Best Funnily Poems
He Was Once a PoliticianThat's not my elephant! my father said to me
Mine is pink with wings, funnily, he likes to eat spaghetti
I think I'll call him Ella, named after a girl I knew
We danced at the 2nd graders ball, her dress was so see through
My father was once...

Backhand
"Backhand"
You have turned me
inside out, cut open
like a tennis ball
I used to beat backhand
along with the racket
hard against the garage wall
To make sense of it all
as a child, the grief stolen
all too swiftly and replaced
by the caretaking seeds planted
where grew the weeds, to newly...

Poot-Toot UniversityCan't believe I'm penning this mess,
but I must address the gifted poetess,
Jan Allison has a degree from the
distinguished Poot-Toot University,
she has a PhD in Fartology.
An expert she is,
and, gee whiz,
anyone who writes of farts
so funnily,
is the "Queen of Flatulence,"
a PoetrySoup decree!
And yes, I know some...

The Story of HistoryThe Story of History
Beyond those beaten days’ depleted daylight
Beyond the bathos of a pandemic bondage
With the resurrected sashay’s charmed night
Down in the dumps at the pretentious proscenium
A shy orchestration sans bark and bite
Afloat in the...

Helena - A Midsummer Night's DreamOh spite, oh hell – to the Hell in my own name too!
The hell in love, the hell in romance, the hell of all men!
He being in my name as well of course… as if I’m made of men!
Do they control me? Na… funnily enough...

Humans Like UsPeople should be treated
First as humans
Before anything else.
I take you as you are
But first as human.
For we were first humans
Before we became all-what-not
That we have become today.
So I would be glad
To be treated first
As human before anything else.
As human I enter with...

November Frozen Fish Find- fishing finds
I’m foolishly fishing in the frost
freshwater follows fondly
foreign fishing forgets funnily
finest fishing feels furiously
fair fishing falls freely
fresh fishing flies fabulously
Yet it’s so cold
In mid-November
funny fishing fails fortnightly
fat fishing finishes fatly
fast fishing flows frozen forcefully
full fishing fills finally
fine fishing finds foolishly far

The Sea and Me>The sea and me
By Stanley Russell Harris
Poetry soup honorable mentioned.
(The new mad author)
I like to be beside the sea.
Calm or rough a delight to see.
If calm, I’ll paddle in the sea.
But swimming, no you won’t find me.
I never really learnt to swim.
Was no sea where...

Gold FishGold fish
On my vision and swum one
Sprawls the heart of those humans
Ah! They say funnily
Not knowing my stay
Why? In such a way.
What matters only viewing outside colour?
Innerly they knew me I’m fish ever
They want to keep me in aquarium
Construing a four wall of transparent
Limiting...

News Flash, Race Is a MythNews flash! Race, it doesn't exist,
We're not defined by our skin.
We are not defined by our hair or our eyes,
Nor the houses that we live in.
News flash! Race, a flawed science theory,
It's a meaningless backward thought.
It should not be given the light of day,
And it...

Trying To SleepTrying to sleep
I will lie down make no fuzz think of nothing
And relax, the past is a foreign country no need
To go there, it is like raking yesteryears leaves.
So, you feel hungry too late to get up now anyway
No food will not kill you have...

It's FunnyIt's funny,
when we are asked questions and we don't seem to get it. we end up only to find out that the
answer lies within the alphabet of A-Z.
It's funny,
how often we wonder how much is in our bank account or how much you dream...

WhyI`m SICK of People who laugh at me,
Sick of them MOCKING me.
Don`t they know it makes me feel Bad?
Being Embarassed infront of them ...
Makes me feel all alone.
I feel Useless with them laughing at me,
with them looking at me Funnily.
I tried to endure it but...

Boko Haram TerroristsBoko haram terrorists
Times without number
A neighbourhood unsettling with a bomber,
Their grabbed territories
Zones of a thousand worries!
A people in panic
Piteously plan their escapes route,
Their pursuers, a manic,
Who must them funnily shoot!
It’s a horizon of unthinkable sleep
And the digging of graves not decently deep:
It’s a constant brandishing...
