Best Firsts Poems
How Many Firsts Can We Find
If Hillary is next President there will be many firsts.
First Presidential Pair to take off in Air Force One.
First Presidential Pair to re-enter White House.
First female president to sign something into law.
First Female President to assign a new member to Supreme Court.
First Female President to bring in her old White House plates and silverware.
First Presidential Pair to have an Easter Egg roll.
First Presidential Pair who has a grand child.
First Presidential Pair to ever sleep together for second time in White House.
First Presidential Pair to watch TV in the White house together.
First Presidential Pair to put up a Christmas Tree together.
What firsts can you think of. Her alone along with them together
will be doing many firsts. Which ones can you name? Jim Horn
Las Vegas. We will have a blast! Have your husband get us tickets.
My husband got them, encouraged me greatly.
All was terrific.
Las Vegas never sleeps.
But we did.
With blinking lights, car horns, and a constant drone
Outside the windows.
So we barely slept.
We went to some shows.
The Beatles "love" show was awesome.
David Copperfield's magic show still has me amazed.
I let out a scream from hell when he appeared in front of me
Several hundred feet from the stage where he just disappeared.
I had blisters on my feet by hour two.
By day two I was running around Vegas in slippers
Because my feet were too swollen to wear shoes.
I was limping and leaning on my friend, miserable.
We were up early. No one else seemed to be.
We saw people sleeping on the sidewalk.
One or two had their butt cracks in the air.
I would have covered them but there are no blankets.
Vegas is a place you need to see,
But I would not recommend going there more than once.
The food is inexpensive, but the buffets cost more than a limo ride.
The people are accomodating, but full of bad directions.
We got too silly at gambling machines, and ended up leaving our shared
Cup of quarters in a casino. Driving there was treacherous and awful.
Last vacation with a friend I had traveled with yearly up until
This trip. Vegas - a trip of firsts and a trip of lasts.
When I first viewed your pictures in the net
I knew I saw an Angel yet to be discovered.
When I first sent you a message
my hope of having a heavenly experience with you was created.
When I first read your response,
I felt so fulfilled and accomplished.
When I first talked to you through the Phone,
you made me so warm, Tender and calm.
When I first chat with you,
I realized how lucky I am to behold
a rare germ and a wonderful companion.
When I first saw you laugh,
you sounded soft and too feminine to be real.
After my first physical acquaintance with you,
I was already so scared of missing you.
When I first hugged and held you tightly,
I prayed you will be mine and mine alone forever.
When I first kissed you,
I knew I have fallen in Love with you already.
When I missed you passionately for the first time,
I vowed never to allow you out of my sight again.
You are my first lady, the first to mother my Children.
The first to make them 3 and the first to watch them grow
with me.
If there would ever be a second
to any or some or all of these experiences,
you'd be the first to be second or even third
or even the hundredth and all.
I love experiencing all our firsts,
The first time you walked me to my car,
underneath the shiny stars.
mmmm our first kiss,
And how I couldn't wait 2 taste your lips.
The first time we made love,
so confident and equipt.
Never took our time for granted,
we were thankful for this gift.
The first time you stayed till morning,
had me taken by surprise.
To wake with this hansom man,
was all worth my wild.
The first time we had a fight,
And saw who we really are,
We still made the decision to love each other,
till death do us part.
The first year of first holidays,
we spent building what we have.
To turn our loved ones into family,
And continue on our path.
The times we feel were worlds apart,
you'll always have my heart.
And now to have you in our lives forever's just the start.
I'd very, I'd so very
like to share every
next First with you.
Grief comes,settles in the veins
And then come the firsts
Needling it to rise and erupt
Crash and clamor
First time as I land and inhale
The air of my land
Will it feel arid and alien
Without your breath mixed in it?
First time my sallow eyes
Searching for a glimpse of you
In the collage of faces
Known and Unknown

