Best Great White Way Poems


I Have Become a Predatory Great White Shark
I once was here, then in the blue ocean,
I once was dry, then thrown into commotion. 
I had no clue, for I was in the complete dark,
but I was becoming a GREAT WHITE SHARK!

Just a wee baby was I at five feet in length,
I have...

The Great White Pumpkin
The Great White Pumpkin
     By Dane Smith-Johnsen

Ghostly Pumpkin dull and white 
Plans to give a ghastly fright.
Rough and tough his wrinkled skin
Mesmerizing twenty men.

Soon “Big Buddy” comes around.
Cuts a circle in his crown.
Jagged teeth and fearsome smile
Eyes and eyebrows carved in...

Depression Is a Great White Shark
Depression is a great white shark
who navigates the green sea of my emotions
ravaging parts of my aching heart
with his teeth absorbed in bitterness and loneliness
leaving behind shipwrecks of life struggles
and broken relationships in his wake...

Great White Shark
stay away from the water deep,
our great white shark thinks i'm nice n sweet, 
the terror of the deep n wide,
perhaps relate to suicide,
on the west coast the widows weep,
around ol Perth swift death does sweep,
to just be bit in halves,
by a monster shark that...

Premium Member The Great White Fleet
Teddy Roosevelt wanted the world to meet
the might of the United States with the “Great White Fleet”.
This naval fleet of ships sailed around the world.
They voyaged to where so many different flags were unfurled.
This country became a world power, and was not about to sit...

Great White Buffalo
The one that got away
A girl who turned heads anywhere
Oh how I wish she would stay
As all could see we were the perfect pair

Sadly though she left without chase
And I could only watch perfection go
Mourning to see her flawless face
Combined with her natural glow

Reality struck...

Rebirth of the Great White Wolf
The echoes of the wind tell a story of the great white wolf,
Born of the stars, she chose to become human, to find the heart to be,
To be free, to realize in the moment of time, she was alive.
Until every incarnation she found her best...

Premium Member There Stood a Great White Horse
I looked, behold, there stood a great white horse;
Its rider had a lethal, silent bow.
And on his head, a crown, rough-hewn and coarse,
And there he went, a-conquering his foe.

And lo, there came another horse, bright red;
Its rider reaped the peace and sowed discord
So great that...

The Great White Queen - a Poem For Imbolc
I dreamed of a Great White Queen, and she
Came galloping through the snow
'I come for the one who called for me'
Said she, 'did you call me?' 'No!'
For I was afraid, as all good men be
Who into the woodland go

I dreamed of a Great White Queen,...

The Great White Throne
When Christ was crowned in heaven,
Upon The Great White Throne,
The Holy Spirit descended;
The Apostles no longer alone.
As they left the upper room
For Pentecost had come,
They spread the Good News;
Christ a second time would come.

Christ’s mission in the Holy Place,
As our High Priest above,
Took place after...

The Great White Shield
Held prisoner under His Stars, 
I have fallen under the shadows of THE “Great White Shield”.
At a distance, those shimmering lights covered over me.
Built on THE highest plains, I stand parallel even when His rains come down.
My wall stands tall as my fate is promised...

Premium Member Grandma Attacks Great Whites
I was swimming in the ocean enjoying it so much
I back floated and relaxed with my cousins Mat and Hutch
All of a sudden Mat broke my dreamy thoughts with a scream
The water choppy, he was carried swiftly up stream

Two great whites were fighting over which...

Though crocodiles may steal their thunder
But all surfers know

When kangaroos line up Down Under...
