Best Nora Poems


Premium Member From a Ruby Garland For George and Nora - My Parents -
Europe was frozen in a tide of hate
The genius Jew was being persecuted
Bound to the intransigence of fate
His violin played the tunes they executed
Now it was time to think as they electrocuted
The hopes of young people in the dawn of their history
Whose own stories would...

Ode To Nora
ODE TO NORA

Never been encountered, 

desire so much desired

On the verge of being so wanted, 

attractiveness becomes attraction

Ravished at natures’ skills, 

compatibility made so compatible

Acclaimed with the right appeal, 

lust turns to love!...

Alter Ego: (There's Something About Nora)
She wouldn't want to bore ya,
but there's something about Nora.

Things physical, not audi
fly away from her body,

Fail to nail the counter, 
hit the deck all around her-- 

A zillion spills to mop up:
coffee grinds, egg shells, & catsup.

"Magnificent Uncoordinated 
Movements," an old boyfriend said,

In and...

Premium Member Aunt Nora
Getting high off 'Mary Jane'
 that pungent potent weed
 sticking needles in your veins
 and getting higher than you need

 'Aunt Nora' wont let you blow your nose
  'French fries' will leave you in its throes
 Moonshine will make you slur your speech
 and...

Nora Aunor
By George P. Lumayag
https://georgelumayag.weebly.com

The Super Snow Moon lighted our bleeding hearts,
That we’re staging the National Arts Month in February;
It reminded us to the king like the powerful wolf 
Who defaced the rules of artistry
That he butted his unverified thoughts 
To the heroine’s genuine and overconfident...

I see the girl
with a smile in her eyes
How is it I suddenly realize
her name I know, Nora

She appears whenever
I'm ill at ease
Her eyes they flirt and tease
I smile and all is good
because of Nora

Others I tell of Nora
how I begin to adore her
The times...

A Teaching Moment For Little Nora
Little Nora and Grandpa Bill
sit on swings in Grandma’s garden.  
A hummingbird arrives to sample

the brilliant flowers at this buffet. 
Grandpa Bill sees a teaching moment 
and asks little Nora with a smile  

if hummingbirds have beaks or bills.
Little Nora has a teaching...

Nora Nemesis
She evens the score:
a spoonful of applesauce meant for the mouth
hits the floor.

She's famous for a lack of aplomb,
applesauce -- a time bomb.

She gives you the dropsies,
objects that fly, no reason why.

Scary thoughts that come unbidden,
hers alone.  I will not own.

Crossing Nora? Don't try...

Premium Member Lumber Jack and Grandma Nora
Lumber Jack likes his pancakes with kernels of sweet Iowa corn
Freshly picked out of his Great Grandma Nora’s garden
She spoils him by warming up his maple syrup and melting his butter.
He is a forty-six-year-old great grandson who lives at home
With his mother’s grandmother,
a kind hearted...

Premium Member World of Nora
Her name was Nora, she had not had a house since she was in her twenties.
Parents died, her money ran out, her emotional illness kept her in the streets.
She was not just content, she was happy. Her life was fine; she had friends. 
She sang,...

Premium Member Protected By Grandma Nora
Prayer in the form of a lullaby washes over the nursery
Quintessential feelings of hope, love and joyful expectation
The baby feels beloved, reposing into his relaxed happy emotions.
We hear it on the baby’s monitor and freeze. Who is singing?

Locking eyes, we jump from the table and...

NORA

Carefree-spirited, wild at heart she sped down the steep streets of San Fransisco
Racing heart torn to pieces pounding from her chest, even after a bottle of Cisco                  ...

Nora Is Getting Poorer
I feel for next-house Nora
Getting poorer and poorer:
A plant facing stem borer
While she seems a goal scorer 
Her idle hours rarer 
State of things not fairer...

Nora's younger: Victoria
Is doing well in Pretoria
And her cousin Eugenia
Sure to become engineer ;
In South Africa clever
And there could live...

Premium Member Nora Holds Her Kingdom
gorgeous pink castle with rainbow unicorn
glittery dazzling flakes of winter beauty
sparkle as they flutter down over and over
shaken by Nora, a delighted princess
she revels that she can hold her kingdom in her hands
smiling as her ballerina dances in rhythm to the floating flakes
snow globe magic...

Premium Member Nora Grey
In vacant halls, in her negligee,
A marvelous dream is Nora Grey.
Moonbeams scatter as she goes,
She smells of the rose!
She's in a purple mood,
Enjoying the quietude;
And longing for,
Thinking of,
Missing the past-
It went too fast!
Night plays a summer tune-
The jasmine's in bloom!
The spirit of yesterday
Has come here...
