Best Muster Up Poems


The Muster
Weaving through
the gum trees
the ghosts
of aboriginal stockmen
cut through
the dust
and years....

Morning Muster
The morning has started with a trace of a dew
An ascent through the tussock ignites the new day
Trailing huntaways eager to work on the ewes
Awaited shrill whistles loose the dogs on their prey.

A new shepherd surveys as proceedings unfold
Sinewy figures employing hill sticks with care.
Spectacular...

Mutt Muster
His name was Mutt
'cause he was the runt
of a family of giants you see
and at only five foot three,
everyone called him Mutt.

Mutt wore glasses very thick
but unlike Magoo, Mutt Muster was quick
at all kinds of games
when you would think he couldn't see.
Well, he even played...

Premium Member Custer's Final Muster
There once lived a general named Custer,

   Well-known for his arrogance and bluster.

      He met his Waterloo,

         By bands of wrathful Sioux.

All I Could Muster
Empty pages
Staring at blank spaces
How long has it been
As custom dictates, a line to be repeated
Maybe it'll close the gap between mental lapses
Maybe it'll explain the aversion
Welcoming the conversion
Welcoming the conversation now fulfilled
Am I fulfilled
A constant query the world can never seem to answer
I don't...

The Soldier's Last Muster
When the sun is in the west
You will safely go to rest
At the setting of the sun
With your soldiers duties done
You will feel your God is nigh
As you ascend up to the sky
And in earths fading light
Where tears diminish sight
Where loved ones question why
A new...

Premium Member Courage She Could Not Muster For Herself
She could not get away from her abuser
When it was only her
But when her baby came along
She developed courage she could not muster for herself
She and the baby left without baggage
She did not want anything to slow down their escape...

Called Muster and Did Fluster
Regan did command
always in air sea and land
should show a strong hand

we had called muster
were afraid in a fluster
a traffic cluster

so simple and plain
Walker always crashed the plane
insane will remain...

Premium Member Muster Courage
Muster courage, resurrect love
All else but thought constructs
When head and heart be hand in glove
Then ego self-destructs 

Enliven soul presence
Shake inner sentience 
Know we are God essence

Great Beefy Tasting
--------------------------
Walla,Walla
the sweetest onions around!
Brioche buns soft pillowy texture!
And roasted garlic cloves!
Were one to
clarify the butter
add the garlic
and add the onions
and then paint the buns
to be toasted.
set aside the buns.
and then caramelize these onions
to be set aside.
Grill the big beefy burgers
to a perfect medium.

Turn Left at the lights
Obtuse abuse..rude platitudes shout..

About alternative attitudes..generations..

Scream at different altitudes & latitudes..

Venerate mandarins sins.. 

Generate pernicious vicissitudes

Vicious avaricious machinations..

Celebrate nations chagrin…

Pander to propaganda spin..

AI garlanded reputations..

Cohorts in suits cavort in cahoots..

Kiss or diss..the abyss

Hiss of mis-information bliss..

Arrests..capitalist corporate conquests...detests protest..

Well got egregious prior & previous..

SO

Whatever your...
