Best Lounge Around Poems


Premium Member Relentless Heat
When 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 Luck
Old 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...

Limerick croisés : Once a loud-mouthed Sergeant-Major

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...

Premium Member Did the Tree Spirits Die Too
Did 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 Up
Spent 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 Poem
Using 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 Two
Will 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 Day
Although 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...

Premium Member Mom
Even 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 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 Reason
A 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 Wrecker
You’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...

Premium Member Sundays On the Farm
Today, 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...

A rainy day
for doing nothing
skies so dreary
bones so weary
cop some z's
lounge around
anything goes
watch TV shows
you'll only miss
a rainbow...
