
Dead remained dead and the gods did realize,
That it's not in their power, the dead to rise;
Gods approached Indira, God of the...

The celestial and terrestrial realms seen as process of creative evolution,
for the spirits nectar of immortality to gain the force of live conclusion.
Cutting eternal present into past and future to remember and to adjust,
for the soul to overcome the motions of fears and the sense...

If the dawn light
we're not being pounded into blindness
by the pelting rain,
if the earth and sky ceased
crashing into each other
churning threads of twilight
into a bitter pulp of crushed worms,
a clogging alluvium
then all must lay as it is
until a muddled earth resettles the land
for in those...

“Prairie Storm”

The air turned
Deadly still,
The trees no 
Longer swayed,
The horses neighed, 
The church bells rang

Rabbits ran 
For their caves.
Old men rushed
To close their doors.

Storm on the Rise!
Storm on the Rise!
Twister but a mile!
Be here in a while!

Hurry, grab the kids  
To the cellar quick....

My head burning!
My eyes turning!
Stomach churning!
It’s a new twist
Requiring a priest:
To God close enough to clear the mist
Prayers firing while holding my wrist
Or delivering right hand on my splitting head
Now, often seeking a pillow on any bed!

Or should I a doctor try?
To halt this that...
