Best Leo Poems


Premium Member A Man Called Leo

I tread between green mounds of decay,
seeking a particular headstone.
Lost in thought, I lose track of the day,
for I've seldom felt so all alone.

Where the dead rest under monoliths,
a feeling of fear clings to the shade.
But despite supernatural myths,
I begin to wander unafraid.

A dying sun highlights every grave:
gilding inscribed epitaphs of old.
And reading words the grieving engrave:
I seek warmth within a love gone cold.

My heart disputes the pains of my youth,
still in denial, despite years of ache.
And failing to disregard the truth,
tears dissipate like drops in a lake.

I stand still before the place I seek:
where lies a military hero.
And a single tear runs down my cheek
for my father, a man called Leo.

Premium Member Astrology's Big Twelve

Aries must learn danger with their own toddler test.
Taurus grasp emotions from the feel in their chest.
Geminis wish for words hearers clearly digest.
Cancers thrive in a neat, loving family nest.
Leos strive to lead infused with praise about their best.
Virgos shelve their dreams for duties that sternly pest.
Libras view couple love as perfect life's peak crest.
Scorpios forget naught, hiding all in mind's vest.
Sag needs outdoor adventure per their soul’s request.
Capricorns need for perfection is not a jest.
Aquarians hear their own drum and march with zest.
Pisces bear any news without shock or unrest.

L-Loyal to the ones I love
E-Equil to everyone around
O-Only love, in me, will you find

A Dog Named Leo

I pass a dog named Leo
Sometimes on my morning walks.
Off leash, he goes exploring
While his owner stops and talks.

He’s black and white with stand-up ears,
His body low and squat,
But his wagging tail stands out,
The finest feature that he’s got.

Other canines save their wagging
For a dog-specific reason – 
Recognition or approval or
As thanks for something pleasin.’

Yet with Leo, it’s just joy
That he apparently exudes,
As rare in dogs as humans
With such upbeat attitudes.

Seeing Leo makes me happy;
I cannot resist a smile
When he prances past so gaily
In his beatific style.

Premium Member Disrobing Ego

To disrobe the lion’s ego, 
would be to destroy a charismatic higher light
dethrone  a regal rightous dominance 
denounce a fierce protective energy
with pride of a warrior, never repudiate royalty
forswear fealty is to renounce a king of truth
whilst in his den, uncloaked he and his lioness 
of regal virtue, love eternal and loyalty
when you engage with ultimate hierarchy, 
roars of authority warn and ward risk taking rivals
with gifted instincts,  a supreme stubborn strength 
and a keen bond and respect for his own
an affectionate and generous warmth 
confident yet cautious in their garden of Eden
defeatist disrobes the ego, only when defeated 
deep within the soul, we yearn for substance
a spiritual substance sustaining us
the creature sustains as messenger
deeper significance beyond physical form
depicting qualities from the universe
butterflies symbolize transformation,
the turtle patience, the elephant a mighty sooth,
the lion links divine wisdom and perceives truth

Leo, An Astrology Acrostic

Leo, an Astrology Acrostic
    by Amy Swanson


Loyal friend who'll laugh with you, the sun rules their playful heart;
Engagingly eclectic, they'll give all they have; forgive them if they seem a little bossy. 
Outgoing with majestic charm, they'll walk with you until the very end.







*Inspired by Danielle White's astrology acrostic contest*  -- I had to get in on the fun! :)

Premium Member Leo the Lion

I'm Leo the Lion, I am, I am
From the mystical world of the Astrology
I'm generous, strong and warmhearted
That's if you believe in symbology

Not making this up, check it out
Masculine, positive and extroverted
If I listen too carefully, my head will swell
Which should definitely be averted

My wife suggested widening the doorways
Or I might severely injure my brain
Methinks my honey's being a bit facetious
But I love her a bunch just the same

I'm Leo the Lion, I am, I am
Just a fun loving guy who enjoys life
They also say I'm very broad-minded
Love broads but don't tell my wife!

Leo Messi

I love a person small,
He sprints alike a young gazelle.
And when he turns afront the goal;
He does is so very well.

He's got seven ballond'ors,
And he's got six golden boots.
He's counting seven hundred and more
Of goals scored with his left foot.

He won hearts of generations
That have seen his two feet run.
He won the World Cup for a Nation
That has been dreaming for the sun.

He's a poet that runs in the field,
And the green grass kepps him through.
His courage is the only shield
That helped him go through.

All hail the king of football,
All hail heroes of the globe!
All hail the football GOAT
That wears the golden robe!

Aquarius and Leo

You are Aquarius, I, Leo the lioness; you are wind and I am fire.

You blow on me, causing an inferno between us; a wild trembling deep 
in the soul.

You are my husband, I, your wife; for three years those flames have raged,
let them burn on, burn on, out of control!

(To my husband) 
I love you, even though our horoscopes say we shouldn't be together. That
just goes to show you the freaks we are! lol
