Best Pricy Poems

Life is like a nut,
Differs in shape, size, color or crust,
Life is like a nut.
For some, it’s like a coconut,
Beyond the reach, safe from gust
Very important, much privileged!
Whether unripen or matured.
For some it’s like a peanut,
Malleable, fit in budget 
Widely spread, versatile no doubt
However, down...

This is for all the pretty girls,
with necks choked with ashen pearls,
and pricy shoes on your feet,
and pinned up golden tresses,
and virginal white dresses,
ready to make love complete.

Now when the wedding bells chime,
it will be an ideal time,
to think of the one you tossed.
The one...

Oh!!How great is Jesus’s love for a sinner
You graced me with your love and mercy
The gesture that I love to treasure 
Obtained with the blood that’s costly

 He was Shamed and disgraced for our iniquities
Insulted, stripped, and crowned with pinches  
All that for you...

Barking dogs echo beyond the doors of the pitch black night.Mysteries of the anxious dark buried deep in the heart of villains playing rock and roll at the poker table, coughing and spitting, feasting and dining while maliciously mocking John the Baptist severed head. A...

Two of my favorite things in the whole wide world.
Nothing could be better to this old country girl.
My idea of a perfectly euphoric day;
New socks neath my table and fried taters on my plate.

If I had the means, I'd buy new socks each day,
and with...

The cocktails were pricy,
but easy to consume
Body language said it all
and invited me up to your room.
 
Names are not important, 
no words will be spoken.
We play the game of strangers
and hope no hearts will be broken.
 
Our clothes are all crinkled 
and laying on...

Once upon a time
In a vast kingdom of Modern land
Oddly not in a far far a way suburban
Was there a pretty girl
Prettier than the Venus, some claimed
Softer than petals of rose, maids alleged

She was skinny, not eating much
Her maintenance fee were low you might have...

This low beam flies high
Searching for news in the skies
The answers drown only to come back around through the glow of simplicity sticks
and
Downtown vintage tricks
and
She’ll remain rain with drops of blame to entertain that
Lack
and you know how hard the mother fought to bring that flower...

I’d like to gift you this diamond ring
Shining on top of the low karat gold
For, my dear, while Valentine’s coming
Your fine finger will look really untold    

People glance would think authentic 
Briefly, appraises for a pricey jewelry 
Consider some adornments synthetic ...

Once my father made me a crown. I was five maybe, it was the fanciest crown you have ever seen, I am sure. As it was not cheap plastic or plain paper. It was made of the dust of the broken colorful glass balls. The...

My mother was an aristocrat,
at least in her own mind,
she had a certain noble air,
a ramrod for a spine.

She knew her face was beautiful,
exceptional and rare,
and when she walked into a room,
one and all would stare.

She held her mouth a certain way,
with Mona Lisa's guile,
but...

Miss Maribel Seward had an odorous pet skunk
She developed an allergy to the way it stunk
The antidote was pricy
It was pepper and spicy
But Miss Maribel could not smell it when she was drunk.

One day the angels will ask me
The heaven ticket to certify
My works on Earth to testify
I’ll show them papers of poetry

If the angels want to consider
One of the loveliest artistries
To assure a high-top quality
Exhibiting the genuine owner

My modest response will be
It’s too tough to remember
I...

NEW NEST 

Before sun awakes,
she decorates sky as first guest,
unlike huge house of bricks,
she encamps in niggling nest.

Before lily pop mouth out of petals,
like queen she twerks in all weathers,
unlike pricy vehicles,
she wallows in faithful feathers.

Before our breakfast flog from kitchen to table,
she chunk up...

If you spray paint a glass ashtray,
and smash half with a crowbar.
Some tool may pay cash for that,
at your local bazaar.

Only silly witticism,
don't take it to heart.
Though the violins begin,
what does define art?

One little metaphor,
which image will it bring?
When the wood warbler sings,
it's like crickets...
