Best Spurned Poems
Spurned LoveShe awoke
to a blazing sun,
brightest orb,
day’s lover.
The moon, jealous of her love,
cried for the night’s loss.
She, sleeping,
missed the soft caress,
silken touch,
palest rays
that beckoned her to waken
and taste their sweetness....

Limerick: Once a Mom Tigress Spurned Her Lame-Born CubLimerick: Once a Mom Tigress spurned her lame-born cub
for Commandant Cousteau’s son
Once a Mom Tigress spurned her lame-born cub
Wild Life Champ admitted cub to his club
Took cub under his wing
Till she could wildly spring:
Club members now learn to swing the knobbed club.

SpurnedThere was a courtly gent name Hearn.
Who was fastidious from stem to stern.
He showered morning and night.
Kept his teeth pearly white.
But couldn't find a wife worth a durn....

'spurned Date'Guess what...I got her number,
I exclaimed in my slumber!
I woke up all excited,
believing love would make us united!
So I asked her out for a date,
knowing her reply would seal my fate!
She spurned my only request,
I gave up my dream conquest!
Wish she would understand me better,
I...

SpurnedFlopped like a wilting weed
Wedged in an arid crack,
Gobbled up the spurt of seed
And floundered on the back,
Spurned and cast away,
Swallowing with glee,
Begone, I tell myself,
As quick as you can be.
Flopped like a dying bloom
Dumped on a garbage heap,
Gobbled up in ashen flesh
And compost ridden...

Verse
SpurnedGod sent his Son, so long ago,
To take away all sin and woe.
But many hearts were closed in sin,
The Holy Gift could not get in.
Thus we still have unholy wars,
The greed and shame our God abhors.
He sent His Son to bring us love,
Fresh from the...

A Gift SpurnedA Christmas gift spurned
In a busy Christmas street, I saw her; I was sure it was her,
the way she walked, I could sense her perfume too.
Ran after her, touched her shoulder said halloo, she turned
I had been wrong and said sorry.
She smiled and said,...

Spurned LoveOh wretched heart, that beats with sorrowed sighs,
And mourns the loss of love once held so dear,
For thou art now the object of despise,
Rejected by the one thou held so near.
Thou art the fool who loved with all thy might,
And gave thy soul to one...

Paradise SpurnedStrelitzia reginea is utterly pretentious!
Its claim to fame is so contentious!
For it is not a bird, that's absurd!
As sinner impenitent, from paradise it's spurred....

We Spurned Their LoveWe were off to school
and oh-so-brave
We spurned the love
our parents gave
But now that they
are in the grave
Too late we find
their love we crave...

who dallied with the lasses and then spurned
till one day he tangled with Molly
who wouldn’t put up with such folly
and poor ole O’Byrne got burned

AprilI can feel the gentle push
A yellow hue claims the blue
And I’m looking directly at you
At the end of April
Sunlight streaks down my neck like bugs
As they crawl to my back
Sifting their juices on my pale skin
Turning me red with embarrassment
It hurts when you...
