Best Hugger Poems


Premium Member Hugger

He woke and he got down on the creaking knees

He didn't know if God listened but  tried

His grandson was in a coma and God was asleep

But he said the prayer but  was afraid of the silence

God was the great politician in the sky

And his son Jesus would listen to the poll

When there was trouble God was the first name

Grabbing  his coffee he humbly turned to God

In his eyes it was humbly but he loved the sugar

As he sat stirring and  sweetened  thoughts 

The prayers flowed with his coffee

"Maybe God only listens to the regulars"

And he definitely wasn't one

It was  years and God was famished

The whispered prayer ended with death and the anger

"Why did you not take me"

"I have lived and gladly would take the grandson's place"

The pastor warmed up and the sisters hummed

The cup spilled over as the prayer of the faithful

He became a hugger and he covered each drink 

And the Irish believed in wake and liquor

He hugged the people tight and the salt became a scab

And God left him there with his drink

Tree Hugger

I'm getting sick of tree huggers 
always hugging trees
this kinda dumb
seems pretty stupid to me
i said trees aren't meant to be hugged dude 
he just turned and said screw you
and then he said you're just jealous because we're getting married.
so i went over there and punched him in the eye
and then i set the tree on fire then it died
and i walked away as he cried that was the end of the tree hugger's life.

Yes, I am a tree hugger
And I do so love the trees.
Trees give us negative ions;
Oxygen to breathe.

Lovely wooden sentinels;
Our siblings are the trees.
Though they have no legs to walk
They move within the breeze.

The trees see many curious things;
Perhaps hear even more.
They’ll share their secrets if
It’s what you ask them for.

Listen with your soul to leaves within the wind.
You’ll be back to hear more, again and again.


Ramblings of a Confused Tree Hugger Part 4

Its another day
just like every other day
not a lot to say

winter snow is on the ground
wind  is blowing all around
the trees sleeping sound

There leaves are missing
there is no time for fishing
spring is worth wishing

new life will emerge
years of memories  are purged
soon the seasons merge

Ramblings of a Confused Tree Hugger Part 10

The Earth won't stand still
she 'll purge herself of her Ill
soon the earth will heal

you can't change a thing
there may not be a new spring
earth one day will sing

I’ll never understand
people who destroy trees.
Those stationary counterparts to humans,
have so many stories and wisdom to share.

Like the lines on faces;
each limb speaks volumes, 
about its personality.  
Each curl, a journey; with each twist, 
a curve ball is thrown its way and 
it’s forced to detour.

Where the squirrel and bird see real estate; 
I see a being, ecstatic about life.
A sentinel and friend, guarding my yard, 
nurturing my inner child.

The whispering leaves on wind, 
Sing their songs; lull me into a deep sleep.
Creating shade for cooling and shadows that,
jettison my imagination,
on a journey through timeless universes.

When I hug a tree, I feel love; 
they are providers, 
generously sharing their ionic breath, 
with all life.

From poet to painter; 
trees are friends and inspiration.  
We share similar bodies and limbs, 
but tree roots are more solid than humans, at times.
They need not roam; nor are they restless.

They defend when Sol’s angry temper rages; 
we cower near trees, for safety and tree faces, 
are charred a crispy black; still they stand guard.
They will heal and prepare for his next tantrum.

Life giving breath, are the trees and 
they work hard for our respect.  
No, I will never understand why people destroy,
 such souls, as trees.

once a tree hugger from warren

awakened from too much snorin

setting out on a lark

to the nearest state park

he sent all the birds a soarin.

If you’re going to hug trees
you had best wear a shirt
having really long arms
knuckles dragged in dirt
surely won’t do much harm

If you’re going to hug trees
then you’d best not mind bugs
‘cuz sooner or later
they will return the hugs
below your equator

If you’re going to hug trees
shower after you toil
get used to the itches
that poison ivy oil
will soak through your britches

If you’re going to hug trees
and you’re not a jogger
then be a good tipper
so Ole the logger
won’t show you the chipper

Ramblings of a Confused Tree Hugger Part 14

the snow piled up quickly
another day of waking to work
 I think I'll clean my house 
when I get home
I've cleaned it 5 times already
I don't know why
nobody ever comes over
after awhile you just say
 what the hell
I think I'll dig my car out tomorrow
I have to get a new pair of gloves
I bought these cheap ones
at the walmart 
only two weeks ago
damn gloves
I think I'll get black ones
next time
instead of these crappy blue ones
Damn I'm thinking about you again
hope your warm
huddled some where 
in a cave
or a log
Your probably snoring away
somewhere.
well thinking about snoring
time for bed.

Ramblings of a Confused Tree Hugger Part 9

The dream in my head would not go away
The thoughts of hunting season
 invaded  my head
what if hunters got you
I could just see someone 
making a hat with your fur
like Daniel Boon
or one of those early pioneers
It was just the other day
I herd the dogs
 yesterday I went out in the snow looking
for you
I herd some shots
I fear the worse

Ramblings of a Confused Tree Hugger Part 12

when I got to work today
the lock was frozen
 I struggle,Finally
I  got the door unlocked  
then It dawned on me
I haven't seen anyone 
or talked to anyone
for two weeks now
wait maybe 3?
let me see
last person I talked to
was Dr Auston
she stopped by the lab
now I remember
i really need to call some one 
maybe tonight when I get home
I see someone has left a cat in here
I hate cats
damn
I can't keep my mind of him 
I wonder where he's at

Ramblings of a Confused Tree Hugger Part 7

I got up early 
to look for you
the wind was blowing
as it  usually does
in the morning
by the clearing
I thought I found your tracks
but the snow quickly covered them
when you walk through winter woods
there is a silence
like death that surounds you 
like a blanket
covering you up. 
I walked for about an hour
with no luck
my ears hurt
my feet are cold
I think I'll have some coffee
when I get home
and take a hot bath

Ramblings of a Confused Tree Hugger Part 11

I walked to work to day 
it was snowing hard
I walked the road this time
hoping to find you
I was thinking
 your carcass would be
laying there 
on the side of the road
vulture food
food for the worms and maggots
I walked all the way to work
in the snow
I could hardly see
so maybe I missed you
I stopped by the store
bought another bottle
bought the Trader too
I was thinking I would build something
for you
to live in when you came back.
