Best Nearly Poems

A long single strand of hair.
Deep darkness of my despair.

Everyday is much like the last.
Waves of darkness are all that pass.

I need the light from somewhere beyond.
Anything to guide me from the endless dark pond.

Spare me the madness of these lonely dark days.
Desperate and alone...

Nearly Dearly and Still Sincerely

Was almost sudden true love nearly,
Yet still to death did love her dearly,
Then in a grove,
Found treasure trove,
Simply, apparently and so sincerely.

Through eldritch streets I walked alone
With shadows on my track,
Full jellied was  my every bone,
I thought my mind would crack.

Through mist and morbid mire I went
To revel where gargoyles dwell,
A guest whose soul was spent,
To meet the host - the King of Hell!

Through caverns...

Nearly Six Foot

Of heaven on the water I wish to sing, it is a funny thing. 
A small boat and sail, the size of a tiny whale. 
I can do this…surely.

The water was not choppy, 
It is/was not even rough. 
Crystal clear and flat like...

Christmas time is near,
  Laughter and cheer.
  Best wishes and hugs all around,
  Snow glistening on the ground.
  Beautiful Robins we can see,
  Lots of Holly on the tree.
  Time for kindness and joy,
  Peace and love in...

Hazelnut coffee,

Barefoot on the patio,

Classic rock playing.

My life is nearly perfect

But I still haven't found you....

My dear, my angel, do not worry, we are not lost,
We will follow the well-worn sacred path at all cost,
And be guided by the star that beckons the hopeful.
We will stay loyal to the course of the dutiful,
Until we are safe at home by the...

I am one of the nearly men
Never quite the best
Not really of the crowd
Not quite one of the rest.
You see us in every photograph
When the prizes are handed out
Making up the numbers yet 
Never standing out,
For we nearly men and dreamers
Just stand back and allow
The...

My attitude is nearly always upbeat
Perhaps 'cause I start my day with Shredded Wheat
Goes straight to my soul
Makes me yell skoal
Great to be alive as I kick up my feet

Fathers day stuff everywhere, makes me think of you,
The only man i ever known, who's words were purely true,
You are my one true hero, my king, my everything,
and when i close my eyes, you're here, and i can hear you sing.

I know that you are...

We haven’t known each other 
For too long it must be said
Though I think you’re jolly lovely
From your toes up to your head
Your face is somewhat pretty
And your dress sense rather chic
I enjoy our conversations
And the charming way you speak
Those pretty eyes beguile me
That smile...

The day I left 
A true surprise
As you sat in a tub
soap suds in your eyes

I've called your mom and dad
And am going there to stay
until my mom arrives
whose currently on her way

You couldn't ,wouldn't ,believe
As you squinted through
Eyes you tried to aleve

You said ,"you...
