Best Haply Poems

Play Not A Dirge When I Am Gone

Play not a dirge when I am gone;
light no candles, not even one.
A treasured poem would be enough  
to mark my end when curtain’s drawn.

Hold no sad wakes to honor me
some happy poems, I’d rather be 
recited...

Memoirs of one unloved

I hear them refer to me as “it” or “the fetus”
Some underdeveloped miniature human, with no established status
For I am trapped in some fluid, apparently I know nothing
But, as strange as it may seem, I do suspect something
I cannot tell my senses...

The moving finger writes and having writ
moves on. And that's the bitter core of it.

So did you scheme to mold we are so base,
like you're disgusted in the human race?

And was it the mirror that then charged through
as you sought an image to seem you...

Written as a tribute to a popular song ... can you guess which one?

When wak’st from slumber shall I be
Fain present to lay next to thee
and whither shall my sojourn be
methinks that thou would’st walk with me
much ale beset me to the ground
laid next to...

Pause, ponder as only man can, 
Freed from mind's prison, what-if's pall, 
Know, heaven hails a happy man. 

Right things do happen to man, when 
He hearkens to soul's silent call, 
So, pause and ponder as ye can. 

Do take a panoramic pan, 
View that...

Adulterous besieging capstone damnation
exploitation foists groping, heaving
insidiously jerking
knowingly lunges
machinations notoriously nymphomaniacal 
officiating penile quests
rapaciously, sadistically 
tenaciously, unstoppably 
vasocongested wickedness 
Xerses yawped zeolously.

ascendent civilizations extensively gouged, 
impailed, kindled, murderous outrages 
quashing sacred urges, women yearned.

Versatile thematic refrain punctuating nubiles...

Here comes a mom duck a crackling, 
All her flock close by following— 
All of the chicks seventeen 
That makes alive wetland scene. 

In fresh-water swamps comb ducks breed,
Togetherness their sole creed 
Till they disperse in wet season, 
So scorching when gets the sun.

O to have endless stretch ‘pon earth to roam,
Return to rest, to roost, to my sweet home.

Sweet home, forever a mighty magnet
To go back to an ever open gate,

Its awe and allure never once on wane,
Nor depends on what it might well contain.

For, home’s no...

Twenty First Century Civilization Gone Askew...?

Methinks perchance man

Fair Angels of Parnassus, Muses Nine,
That on its snowy summit gay recline
With other gods, are haply the cynosure
Of poets whom inspires your sacred ewer,
O'erflow'd with the ambrosial Hippocrene,
The haunt of daughters of Mnemosyne, 
And Father Jove who loves these nymphets most,
And of that gelid crest...
