Best Liking Poems
I was set in my ways
Downed café au-laits
In a den of privacy.
Though pain from a jilt
Still throbbed to the hilt
A regrettable history.
With no delusions
Of future effusions
I cherished my liberty.
And tried to avoid
With every fibroid
That lost road to misery.
Yet a sneaky charmer
Found cracks in my armor
Ensnaring me unwary.
It was only a glance
A pure happen-stance
No intentionality.
But a sound like a crack
That I can’t take back
A fated futility.
Made me squeal out loud
When if from a cloud
A bolt of liking struck me.
With no more deterrent
This ardent current
Put glee in my fantasy.
At the speed of light
Our romance took flight
In ionic felicity.

Unofficial Entry #2

(Side note: I'll just write here since no what will I pay for that premium membership lol As you can tell from the date, I've written this long ago.
I've been contemplating whether or not to join poetrysoup for a while now.
I should've joined earlier. Now I have hundreds to share. Well enjoy my never-shared -'til-today poem entries.)
There are many stages to liking a guy.
1. You think they're cute and nice
2. You like him
3. You have a crush on him
4. You love him
5. You're obsessed with him
6. Don't like him no more
7. Denial
8. Part of you tells you he's got something
9. It grows
10. ... 11. ...12. 13. 14. 15. 16. 17. 18. 19. 20.
21. Acceptance, he's your friend again
Or so you think...

At 13 years of age, a pamphlet
Showed up in my home.
My mother bought it, not to be
The subject of a poem.
It was intended to explain
(A lecture would be worse)
The facts of menstruation,
Often called the “woman’s curse.”
Modess, a manufacturer
Of sanitary pads,
Produced the booklet; it cost
Just a quarter; they made scads.
The title always bothered me,
For what would be the need
To try to get young girls to like
A messy monthly bleed?
A novel I am reading
Brought this little pamphlet back.
A character is using it
For knowledge she does lack.
It’s rare to find a copy
So on Amazon they’re hiking it
To almost 90 bucks, another
Reason for not liking it.

As I got to know you, I grew to like you more than expected, I guess it was the way you
were to me, I felt protected. I was comfortable in your arms, the way you caressed me, I
knew of no harm. The way you gave a listening ear and the way you knew what was goin on
regardless of what you hear. It was like you could read me by the tone of my voice and you
knew what felt good even when I didn't make a noise. Looking back I wish we explored more
of our options. You made me feel so good inside, like I was on a natural high. There's so
many things about you that I wish was in every guy. There's so much I like about you, that it
makes it hard to say goodbye. But looking on the bright side, I made a new friend and
developed a great friendship that will hopefully never end.

My favorite time of the day
Is when the moon hugs the sun
Waiting on the Ice -cream truck to come
Coins "jing-"a"-lingin""'
In my blue jeans
Fitted loosely
When it's not so hot
All you gotta do is run when you need a cool breeze
So happy with soul magic
The little girls are dancing in the street 'cause there is no traffic
Little boys in the grass wrestling
Or trying to see who can run the fastest
Couples holding hands
Taking turns whispering sweet nothings
LOVING OUT LOUD!!!
Today we crown "Joy" as king
As we all drink directly
From the vineyard of kindred spirits
Just like we ought to be

I'm turning old ,older
Liking no longer
Still ,I'm getting older..
My age increasing it's number
I'm liking it, no longer
Still ,increasing it's number..
I'm turning old,older..
Situations looks scary
No body looks as mother Mary
Linking it,no longer
Still .I'm getting old,older..
Children reaching their teenage..
Myself loosing my lovely,loving age..
I'm liking it,no longer
Still I'm turning old,older...

A chipmunk fell under my spell today.
I am magnificent, so of course, it was not totally unexpected,
plus chipmunks have always been attracted to me.
She immediately recognized me as a mystical, magical, Komodo dragon,
and she wanted to tell her relatives, for she liked being the first with the news.
You know the type.
I could have none of that, being the only Komodo dragon left, in generations
of magical, mystical dragons. If she told, I might disappear forever, and then who would save the planet? So I brought her to my dragon lair, and we had a bit of a chat.
Her name was Miss Fancy, and she was all of that; eating her sandwiches with her pinkie up. She had never tasted peanut butter banana sandwiches before, and let me know how great they are.
Komodos do not eat that kind of food, being strictly carnivores, but I resisted every urge to eat her, and it worked. Miss Fancy promised she would not tell anyone about my mystical, magical side, which she and only she had seen, so I released her back into her meadow with her friends.
Almost as soon as she was released she began travelling door to door, and I suspected she was not merely delivering May baskets. I turned invisible to listen, and was astounded at how many people laughed at her for thinking there was a real Komodo dragon. None believed, and she was the laughing
stock of Chipmunk Village.
I cannot tell you the relief I felt for I had grown fond of her, and did not relish torching her with my mighty flames, for a chipmunk is not much of a bite anyway.

Narrative
Uncle Jim encountered a prostitute
Southwest of the city of Institute
He paid his money,
She called him "honey,"
But then discovered him much too hirsute.

Limerick
Rolling back
Reeling in laughter
Reliving phases
Thus revealing faces
she slides through phases places
Placing faces
To deaden places
Creating an illusion
Of bizarre cases
She Mastered the lines
As she dance the puppets
Taking crunchy chunks
From each suspenseful moments
Reaching for their minds
While touring their heads
Transcending their hopes
With vivid visions
Thus transporting lives
to fading places
Reliving facts of ancient cases
Drumming them to screaming heights
Then with a sudden pause
Fizzling out the echoing sounds
He slowly gathered the scattered faces
Staring with wide guesses
admist this Ominous silence

great potential
being presidential
quite essential
people we have known
will never act fully grown
whole world wants for own
often plagiarize
which is what we realize
likes to fantasize
has poor grammar
sometimes is known to stammer
lover of glamor
Anyone that you know of?
can create a plan
then put up with when you can
bad things be sure to ban

Effervescentess as the flowers are crying
As the wind blows through the valleys
The grass is moving dancing in the breeze so are the flowers
Clouds bump each other producing rain the rain showers Over gust abandoned nest of the droplets of tears
From the angels eyes from their face they're crying
Woe is me, woe for mankind man you see
Has falling like a cut down tree
Timber
