Best Float Poems

wooden sea- rafts float
  
     as the hardest beads

        the mildest prayers

offer layered dahlias

   for Holy Queen's regatta

When you float in outer space
with no one else around,
it gets a little lonely
and you start to miss the ground.

The familiar touch of Mother Earth
and friends to share the news,
is the kind of isolation
that can give someone the blues.

But you don't have to be in...

Let me wade 
deep into the water
with all my clothes still on.
Let my body 
ripple in the space I occupy.
Let me swim 
in the murky water
and dip my skin 
in the unrefined.

They seem much too eager 
to have me sit very still 
for long 
long...

Come float with me on velvet sound


Come float with me on velvet sound
as music wafts the evening air
With melodies of hope now found
and timeless days we both shall share

The setting sun of beacons bright,
so full of life and amber glow
Does dance the heavens curtained light,
brought...

Rise above
Float free
Beyond the clouds
Devoid of negativity

Eyes closed gently 
Drifting soft and slow
Absorbing the calm tranquility
Anxiety let go

Bathe in the warmth
Of the sweet smiling sun
Float ….breathe slowly
Bleakness be gone

Float….be only in the moment
Release your whole being of woe
Inhale peace and pure air
Eyes closed….float and just...

I see you float drenched in my tear,
when my heart melts, flows like a stream.
You drift away to niche not near,
at the edge of my broken dream.

As specks of dream drown in despair,
I see you float drenched in my tear.
My silent sorrow I can’t share,
when...

Hello beautiful ice float
You remind me of a double scoop
From the Dairy Queen
I wonder if there is a waffle cone
Under the water

Hello gorgeous ice float
I wonder if you are the one
Who took down the Titanic
And drowned people who did not have a chance
I wonder if...

With you on the Ground…

And I floating…

Every once in a while

A breeze lifts me

The clouds hide me

The sun warms me

And you tug on my

String and I join you 

On the ground

Ever so briefly

Until there...

It was one  of those 
Kind of afternoons
When ball games were heard
From open windows

And houses had porches
And porches had swings
Where voices murmured softly 
Into velvet humidity

It was the most precious of things
In the most treasured of times
It was a root beer float…
Kind of afternoon...

A big ‘floater’ lurked in the loo
He tried to remove this huge pooh
Poked it with a stick
It made him feel sick
So he fished it out with his shoe!

Inspired by the title of the song 'Float On' by the Floaters ... maybe I should...

The core of you 
Does not float like you think it does
It is anchored in what you believe 
You sometimes don’t fathom all of you  
Because you reject the reflection 
What your mind is telling you 
You refuse to acknowledge 
That at times floating...

Float above you 



My cat
Though small
Is a 
Mighty hunter.

Often trophies
She left
On my door
From her nightly stalking.

A robin that
Will never fly
Trilling couplets 
In cloud stained skies.

A mouse that will
 Never scurry
In the wood-grain walls.
Chanting lays
About the stacking of 
Heroic cheese.

On a dark night
When i heard

Janey Jane ran around with Rocky Rock
Ohh was he handsome, the girls did they flock
Swiftly, Jane’s hair she did cut
Kay ran, laughing off her butt
Jane then smirked, as Kay fell from the dock
