Best Spoons Poems

...A poem
is a spoon
that you can bend
with your mind.

It depends on psi
if you 
are mutant 
X or Y 
a paranormal opportunity 
or a wild talent
of psionic penmanship .

Stare at the pattern 
on the handle
as you imagine 
the handle
either roses or unicorns
are emblazon here.

So much the...

Where are they now the fighters?
Fighting for their freedom as well as ours
Survivors of those turbulent war years 
The silent heroes
Saving us
Sparing us the trauma they faced
Hiding from us their fears
And the actions forced upon them
The nightmare’s they faced
Were theirs alone
They sheltered us with their...

Moon Spoons

We dive into each other with love from highest peaks of the mountain
               quench our thirst with no parachute needed as we drink from the fountain
in free fall we enter...

Spoons. . .
Bright and shiny artful spoons,
How much she loved them.
They covered her mauve walls
In rich wooden frames
Encased behind glass.
Each unique silver spoon
With its own special story to tell.

There was Montana. . .
A silver cowboy riding a
Bucking bronc, enamel inlaid,
On a twilight blue sky
In a...

Silver Spoons
 
 

The disruption and the dismay left my will fray.

Corrupted and disillusioned are the eyes that see.

Bottled up and distilled are the souls sitting to be.

I’m just stunned they were all left being that way

 

Duck, duck goose I’ll tap...

If you think that money brings happiness, then you're wrong....
that thought makes your heart weak, you got to make it strong...
kings too cry inside their castles...
and fight their own hidden battles...

Everybody is good at wearing plastic smiles...
hiding their problems which are in piles...
silver spoons aren't...

Silver spoons sit at evening diner tables
Forks and knives acompany these lonesome
Silver Spoons.
No one orders soup, but instead a large steak,
with mashed potatoes and gravy, with steamed vegetables.
The fork and knife are put to good use,
As the silver spoon sits there and watches,
As grimy hands,...

We choose our scoops with our silver spoons. Try and deny that it's coming soon. 
   Don't fool yourself when you're giving up. Just sip your drink from the dirty cup. 
   And where the fiddler plays. Is where the woodland...

With Careful Spoons

Your perfume essence speaks of lazy afternoons under sage trees.
You kissed my bent neck with a pointed snake of sweet saliva eyes.
Now we are twisting inside my slow tilted bedroom with creep shoes.
Your gray short skirt shows slender legs flashing firm nylon divots.
Panties...

Snowman spoons we tenderly made,
Some looked sickle and some looked spade;
Snowmen on cocoa hot,
Lay forethought spot forgot; 
On each, our kitten made a raid…!

Lecturer came in class boasting
ready to lecture to students
in his hand was a nice brief case
not of lecture materials
but of something else
it was a brief case of spoons

He stumbled and the thing fell
unwashed plates, saucepans, spoons
scattered all over classroom
students run out scared
laughing and bending with...

There once was a girl from the south
Who had a hard time with her mouth
Boy with same issue said, (S)"poon!"
She said, "Not poon! We say,  "poon!"
Correcting his speech without doubt.


 To thin girl we constantly had to say, 
"Pull up your pants,...

The sweat was wiped off the brow
The spoon was stirred as they knew how
For 18 times they tried to win
A story state to be in

And KG woke to find a haul
Of wooden spoons counted one and all
How to curb such an embarrassment 
Even when The...

Milton’s Dork had a brother in Troon
Who had hoped he’d be cuddling soon
With a cute dominatrix
Who hailed from The Matrix
Until she said, “There is no spoon!”

Uri had a little spoon
He stroked it with intent
And everywhere that Uri went
The spoons were proper bent
