Best Separate Beds Poems
Holiday HorrorWe had just got married - was the month of June
This is the saga of our disastrous honeymoon
We started off in a hotel in Norwich
The bedding was itchy just like doing ‘porridge’
Back home to Birmingham to get ready for our cruise
To the Norwegian Fjords ...

Praying MantisMy girl she can keep very still,
it's no major act of will,
and can hold a stare without her eyelids dropping,
with her arms held out and bent
you can't tell that her intent
is to quickly swipe my wallet and go shopping.
She hides her feelings to me
and I'm...

No matter how big, no matter how very small
Amid ferns green lace to show her humble face
With rows of flowers and dainty plots of grace

Great Grandma Kicked Some ButtWhen my mother was at the age of thirteen,
A dirty old man asked her to come clean,
He invited her over so she could make a few bucks
When she arrived he was in a black tucks
He was the neighbor across the street,
His wife was at work...

One Last Tear For Giving Thanks ContestOne last tear
I will shed for your absence
I refuse to suffer more pain
Hurt now replaced by anger
Rejection & humiliation
With relief and pride
I did nothing wrong
Except love you
Until the end
That moment
Decided by you alone
To move on
Live your life as a single man
Before we had even parted
Before...

Bed BattleSweet dreams and I love you
It starts so simple and pure
and then before you know it,
you're in a full fledged war
Honey you're on my side
Could you scootch over just a little?
Well sweetie-pie I tried,
but you're laying in the middle
Please don't wake me if I mumble
I...

She Be the Queen of ShebaShe be like the Queen of Sheba,
the most beautiful beauty I’ve ever seen.
She walks this world with a majestic gleam,
shining bright as angels beam.
I just want to protect her from all that’s mean,
the men, the pain that she has seen,
making sure...

AcceptanceI was at school and this girl caught my eye,
I had never been attracted to a girl before that I cant deny,
I was so confused because she wasn't a guy,
But those hands I wanted to occupy.
We became inseparable,
Spending all our...

The EndWhen everything to bits is blown and all
remained of us are brainless bits of bone,
I wonder who will see our species fall,
all snapping selfies on our Android phones.
He’ll have to be E.T., most certainly,
to have survived a fool’s apocalypse.
And if I’m right, he’ll use telepathy
instead...

Shadow and Light(Written in response to the poem “Black and White.”)
Over age 40? Here’s some truth from the new generation.
Don’t get me wrong,
I love those old shows.
Classics for long
All that and more.
But if I may speak a while.
Sir, sit down and please don’t be sore,...

Dramatic Monologue
Wishing This Was NowhereShall we go somewhere,
will we meet somewhere?
Am I the one you saw,
is this the face you showed?
I'm wishing this was nowhere,
just like you're searching elsewhere.
While the hills sang the rain song
I built a home in my heart
And when the river rang its laughter
You...

WhiplashConfusion, don't know how to feel.
What are we doing here?
My love for you has never been so real,
One moment dread, the next cheer.
Our love is so strong, our pain so deep,
We fight, we cry, we lose our heads,
We're...

Gone BeforeThe sum of what has gone before
Bulldozed throughout a slumlord block,
Evacuated, emptied souls,
Gutted, barrel, lock and stock.
Then ring-fenced in a shield of steel,
Buried in a foreign field,
Protected from the agony,
The savage reap of winter yield.
We ran, in...
