Best Jaws Poems

Out of the burrows and hedges and dreys
Heads began bobbing and eyes were agaze.
Rumours were twittered and grunted and squealed:
‘The combine is coming to harvest the field!’
The moles and the voles and the rabbits and hares
All hurried and scurried and scattered in pairs.
The hedgehogs and...

A couple of weeks ago I fell in love
OK, I will come clean and I will admit it
I’ve finally found the one I’ve been looking for so so long
I open the door and you are there
All this time you’ve been sitting patiently waiting for me
Waiting...

So you thought you were the stuff, ruff, tuff couldn't get enough. Wheeling, dealing, even stealing, trying to get rid of that low feeling. Wanting to be rich but there's a hitch, it's a straight *****, you run into a glitch, so you switch, turn...

He watched her walk away that day
The tears ran down his nose
Her walk was frisky from behind
She knew just how to pose

He recalled those soft summer nights
When they would ride 'til dawn
He'd rub her shoulders gently then
'Til all the ache was gone

Then they'd stand high...

Wrestling the wreckage, I'm fading into darkness unknown.
My head is going straight to voicemail, missing calls from home.
These veins are erratically static, strung out on a backseat,
but the memory of music shall comfort me.
I am so scared, but trapped in such melody.
A bitter-sweet, temporary goodbye;
there...

She was my virtual secret lover 
who staked a claim on me; it was her choice.
Enshrouded in intense obscurity
I never saw her face or heard her voice.

She spoke to me in silent words of yearning
inscribed in coloured ink on fragrant notes
attached to each a petal...

I have no wings only cold feet of clay
And I'll never touch the farthest round sky
Days come quickly and pass along the way
Forgotten and silent, no one asks why
My dreams will never be rendered again
They all died in the hollow of my mind
As fragments dispersing...

No one knows the joy you bring
They wish you weren’t around
The neighbor’s cat was just a “thing”
That moved and made a sound

It’s clear to see, you meant no harm
You thought it liked to play
To suggest, your transfer, to a farm
Well that was harsh to say

And,...

In cold winter air, I tread to the beach 
Looking for things that I think I need 
A shell of some kind, washed up jellyfish 
To the creaky shack, looking for things I missed 

I crack open the door and the warmth hits my cheeks...

He was drenched, his hair plastered to his head;
dark eyes burned from sweat that ran salty rivulets down his red face.
Inflamed, and throbbing in all his straining parts, he panted hard.
She, his midnight vision, spurred him on. . . . 

Her skin was moistened with...

On the edge of town, in a painted house, with unclad shades of gray
the north winds claim the somber dawn, on a dismal winter day
The trees bend low and the sun peeks in, as he slowly leaves his bed
Then with rote routine, the coffee perks....

Master of the sea
Smells blood from miles away
Swims with dominance
Sharp serrated teeth devours
Naive humans viciously...

Its huge jaws can break any cage,
The dark deep blue world is its maze.
Drops of blood make it insane;
It can chase you like a train.
It's megalodon - don't get engage.

Darkness surrounds me, obsesses me now.
I face the devastating power, feeling my strength draining.
I can smell the evil, as my insides roar a warning shot,
But lust for the dark has taken control.

How quickly our resolve can drain away.
Only hours ago I gathered with a congregation...
