Best Flavours Poems
Ice-cream Flavors
For a taste of ice-cream flavors
let's start with chocolate
A dip into the world of love
with a sense of tingle from above
Vanilla brings a sweetness to the tongue
and turns upside down every single frown
Take a deep breath in every bite
for butterscotch ice-cream is just right
Take a dance in the milky way
as you taste a caramel ice-cream sundae
Taste all the flavors on your tongue
take a plunge in each world
a dance in each town
Each taste is unique
with its own special spark
a yummy little thing
that brings you out of the dark.

Feel funny face
Set sensuous space
Flavours float free
Grooming grand glee
Spread savvy spice
Note nurture nice
Play profound ploys
Taste thrilling toys
Make moments meet
Seek sunny streets
Love lively lines
Face feelings fine
Treasure true times
Rouse rowdy rhymes

Feel free to choose the way to see;
Line up each thought with curious plot;
Ask for a noose that fits the tree;
Voice in sure lot that fatal spot;
Open your eyes to what feels right;
Use inner light to set the stage;
Reach beyond sighs to moments bright;
Sense a clear sight that floods new page.
Rise to the state where truth abides;
Echoes now hint of pulse and plan;
Cheer is your date despite your pride;
Inch by inch mint that special blend;
Touch a sure urge in atmosphere;
Ends now emerge to set things clear.

A seam in a sock is a whistling clock. Wheelbarrow hours like a treading of grapes for wine. But swamped with the rest of the waters, teas, coffees and creams can bring a mingle of music to a break. But breaks are not breaking nor brave really for the breaks are merely for beakers and brooms. Who enter rooms and chat in slow monosyllabic voices with largely low accentuated accents. Apathetically apples appear appropriately at a arch. And the dust busters move in with their cloths and clothes hinged with a tinge of lint emulsion spray. Lint emulsion spray is quite popular and should never be confused for a carnation, a carriageway, a cart horse or a canned carrot cake. It is to be said that there is over one million ninety three thousand nine hundred and fifty three trees lining up in the foot long yard. How rather interesting that is really? And to say hello from the frozen pieces of pie is to take the meaningless ingredients for a walk on an extendable lead. Well they must exercise mustn't they? Little pieces of cut meat and vegetables love to run and run. And sauces can climb quickly over stiles. Ha the bracken bracket beckons to a bullfrog. Ha the deluge of indelible inks in a cotton shield of sanctification. Ha shoes on a coat walking with a petticoat in a goblet. Xxxxx therapeutically z z z z z taking the washing line and abseiling down the stairway of the breaded grassed house of Oven. Z

Buzz and bubble,
Sign of trouble;
Booze and babble,
Niche a double.
Fuss and disdain,
Sign of disease;
Splurge of vain gains,
Note lack of ease.
Blur and rowdy,
Times of odd trace;
Shades of moody,
Tells in your face.

Way back in my childhood days
used to love real favourite sweet
they were hard boiled fruit flavours
real refreshing they were to eat
Mars Limited in UK made them
having many flavours totally nine
strawberry, orange lemon naming a few
but my favourite was simply lime
They had a real good tasty bite
but sucking them made them last
so the flavour lasted real long
the kids loved them sold real fast
Sadly don't make them no more
todays sweets just not the same
quality don't have that taste
like yesterdays as they claim!

GREETINGS AT SPRING:
GONG XI FA CAI
Sense happy cheer with spring time blooms,
Pleasant good times bring peace of mind;
Rich fortune steers as fine health grooms,
Indulge fond rhymes that prospers kind;
Note smiles right here as joy fills rooms,
Glimpse wealthy chimes in charming finds.
Feel fine greetings that spread good cheer,
Live each day well as fortune sums;
Ask fond blessings to live right here,
Voice strokes to tell of grand outcomes;
Opt to receive blessings of health,
Umpteen the gifts in spring galore;
Rise to achieve tokens of wealth,
See good cheer lift each face once more.

Choice paves the way for easy fest,
Heed waves of change that call on you;
Ask love to stay with sparkling zest,
Note new and strange in scenes that cue;
Give cheer a run to take you far,
Explore the thrills of mystery.
Feel gist of pun with wit on par,
Light ever fills fond ecstasy.
Attract the form with thought profound,
Venture each day the paths of grace;
Observe sure norms that shape and ground,
Urge brings fine play to bless your space;
Reach for the grand in simple stuff,
Soul prompts the trend with love enough.

