Best Comin Poems

Comin Thro the Rye
by Robert Burns
modern English translation/interpretation by Michael R. Burch
 
Oh, Jenny's all wet, poor body,
Jenny's seldom dry;
She's draggin' all her petticoats
Comin' through the rye.
 
Comin' through the rye, poor body,
Comin' through the rye.
She's draggin' all her petticoats
Comin' through the rye.
 
Should a...

"Steamboat is a-comin' 'round the bend!"
My! Oh my! The wonders it might portend,
As it stopped by sleepy towns along the Missisip',
Dodgin' stumps and wayward rafts on its monthly New Awlins trip!

Its arrival was heralded by the town drunk who had nothin' else to do,
And the...

"Hyar she comes!  The weekly stagecoach is a-comin' to old Santa Fe!"
The driver cracked his whip and blowed his klaxon to herald the way!

The weekly arrival of the stagecoach was cause fer raucous celebration!
The town's ne'er-do-wells found another excuse fer excess inebriation!

The excited citizens...

I can smell it in the air. Almost taste it
Before me lies a solid gray horizon
Dark clouds hastily trip across the sky
Orange streaks peek through rents in their fabric
Storms comin!!!

Anchored near the shore a restless dinghy
Rocks nervously in anticipation
Rolling thunder whispers in the distance
Flickers of...

Summer slowly slips away.
Days are gettin' cold.
But, Fall is really beautiful,
when  the leaves turn red and gold!

I love the feel of Autumns breeze,
so gentle on my face.
The sun- drenched warmth of balmy days,
just nothing can replace!

The seasonal winds grow stronger.
Dry leaves will fall and...

I shoulda seen it coming, but blind I was with love
Had I been cautious, I could have given it a shove

comin’ clean with “jesus”

ever see the footage of Aileen
“comin’ clean with “jesus?”
when she was rambling about 
being “under the devil” &
passing through all the statistics
dealing with how rare a possibility
it would have been for her to 
get off death row?

do you think you’ll ever see...

Hurry, hurry Jesus

Hurry, hurry Jesus

Hurry, hurry Jesus

Hurry, hurry 
you better not fear

Don't delay your soul on display
Make the wrong choices you could be omitted
It's only by His grace, that you are forgiven
Repent, receive...

Storms coming,
saw the angry red sky.
Went out back on the decking
a hummingbird was
dodging around  but there was no feeder,
threw it away when she left.

Winds up, storms comin,
farm gates creaking and swinging
and that old oak cross-bar is real heavy
I made it that way.
Dogs rattled
the cat...

There’s a change a comin’
I can feel it getting through
That we can love each other
And it’s all up to me and you

Kindness costs nothing 
In this old crazy world
Of war and hate crimes a happening
But love will be truly upheld.
