Best Compleat Poems


Premium Member A Foodie's Love Sonnet

Bowled over, kneading you, feeling sub-lime
from my head tomatoes. Hear my heart beet!
Eggcited, wonton you olive the thyme.
Donut you carrot all for me at yeast?

You’re one in a melon, sweet sugar pie,
forbidden fruit I find so appeeling.
Cherry on the cake, apple of my eye.
Has there bean love? Don’t berry the feeling.

It’s a big dill and takes two to mango.
I’d sacri-rice all because you compleat me.
You oat to love me. Peas, love miso!
Just food for thought. Chew that fat with your tea.

I have so mushroom in my heart for you.
A pizza your heart? Say yes, honey - DEW!

One Wish

i imagined finding a bottle in the desert sea 
all encased with jewels it mystified me
i open up the bottle 
and out comes a puff of smoke 
it swirled all around
but did not make me choke
then out of no where 
a form began to appear
it was you, my jennie
popped up from nowhere 
you are my magic jennie 
with power to grant my every wish
you wait for my command 
but truly i am thoughtless
you are my wish 
and nothing else would do
when it comes to wishing
i have no more to do
you and nothing else would satisfy me
you and nothing else would compleat my dream
you and nothing else would i write into this scene
you and nothing else would i make my queen
thoughtless yet am i 
to all material things
your presence is my answer
to my sweetest dreams
your beauty is my treasure
such a wonderous thing
your spirit is my light
to you i'll always cling
so here to you i'll say
and lets be on our way
you don't have to be a jennie
just be mine everyday

The Hearts Warmth

It is the gift
when none was expected
It is providing those things
for those who are neglected

It is a word
when feelings are down
A pat on the back
though you fell on the ground

Joining forces
with those rejected
Helping compleat
so work is perfected

The hearts warmth 
is in sharing a game
The hearts warmth 
is in giving a name

The hearts warmth
an emotional theme
A feeling of comfort
receiving an offering


Name That Tune

you light up my life
and have made me compleat
the one i would kiss 
each day of the week
a year and three months
to this very day
i spoke to you last
before you went away
many tears have sence fallen
and screams i let out
just like laughter
uncontrolably out of my mouth
my greif scourges me
every where i went
yet to others i looked content
each day i kiss your picture
and say i love you to your name
i guess they're the thing i do 
to keep from going insane
all these thing must have added up
to a small message from the God i trust
early early this  morning 
after i woke up a music box
played just a few notes
you light up my life
were the notes that it played
shocked and awed i was dismayed
but when i found the box that had played
it was the one i gave you 
because of the song it played



(This is a true story)

To What Do I Owe the Pleasure

to this life i live
for every breath i am 
forced to breeth
to this existance
where i have a voice
to the places 
where i have no choice
to the reasons 
that i toil
for the child
that was not spoiled
to intentions that
motivated my invention

what am i ?
who am i ?
and where am i going?

what's guiding my feet to
where they are going
what guides my thinking
to what i am knowing
what inspires my voice and hand
to speak and write what i am

what does my future and past  say
about my today
and if i die will my mission
be compleat
did i say enough
did i write enough
did i do enough

to who and what do these things matter

to me? what do i have?
to God? oh God what have i done?
to the world? yes, i left my mark
maybe a bruse but not a scar

i reached for the stars
climbed the mightest mountian
and gave 110%
and you say my reward
is with in me

all i can say is 
please don't ask me 
to do it again
i couldn't put myself throught it
except to know that 
next time will be harder than this time
that what didn't kill me last time
might kill me this time

has my spirit been broken 
or my gold been refined
how strong do i look 
brokendown crying

zero is a number
one less than one
that makes it a number 
not negative one
zero is a number 
compleat in itself
zero is a goal
good for one's health

nothing is none
and empty is out
barren is imposible
yet silence can shout
gone is'nt absent
away is'nt naught
never implies zero
missing can be forgot

zero smoking, zero sex
zero taking chances on risky events
zero drinking, zero drugs
zero being responsible, zero falling in love
zero disease's, zero hurts
zero damaged reputations 
zero wounded hearts
maybe zero cancer, maybe zero arts
maybe zero errors, maybe zero plays
maybe zero hatred, maybe zero AIDS
zero negativity, zero enemies made


