Best Groovy Poems

She is a groovy, hippy girl.

     She loves that funky, trippy beat.

It is her hippy, trippy world!

     She is a groovy, hippy girl.

She dances funky, hippy twirls,

     and when she sits, she taps...

Come on over Ted said groovy Lucy
For tonight I’m feeling nice and juicy
Ted appeared unclothed 
With assets exposed
For the sake of a strawberry smoothie....

Feel fond feelings
Words weave willing
Bless bright billing


Love looks lovely
Glimpse gains groovy
Claim charms curvy


Profound play primes
Touch treasures time
Rapture reaps rhymes


Trust truth timely
Deed drills deeply
Feel fine fancy


Drool dreamy day
Peace placates play
Speak solemn say


Heal hurting heart
Spread succinct start
Craft charming cart


Begin bold brief
Groans grabbing grief
Bless bright belief


Word wealthy wit
Hurl...

Who needs a your highness or sire?
Hillary and Jeb should retire
Though them we can chuck   
The needle is still stuck  
As behind the curtain’s a liar!


Author's note:  Title inspired by Simon and Garfunkel's song.  For a dose of the 60's...

Oh, King David I think your groovy.
If You were here.
Unlike Your peers.
In spite the Years.
You would not go goofy.
May I meet You at the movies?
"Indeed." King David spoke,
Without malice.
"You have brought your crystal Ball."
Inside my Palace.
Wait a decade.
When everyone memorizes The Bible.
To counter-act The Liable.
And...

A boy at a drive-in movie
Thought it was all too groovy,
Til he went outside
And tried to hide
In a patch of Poison Oovy....

Orange lights shine from street lamps, 
orange lights shine on what is paved,
Something about the tail end of our conversation 
left me feeling slightly vague. 

This car has 
Translucent windows, 
like a submarine out at sea, 
the current swallows red headlights
while exhaling shiny, tipped waves...

Peace and love lots of slang man
I'm feeling groovy tonight
I was a flower child still stand
wishing we could all unite
although they protested
in their maxi dresses
and were getting arrested
I would've avoided those messes
mag wheels and jacked up cars
green shaggy carpet
matching kitchen appliances with bars
long hair and...

Somewhere once upon a time
In a place where there was no sunshine
and moonlight
Where there was no day and night
In a time when we were in between sleepiness
and awareness
Some friends of mine who had rode the wave of whirlwind
Walked along a fragrant alley
And crossed the border...

The grooves of her voice
Hum alive as she spins
Whirling hearts
Whirling minds
Reeling this way and that
Back again
Slow— a mistake— me but
Not me
Her but
Not her
And I’m thinking she’s something,
She’s the idea of tea
And rain
Snap! Fast like lighting,
Sharp tongue through my heart,
My bleeding heart
Pooled at my feet,
Urging,
Where are...

(alternately titled: lion eyes hide sharp claws
unless made irate, then yours truly 
bares his sharp talons 
on all of mine faux pas).

Aye attest tubby reincarnated
from one male Russian Blue
species Felis silvestris catus
named Morris if that gives a clue,
and during my fuzzy past
hence, asthma “Cats Cradle”...

groovy the vinyl
splendidly spinning slowly
going round and round

Bell-bottom blue jeans 
were the rage 
when I was that age
'tween twelve and fourteen.
With no money to spend 
on such foolish things,
our lives wouldn't end
without that latest trend.

But we knew how to make do,
and Mom didn't say no
when we just split the seam
of an outdated...

The youngish woman danced to a rollicking tune
                        Up early at quarter till nine, exhausted now
