Best Reception Poems

Thank you for the love you shared
Thank you for the time you spared
Thank you for the effort you made
Thank you for the support you gave
Thank you for picking me up when I fell
Thank you for your sincerity
But most of all thank you for teaching me
Respect,...

A Welcome Reception
or Receptionist and a Poetry Recital

Take care of dolls and put them on display
And a story each one will have to say
About the time there was such a hush
Because their teeth they forgot to brush.


They were all afraid to smile anymore
Gums were starting...

Her single bouquet
of white roses
slowly expire,
in a cheap crystal vase,
atop a dust-laden
bookshelf.
Petals crying
a lover’s lament
are overheard by
out-patients of Eros
and other
nameless receivers.

She scrapes
her flushed face
against the claws
of a stuccoed wall.
Hidden cutlery
shares space
with buried photographs.
Scores of broken nails
and bleached hair follicles
float so neatly
in rusty brass tureens
filled with...

Wedding Reception

       We’ll settle by the bar and watch
        the women dance, then split a likely
        pair, when we think we stand a chance.

Reception At The Heavenly Destination
     ( Tribute to- The Last Journey.)


Home far away in that shrinking mist of light
this moment is for earthly mortal passing
Up ahead glows a brilliant golden Heavenly sight
one that any imagination fails in surpassing.

Well, the big gate...

A couple got married in the Winter Wonderland
For the reception they hired a mariachi band
They danced a Spanish jig,
Then left in a borrowed rig
Stiffing the poor caterer because the food was bland.

Chants ranting
rants chanting
narcissistic voices
deliciously pounding

Vicarious words
devilishly dancing
choruses spewing
copious chords

Muses climax
narcotic pleasure
poets revel
feeling hypnotic drums

Poetic coitus
lend me your ear
cry havoc
the Virgin Mary is hear...

Oh, jacket-face with zipper tugged tight,
please offer your brilliance. Share your light!
I beg your leg to tap indignant
to halt that spread of ice malignant:
rattle those cells to agitation
or watch me snap from such stagnation!...

How many times will you stop acting free
Just to please a perspective?
Always on the lookout for that peculiar spectator,
confining life to be so subjective.

Indulging in such a slender code of morality.
Even a wild youth is tied to the principles of an unbecoming age.
Sharing the social...

There is no fireplace
in your room
so I cannot come up;
still, the borders of your smile
eclipse my ambivalence,
warn of belatedness.

I journey home
and slip into sleep
fix my gaze into nightspace,
linger half-awake,
remember your whispers
when we were seventeen....

If I am not here to see
Let him in, my little chickadee
If the bell rings twice it’s a pair
Don’t shut them out, its’ not fair

If I don’t hear this little bird
He’ll fly away, not leaving a word,
From whence he came, it’s unclear
I could not see...

I found myself in a real bad pickle
my lady thinks I'm cheap to the nickel,
so I told her I would spend
but she screamed, "This is the end."...
Mad at, "Your boobs droop like an icicle!"...

Justly winged from worm to flying kin                                      ...

Mum said "birds of a feather flock together" 
so I searched for a man who liked similar weather 
until Dad stressed "opposites attract" 
and I tried to determine just what I lacked

"Small packages", Mum said, "held the best things" 
so I looked for a humble...

Can't get my station
Static driving me crazy!
No good reception

Got radio blues
And my tape deck's broken too
No CD player

What's a guy to do
When his music won't come through?
I guess I'll just sing!...
