Best Few Poems


Premium Member Few Believe
The numbers spike ever higher
  Tiny sparks now raging fires
The unseen killer makes his rounds
  Headaches throb, chests pound

Streets deserted, sidewalks too
  I wear a mask at home with you
A nation's nightmare, no end in sight
  Few believe it'll be alright...

Premium Member A Few Choice Words From My Daughter
Busy getting ready to go to a meeting
I was looking through my closet for something to wear
My 20 year old daughter, Shereen, was in my bedroom
Showing me her new clothes
I marveled at her
What a body
What a beautiful woman
Her curves were to die for
Her thin waist set off her other assets to perfection
Such a womanly figure
Her...

Has It Been a Year Already-I Added a Few More
As thephilosopher  readies for his p soup anniversary 
Remembering he found this place last Christmas Day
Surely the best gift he did receive
Now for some holiday fun, DON”T LEAVE

Denise Narayadu I can't end the line with her name
To mispronounce it with a bad rhyme would be a shame
Her writing has very much intrigued me
In her...

Premium Member Half Bubble and a Few Bricks For Contest
He is "half a bubble off of centre"
More than "A few bricks short of a load"
He is not a Prince worth kissing
He is more of an ugly toad.

Some think he is "Rock Solid"
A veritable "Mountain of a man"
Instead he's a snake Replacing a ladder
Nothing but a "flash in the pan"

You'll have to "hit the nail...

Premium Member A Few Years Back
Is that your son by his mother's side?
When he calls you daddy, do you beam with pride?
Are you building memories of a lifetime, Jack?
You're a lot like me----------a few years back.

Is that your little girl?  Would you stop for a while?
Been quite some time since I saw a child smile
A few basic needs are...

Premium Member A Few of My Suckiest Things With Apologies To Julie Andrews
Stubbing my toeses and whiskers on women
Stepping on nettles and by a swarm of bees bitten
Bounded like hostages tied up with strings
These are a few of my suckiest things

White collared phonies and bills piled in oodles
Bad smells and poop felled from schnauzers and poodles
Old geezers who cry when the old swooner sings 
These are a...

Warning, if you are under 60 you may not "get" some of these.

Mohammad Ali
taunting with poetry,
his opponents he'd zing
as he danced 'bout the ring.

Graham Kerr "The Galloping Gourmet"
oft with our minds he would play.
Why else would he pick
the dessert "Spotted Dick"?

Ichabod Crane
rode down rode down the lane.
From the Headless Horseman he'd flee
while on his saddle...

Premium Member Amid a Few Bad Apples
There are a lot of word Smiths on this site
Who pen good poems that are out of sight  

Its likened to attending a beautiful  feast
Or eating good bread with just enough yeast

However, I must point out, and it's not a myth
I am in no way, shape, or form a word, Smith

But, I marvel...

Few Steps Behind
Your slipping away, I thought you would one day
But didn’t think the day would come so soon
If you jog through the memories in your mind,
You’d see, I was just a few steps behind.

Seems like time flew and we didn’t realise
That we should have held on tight,
Our love now appears like a fruit without its rind
Guess...

Just a Few Questions, Lord
Lord, why is it that when we see articles about aborting your babies,
we move on to something else ... and even sometimes get angry? 
Why do we argue among ourselves about that?     

Is it true, even in these days of scientific break throughs,
that some of your people still believe that abortion...

THE DUMB BLONDE 

Our dumb blonde leader is a total buffoon
Living in cloud cuckoo land in his cocoon
His party's starved our N. H. S. 
Now the country is in a mess 
Thinks the flu virus will be over real soon... 

OUR CRACKPOT GOVERNMENT 

They wanted to create herd immunity 
Run covid - 19 through our...

Just Give Me a Few Minutes Here -
I'm not your ev'ry day old fuddy-duddy
I know a dude who's my got-yer-back buddy...

And I'll send you for a plunge 'ore the falls of Niagra
(After my appointment with Dr. Viagra)

Of course I don't NEED it (I don't mean to boast)
It's just extra butter on top of my toast...

Then with renewed vigor AGAIN it shall greet-ya

BIN JAMAL

A pervert by the name of Bin Jamel
Was charged with bizarre sex with a mammal 
the charges were read
Bin Jamal went red
Cos the charge was bonking a fat camel...

Had a misfortune regarding his shoes
The neighbours dog left a load
In the middle of the road
He missed it...

Oh wise Raven of the clan,
Be the friend or foe of man?
Oh wise Serpent of the sand,
Who does hold the upper hand?
Oh gallant Eagle of the sky,
Can you teach me how to fly?
Oh white Wolf of the land,
Will you lend this man a hand?
Oh Blackbird who sings so sweet,
Would you trade your wings for feet?
Oh...

The Hours Are Few
Try to consider your hours of play,
That they are the ways of sharing the day;
For when all is said and done,
And the victory is won;
You may want to stay and shine,
In the sweet hours of summertime.
Always with some songs to cheer,
With silver church bells ringing clear,
From a great grey lofty steeple,
Soaring spire o'er all the...
