Best Out Of Play Poems


Reap the Rewards of Gods True Love
Baby, Cant we just stop and begin again
Satan has got us in a headspin
I refuse to just let him win
We are on that bumpy road of sin
Please baby, let's stop and begin 
With Gods love growing Within

For our spirit runs so deep
While we reap the...

Premium Member Winter Blues
As the Sun sulks in a somber place,
flakes of alabaster mask His face.
And like banshees crying out all alone,
howling winds bring a chill to the bone.

Freezing temps take the fun out of play;
when blustery winds won't blow away.
And depression sullies days of snow;
fearing Winter will...

Premium Member Like It Was Yesterday
I remember fish sticks for Friday night dinners
And having phones mounted on the wall
And when calling my parents to come pick me up
Hearing the operator ask, “Do you accept this call”

I remember cartoons on Saturday mornings
And TV shows in black and white
I remember staying outside...

(Please! Donald! You Need Help!)

Yes, "Not invented here" it seems Trump's motto for today!
So, institutions long revered are taken out of play.
"What is not mine cannot be saved," the lesson through the noise,
The truth is elementary: You like it? Hates your toys!

Yes, baddest bully in...

Premium Member Baby, Those Were the Days I Still Want
Those were the days,this the life I made
I drank too damn much and stayed away
Life so fast,wild and filled with pretty girls
Sexy bodies, pretty faces and long curls!

I smashed your memory into hard pieces
Sold my broken heart for short leases
Drinking my pain until it took...

A Puzzle You Once Played
Where did the time go, who took it from you?
You can't even imagine what we've all been through.

Looking for your yellow that never appeared,
And deep down unforgiveness is what you really feared.

Cuz' fear is tricky that way, and your animals or us couldn't make you...

IF YOU PULL A LONG FACE : IXL

IF you pull a long dopey face
E'en if it were in your own bloody way
Stick two sore thumbs in your own nose
To spite your snubbed mug and blast bray

If you pulled a long resigned face
'Who put me here'...

Fire of Lies
As your skin burns to ash before my tearfilled eyes,
I feel like a part of me is being torn away.
And I wish I could help and end all of your pained cries,
So all the hurt would be out of play.
Thinking of all the bitter and...

I will be fine, there will be a 'time after' this
I'll exist within it, once again find bliss
Until then I will walk a delicate line
There will be a 'time after' this, I will be fine

If there's a pocket of calm, I'll fully immerse
Treading carefully so...

The Tariff Wars
There are no bombs, nor guns ablaze
No killing fields or bloody sands
Yet world is driven into craze
From “sweet old home” to distant lands

Mosaic shattered on the wall
To shreds is ripped old gobelin
Oh why, but why we started brawl
The one we cannot ever win?

I want to...
