Best Convincingly Poems

She squats and points,
her little face is all aglow.
Her smile is wide
She’s grinning ear to ear, you know.
She’s very pleased
at the discovery she’s made.
The little frog
is sitting frozen in the shade.
He knows that she

surfaced, risen above the...

We are in his favour

Blessed are the rich for they can afford the price rises
Essentials are so far out of reach for us...

I thought I saw a snowflake in June
Perhaps, it was just silly daydream imaginations
Or were ongoing investigations really do

Upon further horizon inquiries
The sun ended interviews in blushing denial
And when heavenly interrogations finished

I’m absolutely sure
The clouds were somewhere amidst the cover...

If I had more time to write
Oh the stories I would tell
The tales of Kingdoms rising
and later how they fell

Of Princesses locked in towers 
With golden locks of hair
I would tell tales so convincingly 
my friend I’d transport you there

Yes there’d be mythical fables

Beguiling bewitching beauty beyond my bona fide bounty
Gazed galvanic glances guiltily

I'm being truthful when I say I may dislike you immensely,
even though I appear to come off as very friendly.
I'll have you believing that I want you as my best friend
very convincingly,
even though in all honesty I dislike you immensely.

Way back before this baby boomer waz astute

I awoke just as the sun rose;
You were still asleep beside.
Your back was to me as you softly breathed;
When I saw you there, I cried.

Dreams that thread through fingers,
Long lost friends that steal away.
You stretched and sleepily turned to me;
I asked you if you’d stay.

You...
