Best Lounge Around Poems
Relentless HeatWhen the air feels thick and humid,
clouds coalesce in shades of gray.
And a dullness blunts the Sun's edge,
unable to cut through the fray.
A gloomy mood paints your day blue,
with a blah, melancholy brush.
And you start to squirm and fidget,
while suppressing all thoughts to rush.
You lounge...

Good LuckOld Spencer, smelling of grippe, drugs, and death,
he couldn’t bend over to pick up chalk, magazines,
and failed acknowledgements of stupidity.
He certainly reveled in my foolishness.
“Modern science would still like to know what the secret ingredients were
that the Egyptians used when they wrapped...

Once a loud-mouthed Sergeant-Major
Joined Cold Stream Guards to troop colour
He kept wondering why
He heard not himself cry
Until he took bearskin helmet off ear!
So he left the Lilywhites Guards
To lounge around the ‘Frisco bards
Beats made him bleat poems
Sans use of...

Did the Tree Spirits Die TooDid The Tree Spirits Die Too
Shadows wrap the mighty black oaks
moving so slow like the older folks
Many decades have grown trees strong
I listen for that most ancient song
Terrible storms have left their mark
trees scarred, cut, bent and swayed
Dark...

Pretty Myself UpSpent 2 hours on this here hair of mine.
PERFECT.... Not a hair out of place.
Curly long lashes, blush, liner, and lipstick,
accentuating the contours of my face.
Oh... then there's the baddest outfit money can buy
and yes shoes to match... with heels so high.
"Man" you can't tell...

A Winter PoemUsing the snow spade to once again clear out the driveway,
I couldn't help but notice the lights that shimmered all day,
twinkling at me from the sunlight playing off of the snow,
giving the silver sparkling look of the fresh snow a certain glow,
During my repetitive shoveling...

Laughing Pines, Part TwoWill you, won’t you join the dance,
We like to dance here every night,
Moving slowly at the speed of light.
Won’t you give yourself half a chance,
Even two left feet are alright.
The Bipolar Coaster is an excellent ride,
But it does have its ups and downs.
If you feel...

Almost a Snow DayAlthough I really do love my job,
Love to lounge around with don't disturb on my door knob,
More often than not I'd love to play hooky,
Ornately drinking tea and eating oatmeal raisin cookies,
Sympathizing for all the ones who are slaving away,
Totally enjoying my Ferris Bueller off...

MomEven though she never went to college, she watches Jeopardy each night and gets all the
answers right.
Even though she never had the need for a passport, she can talk about foreign cities as if
she grew up there as a young girl.
Even though she...

Summer LoveSUMMER LOVE
Summer comes around but just once a year
And a time to be spent with someone dear
The days are hazy and oh so lazy
But they are also filled with much good cheer
The hours spent on the beach or by the pool
Or in the shade...

A ReasonA reason to get out of bed
A reason to get out under the covers
A reason to get dressed and showered
A reason to stop and smell the flowers
A reason to ride my bike
A reason to walk around at night
A reason to smile at a stranger...

Home WreckerYou’re not welcomed here anymore
You got no business here anymore
You got no right to come in here anymore
You don’t have to come here anymore.
You leave for work
Come back later just to leave
An hour passes and you return
Only to leave again
Just coming back a few hours...

Sundays On the FarmToday, I was musin', peerin' back thro' the mists of time,
Recallin' Sundays when I was young and times were more sublime.
For Sunday School and Church, Mom would roust us out of bed,
Then, fix the usual breakfast of ham, eggs and gravy bread.
The preacher would rant...

for doing nothing
skies so dreary
bones so weary
