Best Pennsylvania Poems

Hershey, Pennsylvania’s a place I would like to go.
It is essentially a chocolate El Dorado.
This little town somewhere in the middle of the state
is truly a place many people consider great.
It’s just full of chocolate goodies without any doubt.
You can get chocolate bars with almonds,...

YOUR MORNING BAGEL Doylestown PA
Consider this, as buds break out on trees
not yet a leaf, the sight that no one sees
as walking through the borough mesmerized
past ancient mansions seen, not realized.

Through early morning air, our sence of smell
arouses to a bagels morning bell;
it tells us...

An artist in Pennsylvania
Was desperate to entertain yer
He would draw and draw
More and more
A clear case of pencil mania...

Did Call Pennsylvania Dutch

When old while walking needed crutch
And in every room could see a hutch;
Bridges going over water
With walls on long border;
So did call all of them Pennsylvania Dutch.

Jim Horn

Trump loves building borders
and boxing all of us in....

Pennsylvania

To see Penn’s Woods again in Fall,
my youthful days in fond recall.
With trees ablaze in red fireball,
my eyes are pleased in view of all.

Red, gold and Evergreen enthrall.
As roads unwind, beauty befalls.
The "Quaker State" has keystone walls,
spread over hills like gray prayer shawls.

I pass by...

(just in time for summer reading...
recounting emotionally disastrous campy turbulence)

Amidst a raft of fellow (Brandywine Valley
     Y.M.C.A) resident campers
     who, didst excitedly quiver
donning a "NON FAKE" lifejacket

     coursing down swiftly

PENNSYLVANIA
Walking dead through the forest,
with a girl I'd never know,
in her eyes was my future,
and she will not let it go.

Always thinking this was Heaven,
but I'd never know her well,
in her eyes is forever,
but my Heaven hurts like Hell.

In the forest is afountain,
always flashing in...

Where were the Declaration of Independence and Constitution signed?
Give up? It is Pennsylvania. One of the original thirteen colonies, one that is mined.
Keystone State, Quaker State, Oil State – which one is right? All three actually. 
Combing them to the Keystone Quaker Oil State would...

This is a growing Pennsylvania community.
Just south of Pittsburgh, it’s in Allegheny County.
This town has been incorporated since 1950.
This is a place with a rather long and proud history.
Baldwin stretches north along Becks Run.
It is just south of South Side Flats and Arlington.
The population per...

I see by the news that they may level a bit of Americana.
Alas, 'tis that old icon, the railroad depot in Richmond, Indiana.
I have many fond and not so fond memories of that old place.
Unless some good soul rescues it, 'twill disappear without a trace!

Groundhog Day 
What is it they say?
If he sees his shadow, six more weeks of winter 
Should we let something like this become a hinder
After all, this started as a Pennsylvania Dutch superstition 
Who thought of this proposition 
Was this used for farmers to seed...

A woman was raped on the train
But no passenger would complain!
They enjoyed the assault
And could not be at fault
For girls are born to entertain!...