Sonnet
Feel the pulse of the spouse in a house
You thought you knew
Until your mouth turned into the louse
You became as fantasies ate you up anew.
Guilt on stilts divorced
Sombre sentiments in the mind
Imbued with dark thoughts you sourced
From reveries that in your house drove you blind.
To the hilt you moved the feet
Grown sore as you bore boredom
With disdain in pain to treat
Fantasies frivolously in your kingdom.
Don hats of cats and bats
When fantasies syncopate
In the mind that rains dogs and cats
As bonkers you go within your paltry pate.
Ashamed you feel to entertain fantasies
In hidden heavens where you expiate
Dreams society condemns as their ecstasies
Guilt of wit fantasies you ingratiate.
You walk with your head down
Wandering in circles as fantasies heckle
The shame you blame on your town
Where echoes of injustice inhabit an invincible spectacle.
Douse doubt and booze carouse
When fantasies take over
Realms of possibilities in the blouse
You decide insinuates insensitivity in a courier clover.
When sleep sets you free
You feel aghast you dreamt
Fantasies at you laughed with glee
As you felt no values lived in lampoon lessons learnt.
Why you dare ask fantasies hunt your brain
Inside the house you determine to vacate
When fantasies in your mind strain
The daylight you no longer placate.
Gasp in terror and horror
When sheets on your bed breathe fire and fury as the dead
In droves unleash an odious odour
That shakes floundering foundations in your homestead.

The new year speaks in humble tones,
Joy comes to tweak but not alone.
Happy lives here as joy transcends,
Go with good cheer as work attends.
Do what you will to stay the course,
Feel how you feel yet know your cause.
There comes a time when all thoughts rhyme,
No voice can mime true peace that chimes.
Seek to be still that truth may come,
Learn to purge will that love may drum.
Choice starts the flow of happy days,
Poise finds what grows bright rainbow rays.
See warm flavours in journey fare,
Love finds harbour through trials and cares.
Learn to be true with humble quest,
It's up to you to live full zest.
When death comes round to take you home,
Sight sacred grounds where love can roam.

Couplet
Mist in the rain,
Yield of sad gloom.
Lines stretch old pains,
Opt death of blooms;
Come to know this,
Art of vain voice;
Lost in a bliss.
Flight of sure noise;
Lift the dead sigh,
Ask for new grime;
Vice knows a high,
Oil chokes cheap chimes;
Use then a noose,
Rush set words loose.

I breathe love,
not the everyday one that's quick to flee.
Just come close to inhale its sweetness,
and savour its flavours.
Then you will know that emotions can twirl,
not on a dancing floor,
but will sweep you off your feet and fly you like a kite.
Just pull up a chair to share your cheers!
Then your head will swirl.
You'll walk in the clouds.
Radiance will be painted on your face.
As you discard the one you knew for my love, that's new.

Alliteration
They come to her hungry - hopeful
To be fed facile fantasy, a script he held
Stowed in boyhood through decades
Recessed where sweating shame dwelled
Invisible while he achieved accolades
Gridiron big man outperform boastful
Invited him - initial meeting innocent, ice cream
Daddy intrigued by her earnest licking nimble
Turquoise tip of nose - How is it him she chose!
Cheerful, charming, character a pure miracle
Bulging cheeks, bubblegum rubber musky rose
Blonde polished cup pours cordial ruse supreme
She is melting, delicate, lacking, needs guidance
Developed via his worldly wisdom, operation infuse
Gifts to uplift her, mould her to become recognised
As his arm or appendage, entrenched, morning muse
Showoff chattel mantelpiece trophy, triumph prized
Afloat in alter ego, dazzled by desire, her vibrance
By her childish chat chuffed - heart tackled
Tables tipped like scales, nubile ponytail smile
Untied ribbons rewind wrongs, forgiveness fulfils
Putty, petty criminals are tethered, put on trial
Paying a penance for their filth, provision spills
Pirated pockets prescribe her opiate tranquil
Sheathed in subtle saccharine mystique, as he prefers
Entranced by her emptiness, he creates facets suitable
Cherry topped toffee coffee scoop serves saturation
Crushable ribs, jutting hip bones, bird fragile beautiful
Flutters fast on fathering parts, orgasmic exaggeration
Favourite flavour - thousand sprinkles what’s his is hers

Mulligatawny, soup for you,
Uniquely, peppered, seasoned through,
Lots of ingredients, we might use,
Lentils, a mustard seed or two,
Interesting flavours, we might choose,
Garlic, chillies, tamarind too,
Adapting, finding, something new,
Trial and error, tastes good, it's true,
Always learning, that's what we do,
Warming, nourishing, filling too,
North, South, East, West, the whole world through,
Your soulful bowl, of poet's stew.
