Best Landed Poems

I slipped on a teardrop and landed in muck.
No inkling had I of my future bad luck.

The tear I had cried started out, oh, so small
I’d felt little need to be crying at all.

But crying that one single tear was enough
To bring to me to...

an eagle hovers
swoops down to a tranquil place ~
mission accomplished...

They trickled down my cheeks in steady streams
     and blotting was no use, the dam gave way.
As tears continued, some fell to the floor.
     I bent to wipe them- and began to sway.

I lost my balance, and...

An alien landed in my thoughts today in the form of a gnat,
Right on the paper, it happened like that.
Not bothersome, not a worry at all,
Not big or fat or two feet tall.

Which is sometimes what happens when I see 
An alien from Planet X,...

the eagle has landed
standing guard on the remains
these courageous vets
sacrificed for our freedom
young hearts that rest neath tombstones


Written for the Bald Eagle in the Cemetery contest
and dedicated to all our veterans...

A fledgling reporter discovered the story of a lifetime
Tim O’Hara came upon an alien aircraft that had crashed
He took pity on the sole survivor who’d committed no crime
Helping him out of the strange orb that in a barren desert smashed 

Tim brought the alien home...

She landed on my moon,
Even though she was from Pluto
Too cold, to get too close
Her confusion kept us from fusing
She felt she shouldn’t feel this
So insisted I was an illusion
Yet and still kept intruding
She knew my light was to illuming to elude it
But too deep...

Plane has landed
Interrogated by customs for hours
Back on the plane again

I awaken after said storm thrown weakened am I
In awe in wonderment as to where I espy

Fervent to silent as I witness this breathing space
As I slowly rise my tall in this seeing succulent heaven place

Barren beaches of gold amidst greened hue
Hearing cresting of thundering...

It vanished
The chain
To this heart of stone
Just gone

Slept for a time
In your realm it seeks
Not words nor touch
But the silence of your romance

And I am drawn
Like a spirit with wings
To a passion reaching out
That calls my name

And you of all Kings
Haunted a Queen so far
And...

I FELL ONE NIGHT, WELL IT WAS DARK!
THEN WOUND MY WAY INTO A PARK
IT'S PEOPLED BUT WITH KANGAROOS
WHO HAVE LOST ONE OR MORE OF SHOES

 BETTER THAN LOSING PANTS, I GUESS
WHO CARES! SIT DOWN! PUT ON YOUR DRESS!
TIME FOR LUNCH. OH BOY, WE GROWL
SOUP IS...

Today, I feel her-
she alerts her soul-mates, their storm-
colored bodies. She..cries,

her wings contracted, 
a honk mingled with a " I am
amongst you", and chimes

so dampened, they toll
like Hemingway's Bell. A Goose,
Canadian- a wife-

is in my dried throat 
this morning, within the drops 
of the shower;...

It is all happening in a vacuum,
This impossible grand illusion
Burning in its full spectrum
Never meant for our narrow vision

Our spaceship built itself in orbit
Launching satellites to add to its moon
The descendants of a crash-landed astronaut
Our noses always trying to balance a spoon

The atmosphere’s aqueous delusion
Allows...

A flying saucer landed 
In a farmer's fallow field. 
It had come from far away, 
Beyond Orion's starry shield. 
The aliens were mystified. 
They giggled and they squealed. 

The cows were in the pasture, 
Chewing on their cud. 
They watched the flying saucer 
As it...

The Aliens have landed

This is the third day of the new, year and days are equally dark
and miserable as days before the fireworks and drunk people
filling streets with hoarse screams, scaring dogs and cats who 
do not understand the collective madness that grips people by
celebrating...
