Best Ellen Poems


Premium Member The Colleen Bawn- Ellen Hanley
Young Ellen Hanley caught John Scanlon’s eye
He was determined that she’d be his wife
Their marriage was cursed and Ellen would die
On the River Shannon she lost her life.

She was a beauty but of lower class
He belonged to a wealthy family
A few weeks later grew tired...

Dear Ellen
If I was a boy, not yet a young man 
I’d push some paper into your han’. 
Lined and folded it would be, 
moving words for you to see. 

With thumb and fingers you’d hold it tight, 
then angle and raise it to the light....

Farewell To Ellen
By Cherbo Geeplay

It rains so much in Monrovia that a
day is like the bloated dough on a 
grey earthly May, washing over October. 
My love, the sun, hides in her bright den
refusing to be seen. Life comes to a slow
twiggy motion; the forest is breathing
with...

Oh, That Ellen Degeneres
Oh, that Ellen DeGeneres
Should be Ellen Da Generous!
She tosses those gifts about
That make you wanna shout,
"Hey, throw me somethin', glamorous!"...

Premium Member Ode To Ellen
You’re my symphony
the blood that runs through my veins,
ageless and timeless
like the metamorphic Rose
you came to dwell in my life!

Letter To Ellen Johnson - Sirleaf
I rather watch a kestrel to see
Her swoop and swirl
The skies invisible maze
To feed the inhabitants of her nest
Her milk of gratitude

Morning begins with a bright darkness
And the beckoning beaks for food
There is a wind ruffled mood
Yawing the feathers of the breast
Dawn is a ransom...

A girl i desire
an ancient flame rekindled
sincere warmth impaled,
there the whole day perfection
a place i ne'er want to leave.

I lost her somewhere in my past
so many years ago.
How could I have thought
a brief hello -
would linger so,
deep within my heart.

So many times she calls my name
in the darkness of my days.
My dreams reveal -
what once was real,
now deep within my heart.

Ellen
Every ounce of sacrifice you offered along the way
Like a flashlight guiding us on our darkest journeys
Looking for our way to get out on our destination
Even providing us the company all along
No other to describe a mother's love such as you do for us.

Thanks for...

Writing To Ellen
Again, I sit beneath the trees,
Pen and paper on my knees.
I yearn for something new not old.
I crave for story never told.

Between the branches squirrels leap,
While at my feet the critters creep.
I wait to see what words will form
A quiet tale or one of storm

Leaves...

I’ve never been in person
But would love to go

There’s lots of laughter
Guaranteed for sure
No matter what ails ya
It’s a wonderful cure

It’s full of surprises
There’s just no telling
What all you’ll get
When watching Ellen

She dishes out joy
Inspiring the audience
And keeps us updated

Miss Ellen DeGeneres 
Dislikes face powder adheres
It stains all her Armani
No more makeup for honey
