Best Pit A Pat Poems

Harvest Door

Indian summer sighs a shy farewell
Days pit-a-pat
To a door
Closing 
Shut
~
Fall
Knocking
Quietly
In harvest moons
While frost blows air kisses through the keyhole.

You still got it
Got it like that
My heart still goes pit-a-pat
Chills all down my spine
Whenever you're around
I look into your eyes
And I'm hypnotized 
The butterflies inside says
You still got it
Got it like that
Listen to my heart
It is going pit-a-pat
Pit-a-pat
Cuz, you still got it
Got it like...

Once in a dream an apostle fed you mandrake,
but it was poison after all, 
not the panacea where you emerge into sunlight, 
clouds accumulating,
as one imagines speaking Latin in ancient libraries.
You reach for your cashmere whisper
while song notes cluster like cherries on a clef 
and...

The pattering rain
bliss to the mutual barter
pit-a-pat is gone

~ Where should I start this poetic trace? ~

Supple summer, season scene
Takes off coats and welcome warmth
And tranquil under soften sky.

Spring 'O' Spring precedence over summer...
Summer host long light evenings,
Carol patterns and seldom pit-a-pat.

Fertile season, holder of juicy jubilee
Easter burners' night, palm Sunday pedestrian...
And good...

The rainy night crept unto the woods,
with the leaves ticking,
singing in ghastly moods,
The drizzling drops went pit and pat 
meow meow!!!! cried out the cat.

All dark, all alone
Creepiness build by its own,
The bats sighed, 
and the animals howled,
The greeness deepened to the hollow dark,
A gush...

Down the drainpipe the water clanged,
flowing in loud torrents,
pit-ter-pat-ter the metal sang
a sad and sorrowful lament. 

The sky had burst with tears of woe
and sparrow fled to nest.
The butterflies where did they go
when all of us sought rest?

So long, the earth was drowned in rain
that...

Roaring thunder booms
Inky shadow looms
Soft rain
Angry lightning fumes
Smoky vapour plumes
Wet lane
Heaven's water wombs
Harsh downpour assumes
Throb strain

Pit a pat refrain
I hear the campaign
Of sky
Pounding on my pane
Drenching dry terrain
Clouds cry
Nature's water reign
Petrichor again
Pleased sigh

Refreshing supply
Sure does gratify
Clears glooms
Raindrops moisten my
Earth and purify
Her rooms
Showers signify
Blessings poured from...

I won a chess game in the heat, they say that
chess players are nerds, like Robert the rat,
he comes into my garden, can't escape my black cat,
persistence pays off or rather down like a brown splat.

I won a bridge game in the heat, they say...

Rat-a-tat and pit-a-pat!
‘Pon my word!
Pit-a-pat and rat-a-tat!

It’s a bird –
A woodpecker knocking!
Loudest I’ve heard!

His noise shocking!.
Thrashing the habitat.
His visage mocking....

There is famous jungle cat, you may even  know him . Dextor is his name , he walks with grace about his space in Windsor Castles Garden, pit a pat down the cobbled lane  ..Should you be blessed , you'll see him in...

Harvest Moons

Indian summer’s green corn moon
Sighs a shy farewell – adieu -
Days pit-a-pat through a slowly closing door.

Amber autumn quietly knocks
In harvest hunter barley moons -
Frost blows air kisses through the keyhole.

Rainfall from the heavens

Flashing lights on the horizon

Tapping drops from the skies on frilly rooftops

Whooshing splashes on leafy greens

Pit-a-pat...pit-a-pat...!, rhythmic sounds on rusty metals.

 

Grey sky with thin silver linings

Stretching abreast its surface with thundering blasts

Wavery but gentle on the earth

Deep letterings on sandy soils

Drenching...
