Best Lazy Poems

I’m listless as a lazy river
barely lapping at the shore.
I wanted once to find the ocean,
but I don’t care any more.

Would I even make a ripple
if a stone were tossed my way?
Even with the frogs and fishies
I no longer wish to play.

I’ve lost my course...

It was one lazy afternoon
 
laying in the hammock
 
under the azure sky
 
sheltered from the blistering sun
 
by the canopy of the old oak tree
 
chru   chru   chru
 
 warbles from the Bluebird
 
can be heard
 
as she calls for...

Dozing
on a cream-colored comforter
I care not
for a cacophony
of color
cloistered
near my ear
but vague vestiges
of vanilla whispers
melting
in an ivory bowl

Memories of garden walks
  Primrose paths, intimate talks
A coin tossed wishfully in a fountain
  Gazing up at snow-capped mountains...

Lazy Sundays in our reading chairs
  Sunset, sipping tea in our town square
The glow of ruddy cheeks twilight demarcates
  A last toast to...

A lawnmower whirrs in the distance
My neighbor has gotten ambitious
The sun shines upon my head
As I sit upon my deck
I feel the warm rays soak into my skin
Am I tanning yet?
The bees are busy buzzing 
Stopping only to drink from sweet blossoms
Birds are calling happily
Back...

Summertime coats your tongue like molasses
Lingering kiss of strawberry lasses
Sipping lemonade
Beneath pastel shade
Bare toes wriggle in beach-salty grasses

O lazy boy
Glutton to sleeping
Doze in reading
When it comes to food
Voracious to food
Not think of future
Think of things not

O lazy boy
Patriot to film
Watch with  his heart
Call him hear not 
Until you touch his heart
Film do kill brain 
With gradual process

O lazy boy
Elephant in playing
Think...

Well, when I woke up 
I admit it's true 
There was nothing in this world
That I wanted to do
So I lay there, in my cozy warm bed
Clutching my soft pillow, with the covers on my head
I wanted to enter this contest, 'till I realized
They expected...

Our jobs were all done yesterday,
Got up to a sunny morning today.
Breakfast done and dishes washed,
Another coffee and my comfy chair,
Just gazing about seeing what's there.
Azure blue sky and a gentle breeze,
All in place for a morning of ease.
Birds drink at the fountain I made,
They...

The truth is at times, we are just too lazy to write.
Hence, we blame our Muses, a wrong, to be made, right!

Inspiration is everywhere, in your past, present and within 
you on the chair.
Who knows what beauty we might pen, if we could just realize,it's...

Hanging with the clothes, hanging on the line,
sunk down in a hammock listening to Prine.
I'm hiding from the mower under this tree,
with a cooler full of beer, as cold as can be.

There's a stack of bills on the kitchen table,
to pay them all, don't think...

Each of us have two wolves living inside us
One wants to eat burritos
and watch horror movies.

The other wants to walk about 
in its underpants all day 
snacking on cheetos between long naps. 

The wolf that thrives is the one 
who lives on with diabetes while...

Wake up in the afternoon, I go to sleep at two,
I'm spending all my time just wasting time, nothing else to do,
Too doo, too doo.

I'm looking for a part time job, but (ha) not very hard,
'Cause I've got better things to do than do better...
