Best Lay Down The Law Poems

Old Tom was wrinkled
His face full of care
A military blazer 
He'd always wear

Tom was a fighter
He'd boxed in the ring
He had gone to war
He'd fought for his King

His medals with pride 
He always wore
In the pub of an evening
He'd lay down the law

Every November
He went...

As the only large cat with a voice I roar from within my solitude
 Prowling with swagga and a side of attitude
 My voice is wild game's command
 Order in the kingdom is my superior demand
 Backed clearly by my teeth and claws
 They call...

The F-Bomb has been replaced

As the naughtiest word in the english language

By this new extremely naughty four letter word

Yup! You guessed it... SNOW!!!

The notorious S-Bomb!

Parents shudder when their wee one utters it in public

Oh the shame of it all

The parents try so hard to bring...

Mr Wiz, Munchkin Land
Be so kind to lend a hand...

Cartwheeling cottage? how daft is that
Landed quite safely, all level and flat
Some midget fellow said, who else heard that
I think ‘Wicked Westie’ might just have gone splat

Tin men and lions and blokes full of straw
Red shoes...

I feel like I’m blessed in this life by good eggs
But, of course, on occasion one’s rotten,
A good egg compares to a wine that has legs
The rare bad one is quickly forgotten.

A good egg just seems to slide down oh so nice
While a bad one...

Queen for a day what will I say to my subjects who are far away
Queen for a day people are waiting your majesty is saying where is she
Queen for a day I will be polite yet lay down the law 
Queen for a day that's...

it does have fewer calories than other similar generic poems)

 
Crimes of the future wait like raw sausages
Fat fingers in the eye of justice
Blind, inevitable, they climb greasy
Time is right around the corner in a...

Radiance, shining, illuminating translucency
sky's vast, expansive blue richoting and rivaling ocean views
loose limbs and bashful expression lay scattered across the placid sky
divinity fixed in a space unaffected by man
white clouds swirl, wrapping like ivy around golden gates.
 Ultraviolent inferno lay below while serine holy oceans...

Three sheets in the wind
And rubbed the wrong way
By a fair weather friend
You must seize the day

Let your hair down 
And lay down the law
Be the talk of the town
With your last hurrah

With all your high hopes
Few and far in between
Up against the ropes
Taking one...

Authority
Authority is a privilege
It is power mixed with rule
It’s control and domination
Oftentimes misused as tool
And when orders are not followed
When instruction is ignored
Then the charge will be defiance
Which will soon be underscored
For authority wants order
Yes, it will lay down the law
And expect your acquiescence
Whether or...

There’s a charming woodland creature
reputed to be wise
With a knack for spotting problems
with their eager, clever eyes

Keen and daring to be different
Turning heads through all degrees
They love imparting knowledge
showing off their expertise

And in amongst their hunting
firmly grasped by bill and claw
they hold a sense of...

In life so much is such a taboo,
too many things you ought not to do.
Do them anyway, just for the thrill,
right from the heart,
your soul,
your will.
People may gasp,disgust, dismay.
That'll just increase the secrets we play.
Wont be told what's right or wrong,
the world's just singing to...

It's your right to choose.
It's no love to lose.
Funny how life does go.
So, just say it's so.

Yes, she can't see it, 
so step up and be it.
For one tender moment...
go on, embrace her -
you need to face her.

Feelings that you know -
not afraid to show.
When...

Raise up the oars,
get ready to row
Fiddy cents to a dollar,
start rocking the boat

Lay down the law,
be on the swivel scold
Fiddy cents to a dollar,
ropes are tightening throats

Don’t kill the messenger
bringing the bad news
Fiddy cents to a dollar,
you got nothing to lose

Night of the reaper,
death...
