Best Exclamation Poems
The Exclamation PointProving a point! An exaggerated ending
I see - I am drawing conclusions
An overstatement! Influential indeed
An extravagant means of spreading viewpoint
Ah! I write - I use it to exclaim
I end my proven thoughts with ability
Drawing attention to the written word
I see - you see ! You...

Apostrophe after every catastrophe under par

An exclamation point in war under par....

Exclamation PointThe landmark was given the name
"Exclamation Point," and indeed it became
the most exciting place I'd ever known!
The "parentheses" between us shone
of sun "dashes" splashing
on the "comma" aquamarine.
My fashion "square bracket" charms swayed
like my body stayed in Mark's trustworthy arms.
Our eyes simultaneously...

Exclamation, ParenthesisIt's relatively a slow process.
A thought builds upon anticipation.
Thanks to the nostalgia ingrained by Disney.
Musically the songs are different.
Granted the press of a thumb.
Spotify, Pandora.
An assortment of different streams all profoundly deep.
Separately, the adaptation is the same.
Boy meets girl.
Eyes go on vacation.
Suddenly we're dressed...

Blast Off Exclamation PointsWe were strapped in ready for take-off,
the engines churning around us.
We'd longed for this moment,
but when it came we were scared rigid,
wondering if we'd survive.
"Countdown to take-off!" the captain roared.
Gritting our teeth we made ready.
pushed hard into our seatbacks with stomachs
turning cartwheels we were off...

Use Exclamation Marks SparinglyExclamation marks rile up and excite Mrs. Ex.
She teaches seventh grade English and always suspects….
We are overdoing it when we use even on.
So I throw them in my paragraphs to have some fun.
She says they should be rare and exclusive to execute.
Her ideas are...

A Hollow Feather As An Exclamation PointI am flying
I am screaming over the world with a light heart
Eternity just seems inadequate tonight
Just lying here so unaware of everything
This is so much more than nothing
These stars came out just for us
I can't think of anything other than you here with me...

Love Exclamation Oh Please“Oh Romeo”, “yes, my sweet Juliet”
This love I believe,
Is nothing but fiction, nothing but a dream.
Pray show me a love
Untainted by pain
That time’s wretched hands haven’t touched
And filled with lies, adultery and pure hate
Love sick mates
Sweet nothings and French kisses on the streets
So sickly...

Question Exclamation?/!
Why?
What for?
Please explain,
Tell me more.
Why now?
What’s changed?
How did it happen?
Who’s to blame?
What did I do?
Where’ve you gone?
Why can’t we talk?
Are we really done?
I don’t understand,
Nothing seemed wrong!
Why’s she not here?
Am I really alone?
What should I do?
Where can I go?
I hate this shell
That once was home.
I’ll...

Life Is Not Only An Unfair Exclamation PointIt is a week before Christmas,
And I recline in my desk blue chair;
Bursting with words
That matter to you,
And hoping that that’s very fair.
For I know that you have your moods, too,
I hope that your girlfriend (or “boy--”) cares
And gives you the gift
That speaks “I...

Die Twice Exclamation MarkDie twice exclamation mark.
Torment signaled basilisk
farce.
Die twice rolled,
freezing my snake eyes!
What a Soul you have!
And all your body a slit in
my perception,
a cut to deepen my ignorance
of what little I see of you.
Better I get a taste
than swallow you whole....
