Best Horde Poems

Neither a fable, 
Nor a tale, 
This is a fact,
A story to tell,
To everyone, female and male.
To generations, younger and frail.

About a threat, a monster from the East,
That struck the world like a beast,
Attacked Europe by cold and mist,
Oceans of horsemen, millions at least,
Ravaged cathedrals,...

THE MALEVOLENT GOLDEN HORDE
By Roy Merritt

They rode out over the Asian steppes their ponies hooves flashing
Their arrows taking wing their blades brutally slashing
A river of blood they left in their horrid wake
Their victims cursing their gods for those they did forsake
They went along the Urals...

A Horde of Haiku

A horde of Haiku
Is what will be found when you
Read all of mine through.

What if embittered
And all your patience is lost
It could be costly.

Leaves are on branches
Cattle exist on ranches
Are there some to spare?

(Can questions be part of haiku?)

Books do have pages
And...

Rider comin' up behind me

Ragged ear pony shows message is important

As he draws alongside
I
indicate food in my saddlebag
hand across the reins
and

jump...

Its that time of year
we'll try to be of good cheer

as the store opens at dawn
and we rush in with a yawn

to elbow through the discord
a part of the thronging horde

anxious to spend,
hoping that in the end

we'll have bargains at last
for another consumer Christmas....

Overrun with war and uncontrolled leaders,
Our world becomes more dangerous each day.
dishonest politicians, criminals and the media
Survive by their falsehoods at play.

 Bible believers preach, that the end is near
Our world as a whole is beyond reform.
God will eradicate all which is wicked
By his fire...

I walk alone among the horde
In the universe city of all sorts
Mermaids and gorillas and elves

These once beautifully masked
Only lure the heart to be drown
In spiritual cacophony of bar beach

Those ugly bibliophiles impassive
Engrossed in their forest of leaflets
Broke off branches of intimacy

Strange beings from outer...

Stored and Keep In A Horde

Trump stored things up in a big horde,
And now we no longer ever can afford,
When he does loom,
What we see is doom;
Regarding things that we once adored.

Horde of Each Chord for My Lord

What I had heard about a horde,
Of those who played each chord;
On instrument;
Much meant;
Always had done it for the Lord.

One day …
I offered you a compromise,
But you went riding by,
Upon your high, high horse,
With your nose up in the sky.

One day …
I offered you a get-out clause,
But you went riding by,
Upon your high, high horse,
With your nose up in the sky.

One day …
You will...