Satan: Recorded First Liar,
His lies like Wings A Good Flier;
God’s Reaction: The First Anger
That put Poor Adam in danger,
Garden of Eden First Venue,
Four Rivers in its Avenue;
Feet- Deprived Snake First Punishment,
Fulfilling God’s Wished Commandment
The Whole Episode: Sad Drama,
Much stronger than Shakespeare’s Grammar…
Adam’s Fig Leaves for Loins First Cloth:
A Nice Cook could with them make broth;
Animal Skin for Adam First Dress;
Just The Ones that could Eyes impress:
In effect, God The First Tailor
In effect, God The First Sailor…
These were The Firsts in Genesis:
Mainly about Man and Nemesis.
each novelty
a penny in a jar
adding up
to who we now are
even when it’s full
you cannot start new
fresh experiences
start becoming few
again in our head
they play and they play
what can’t be lost
we wish would go away
so we settle
to forget the riveting firsts
doing everything we can
to numb our hopeless thirsts
In 1967, fresh out of high school at seventeen, I boarded a northbound bus to the metropolis of the mid-west. After arriving in Chicago, while waiting to be picked up by a family member, I met my first con-artist who ripped me off for ten dollars. That's the way I was welcomed to Chicago. Chicago provided my first full-time job with a metal plating company. In 1969 I experienced my first airplane flight from Chicago to Memphis, Tn., and in the Spring of 1968, I witnessed a riot in Chicago. It was the most confusing, the darkest, and the longest night of my life. After turning twenty-one, I cast my first ballot in Chicago. Attended a Chicago City-College a year before enrolling in a four-year college from which I graduated in 1972. Fresh out of college at twenty-two, got married in Evanston, a Chicago suburb. In 1973, fourteen months after getting married, just shy of my twenty-fourth birthday, had my first child in southern Wisconsin, 100 miles north of Chicago. In 1974 at the age of twenty-four, I bought my first car in Zion, a Chicago suburb. Chicago was where I rented my first apartment and shortly thereafter, I experienced my first burglary at this apartment. Sometime later, while all alone on a dark city street, I was strong-armed robbed for the first and only time in Chicago. Where I grew up there were lots of alcoholics, but I met my first heroin addict in Chicago. I attended my first Major League Baseball game at Wrigley Field in Chicago. I did not realize until this week that there were so many firsts in Chicago, and I suspect if I kept at this there would be a lot more. May it suffice to end this journey with three more firsts in Chicago: First bike, first kiss, first accident(my fault)........

It seems like yesterday we first met
I held you in my hands and knew you were safe
You put your head on my chest and drifted into complete silence
As you grew in strength you grew in independence
You listened intently as so you could speak your own voice
Unable to witness your first step you ran all over me
You are my first greatest anything
I love you
A Life of Firsts and Lasts
David J Walker
Every second
A second later
Every second
Another day gone
Everyday
wasted on water
Every night
Stripped of light
A waste of
Wine and song
Every first
follows another
every verse
In past
Winters frost
Will count the cost
Of every calendar

There are firsts in life
you should strive to do,
like saying “hello” first
or “how are you?”
Extend your hand first
and offer a smile,
making friendliness your natural style.
When relaying a compliment,
be sincere…
Let strangers know
they are welcome here!
And, since we all make mistakes
no matter how long we live,
it will serve your heart well
when you’re first to forgive.
Murder in the first degree, no ammendment' a tone
Never to attune; to.' the U S A to be deaf and dumb?
Were its constitution srruck, a mortal wound;
Would be done! A world of opportunity; undone, the
Vital seed of true debate, free expression the chance
To counter hate.' I appreciate as many do, a healthy
America is better.' Reality's heart, beating beneath
The red white and blue!
You think the time we met
was when we locked eyes
But our souls knew each other
repeating lifetimes
An unspoken language
that needed no words
An automatic magnet
pulling us close
Why would two beings
fight, temp the fates
When we were destined
together, forever
an unending first
Cant remember the first time
i kissed her
because i never stopped
Cant forget her face
The trace never leaves
its place
With her frame underneath
my fingertips
i finally felt touch
Time has retired
Fire has no thirst
and everything is firsts
