Best Flops Poems

If I were a millipede

         The only thing I wanted was slippers

Flip flops slip off slowly 
My barefoot touches the warm sand
Cold waves crash against my body
I feel the hot sun on my legs
Smell of salt water is in the air
The ocean breeze lightly blows through my hair

Seashells sparkle covering the ocean floor
Tiny pepples hiding in...

A belly flop, I was dared to do
After my beer, I headed for the pool-
A diving board jump!
Enormous splash- all my plump
Bystanders drenched, Me- feeling like a fool.

Next time they want a boisterous cheer,
Hopefully not until next year-
No more jelly belly
Stay away from the deli
I'll...

Flip-flop,flip-flop!

flip-flop,flip-flop!

a steady beating cadence

most annoying at times

whether from a distance

worse yet,when fast approaching

gives one cause to grit their teeth

until the noise moves on

becoming more and more silent

with each progressing

flip-flop,flip-flop....

Percy the peacock flaunts his colored tail,
Spreading gold wings like a Japanese fan
To excite a mate, a future peahen
Along the hall where children watch him sail.

Once, thrice, Percy struts a handsome display
With eyes blue, he looks around for a pick.
And ladies murmur of avian topic;
While...

mother's search the beach

for lost children and flip-flops

The Red Flops
 
Its baseball time in Boston Town
 Sure hope the team won t let us down
 Gonzales, Papi and Bobby V.
 Will surely a pennant bring.
 
But oh no the season came
 And all our players came up lame.
 Bailey never threw a...

In the shadow of the northern light
We stay indoors and bundled tight
Never even leave the house at night
For fear of freezin' to death

I want to go with you away someplace
Where the air doesn't hurt my face
We'll live like members of the human race
Where we don't...

I've got these deviant flip flops
Cheaply made, I will admit
But they're masters of torture
Though you may not give a sh_t

The right's thong attachment
Comes loose with every step
I've tripped so far 8 times
I've even had times I wept!

I reattach this toe stud
Every minute, or less, I'm...

snow covers green grass
with slippery ice crystals
no time for flip-flops

Real slippery slope
Landing hard on my backside
Fighting back the tears

no cause for laughter
broken bones are not a joke
planned ski trip postponed

sunlit magic
gritty hot sand
flip flops, umbrellas, 
The smell of suntan lotions
Ph30, Ph15, Ph-something else.

Ouch! Ouch! Ouch!
Burning of the feet
Where are my flip flops?
Who wore them?
Where did they go?

Where is my hat?
I am going to get burned.
You tan, but I will crisp up like a marshmellow
That...

Plain droplets plink downward risk-free.
Rain, that bristles on panes, weighty.
Rip-roaring, soaring, not boring,
as wind assists an outpouring.
Angled and claustrophobic dance.
Can’t see the light; cars take a stance.
Sky, a blue-gray, wiper flip-flops.
Shy, the soft pelts of ho-hum drops.

Flip flops and straw hat adorn him, beach wear suits him nicely
Kind is he to her as he scoops into a bucket measuring precisely

Casted are his piteous passions in sunstruck warm sands
Gently shaping and capturing her likeness, she is in skilled hands

Stooping over chin to...

FLIP-FLOP FLIP-FLOP FLIP-FLOP

GOING BAREFOOT FEELS FINE AT THE TIME
YEAH AND SHOES DO TOO
SOMETIMES I NEED SOMETHING LIGHT
SOMETHING NOT QUITE SO TIGHT
ONLY SANDALS WILL DO

OF THE PACK I HAD MY PICK
WISH I KNEW WHAT MAKES THEM TICK
AND GET A HANDLE ON
THESE MY BRAND NEW SANDALS

THEY DIDN'T...
