Best Countable Poems


Life Is Like Football

It took just a moment
A single concentration lapse
And down the drain,Bayern's effort went
Whilst Messi enjoyed the claps


Life is like a football game
As dicey as a game of chess
A step can earn you fame
Another can end you up in a mess

A poor tackle can earn you a red
A miscued shot can end in your net
Life is not a flower bed

Off the post,your strikes can ricochet


Goal tallies are all that are countable

Your loving fans can always turn their backs

Your strength is only a vegetable

So while you still can,stack up your medal rack

A Sad Love Story

I hope I remember you for the rest of my life.
I can see your face every single time I close my eyes.
Every single time, I lay my heavy body full guilt on the bed; 
I can see you.
I hope I succeed for being alive,
Cause simply when you depart I lost love, hope and the will to survive.
I hope now that you are out of this world like hell,
I can fulfite your will: me being alive.
Just for this simple will I am alive now.

I remember your last breath your last beating heart.
You told me:” I’m sorry that I will leave without a warning,
I am sorry for being selfish and go to the other world alone.
But still,
You need to stay alive for that I may stay alive:
In your beating heart.
Just imagine that my soul is inside yours,
That I breathe whenever you breathe.
Just imagine that every single beat of your heart 
It means another life for me,
Every single sight from your eyes is my only world.
You need to stay alive simply because:
“I love you “”
Then he fell,
He just fell from the edge of the cliff.

In his way down, all my happiness disappeared.
Some countable seconds were enough to make me come back years ago
To the one before meeting him.
That girl who had no faith or trust in any body,
And surly no love for a single soul.
Feelings or emotions are words that didn’t exist in her dictionary 
Nore in her descriptions.
Back in the days before you,
As I walk in the way;
Never imagining that you would cross my way,
I used to observe people in their eyes as if
They are empty without souls,
Nor past, present or future,
As if their bodies are controlled by the circumstances of their surroundings, 
As if they don’t feel nor do they think.
In mush easy explanation: controlled people in a controlling world.

In my case it was the same:
My house, village, the near forest with the flowing river,
All the people I knew or merely accidently met,
Were the writer of my life story.
In much easy explanation:
The pen and the book of my life were not in my hands

I had a young body with an old soul.
I was full of emptiness.
I couldn’t walk in a simple path, 
And shamefully I couldn’t return my natural right: Freedom.

A Sad Love Story

Since my first sight of you;
Who were riding a white horse 
Galloping around the forest,
I was just a simple controlled person picking up countable apples 
Laying on the controlling ground.

Never feeling the slight soft winds touching my skin’s face,
Never feeling the warm sunshine of the spring,
Appear and reappear under the shadows of the trees.
All my hidden emotions;
Which I thought didn’t exist deep inside of me, 
Appeared once I ride the white horse with you.
For the first time,
The old ugly forest seemed new and fresh,
And it still seems like that until now.

On your way down the cliff,
I stared on your tearing face,
Then I noticed: you were happy.
Even if I don’t want to admire it but you were happy.
And you are happy because you live inside of me.

If meeting you was climbing the mountains of my believes,
If it was finding hope in the deep dark,
And in much more easy explanation:
Finding freedom between your two warm arms and wide chest.

Finding me was; for only you, 
Like finding the safest path
After testing almost all deferent dangerous other paths.
It was like to calm your anger after firing you spirit with almost all tested feelings.
And in much easy explanation:
Finding a controlled freedom in one single soul: me.

Now what I can remember is you getting further in the deep.
Your body was getting smaller and smaller as you fall.

If you departed on your own feet,
I could claimed your will made you leave,
Then I would be free from your heavy soul inside of me,
Living my life once again tied inside this controlling world
But, no
You departed because of the soil gravity,
It pulled you down as much as it could,
As strong as it could, 
And as quick as it could. 

Your body had disappeared now,
So deep in the edge of the cliff.
Your soul immediately flew and came near to me.
At that moment all my senses stopped to function.
I couldn’t see, hear, or feel my skin.
At a moment your soul controlled the whole of my body,
And the only face I recognized was your pall face 
As you smile upon that white horse 
Giving me your hand for that I may leave my prison.

And for some reasons, now; 
I can no longer control my body,
Because; simply, you control it now.

The Curse of Grammar

The curse of grammar

The curse of grammar includes spelling
Witches and wizards stewed it from far away
They’d like to make your heads sway
They used eyes of cats
Boiling them in copper pots
The refined magic brew is spread as chemtrails
Unclearly set spelling rules make us clumsy
Uncertain article rules make us crazy
Who cares if countable or uncountable?
Only people who are grindable or findable




My native tangue is Japanese, and I am not a English native speaker.
 I suffer from English grammar very much.

Marxism For Dummies 14

Though Canton claims it’s communist, it’s not.
Beijing, like Belarus, breeds oligarchs.
There’s nobody alive who’s heard of Marx:
a rickshaw ride’s the only kind of trot.

Seek Mensheviks in Minsk, you’ll end with squat.
In Kursk are cadres countable as quarks,
and proles in Petrograd?  Like hunting snarks.
It’s Putin’s perestroika, not Pol Pot.

Why did the whole thing vanish in thin air?
Why’s Sputnik spat on?  Why is red so square?
We needn’t be complacent in the West.
There’s lots to learn within the Warsaw Waltz
for, as a tool to scrutinise the faults
of Christian Capital Conquest, it’s the best!

