Best Smallest Poems

You may not be as tall as others
You may not have the prettiest face
You may not have the many riches 
You may not have gods given grace

By your actions you're the tall one
A smile that lights the dullest day
A kind heart that's always helpful

The rabbi had a lot of trouble
Blowing the shofar.*
The congregation waited
But the sounds were just bizarre.

Some strangled bursts of air came out
But music was resistant.
The notes he tried to play, I’d say,
Were pretty non-existent.

He tried three shofars – all were long,

Alan who is a great man and a peerless philosopher
Has run for public office including the presidency
Several times but still have not got to first base.
He casts a long shadow, 
but people don’t appreciate his shade.
Even his opponent who happened to be 
a small man...

I hold you close to me and I don't know why.
You give me strength and purpose I can't deny.

Like a dry sponge, you allow me to pour,
My soul into you and you never close the door.

You are part of me, like my arm or my...

The late afternoon sun is quickly setting
I walk alone along the graying concrete path
And spy an army of ants crawling over a dead bug
Even the smallest ants cast long shadows.

Masses of ants march swiftly and efficiently
Covering the corpse and dismantling its innards
Going about their task...

Why is the sky so much darker
When did the sun start to set
So many shadows are falling my pathway
Hoping my heart can forget

What is the meaning of never
Can I still stand on my own
How could you leave me out here in the darkness
Hiding these fears...

Once in time ,a cargo plane was flying 
above in the azure blue.
You see the plane was carrying seeds for planting,
or every size ,sort and hue.
When at once,the winds grew rough,
and the sky turned an angry gray.
The little plane was tossed and turned,
like a top...

The Prince was wicked pertinacious,
picky to the 'nth' degree,
inclined to be quite perspicacious
when considering Number Three.

The first had sadly disappointed,
not come up to scratch, you see,
and number two was ill-appointed
for a run at royalty.

His Princess must be slim and cracking!
all the things a bride should...

Even The Smallest Ants Cast Long Shadows

In a world so vast that the sky does grasp,
With not even the slightest sounded rasp,
There are those that some see as beauty so mighty,
And there are things that others see as the true Aphrodite,
Yet those with eyes not...

Though you may not know it, I often think of you.
My eyes may not show it, but they glow at your view.
It's as if I know your there...before I hear or see you.
Seems I'm suddenly aware --  auras touch like deja-vu.

You might feel as...

Borneo Pygmy Elephants are listed as, endangered
and they were isolated, about 300 thousand years ago
from their cousins, on mainland Asia and Sumatra
and they are known as, the smallest Asian Elephant

They have shrinking forests, with human settlements
and there’s a lot of logging, with a conveyor belt...
