Best Prattles Poems


Premium Member Disassociating Dissonance
Lost -
Through an Eagle's eye
Over Fields of plenty
Where rivers and creeks
Never run dry
But I can't feel it

Mountains rising up
Touching the pink, blue,
And rustic orange skies.
I just don't know why
… I just can't feel it

I am a lost page within the novel
No one knows my inner...

Perhappenchance
perhappenchance

How a dog feels when his neutered
And the vet is undisputed
And the Shiela’s cut you dead 
with icy glaze

Coventry uninviting
Really not exciting
Hard eyes are a biting
Should I say

Quick as lightning’s frosty feelings
Inside her head is wheeling
Thoughts of hate now revealing
Petty jealousy 
this sunny day

Computer talks...

Lament of An Unbiased Breeze From a War Field
Cutest prattles of children I adore
Are now the loudest cries I bear
Oh, No! The grieves of these abandoned souls
The worst sounds I have ever heard

Mesmerizing songs of endemic birds I carried
have become a threatening alarm now
Migratory birds missed the way to their hometown 
Endemic ones...

Premium Member Pretty Talker
I watch her lipstick mouth; it never stops
its movement as she prattles on and on.
And now another famous name she drops,
her daddy’s latest client, known as John
by only his close friends!  She widely grins
while spilling secrets all about that guy.
I swear the Gossip Girls...

Devil's Miners - To the Messiah
If i could, I’d veil the earth
And keep it far without your view,
I’d wrap its bulk and hide its shape.
But that would be a waste of time.
Your eyes are those that see the depths
Of  the  deepest  bluest  seas.
I look around and...

Premium Member Empty Nest
Time crawled silently on soft paws.
After years of anxious waiting,
Our little nest became alive, 
With childish pranks and prattles
Two adorable boys ran round playfully,
Making our silent nest ring with noise.

Still remember those hectic days,
When my hands were so full 
From tidying the house to keeping...

The Withered Dream
Darkness, darkness everywhere
Like a warm blanket in winter
Like the shell of an oyster
Darkness, white and grey and blue and red 
Darkness makes me wildly mad

The old banyan tree has become my friend it so often invites me to chat
I chat freely with it though no...

Rebel Yell
In the sunken hollow a gray mass 
addles
A silhouette of swaying muskets 
shadows
Braying horses the silent vigil 
rattles
A curdling breeze across feted 
expanse prattles

The stilled pageant concludes with 
the order, "charge"
From sheltering tree line, a 
disheveled mass doth barge
A shrieking, cacophonous chorus 
christens the onslaught
Menacing...

A Daughter Unwanted
As sky lazily tints reddish purple bright
She resumes own day at melancholy twilight
Her scarlet lips and luring scent of night,
Dazzling smile wake up lonely hearts at sight

No wonder she's tactful on drunkard's prattles
Humbly strips off pure gentleman's prejudice
Though her soul wanders, physique is generous
Heart never...

Tax Payment and Tax Payers
This many guys dislike its mention
Including an owner of mansion,
From avowed lover walking away
And next time block his coming their way…

For even the steadfast tax payer
Regular payment not his prayer;
One could swear there’s no Tax Payer Max
Who wouldn’t want the rules to relax!
As often as...

My Blood Runs In You
Suddenly I came like a wrecking ball
Breaking all the bonds that binds your soul
I’m like the earth, the wind and the rain
Washing away your pains in pain
You couldn’t help the afflicted because you were one of them

Wherever you go to and whatever you do
Anyhow you...

Stop the World....
I blush when I think about the makeup
Of Man. At birth he's weak and insecure
He's helpless, ignorant- a little pup
Has more going for him than this treasure.
And when he matures, mental growth is slight.
He whines and pines and broods o'er picayune
Events: It's too hot! I'm...

The New Yorker
The New Yorker is having a birthday – 
It’s made it to one hundred years.
With each story, cartoon, poem or essay,
It’s jump-started many careers.

Despite what it’s called, you can buy it
At newsstands or else go on line
And subscribe – since my brother did try it,
He...

Premium Member His Bona Fides Unstained
Mr. John Kerry is not to blame
As he prattles on about climate change --

   "Much more important!" he warns, "than Ukraine"
    Thus keeping his woke bona fides unstained --

The Patrol
We booked on the radio as was the way
And out the station we drove away
The radio prattles its continual banter
As we policed the streets at a slow canter

There were disturbances some loud but not unique 
And pub brawls to make the night complete
There were shoppies...
