Best Shivers Poems

Wintry night, the clouds were churning
While the lightning lit the sky
The old house it shook and trembled 
As the howling wind went by.

I put out the waning candle
Total darkness all around
It felt cold, in bed I snuggled
Heard the thunder’s drawling sound.

It took ages till I...

Shivers In My Soul

The rain is falling soft tonight
a cold chill fills the air.
I search the sky for stars above
not a single one is there.

Remembered times, forgotten rhymes
from nights I lost control.
From deep inside the tears I cried
like shivers in my soul.

With thoughts of yesterdays...

Ive no need to laugh
if your unseen
and even to breathe
would be obscene


The smell of you
taints my nights
and touching skin
my pure delight


Exquisite this love
shivers my ground
nothing could ever  
resemble your sound


Rumbling laughs
vibrate to heart
trembling moments
I hoard for my part


Even in anger
a control is seen
never could...

Ashes adrift in cold breezy whispers 
Mesmerized Monday finally seen 

So I sat here/there fingers achingly tapless over blurred keys. 
Wetly wondering in salted moving air... 
Clouds huddle together crowding for position- 
avoiding the ever sinking sun 
Welcoming darkness impatient in the wings.... 

Soon .....well...

A lonely tree sits
branches dancing in the wind
shivers in the cold.

Some stories give me goosebumps. They are found 
in books and films that tell of wicked clowns
or evil children whose cold, empty eyes
cast spells on hapless people all around.

To chase that eerie feeling from my mind,
I spend an hour watching Looney Tunes!

True stories really chill...

Ocean shimmers under iced-kissed skies,
crystal waters freeze the silken shore.
We inhale the chilled mist of biting winds,
cleansing soreness from our pined outpour

We stroll on thick mittens, hand in hand,
squeeze cool,  sharp flakes between our toes.
Grizzly waters lap our sandal strands
shiver the beach, the Ice...

SHIVERS UP THE BACK

Taking a dive at an amusement park,
He was taught to notice the arc of sharks.

          Stay out of their way,
          And don’t try to...

I was sitting in a church filled with light and beauty 
listening to an organist as he gently fused my soul 
Even the flowers on the alter seemed to be entranced
in this ethereal place where hardened hearts erase ; 
And as I offered prayers to...

It’s too

				        The blustery wind

If you could see how other people see you now
Open your heart and soul you know what to do
Look to the sky, grab some rays from the sun 
Use that newfound energy to have some fun
Your smile radiates in a powerful way
You think you are...
