Best Snouts Poems


Premium Member Goodbyes
Ears pricked at car door closing in the street,
and focussed on the footsteps through the gate
she stepped into the hall, unsteady feet
they bounded forward, welcome couldn't wait.
Two forty pounds of fur, and sixteen legs,
four eager snouts and tongues shot through the air
her hands held up...

News flash
Huge bash

Big fight
Last night

Clyde's Bar
Bizarre

War zone
Chairs thrown

Snouts poked
Gals choked

Eyes blacked
Ribs cracked

Hair snatched
Backs scratched

Throats slashed
Heads bashed

Tossed stools
Blood pools

Ears chewed
Tossed food

Knees kicked
Knives pricked

Low blows
Stomped toes

Dames sprawled
Cops called

Clyde's closed
Foreclosed

Okay! Time to get off the weather kick

There's lots more to write about

Like how many jelly beans in a 2 quart jar

If you leave all the red ones out

Or why do pigs have such really flat snouts

A fart that did damage to an edifice

Or the...

Book: Radiant Verses: A Journey Through Inspiring Poetry



You Kindle the Lamps
You kindle the lamps
Little earthen bowls 
Holding circles of mustard oil
Wicks like snouts of desire
The sober flame radiating rosy heat
Smell of ripened wheat

I get my book
Under the leaves of the light
Words snuggling in delight
The dissolving nights recede
Your pent-up poems, all freed
You become the words

Swords disappear
Mightier...

Me, the contrarian, 
	hardcore vegetarian,
Would rather eat wombat snouts
	than brussels sprouts....

One sunny day, two big animals are walking in the field.  The first animal said, "Do you see what I see?"

"What?... Where?!" replied the second animal.

"There are three small animals stuck in the soft soil.  Let's help them!"

The second animal said, "They are...

Lizards
lizards 

black tar sweats, squabbles, shakes in the glare of the ocean of blue.
white light engulfs the sky. 
stealing the heat we grip the ground with our claws.
scan the black tar with our yellow eyes. 
our blood begins to warm.
her hair is melting to soft...

Newbury, Berkshire
Berkshire is a landscape
Of beauty and perfection
Unless you live in Newbury
You'll cling to this perception
Even though this town
Seems quaint unto a stranger
He is yet to analyse
 the average locals behaviour
A rich man races horses
Then drives back to his village
A newburian's quite different
He'll sniff, he'll lie,...

Firing Squad
Take it away
Right now—see here…look here
Run into the light where one shadow casts an intent, lowly eye
Into the very heart of the storm, the words fall with might

You see a word and take sail as doubt and understanding foretell
A heartfelt message meant to destroy all...

All the doggies are looking eager, there's a breeze blowing up 
Even the older ones are feeling perky, just like they are a pup

All snouts are at the door jambs they all know there is breeze 
With the occasional one with dust up their nose...

Seahorses...Why?


Dear Mother Nature woke one day,
   and looked around with a sly smile,
surveyed her Earth, both land, and sea,
   then paused to think for quite a while.

She beamed with joy with her new plan,
   to think outside the box,...

Premium Member Seahorses
Swimming side by side in unison among red coral,
Entwining occasionally in their colourful pre-dawn dance,
A pair of small creatures resembling 
Horses of the sea 
Or perhaps Pegasuses - with pectoral fins
Rapidly fluttering like hummingbird wings -
Swirl and sometimes touch snouts, as if kissing.
Ending their ritual,...

Privately educated, privileged backgrounds .……no problem per se …….…but ......we're led by these plum in mouth toffs by the troughful.…... their snouts in the pockets of the electorate, creaming the real workers of cash for taxes .…....so long as they're okay with backhanded deals and...

PHANTASMAGORIA

If you don't like where you are..take a trip in your mind
Look in your brain's dark corners and see what you find
There are places a groaning board tempts with an epicurean delight
But the populace heads for the worst comestibles in sight
When choosing Burma or Myanmar...
