Best Nutcracker Poems

The time of year I will listen
To a classic music by Tchaisky
I enjoy the music of the Nutcracker
My eyes closed feeling the music
Feeling the flow of the tune


This music makes me feel 
Like I am dancing across 
     the room
With my...

Elegantly floating on air and sun
A great fall off the wall

Nutcracker you are so fine
Nutcracker you are divine
Nutcracker standing tall
Nutcracker walk down the hall
Nutcracker standing there
Nutcracker you have white hair
Oh, fine Nutcracker...

Bought advance tickets for The Nutcracker
About two and a half months ago
How was I to know on November 29th
We'd get dumped on with a big bunch of snow

The weather gods have conspired against me
Coz before and after that day
Temperatures been so incredibly warm
Much like the...

THE NUTCKRACKER

Did you see it
Hear it?
Balanchine’s choreography
Tschaikowsky’s music
The New York City Ballet

Speak of dancing?
Speak of music?
Neither can describe art
It must be inwardly felt – 
     color and music extrasensory

Mathematics – Geometry comes close
You    a throbbing spirit

"I want to be a nutcracker!"
Came my announcement one day.
I won't need the strength of a linebacker
to make my chosen profession pay.

"I want to be a nutcracker!"
Grasping them tight like in a vise.
Even the big ones, I'd call a 'wacker.'
I might have to squeeze those...

THE NUTCRACKER…SWEET

In my 69 years I had never seen the Nutcracker Suite…never experienced the ballet….never heard Tchaikovsky’s entire score…that is…until yesterday.

As I sat captivated by the music…by the dancing and the fact there were no words to any song…I had to wonder to myself…what in...

Christmas was nearing.....and yet..
These arrogant governors must be eating ,shrooms!
"We have locked the churches and schools
Now chimneys must be locked down soon!"
Their greasy hair gleamed under TV lights,
(I hated this dudes,real goons!)

" We cannot take chances with this obese, Santa Clause,.
After all,His Holiess Fauci, the...

Dreams of the Nutcracker

When I am older, 
I will sweep you off your feet. 
I will take you from here, 
2 a land far away. 

Birds will sing, 
and no one “unkind”
will be allowed. 
There will be
pretty colored flowers, 
everywhere,
there will be fish, 
in the...

Too big to Crack this nut.
Too big to Crack a nut.

But leave it up to imagination.
Cosmo Star Beings and superstition.
Producing a morning prayer rumpelstiltskin.
Nut Cracked Her and sometimes you feel like 
a nut, sometimes you don't.

Old rotten owl rumpelstiltskin.
Odd and rotten in the days of...

The nutcracker stockings could not resist the urge to play
They sat silent without moving the entire long day
But at night when the lights went out,
They began to whirl twirl, twist and shout

We are the nutsies, the mighty mighty nutcrackers!
These silly humans are crazy, completely polly-wackers!
The...

Born wearing ballet shoes
without knowing,
far in the deep nature, 
in the Sakhalin Islands,
a ballet star opened his eyes
for the first time.

Warmed by the love of his
family, he grew up happy
until his life changed.
He travelled without ballet shoes to Riga, 
where he saw a new beginning,...

snowing tonight ~ whispering, luminescent, dazzling,  
air misty ~ wind calm, serene, 
sights outside blurred, indistinct through the hazy window-panes, 
rooftops getting blanketed with white laces ~ 
a picturesque winter wonderland, 
treetops embellished with silver ornaments, 
grasses caressed by soft touches of snow,  
my heart is with you, craving for...

Our Christmas traditions ...
They came across the sea,
From the old, old towns
In the heart of Germany 

Sugar and spice - filled
Were the gingerbread men,
Cut by hand ... carefully 
As was the tradition then

A wooden nutcracker guards
In a frosted windowpane,
To keep away evil spirits ...
Out wandering...
