Best Poofy Poems


Premium Member Half Moons
In our late teens
We’d all doll up
Half moons at our heels
Spit shined our shoes
Bell bottom pants
Precisely creased
Bright shirts with poofy sleeves
Hitting the snooker halls
And other local hangouts
Smoking cigarettes
So groovy and so cool
Radio blaring from our cars
Chick magnets
Destination
A&W drivethru
Rolled down windows
Waiting for our trays
Burgers and root...

Haiku-Coa Craziness
cocoa powder puffs
for velvet truffle cheeks...
chocolate blush

sunny yolk says hi
butter gives an oozing hug--
bitter choc just melts

mmm, good, just so good
chocolate tickles tongue...
happy throaty slide

messy brown fingers
hot weather melts bittersweet--
oh! just lick them off

no more chocolate
finished in one sitting--
run to store now

burning calories
off for chocolate...

Heather's Feathers
There was a young lassie named Heather,
Who played on the beach in hot weather,
She thought it a sin,
Just dressed in her skin,
So covered herself with three feathers.

II

Remember the beach-babe named Heather?
Who covered herself in three feathers?
The boys were aware,
And started to stare,
So now she wears...

What Gets On My Nerves
You want to know what annoyeth me? Let me count the ways!
I could weave a veritable tapestry of all my aggravations, mostly in 
light and deep crimson hues which signify the violence in my Heart.
Easily I could write a novel that reads like a laundry...

Today I feel a little goofy
Hair wild and is all poofy

I made oatmeal it is so sloppy
Have to drink it with my coffee

Can not walk as my feet are going flip floppy
No swimming either the water is to choppy

Ding dong no nothings wrong
My clock just...

To My Husband
To my love,
Do you remember all of this?
A casual night, to party, that ended with a kiss.
June 19 two thousand and twelve,
the night our very first kiss was held.
We continued a friendship, although here and there
We would hold hands, look at each other, and stare
The...

Animals Are My Prime Favorites, How About You?
I like cute dogs, poofy dogs, goofy dogs,

Wiggly Giggly Barking dogs, quiet dogs too,

Smart dogs, silly dogs, crazy dogs, lazy dogs,

Large agressive guarding dogs,

Those are just a few,

I enjoy helpful dogs, playful dogs, bashful dogs,

Hyperactive athlete dogs,

How about you?

How about birds, do you like birds?

Fat...

Beauty Pageants
"Straighten your sash
Don't wrinkle your dress
Listen when I scream at you
Just wait til I get you home"

Little girls in beautiflu dresses
Heavy make up, poofy hair
Some so young they don't know
It's their mom who wants them there...

Frostbite
The snow crunches under my toes.
I feel like Frosty, wrapped up and poofy yet bitterly cold.
Cracking ice, frozen breath, my nose turns a painful pink.
I scoop up snow without gloves,
To examine each individuality...
My life-long curiousity with Wilson A. Bently's science.
My fingers tighten and prickle with...

Premium Member All Her Pretty Things
poofy and pretty 
dresses of the royal court
all her pretty things
untouched; the affable king
an ineffectual spouse

*Teens when they married,
it took Louis XVI seven years
to have sex with his wife....

Fourteen
I was never one of those
“desirable” kinds.
Never will be.
And I’m okay with that.

But being 14 years old
Stuffing padding down my shirt
And smearing big sister’s makeup across my face

Just to get some 19 year old to stuff his tongue down my throat

Is what it took.
Standing
In front...

We Need More Like Me
I’m a man of no great ambition
Often described as a proper
Piddly poof…

Piddly, poofy, Godawfully goofy
Shnickered and shnookered totally
Over the roof…

Being a bit of a dipstick, is my claim to  fame
Not a hint of dignity
To my name…

To most men this would be… cause for dismay
But...

Cat
Stares at
The floor then
Smacks at the air
Jump, sprint poofy tail
Repeats process
Clearly she
Is so 
Bored!...

Premium Member Heaven Must Be a Library -
Heaven must be a library –
   An acquaintance in boredom said –
With many open levels that are airy
   And plush carpet on which to tread

With sliding ladders on the aisles –
   Coffee on tap and a poofy chaise
On which...

Premium Member Head full of Ideas
An Eiffel tower with a red bow popped up in the back
Of a head full of unauthorized ideas encouraged by whom?
Strings of pearls began lounging around, hanging from her poofy hair
Who is in charge of this dream? She asked her busy muse.
Tea kettles and pears,...
