Best Feared Poems

Andy was a pretty young girl,
Flirty, fun, always busy, in a whirl,
She was popular at school,
Was intelligent, nobody’s fool
She never was short of a date,
But this would become her fate!
There was at college with Andy,
A nerdy guy called Randy,
Always unpopular heartily disliked,
He spent time alone,...

A lot of body shifts by an inch,
While vengeful killer teeth they clench:
A prosecutor is addressing The Bench,
Concerning dastardly murder of a wench
By a whisky-soaked German French
Whom he’s sure could also in Vodka drench!

Shovel handy they could dig The Quickest Trench
And from Prosecutor A Talkative...

I feared that soon the snow would leave,
As I watched the melting wreaths give way,
To the hand of time, come now to press,
The passing of my holiday...

Where the ghosts of Christmas just now past,
Their laughter and their footsteps sound,
Up stairways, down hallways, of a heart...

not death
never ghosts

Eyes half-shut, you are seeing,
unseeing to house the failing light.

When the tornado writhes down, will
you come to clean the rubble ?

And splash the bird, the sky in purple ?

I am afraid of myself
to explore the craft of non-living. 

When the silence descends, I will
know myself,...

There once was a cat that feared rats;
When he saw them, he hid under mats;
One day a rat, spied him and
Came up behind him;
Now he has teeth marks in his back.

Natural calamities have been
With man since time immemorial; 
Frequenting the earth's face, 
Standing as one tall trial.

They ravage places at random, 
So unpredictable; 
Like invincible enemies, 
Wreaking havoc so powerful.

Nature unleashes its wrath
In many forms; 
Volcanic eruptions, wildfires, 
Extreme heat and winter storms.

Other types are...

I always had feared
She was surely to be weird
Also many tiered.

Merlin had a way that turned into animal attraction
This often led him into a natural kind of satisfaction
Creatures sensed his cleverness and his stealth
He often fixed a wing or nursed them back to health

His magic was well known in the woods beyond the veil
He had...

Could you imagine how mad the devil would be if we feared God as much as covid-19
When his lies no one  believes and his confusion only confirms our faith
Would he be dismayed at the peace we would create
When we live our lives determined by...

She was drafted into the enemy’s army
Supposed to cut down men from her homeland
Her blade was swift and true, and she was fast
Others heard of her, and there was fear

She is the one who is always right out front
Her comrades soon became her men
She was...

Feared Death Neared

Thing that I always most feared
Was when my death had neared,
And life would come to an end;
Completed all that I did intend,
Into vacant space disappeared.

She feared the outside world
The pandemic had killed thousands
Hundreds of thousands
She stayed in for over two years

People coaxed and cajoled her
She was lonely but would not venture out
Safe in her nest, she reread her books
She wanted to be safe

Two more years went by
She is depressed...

Yes, I am what you fear.
But it’s only because of 
what you choose to believe,
and what you then choose to see,
that you manifest the threat 
... which is apparently me.

Does that sound familiar
my prejudiced friend?
I’m something strong, strange and powerful
with no common ground shared;
but my...

The Forever I Feared 
David J  Walker

The Forever I feared
would last 
Three years
Before I  knew
The Army wasn’t really 
Meant to be forever 
Or was it?
	Or is it?
As I try and write 
It’s past explanation again
Where I am
		Or have been
In the prose of perfect...
