Best Idlers Poems


The Flowers Fall
That flowers fall

Like autumn comes and leaves begin to blush
Like rains confess the wild’s restraining souls
Screams the rowdy youth of such fragile rush
Roars our untamed minds from London to Seoul

Speak love, speak hate and He may laugh at thee
At crazed and blinded fixations like fame
But...

Premium Member Tomorrow
Ah, the Sphinx-like mysteriousness  
Of tomorrow. While not promised
An invitation to new discoveries and epiphanies
Zest for lifers, optimists, idlers all await 
With breathless anticipation
 
Tomorrow, like death and taxes, is inevitable
Auspicious. It's fragrance more potent 
Than a whiff of sandalwood. It tastes as sweet...

Wealthy Cats
A wealthy old cat lover named Rover
To save money called his idlers over
Gave dough to his cats
Who became very fat
And slept under his bed and its cover

Once rich they became very slim
Enrolled in fanciest gym
Forgot  about taxes
Enjoyed expensive waxes
'til their pile-o-change became dim 

The...

Premium Member Small Town Nostalgia
Towering sycamores embraced, forming canopies over the streets.
Crime was unknown - (three part-time cops patrolled their beats.)
'Cept for teens in hot-rods who were bent on an occasional toot!
Folks were entertained as cops chased them in hot pursuit!

There was a Fourth of July parade with fireworks...

The World Is a Clown
The world is a clown looking at you up and down
The world is a clown; the plane is about to touchdown
Madness in the East, madness in the west
And the north and the south are gallivanting in their Sunday best
The world is a clown just look...

Mad Woman Walk
Walk see the mad woman a come
Walk a come she just a come
Listen to how she talk she is not one of us
She sound like an aristocrat and a sensational bureaucrat
The idlers screamed from the other side of the street

Marks man, guards man and all...

In Lyric Not Help Love
When lyric is not a groovy drama
the minds’ leads ail, 
and strain stepped-settle over paths
strive by darkness or hells
oh heart so gone
At dawn, by the shines sun 
In any target’s time  ...
infeasible the crowds seeking 
able being peace for dewy  
from sorrow, oh...

Sheeth Metal
I heard it from an anvil
the metal brookside churning
and fire brass inferno
that later took my silence inside a broken shadow
I heard it from an anvil
he spoke of words unweilding
like protozoa brooding
and elvin skin and tatoo freaks a smooching
paused from all the moods swings
to sway back...

Premium Member The Intruder
Idlers, paved  paths with active energies, purloining,  feigning amity.

Dodgy &  concealing past immoral dregs  by comradely, waspish mien.

Obdurately empowered by this stranger plucked from their nocturnal fantasies    
 
Wanton mistresses of countless broken walls in desperation for time.

Unbridled...

Bereft of Friendship
My friends are among the stars
Clearest of crystals, each of them a pearl,
Like drop of dew on the lotus leaf in sunshine:
You came into my life, filled it with joys unique
And just as suddenly left me and went away.
Abandoned me to face the crises of...

A Cup of Tea
I kept thinking what life would be like if someone invited me out for a cup of tea in the middle of the night, I kept thinking what life would be like if morning was evening and evening was night, and the stars lit up...

Premium Member Path To 'The Impossible'
Idlers, like electricity, choose to travel...
           the path of least resistance;

             meeting "The impossible"

Premium Member In the whispering silence of a moonlit night
In the whispering silence of a moonlit night,
where stars wink like old friends,
I drift along the river of my thoughts,
an unbound stream of consciousness,
Flowing through the landscapes of potential and purpose,
where dreams dwell like forgotten treasures.
Most of us,
shadows of our true selves,
live in shallow waters,
afraid...
