Best Compared Poems

Summertime, summertime
And homemade vegetable soup
This is no place for fruity loops
Only foods from the garden that rhyme

Oh! Give us soup in the summertime
One writes tomatoes, another squash
Another corn with peppers by gosh
End with dessert a pie from lime

Summertime, summertime
Oh! Summertime
Shoestring budget on a dime
Carrots, potatoes,...

Seeing sculpture compared to painting
Contrasted imagery alluding to victory
With victor being both man and animal
Subservience dominates both images
Bare head and feet noticeable to viewer
A horse head raised; the other lowered
Who are these men and beasts?
Smug facial expression common to both
Though can a horse hold airs...

Compare I don't dare 
in my world we drive a car 
til the wheels fall off... 
then we continue on the rims.. 
So should I compare,I don't dare. 
I never measure  
myself against worse 
Because then I could run out of gas. 
all because...

Kiss me until the stitches on my heart dissolve, 
and I forget what it feels like to breathe without lungs.
Touch my skin until your fingertips warm my muscles,
and help my blood run smoothly
Your apartment is cold, but your eyes are colder;
emptier too.
Your hands held nothing...

A poem based upon the quote:

"Now is next to nothing compared to where I've been."
    -Rod McKuen


Lately there have been chances not taken…memories
unforgotten…tearing my soul into tiny pieces rushing 
my beliefs toward yesterday’s blues….but…
-now is next to nothing compared to where I've...

My love, to you, I think tis fair
That all the world is thus compared
In evenings eye the stringy ray
In mornings stir the colloquial way
Which nature flaunts her sallow cheeks
Or bats a blushing eye indeed.
For in the call of natures wake
Which sun and moon do both...

I feel like I’m nothing when I’m compared to you
It's as if I don't exist
Maybe that’s a good thing
It'll make things much easier when you break my fragile heart
It'll make it easier for me to fall apart
I’ll be left alone to pick up the pieces...

            "mine breathe" says the scop
        filled with verve 'bout love's passion

I crave the taste of chocolate 
And
The aroma of coffee as i wake
Indulge in the essence of wine
Clams to me are also devine
For these are all special cravings of mine
But
Compared to you there's nothing to desire more
For you,
I covet, 
Repine,
Salivate, in the most immeasurable way
There's...

MEET ME AT MC D’S  IN 15 MINUTES, YEAH RIGHT

It’s not the hating
It’s not the debating
It’s not what Satan is always creating
It’s the waiting
When unqualified comfort will come
And yes, I agree you can call me dumb
I should have said no but rather I said...

Compared to Bungling Idiots

To my poems pretty soon should be immune
And to receive comments I must impugn
Your delightful mind to become more diligent
Trying to find where party platforms went.

What if I put in thumb pulling out a plumb
Could you make a morsel or maybe crumb
For...

Hello…could you hear me out?
Please love me and forgive me for once
All the people are dancing around…
Hate to say it, but it seems like you’re smarter than me
Play my favorite songs on the radio…

So, come over here…you wanna hear a secret?
I’m gonna whisper the truth
I...

You gave me hope in mind, girl…
You gave me a feeling of contentment
I need to take a break at times
I need to see you tonight….
I want a buff body, but I’m as weak as a poorly-made house

So, come over here…you wanna hear a secret?
I’m gonna...

Compared to me there is no one better 
That can break you down with so much pleasure
That can make you say that I'm the best in every way
Compared to me you wont there will never be
anyone that can make you weak like me
Compared to me...

Longer Compared to Yours

So if I was such a great scholar
Why do I always hoot and holler
In every poem I have you read
Do you think they fulfill a need?

Are my poems mindless and disgraceful?
Or did become drastic and distasteful
And may even part of a missing...
