Best Flush Poems

My basket lifts from ground; I, eager, stand
inside it as I drift into blue air.
I see below - the slowly shrinking land,
above my head, a giant yellow pear.

She takes me high, and as I’m looking down,
I view the checkered rows of each green lawn
around the...

We who remember outhouses
consider flushing toilets
the next thing to heaven.

Yet, we know, in heaven—
no need to search—
they do not exist.
The Apostle Paul said, 
“We shall not all sleep,
but we shall all be changed.”

No freckles,
no cowlick,
no twisted bones,
no missing members,
no lack of understanding.

Questions will all be...

the sun rose lemon
wildflowers speckled the grass
marigold gardens

the skies were orange
with touches of red and mauve
the wind burst with sound

colorful birds sang
their mystery treetop songs
green days of summer...

Humanity so loved the poppy
That it made a chemical copy
But God knows what we need
And it isn't more weed
Which seems to make everyone sloppy!...

Told you never run fast, be at my side
while stroll; Now, let's go and sit near lakeside.
You know school is boring; in class I cried;
Nothing to learn there. Don't have friends, they lied
always talk in their mother tongue, they snide.
Saw in dream, they're punished with...

So it is my theory
there is nothing more cheery;
that first vision bleary,
that first feathered dearie...

Ooh, look!     One so leery...
It's a precious little Veery!


Mind the birder standing teary;
She's just shedding winter dreary.

Quick and forever to forget.
The aftertaste 
of those words and all nerves 
sobbing spasms and tears.
Quick and forever to forget....

I realize you were in a hurry,
to get into the john,
But sometimes one in a hurry,
forgets how fast
 these things can come on,
They say time and tide,

Evidently, neither does the desperate
need, for the good old "can"!
So, don't wallow in red embarrassment,
looking guilty...

dewdrops glisten as
         maiden tears on virgin leaves
                    soaked with betrayal

Dolly Parton sports a large bust
Which fills many men with pure lust
Well, maybe not "pure"

The beach was packed with bodies burnt bothered,
reeking of sweat, dried salt and sunburn cream.
The sea writhed and churned as the crowds gathered
to take a swim to beat the heat and scream.
The sky darkened as storm entered the scene.
The crowd panicked and rushed home in...
