Best Plumb Poems
Plumb LineOur neighbour is plumbing Mum's drain
As some drips were causing her pain
But mum is no fool
And his "special" tool
Like Dad's, will just make yellow rain...

jamming lookout, noggin perched, roiling thinking
uber wayfaring zealot, drills legendary phalanx.

- Plumb the Depths -'plumb the depths'
______________________
I. (slow melody begins in G minor)
i cannot fathom the sound soul you seem to wear when i’m near,
perpendicular passion without fear-
for the depths are not deep enough to measure our love,
my dear-
we share a...

Plumb the DepthsI will forget you,
Won’t let you forget me!
Yes, I will forget you,
Won’t let you forget me!
Heart would thump upon inkling your pass through,
Come on! I will still not turn around to see you.
Tears will roll down from my puffy eyes,
Won’t still merge myself into the...

Do you know anyone who fits this description?
There is something that I must confess
When you try to produce much progress
It always will seem to day after day
Destroy everything getting in its way.
Why have people become so obsessive?
With things considered to be progressive
Making...

Plumb CheekyCalled the plumber – a chronic late comer
the sink slow dripping since late last summer
his low hanging drawers
but one of his flaws
the pose that he struck – Oh, what a bummer.

Forthright citizen, If criticized, Unfair!,
Assured in Approaching Life's "Hurdle-cal",
Mich's husband devoted, likewise Lucas's Pere,
Spiritual thinker hardly heretical,
Kind, Kind, Kind, never one to scare,
Moral, principled always ethical,
For the NGA, Rob does contractors snare,
Pro at his roles, family & work, nobody's...

Outliving a Plumb TreeI drove back in time to my childhood home-for a funeral
I sniffed around some old stomping grounds...
the "monkey trail" was an overgrown path that led to the baseball fields
next to the tracks where the trains used to run
the first sign of a dying town, is...

Presidency plumb at mid seaAn aging Senate finds it hard to see,
The choice is between devil and deep sea.
For whom alas to bat,
Who dares to bell the cat,
At stake is the power-packed Presidency.

Plumb the DepthsOh, my darling as we promenade
Forlorn deaths of fashions stray
We go on along each way
As our hearts plumb the depths
As we then take a deep breath
We find that all we have left
In our lives is us and the Lord
As we plumb the depths of our...

Light Verse
A Plumb Blooming Big Pear Tree Near the Streets and Near Me-Near the curb, by the right of way;
Next to the street;
Over onto the sidewalk;
Where pedestrians stalk;
Twit the grasses trespasses;
A wild pear tree full of fruit
Double down swarming with bees;
Flying round;
No one is picking nor eating them;
Children that go to school even ignore them;
As I’m...