A Smile

Sometimes smileing is the hardest 
thing to do
Knowing what I know, seeing what 
they do

Sometimes I think my smiling is the 
thing that makes things worse
It"s hard hard to think my smiling is 
the cause of my curse

Sometimes I think by divine design
My best plans are twarted
My hopes and dreams would just 
unwind
If something was what I wanted

If I could give my smile away
Joy would be disburst
My smile would try to fill the day
With the happiness it rehursed
 
My smile wants to smile
But instead tears they burst
Tears that come unwillingly
But from a natural birth

Tears that tell the secret
Tears that reviel the fears
Tears of untold sorrows
Tears from all the years

A million and one things
Could be hidden with a smile
Is a smile worth giving
With heart breaking all the while

Who would suspect the smile
The master of deceit
Smiles they go unquestioned
They make the deal compleat

But this day a day I did not choose
A day for my soul to sorrow
Today my smile I will not use
But save it for tommarow

A smile unabused a little less used
Ready for the world
But while this meloncholy stays
My smile will go unfurled

Father's Room

Homeward, on an hungry belly
En-route a quick long trek, perhaps
It’s the hard day-after-day norm
And the poor little boy is mind-full
He deserves some respite– 
and even more
If only to furnish a compleat cycle

But, couching in an utopian suite,
was miles from the priority– 
‘twas scarce and sparse;
like rainfall in the Sahara
Maybe it had to be invented-
a make-shift

Not a very likely pick really:
Plastered with harmattan dust
Everywhere strewed with literature
and scrap
and other features
of sanguine entropy
But no more of pleasurable comfort

Howbeit, with serenity and quietude,
it was his choice 
Preferred above the Burj

Such was the incubator his mind reveled in -
Sandwiched like a worm in a book
in the tranquility of darkness

And when the dawn enters
It does with refreshing enthusiasm, 
For there was enriching activity
in father’s room

Missing Puzzle Peace

We play we fight 
But it never fills right
What is this thing that's in my heart
I don't know what to call it 
Hate? Love? Dread?
Or is this only in my head!
I cant figure it out
You are my world
You are my enamie
You are my deception
What is this spell you have cast on me
I don't know what i am asposed to see
Are you asposed to be here
Or am i to let myself go
Free of the questions 
Of all the things i keep asking over and over
Why, why, why? what am i to do now
Why cant i just find that missing
Puzzle peace so i shalt know
How my life should be compleat....

Comb and Hair

to be neat
and compleat
and walk that beat
make a star dress the part
from bottom to top
its all part the lot
when people stair
its
COMB AND HAIR

The Angler and His Worms

The most Compleat Angler that's ever been
A zillion worms he'd gleefully dangled
Lies cold and squirming, and sadly doth glean
He's feast for the worms used while he angled

seventeen syllables,
simplicity and spareness-
a haiku,I guess

Love Illusion

Im afrade i have some confusion,
that my love for you is just an illusion. 

and when i see you i feel dread,
and all these thoughts run thru my head.

about if i say "i love you " as a repeat ,
but i know i make your life compleat.

i don't want to hurt you ,
but i can tell if my love is true. 

why do i have all these questions, 
and i need a lot of answers .

but im scared ,
so be prepared.

The prettiest thing I’ve seen today
Is often there a rare display 
The shinning star in her constellation 
That moves about insighting sensation
Like music to the ears
A treasure to the eyes
What the tongue calls sweet
A smile labeled compleat
Desire driven by the shape of the eyes
The hour glass figure is no surprise
Cheeks with dimples that paralyze
Hair tamed by curls supplied
The length of which says satisfied
How precious this feeling of being hugged
With eyes embracing the pinnacle of love
The momentary destination
Of heaven from above
The meaning of pleasure
Satisfaction without measure

Sporting Friends

Most Compleat Angler there ever was
With worms for company without fuss!
