Best Sherry Poems

Coffee, it is evident, is not Sherry's cup of tea;
She likes spirits like sherry and brandy
and knows the ropes of winemaking to a tee;
An oenologist by profession, like her pal Brandy,
found her niche in viticulture. Numbers of spirits
she's tasted, as a sommelier whose forté is...

Sherry, The One That Got Away
By Rick Rucker

Sherry was the one that got away,
I remember her to this very day,

She was quite a winsome lass,
I was far below her class,

Her brother was a friend of mine,
I first met his sister, with a smile of Sunshine!

I...

I do feel the need to air my intent
O, the smell of your sweet seductive scent
Your sensory feed draws me even closer
You make me a lyrical composer

I take a sip of your inner essence
and feel it is affecting my cadence
You intoxicate my moral fiber,
make me...

you know I'm not much for birthday wishes
but take this heart felt poem as one
with gentle dreams of joy filled fun
and know I'm thinking of you
throughout my every day
and even though I
haven't seen you
for awhile
I miss
you

A boy named Tracy & A girl named Sherry
Young and in love they decided to marry
They had their ups and downs
As most young lovers do
And after giving it their all
They decided they were thru
But when it's meant to be 
Not even the strength of the...

(A confession.)

She was as a tender flower,
 Blooming in the early spring.
 Such innocence, such kindness of heart,
 Such a fragile thing.
 From some other world than mine,
 So trusting and naive.
 A perfect mark for me (poor thing),
So easy to deceive.

 All of nineteen...

Sherry was an old-fashioned valentine’s day cat 
She loved sitting on fluffy day beds, cushy and fat.
Her parlor had a floral valentine’s day welcome mat
Gift from her latest amour, a tomcat named Pat

The trouble is that Pat’s sister is more than a bit of a...

In a scene where the character, Carrie,

shoots her hand from a grave, brave Sherry

jumped right out of her seat,

but to friends would repeat:

“that movie was not EVEN scary!”

There is a lady named Sherry
Who’s laugh is a blast quite merry
When asked if she shaves
She says no right away
Her cats prefer her legs hairy...

Show me roses summer fair,
Or light of star and sun,
I know Sherry everywhere;
There is no fairer One.

Take I left or take I right,
Or take I up or down,
Sherry's smile is in my sight,
And all my fair be found.

Vow me hours singing sweet,
Or rhyme me verses...

In a lovely village near the dell lived Jerry
He had an affair with a gallon of sherry
Imbibing the whole bottle,
He pulled hard on the throttle
And wound up very drunken in Londonderry.

Once upon a time undefined by algorithm
In your arms you had me
As we slow dance to mild blues 
Our hand and legs in a lover's tango
Like a puppet,you spun me to the rhythm
The walls echo my laughter and glee
So carefree, a heart that never felt...
