Best Oohed Poems


Premium Member Of Stargazers and Starshooters
The stargazers got together
and spread a blanket out on the grass
of the lush and opulent lawn
Here, they all huddled together
astronomy addicted
they gazed as comets blazed
sad to see them fall
shooting stars
caught their eyes
but on the stars in the skies
constellation sewn 
clustered or alone
The stars shone...
On these,...

Hair of Red
Born in 1947 
a delicate post war child
So shy was she
and nervous too
a flimsy fragile flower
who when her mother took her out
     began to scream
     began to shout

Her hair drew great attention
from old dears far and wide
titian...

Premium Member When I Heard About the Beatles
I was a preteen when I first heard about The Beatles.
Small town girl from the country, sure we had TV
But we did not know anything about England or Liverpool.
I had never heard “We all live in a Yellow Submarine”. 

I was at church camp when...

Premium Member Memories of a City Child
Writing about daisies roses rainbows and waterfalls helped me
Escape the madness of the city LIFE.  The JUNGLE. 
Whenever I wished to return I laid my pen down and
Anticipated the next siren.  So...

I laid back and reminisced for most of the day. Now, time...

Sixty-Two H's
Hop-along Henry and Half-as-long Harry
harassed the sisters Hoar.
Henry had Hannah huffing,
Helen howled, “Harry! — MORE!”

“I have to have it Harry!”
“Heaven help me! He’s done!”
“Hannah has Henry’s huge one.”
“Oh Harry, I’m not having fun!”

“Hang on Helen,” said Henry
(While Hannah hissed, oozed and oohed)
“Harry’s a hunk in...

Premium Member Campfire and the Stars
The girl is magical the stars whispered to the campfire.
The campfire had never seen a magical human, so she doubted it.
Just wait until midnight the stars said.

Campfire was winding down around eleven thirty; she wanted sleep.
She was beginning to turn her oranges and reds into...

Premium Member How Much My Parents Mean To Me
They rejoiced at my birth ~ all was laughter and mirth
While I had no idea of their value or worth
They fed me...they bathed and they clothed me
Day after day ~ Their love knew no dearth

They talked to me, sang to me ~ they oohed and...

I Erred My Cores
When I was born
Somebody might have thought, ‘he is going to bring wealth’,
It was hard to look outside
Though some might have thought, ‘he is going to be a visionary’,
I cried, I was innocent and I was well-thought-of
Someone might have thought, ’he will be famed’.
I wondered,...

There once was a lass named Bikini Rose
Curvy-swervy from her lips to her toes
   The lads ah-ed and oohed 
   Which Rose just pooh-poohed
Due to those hairs coming out of her nose...

Extreme Sacrifice
Tears fall from a round cherub face
Who feels her life is a big disgrace
Who feels she is just a charity case
Who takes up way too much space
Who knocked over the hand painted vase
From Italy
Because she thought she was too obese
An ugly savage beast
And wanted her...

Childhood Christmas
Circa - approximately early
to late nineteen sixties,
     where yours truly
found himself surly,
particularly compounded
     if my parents, 

where Mister and 
Missus Santa Claus 
played by Boyce and 
Harriet Harris respectively

     failed to purchase

The Tale Spinner
His blockbuster of a book,
just a huge, steaming heap
of a gobbler's gobbledygook,
        praised to highest heavens
        by blabbering blurb-writers
        who gather in drunken covens.

A good time was had by all at
Mother Daughtry's. The next 
Day Damian was in his usual 
Mood with Molly in her cozy
But large room. He layed on her
Bed she layed on top of him.

You have me do?"  She...
