Best Flair Poems

Crystal Cup
 of Flair


The 
world judges another
 by what they own
Fancy jewels, clothing,
 cars and spacious homes.

They
 choose leaders born
 of arrogance and strife
Following them into
 wars and destructive lives

Many
 categorize a person's
 life through opinions
Created through jealousy
 they follow them like minions

Judge
 not or...

It would be nice on a day that is mild
To decorate a tree out in the wild
To bring Christmas, for animals to share
To celebrate this creation with care
With gratitude for all nature brings
Listen to carols, while the bird sings
Dance in the snow, skate on the...

Her true instinct's voice is soft-wave heart
yet, bohemian flame sparks zodiac's chart,
wandering through journey's enchanting years
caravan dressed in sunrise , dusk and rain...
I feel her passion stirring once again.

A soulful gypsy rustling skirts of fresh dreams
tambourines beat her free-spirit,agleam
and she flame's life dances on moonlit...

Two hundred mile an hour they say
a Fireblade screams along its way
but when alas, the rider’s Ray
the Fireblade went a different way.

It sped down Chester bypass quick
for Raymond gave it quite some stick
but at a hundred, fifty plus
just one mistake will make you cuss.

So when...

You guys will all probably think I'm crazy
Feel like tripping through fields of daisies
Prance around with flair
With a couple in my hair
It's all gone downhill since I reached my eighties

My mind bubbles over with happy thoughts
When all is down, I think all systems are go,
I refuse to let myself get tied up in knots
There are two sides to every coin, you know,
You can flip it to heads or you can flip to tails
Being sad...

A child should be held with care
Like the elderly who wish to share
When examined layer by layer
Both are similar when compared.

Young or old they're extremely dear
And they're both extreme in year
You'll see their hope in their glare
And their sadness when they stare.

Both reach out too...

Punta Cana DR on my t-shirt, had a wonderful time there
Two great weeks of sunny weather with a Caribbean flair
Girls in sarongs
Latin beat songs
A far away world with pure happiness in the air...

I am a hurricane,
a vortex of complexity
An external halcyon state,
inside, I'm not thinking straight.
Dragging each day by the hair
The same sorry bassline
plays a warning scale.
Eyes focused on the horizon,
when you don't look back
you fail to see
what's creeping up behind you.

There is a weakness.
A self-induced vulnerability,
I...

Brazil, her flash, her colors, her dramatics, her languages, her flair!
Christ the Redeemer seen clearly from the airplane, high in the air.
Coffee beans roasted in such a way to make me salivate.
Football in a new realm; a thrill that I can hardly anticipate.

Brazil, her spider...

Some people are naturally funny
They have a flair for comedy,
Seems everything they say or do
Illustrates laughter as a remedy.

Many times quite unwittingly
They say something not as a joke,
But it gets gales of uproarious laughs
Because it was a comic who spoke.

Often it’s merely a facial expression
That...

Maya Angelou proclaiming
She knows why the caged bird sings
While a raven Says forevermore
Brings to mind Edgar Allan Poe

Sir Walter Raleigh did inspire
with his poem "Like truthless dreams my Joys expire"
Emily Dickenson gave us many wonderful verses
"Apparently with no surprise"  being among the first

For sonnets...

I greet you with my canary tweet
Sweet midst liberty your meow can’t beat
Let’s have duet now
For sure, it’s a wow…
Along melody of freedom treat. 

Midst table manners and etiquette’s best
We do practice lofty standard with zest 
As giraffes of dining flair
Wasting no food as we...

There was a girl who was full of flair,
                  Then she climbed up standing on a chair,