Insect Quiet

Insect Quiet 

I take the quiet of the night  
With somewhat countable drops of rain
Too heavy on the leaves unsettled there 
And like the leaves I never settle
Dim lamp light goes out of focus
I gather myself within the laws of nature
Turn instead, I watch the insect make his path
Too small or nearly so, for our detection
I see his children come and go below the wall
Clothed in armor
With minute morsels of food and crumbs
They slip into the dark 
My watch is missing also….but moving on
With tiny legs and armored bodies
In the quiet of the night they make their way
And I make mine
I sleep before myself and others
And leave the details to the dim lamp light

All Within My Power

Each time I saw mum and dad fuss
Over issue of not enough
I felt damp and embarrass
I often thought of what to do to have this not enough
Money solve, for I'm a little girl I sank within
One evening it repeated itself again
I lose zest that night; I pray to God
Before I went to bed" dear wonderful and miraculous lord
Please increase the money that dad dropped upon
The table before morn as you morphed water to wine
Within a wee" I woke four times to check
If 't has been increased, but not, these make
Sleep to elude the ocean
Un-countable thoughts whirl swiftly within my brain
Then I arrived at a point " I'd better
Help them to divide each into four"
I raised and moved ahead, as I held to tear
It; I heard "don't" from the rear
Oh! Mum I wanted to help you
This is all I can do!

The Graphics of the Branches Look Chinese

The sun sinks but it burns like a  great fire;
All the sky’s aflame with  fierce intent;
Who thinks of death as weakness, is a liar
Before the end  our glory must be spent.

The  graphics of the branches look Chinese
As  blackened brush is drawn across red silk
Infinite yet countable  my days
Running like a river without silt

Thus I am not transcendent in myself
But joined to all that lives I feel I am.
So in conjunction we will find our health
Ambivalence contains both lion and lamb.

The fire of  orange leaves me with a glow
As into night I with all creatures go

Bedlam Unto Death

Woe unto you, Oh! mortal man
For from amongst your brethren soon shall you depart
Depart and be made whole with the death clan
For death only awaits, when with your brethren you part

Woe unto you, Oh! mortal man
For from before you crept past and fast, life
You,like in an abbatoir, a vegan
Dilly-dallied vainly and in strife

Woe unto you, Oh! mortal man
For you countable days were tempestuous
Uneasy like a swinging fan
And the tales of your life,vicious
For from your bossom erupted volcanoes 
Sprouting forth evermore
Great upthrow and more like  bellows
And you knew peace nevermore

Languages I Speak

I reduce myself into smaller categories
Speaking languages I don’t really know
Spreading my wings in different places
Multiplying myself in countable numbers 
Just to do several things at once
Nothing is really done in the same time
But I do it in the same time of my life 
I speak the language of Music, of poetry 
Discovering and awakening the Do Re Me and Rhythms of fluency 
I speak the language of Friendship and devotion 
Spending my time with friends and devoting things I really admire
I speak the language of Disrespect and hatred
Of the many things I did, this I am not proud of
I speak the language of love and loyalty 
Converting actions into feelings and feelings into actions
I speak the language of pain and enduring
Suffering the events, enduring the results
I speak the language of Eyes and spirit 
Understanding things’ reasons and the connection with the soul 
I speak the language of Revenge and right
I fight for what is taken, grabbing my right
I see through God’s sign 
I think before I act
I speak the language of life…

A Small Boat

Drift a small boat with two paddles
In the sky above 
Swiftly passes by the lake surface 
A frightened swan 

Clear blue sky painted with 
The green mountains
All the beautiful scene is 
Taken by the still water

Waveless lake shapes like a mirror  
With countable fish swimming 
In clear water

On the sandbank by the river 
White birds take a leisurely perch thereon 
Look like you 
Look like me

I Can'T Forget That Devotion

Where   can I find,
The greatest love than yours!
The love that took me completely,
Feeding me unconditionally,
Milking itself for its baby boy.
But let me count my days,
For I wasn't fair to it,
My days are countable than fingers,
Not long enough, I will die.

 My heart looses flesh,
Whilst its bones can’t stand,
It is empty and baggy,
As it won’t find again,
The greatest love as yours,
Love that can glue the broken chambers,
and make them one again.

Wishing you luck my girl,
Hope, you will find someone, who truly cares.
And deserve such kind of love
With protections and appreciations.
Go……! 
For I failed to protect your love
But I will forever remember you!

Premium Member Hummocks of Glimmering Sand

The sun was newly risen above the Earth
His golden smile warmed amber desert sands
The grand landscape resembled barren lands
as sepia grains were slathered in rippling waves
That's what I saw through blurred vision
the hallucination of turquoise rivers in a mirage

This sea of sand was the color of maple honey
but bore no trace of footprints, boat nor oar
It held no countable fathoms of unknown depth
to serve sailors as their watery graves
Its swells were not waves washing to the shore
nor slithering sea snakes, worse by far

No lush oasis to be found as an illusion to my eyes,
nor cool stream to quench a weary traveler's thirst
This Eastern dune held no date palms for a feast
nor shade from which life could be reimbursed

Here, the moon does not control ebb and flow
There are no tides except for those guided by Mariah
Her harsh winds blow without a wit of warning
and scorpions have no fear of drowning in undertow

In the vast hummocks of gold glimmering sand
I found myself living life sorrowfully chagrinned
lost and confused while the sun blistered my skin
I circled the shores of this scorched desert sea
until parched, death took its final payment from me

Some See
David J Walker

Some see sun 
Some see none
some 
see 
the sum of 
light and countable  
luminations

Some see night 
and fear 
As the first creation
Falling near  
Failing feint 
supplications 

Some see music  
Dancing in bright hues 
and tunics 
tied to 
what might be true
To flight 
and memorization 

Some see 
	the sea 
in mountainous 
		waves 
and crave the honors 
of the brave 
		and celebration


Some see nothing 
	At the end 
of every road
losing to infinite
