Best Fast Growing(A) Poems

Many of mankind's best souls are leaving us now,
climbing a trellis of morning glories 
     to their promised reward.

Soft blue blooms wake and open at dawn,
casting their sapphire eyes upward
     to search the heavens.

Were morning glories the...

A-Z Latin and Common names of plants.

A is for Acanthus Mollis the Latin name but this does teach us
B is for the common name we know it as bears Breaches.

C is for Campanula some are short and some of them tower
D is for the common...

Lazily musing on the bank of a gently flowing stream, 
I mulled upon life: was it reality or naught but a dream? 
Then at the moment I pondered, what and why? 
I heard a musical chorus from somewhere nearby. 

Though immersed in reverie, I became...

NOT  LISTENING


Choral gladioli  in formal circles,
Standing awkward beneath the pines’
Shade  -  their  pinks and purples
Gasping in the gloom for sunshine.

Immersed in a happy crowd mustered
Around them  - dandelions in masses
Like children in unruly jostling clusters,
A natural  attraction -...

Sprawling green gardens super 
Brilliant, breezy cool weather 
Bustling busy night life 
Clubbing culture that does strike 
Thriving tech talent pool 
With culture uniquely cool 
Fastest growing tech hub 
City of many clubs and pub 
Millennial-friendly city rocks 
A magnificent megacity just laughs 
City of...

The scene was set the moment we met as he guarded my
heart with verses of pleasure-
I’ll never forget the irrational threat banning poetry
beyond comprehensive measure. 
Freedom bells rang and little birdies sang to the tune
he wrote like the whisper on an eagle-
But when injustice came...

Trump Had Greeted Golf Game

Each time a golf game Trump greeted,
Only way other players he defeated;
Whoop and holler;
His ball is smaller;
Pulled tricks and constantly cheated.

Jim Horn

Still laughing?

Over ten again so have to add more 
to this poem so I can cut and paste 
later.

You are our liberator
For seven years confined
Searching for a love connector
You complete our lives, true hearts bind

All nine yards of happiness
Send it far up to nine planets
In scoreless game, evoking wittiness
On cloud nine, all in a bucket

Turning 9 years old is great
What have you made...

A very powerful house of Asia,
made with multiple materials and several distinct colours;
Chinese paints, Arabian decorations, Persian carpets and British Architecture
amongst others are the most conspicuous of its beautiful mixture.

Its dining place is carved out of the historic Sarawak chamber
where hot milk tea is served...

Your smile is my ray of hope 
The light at the end of my tunnel 
The rainbow on my cloudy day 
Your smile my daughter 
It’s the overwhelming tightness of joy in my chest 
 
You fill my thought now 
It is your future I...

When does intelligence transgress into another form?
When does intelligence meet insanity?
When do words form insanity?
One can read and relay, read and relay
relay and reconstruct, relay and reconstruct
but underneath all these 'r's' is a line
A constant.
It has no frills, it has no additional edges
Its constant,
thick, consistent...

In poems, I keep all the things
That I should not, ever, forget-
The robin preening as she sings
The sharp scent of autumn's breath

Pumpkins fast growing ripe and round
Fields turning to a golden brown
Frosty dawns make a crunching sound
Laughter rises as pale white clouds

Sunlight pours in through...

I plant a tiny seed today
A miracle borne within
In just a while
‘twill germinate
green leaves begin to show
Daily growing
more leaves are showing
Attached to a trellis 
for display
As this fast growing shrub
Is a plant that I love
Growing six inches taller each day
Standing almost majestic 
She...

Got the feelings while sitting on a ruin,
So much had already been wasted, till;
So little we have in our humble hands
To save this beautiful world from our greed
In these years, we have created a few
Monumental ruins, silicon valleys,
Bleeding rivers and moulded plastic dreams
Illusions, illusions...
