Best In The Cart Poems

I know you have heard many love stories, some that melt your heart
Can’t tell you about mine but you gotta know that love is still stronger
I never had to remember all it all started, cause I threw it in the cart
But there is one I...

I wanted to bake a cake
but found I had no flour
off to the miller I went
alas he said I have none

the farmer didn't bring
any wheat for me to mill
he asked me to go and see
why he had not been along

I went to see the farmer
but...

The rotten apple in the cart,
And lowest of the low,
A waste of space, a waste of time,
And not a joy to know,
A heartless witch, a nasty troll,
A trouble-making shrew,
The creature from the Black Lagoon,
And pile of doggy do,
A hateful, wicked bag of slime,
A monster hated...

RAF navigator Ron Day and I took of from Banff, Scotland,
I was in the RAAF, an Australian, and we flew in formation:
40 Mosquitos to attack German ships in Norway land,
In a harbour, Porsgrunn, but then came an acclamation.

“Bandits three o’clock! “,  and so we...

Christmas in hot humid July,
No clouds seen in the bluest sky.
I shop and buy and cannot stop,
From one shop to another shop.

Why? My three-year-old grandson
Who is the world under the sun.
So, Christmas is all year round;
I do get run-down I have found.

I don't mind spending...

It is very impressive to go westward
in an early morning of midwinter,
because you will see a full moon 
that you have forgotten for a while
in the middle of the western sky.

[The westward moon is, perhaps, 
the one that Li T’ai-Po
who was bewitched by
and delighted by...

I have always loved to write 
real…romantic rhymes
but now I have to feel free to 
form a fantastic freeverse
with my creative caps on and my 
pleasant pen and pad
I am doing this, drawing words 
from the well of wild words.
To flow in this fabulous fountain,
all...

Forever in a day, my heart is slowly fading away.
A victim to time i cant hold my tears any longer.
Slice my cheeks and burn a hole through my soul. 
I surrender
Scorned by my own follies. 
Victim of my own misdirection. 
Let me drown in a...

Dust is blown by the wind
As the coffin where lies
The corpse that was dearly beloved
Is transported in the cart
To the final resting place

Last Minute

The old lady went to the thrift store. 
She found the row of coats, 
and looked for just the right tags. 
The color of the day. 
She bought everyone that she could afford. 
There were nine in all. 
Then she pushed her cart…
toward hats...

Since the day I was conceived, her delicate hands have held me. 
Since the day I was created, her hands floated my first endeavor. 
At the point when the tears started to rain, her hands covered me. 
She has made it a priority to facilitate...

That was an extraordinary Christmas for Santa Claus,
his twentyfifth year of wintry journey without any pause.
He decided to make it a special celebration of gifting on his part
to the children adorably unique presents, he’d carry in the cart.

In colorful foils he packed with care the...

 Looking at that roast in the cart
 I savor its taste even now.
 Yet never thinking that for my part
 When I will cook it...or even how.


 But I take it to the checkout lane
 With all the other items...

“Death to Caesar!!!”

“What!!  What did you say???”

I said:  “Breath to Caesar!!”
“Long and healthy and contented breath.”

“So which of his Legions are you a part of?”

“OH!  God, if there is one, they call us the freezing legion.
“See these fingers, well where they used...

Ancient sinister fires dwell in the savage creator's eye,
Soon his fire starter will be coming for a second try,
Choosing to believe, that which cannot be seen cannot be rude,
A cloak and dagger God who spies on the prey but is not viewed, 
Content to let...
