Best Shaking Poems

I have a big, old froggie that lives in my ornate lily pond, so refined.
And every time I have a guest, he Farts and spurts water from his behind.
My son has named him bubbles and tells everyone, how he is so fine...
Now, you must know...

We sit across a table eating Pho; 
two old friends, sharing food 
and stories of our little worlds

Of my new love; my old projects
of his sweetheart; his old business
the dross men use to hide our hearts

We timidly tiptoe towards truth;
tiny steps in the deepening dance...

I was in an essay contest
It started in January
When we wrote our rough drafts.
Then the teacher paired us
Up for peer editing.
I was paired with
A boy with sapphire eyes.
When he read my essay, I had
Shaking hands.
He couldn’t find anything
In my essay 
For me to fix.
A few...

Shadows detach at dusk, and like bats
roost together in sinister rookeries at night,
wrapped in black mantles
hanging upside down, gossiping.

Peter Pan lost his shadow,
"do you know where they put my shadow?" he cried.
He found it in a chest.
He cried when water and soap failed to stick...

Lights out, lights out!
In the run about, the critters flee to me
Storm, blazing lightning, air too warm
My friends with fur feel a curse
On the wind- a sense of berzerk
Huddling together, kitty close for good measure
Ozone green, birds stop the preen
Feels like a train is gliding...

A  Sunny  Winters  day
Cool sun kisses skin.
Pastel coloured ocean
Shuddering salty sea
Pink apricot morning sky
Seaside meditation tape.
Rolling frothing waves
emerge at fast intervals
Driftwood on the shore
Gold sloping sand dune
Giant swirly starfish studs
Seagulls squawking high
Leopard jelly  sea slugs
Spiky  red rubbery corals
Glittering foam sparkles
Extreme...

there's a whole lot of shaking going on and you're all shook up
but that is how life is when you drink from God's cup
life can take unexpected turns and have you all spun around
just remember who's in control and has the power to settle life...

Tears hang in my eyes
While I overthink myself
To death. Thinking of
All I've done wrong
And all the ways 
I should tell you
I'm in love with you.
My heart beats out of 
My chest when you
Come near. Can you
See my shaking hands
Or is it all in my head?
A...

I shook his picture
As if it would say am sorry
I did not mean it.
I dropped it on the chair and
Stared deeply into his blissful eyes
As if he would say please forgive me
I did not mean to hurt you
I couldn’t break the picture
Though I wished it...

Sipping slow and deep from a steaming cup 
of lemoned tea that keeps his rubbery hands steady,
His ever-meshing throat clears and his shaking lips utter agedly...
"Son, a man is as he speaks to his groin.
You are the red staining my now limping heart,
You are the...

Earth Quaking

He was trying to receive our backing
All of America started ran shaking
Taking our benefits away
Am sure with no delay
Whole earth will be quaking.

Or what's up doc was quacking.

I've tried to claim immunity
from feelings deep inside
to face life with impunity
so from these feelings hide

But man's not meant to be alone
Just to himself be tied
Each lonely day that man is shown
His emptiness inside

You told me that you cared for me
I feared of course you...

It started when my 7 year old son was diagnosed with adhd/odd,
You have no rest taking care of a child with a disability,
Years went by I did all I could nobody knew or asked,
I would cry over the smallest thing then shake it of and...
