Best Samson Poems
Samson and DelilahYesterday with its yearnings and sorrow
With shadows and sunbeams at length;
Have gone where the fears of tomorrow
Took a man whose conceit was his strength.
His transient raptures brought shame
From the temptress that ravished his soul;
Taking strength and tarnished his name
From the power he had that she...

Samson and DelilahDelilah: Samson! Why do you imprison my love in the dungeon of mistrust?
The hypnotism of my succulent breasts, and the soothing soft feel of
my moist lips, your stolid heart betrays.
You really do have the strength of a God, but even a God is subject to

There was a young man named Samson
Who was strong, rugged and handsome
He had hair curly and long
That made him exceedingly strong
But a haircut was the demise of Samson...

Samson 2SAMSON 2
Samson killed a thousand men
With the jawbone of an ass
There was no other man alive
In mighty Samson's class
But his strength departed from him
After all was done and said
Because a lady named Delilah
Shaved mighty Samson's head

Unsent Letter of Samson For Delilah(Crumpled and Torn)Dearest,
There would be no nightfalls
thereunto your eyes but partly goosebumps
nor would be nightscapes along your brows
even an inch above their shorelines
where darkness heaves
no. When shadows dance in tip-toed pirouette to the tune of your hairfall
whose breaths breathe...

The Song of SamsonMonoah had a wife,
who was barren most her life.
An angel came and whispered in her ear,
you'll have a son and hold him dear.
Now the angel said, "No unclean things to eat,
don't drink strong wine
and Samson your son,
should be just fine."
Oh! But...

Samson the Genius He-DogThe thug’s greedy plan was ill-fated.
“Beware of the dog!” the sign stated.
Sharp teeth pierced his butt.
He screamed, “Get off, mutt!”
Desire to steal quickly abated.
For Samson, fame was just beginning.
This brave dog would set the world spinning
with such doughty deeds,
supplying the needs
of many while great kudos...

All Nature listened falling mute
But when Samson sang
It sounded like a bang
That sleeping babies woke up with a jolt...

SamsonSamson
I dream of the summer, when
We slept soundly and so did the city
Like a doll, you never changed
The scissors mocked me;
“Never to cut, never to cut”, they chant
We were tethered by the book we read
My bookmark was always ahead of yours,
On the night side table,...

Dramatic Monologue
Me and SamsonI would sit at his feet
When he’d rest for a spell
From his task of plowing
That looked like pure hell
Now his voice was so soft
And his manners were the best
Wearing overalls and brogans
With a huge muscled chest
Said his...

SamsonI lay there in a daze
watching you sleep
with thoughts racing in my head
as I was trying
to memorize your face.
I just wanted to hold you,
Wishing that I could show you how I feel
for it might be the last chance..
the last day together
one moment I would...

The Strength of Samsonhttps://m.soundcloud.com/user-921599710/the-strength-of-samson
The children of Israel, standing tall
Jericho and conquests beyond the fall
Possessing Canaan, equipped to defend
Tribes of twelve, of which they descend
From Joshua’s death to the Promised Land
False gods worshipped at every command
Returning to evil ways unpleasantly
God promised judges to bring victory
Israelites oppressed, Philistines of power
The...

I Don'T Like the Look of Those Scissors, DarlingBut a brush and a touch, one parting more.
Delilah, Moon-girl, you stole my strong light.
I, your Sun-boy, am shorn having blackout,
but remember my close shaves, the honey
and dead days, my foes jaw-struck,
as the long-winded she-ass brays in my ear.
With influence silverish, drowning golden locks,
the egg-eating...
