Best Made A Point Poems
Everybody Is a GeniusQuite a statement to make
but Einstein was prone to them
he always makes one think deep
so you need your mind kept open
everyone thinks a genius isn't them
something greatly marvelous surely
not the ordinary things of life
but the simple things makes one securely
Take the simple illustration of a...

Singing For Stevie's WonderI remember,
in the early 60s,
our thirty mile drive
from our historic family farm,
in all White rural Michigan,
not counting the Mexican migrant workers
which adults made a point of discounting,
on the first of several shopping trips to Thrifty Acres,
through vibrantly young all Black urban streets
of nearby Lansing.
Making Stevie...

Interpersonal BattleINTERPERSONAL BATTLE
Two people circle each other in a battle of wills and of strength.
It’s a battle between you and me, I made a point and you disagreed
just because I was right. Did you have to call me what you did?
What right did...

Patch of GreenI saw her sitting alone
At a corner table
Of a poorly lit inn
Her blouse pink
The color of
Sweet smelling roses
She had no clue
Who else was in the
Tavern and did not care
She was reading
From what looked like a...

Venus's *****...Venus's ***** made a point to Love
Hanging high in the rings above
And flashing by in a comment
Went a girl with a pen to vent
Laughing in the Light of a man
Erotic explosions of her mind
Electrifying in the eyes of Time
Venus's ***** is a pointed rhyme...
Sublime in...

SherriThe woman that took me under her wing
This woman gave me everything
She gave me hope
Which was the only thing that kept me afloat
She gave me courage I never had
It kind of makes me sad
This woman most of all gave me love and understanding
No matter what...

Soul To KeepThe ceremony was a joke,
The bride didn't wear white.
We were married by Spok,
On the outskirts of Vegas that night.
You wore your tripp pants,
I wore my black corset boots.
Because nothing else mattered,
But being with you.
The rain started to fall,
The stars really came down.
As...

True ColorsI've tried and tried and continue to try,
but I guess it never mattered.
In the end you just laughed at me,
Till you see the torture rip thru my soul.
But somehow I knew you didn't care.
I've tried to be real,
But you've been fake like plastic surgery is.
To...

DropletsAs i left the house this day
i made a point to pray;
my heart sank seeing the skies
my lips put out to dry.
So as i usually do
my prayers see me through;
i begged the Lord, "no rain"
i begged, cast out the pain.
As i reached my pit-stop point
the...

Parrot Ting Reflection From a Barry University GraduateThere has been much about being on a stage
Since I started dealing with that adult style wage
The Orange one used to welcome the new year
With an evening date filled with cheer
Now it says goodbye
With a match worthy of a sigh
Northerners...

America's Musical TastesSome go for metal
Others prefer Bach
Some prefer jazz
others like rock
Saw Black Sabbath and survived
Now I think their music is really "jive"
Hip - hop now reviews the airwaves
Hendrix made a point with his "Purple Haze"
so turn on to your favorite...

I Ate No Goodies For a YearI ate no goodies for a year
lost weight as fast as others put it on
sixty-four pounds gone
did it one of the worst possible ways
ate lettuce
drank water
for a year
nothing else passed my lips
my tiny waist was laughable
my mother offered to make me a suit
she did, and...

Tea TimeI've moved my chair closer
I've walked by purposely
I've made a point to look for you
To see where you might be
And when I finally found you
Behold, inside of me
Were lots of little butterflies
Dancing joyously
I had to try to calm them down
Not done so easily
I had...

Red States ONLY
Written By: D. Collins 6/14/25
In red states only does deportation get a pass.
In those states only did Trump reach out and ask.
It should be very clear his constituents made a point.
They're "carved-out" of policy where other people aren't.
Once all "illegal aliens" are shipped off...
