Best Overplay Poems

How far do the ripples spread, when eventually we die 
Probably stay in the locality, level off, no major outcry
But let’s say we’re famous, suffering unexplained death 
The ripples keep expanding, growing further in breadth 

See the grotesque nature of spin, is to overplay a...

I met the most amazing woman today
So pretty, such a looker all the way
Everything about her had me reacting 
In the most sensual ways
So interesting to talk with 
I hope she wants to stay
Her personality just carries my spirit out to play
The longer she stays...

There once was a playful little boy his imagination 'Oh' how it would soar
  dreaming of nights of dragons and forts becoming the warlord of his blankets
  and cardboard.

  On a weekend day he requested to build a fort so the dragon...

(World War One Poem)

Field Of Dreams

The World has stated our freedom,
the worms shall share a soldier's fear.
To look above my trench
is to be a thief in the night.
Life shall lurk, afraid of what is above.

My brothers wait for their moment
the maverick shell will deal the...

This Three-Fifth Stooges moron quartet
are brain-slow slugs you don’t wanna IQ know

Just sitting on a milk crate,
waiting outside of the MGM studio gate
Moe, Larry and Curly passed my way

They were yukking it up,
talking clown downright tomfoolery
Saying how they were the new chaos custodians of...

Having an inflated ego is detrimental to living a good life
It's a self-serving trait that can lead to tragedy and strife
One who's overconfident is arrogant, his hubris is rife
Overplaying his hand will cut like the blade of a knife

Some think they're better than the rest...

I had a brilliant moment of clarity, inspired by a dream,
a profound reminder that things may not be what they seem.
There's not always a clear line between evil and good,
like a wolf in sheep’s clothing is sometimes misunderstood.
 
Certain years and veiled looks can conceal...

I left my naivety back in the hood
to explore the empathy in my heart.
And deep in my soul I feel that I’m good
somewhat smart, but don’t overplay that part.

I’m humble, yet I’m kinda proud of me
principled by the absolutes of truth.
And I stay as far...

Verse 1 
To go beyond comparison, no place to overplay 
The potter of unique design, brought new life to the clay
Unwholesome talk, within my walk, of that I will release 
I’m truly made in your image, I am your masterpiece 

Chorus 
Formed by your hand,...

Within an overplay of paneled oak
and illumination fittingly low,
set upon a table, its style baroque
a lighted candle, its shimmering glow
plays an unopened bottle of Bordeaux

Distant soft murmurs of discrete lovers
a pop of cork, the chinking of a glass
gentle rustling of changed table covers,
the whooshing of...

I have this new found strength
Presence like the flow we have come to know
The peace I feel from this very real ordeal
That Satans player tried to bring our way
You are here with me to stay
No way would you overplay that day

Being put through a mind-altering...

Like when bagpipes sing 
from far away
Its streamlined music
not overplay.

The soothing flow
of something pure
A sound that lets my
heart feel cured.

Its hard to appreciate
the way this makes my soul
come alive with hope and faith
and restores my self control.

Ripples in the blue 
Takes all the noise away
The...

If only the sun is forever blue and bright
I will have the perfect tan I ever wanted
And the heart will glow as shiny as the face

If only the rain drops on the driest soil
resurrect the withering flowers and dying crops
Alongside nourishing the forgotten memories

If only...
