Best Roy Poems
Roy and the Land of BooksIn the land where children play.
A boy named Roy would sleep all day.
No matter what his friends all said.
The boy would not get out of bed.
For he was very bored with toys.
The ones for little girls and boys.
He said that they were all the same.
The cars and trucks and every game.
But then one day Roy...

Roy Rogers on Trigger his horse
Was a regular tour de force
He made it his quest
To clean up the West
Then end with a love song of course

Bio
When Roy SangA song came on the jukebox and we listened with intent
He sang "Only The Lonely" with a voice that was heaven sent
I was only in eighth grade, a few years from being a man
There was "Blue Angel" and "I'm Hurtin' " and I became a die hard fan
We'd go downtown to the Coffee Cup to...

Roy G BivHere I have something not all of you may know.
It is a mnemonic of the rainbow.
Here are colors of the visible spectrum.
The sun’s rays coming in a continuum.
This is the light shining during the day.
Throughout time, it has been coming our way.
There is red, orange, green, and indigo
as well as, blue, violet, and yellow.
After a...

Uncle RoyUncle Roy written by Shadow Hamilton
As the evening drew in and birds settled to roost
the world seemed to give a collected sigh
as it stood poised waiting in the wings
the time had now come to gather up a soul
For a long time he had fought the invertible
reluctant to the end to leave and travel on
memories flashed...

Epitaph
Hermit RoyRoy lived in the boondocks in a little Georgia town.
Living off his land, the hermit had hunkered down.
His neighbors thought he was downright strange,
But really he shunned any human exchange.
One day a little black dog wandered on his land,
A friendly little thing taking food right out of his hand.
The dog had tags, so Roy knew...

Mrs. Roy G. Bivdressed in black, I write to you
shades of blue flicker across my face
while I lay in my bed
I see a drop of a rose red hue
roll gently down your face
a green olive swirls in a martini glass
grey smoke fumes from my nostrils
craving your breath in my lungs once more
I sink my ivory white teeth into...

RoyA Merchant Marine
At fifteen, he went to sea
A way to begin
Harsh Realities
Learning to be a real man
Life was on the run
Scrapes and falls and bumps
Toughening the young fledgling
Losing some feathers
A long way from home
He creates identity
Memory soon fades
Glipses of the past
Filtering through the sunlight
Illusions of life
Like dust collecting
Every surface is covered
Every thumbprint counts
Opening new...

The Roy Rogers RangeOh, I wish that this old world
Was like the Roy Rogers’ range—
Where every boy and girl
Didn’t have to view folks strange.
It used to be safe outside—
All the children could go play—
But now they worry and hide
In their homes both night and day.
Seems there’s just too many ways
That our kids can now be harmed—
They’ve missed their...

Roy and the Sign of Nabii JonahHe is sworn in holding a branch
Cut from the tree of life and a vine
That's sacred he swears to protect
His people the tree and the vine
He swears by the sacred abode
Shortly afterwards he gets the vision
Go to Nineveh Jonah and warn them
He departs not to nineveh but to Taasis
Aboard the ship they have no option
But...

I Want To Meditate With Roy OrbisonI was in the middle of a PowerPoint
About Pastafarianism
Then I noticed someone in the corner
Not paying attention
Lost, looking tired
I heckled to him
"Paul, quick, candy-coloured clown..."
He found the song on his laptop
I checked the speakers and adjusted the volume
I picked
Up the microphone and sang, looking at the student in the corner...
"Go to sleep, everything is alright."
They...

Wanna Walk With RoyIn dreams, I always wanna walk with Roy,
I think that my scary feelings ain't right.
I'm just running scared like a silly boy -
alone, so lonely, this feeling tonight.
Tell me, are you as lonely as can be?
I had long thought that I was over you.
How ever will you give your smile to me
and then, dearest darling,...
