Best Entertain Poems

I
Love
Writing
Poetry
My words flow freely
Once my brain gets into the groove
If possible I try my best to write with humour 
Because laughter is the best medicine … and it is much cheaper than a prescription!

"The sounds of Earth Is the Music of my Soul"


Earth Seeks to Entertain

No sound pleases me like falling rain.
When it drums on my roof
It banishes my every pain.
Its little drops both cheer and sooth.

When it hisses majestically out there
And I'm keeping warm indoors
It makes me...

Mockingbirds' entertainment
         As the sunrises
            Underneath cobalt skies
                 Sending forth...

vaudeville stepped off the stage
and leapt into the living room
with hot topic-tuned antenna views

shy ventriloquists turned from radio
to television with a vision to be seen

juggling with eye-catching
candle-, duck-, and ten-, pins
off the bowler skids in aerial suspension

abracadabra handlers saw their guests -
half of them enjoyed...

He can entertain himself for hours 
We saw what she meant when we spied on him
He was four, the ideal age for garnishing make believe
He doesn’t need toys? We asked his mother

He creates worlds out of his imagination, she replied.
Give him sticks, moss, leaves, a...

When mom is busy
We engage in a task not so easy
We entertain the baby
With action packed stories or lullaby 
Stories all of our making
Sound packed tales keep him from sleeping 
We rack our brain to relate a new  one each day
Which the baby listens...

could you take off your clothes and amuse me?
i've been needing to laugh all day
i broke my shoe, got caught in the rain, and locked my keys in the car
and now i just want to laugh at you

so get yourself naked and put on your...

They came to entertain us…high school students from St. Augustine
They came to dance…and I have to say their dancing was anything but routine.

And they were beautiful, these students, they came in all shapes and kinds
most of them were deaf…and a few of them were blind.

(A Carnival Barker)
There’s no shame in my game,
I write to entertain
This is from my upcoming book 
that has no name.
Poetry that entertains.
 
I am the halftime show 
always ready to go...
A delightful distraction,
sharing that verbal interaction.
I’m a good time on two feet
An Army of one.
And...

I’ve made my choice for my next life
I’m coming back fierce as a drag queen
I’ll be osé and voluptuous
flamboyantly vivacious
in stilettos and seductive gowns
wigs of lush luscious curls
belting out steamy tunes
on stage in cabarets
strutting my stuff
impersonating divas
living life large
as it is meant to be
with a...

The Summers were hot in the suburbs of our city,        
 We had a small sandy yard, a few toys and a kitty.               ...

I'm not sure about this
entertainment
divorced from engagement
issue

But,
consider the following
a hypothesis,
a Thought Experiment
in the Indigenous MotherLand
and SacredWaters
of ecowomanist political theory,

Part of my own experience
betrays a rightwing bias
against superficial entertainment

And, by association, self-promoting entertainers
living out shuttered
and too often unshuttered cluttered
Reality Shows
confusing inside unsafe voices
with healthy outside choices

They wait their turn, 
Watching from the sidelines.

Cheerfully chattering, they speak, 
Perhaps of weather.

Then suddenly they’re off! 
Swooping down, they glide,

Wings extended in crucifix, 
They brake. Alighting softly 

Onto the pavement. 
Here there are seeds scattered.

Tossed each day by a frail hand 
From the porch...
