Best Out Of Wedlock Poems


Premium Member Held Aloft
We'd laid old George to rest the week before,
at ninety-one he now rejoined his wife,
no heirs to his estate, so one thing more
to do, and that's clear where he'd spent his life.
Downstairs had been quite easy, George was neat,
his things all had a purpose, neatly...

Born out of wedlock
she gave up her baby girl
for quick adoption.

Twice married since, old and frail,
she laments her childless life.

A Pang of Mercy
The curse, the lethargy, 
conceived out of wedlock Dawn and Day, 
the mother-in-law of the race of the Ogres,
the tub filled with toads, vipers and snakes,
the cohabitant who always stays out -
here's a partial list of the problems 
that await the true princesses,
whereas a dreamless...

Premium Member Purple Pondering
I’m at the age where
I’ve grown really long hair
And I don’t denim care
That the trend is to cut it

No longer wearing high heels
Just for a flex or a thrill
More about how my feet feel
And they don’t love it

I don’t have many pink plans
Flying by seat...

Born In the Slums
~Born In The Slums.~


She was born in the slums 
sixty three years ago
by a mother out of wedlock 
delivered her all alone
In an empty dirty corridor
due to a mistake she 
committed one night out of
lust, or maybe out of love, 
we will never know.

New born...

Teen Pregnancy
Teen pregnancy is still taking its toll on all teenagers today. If a teen girl gets
pregnant and becomes a mother at an early age, then that means no more going to the mall,
the movies, parties or whatever. If a teen boy becomes a father at...

Who Am I
Who Am I?

Because I was born out of wedlock, 
My mum and dad taught me that the poor were good, 
And that so many just needed a doctor, 
To understand them when they were crook. 

No-one else had ever treated them, 
Doctors in Israel only...

Two renaissance artists . . .

Leonardo Da Vinci created enduring works during his lifetime,
too many to list but perhaps the most well known is the Mona Lisa.
Born April 15, 1452 and died May 2, 1519 at only 67 years old.

Considered the greatest painter of all...

Jesus Revisited

He was born out of wedlock and some say his father
was God the Divine I am not sure of that immaculate
projection but genes were involved and I believe that
some assisted fertilization may have started his journey

Adultery would be if not blasphemous too judgemental
what is...

Downton Abbey
Drama centered on an aristocratic British family in
Old times- early twentieth century
Waited on by butlers, footmen, maids and valets
Noble families lived wrapped in luxury, night and day
Tale of young suitors, attractions, loves and marriages 
Of young Ladies with service class rocked the family carriage
Not uncovered...

Dead-Beat Fathers
First of all, I'm getting so sick and tired of these men impregnating these women and not
taking care of their children. These men had become a bunch of dead-beat dads since their
children have been born. Every guy in America knows that if they're going to...

A Wish
A Wish

For children sired from out of wedlock
Roaming the streets, begging for alms
With weary eyes from a day’s plight
To get their crumbs  and spare  the night

For girls robbed and sanctity trampled
Buried in rut,  and scared to move
Spurned and cast away from home
With...

Mariaka, Love and Betrayal
~esoteric~


The story is retold with great relish
Its the great chief who precipitated
The great war by his love endeavors
Its the great chief who led us to war

The great chief loved the royal princess
Sister to Mariaka making her pregnant
Shamed for conceiving out of wedlock
She committed the abominable...
