Best Stoppers Poems
You, Me, and CandyLove is the essence.
Your presence is flavor.
I'll savor you "Now and Later."
Your sweetness is one,
of many candies,
not just good night pillow mint "Andes."
I'm a "sucker" for you,
like an "Everlasting Gobstopper," forever true.
Even if there's "Mounds" on the "Rocky Road,"
we'll "Crunch" it out and keep our...

My Christmas Card Poem This YearWinter is the last to the stage
The headlining act
Of a year almost gone
It has a few show stoppers up its sleeve
As Christmas and New Year
Prepare to put their best show on
Patiently waiting in the wings
Seeing Spring, Summer and Autumn
All take to the stage and perform
Its...

It's Black history month, so we come to celebrate,
all the hues of brown that made our nation great!
From Fredrick and Harriet to Mandela, and Muhammad Ali, because of the stance they took, we are allowed to be free.
Langston, Louis, Billie, Malcolm,...

Kadidlehopper's Burger WhoppersClem Kadidlehopper had two whoppers,
Two burgers with the works may be stoppers,
Double meat, egg, beetroot, tomato and cheese,
For a burger connoisseur this could only please,
No problem for Clem and his great big choppers.
alternate last line: Clem woofed them down with his great big choppers....

Fond MemoriesWe weren't rich by any means
but our bellies were full and our clothes were clean
They didn't display those high priced names
but they wore fine just the same
We didn't ride around in fancy cars
Grandma saved pennies in a big glass jar
We learned early that money doesn't...

Our First Homebefore the key touched the door
and even before
the agent real-stated this, our home
i heard the rafters, door stoppers and shutters
rattle with our love
i saw
the garden you’d grow
that’d so
open my eyes
i came to see too

Met a cute girl there by the way,
Only thing about that I can see
She had terrible stank breath...whooooeee !
On top of that, when I could again peruse,
I gathered my wits...

A Better LifeWhen I was born,
My hands were empty.
When I was died,
My hands were empty.
What was a difference?
When I was born.
My family relatives and friends
Congratulates to my family.
My father got proud on my Mum.
And arranged a big party,
And celebrated as a happy day.
I have seen happiness...

Name
Magic of a Mountain ClimbRocky trail
Fallen trees
Fresh scent of pine leaves
Scattered acorns
Wild blooms
Thundering sounds of a graceful brook
Brightly red
Cylindrical Snow flowers
Show-stoppers for enthusiastic hikers
Chirpy Jays
Traces of wild foxes
Immensity of rocky mainstays
Spring storm
Shivery gales
Sprays of tiny snowflakes
Wood bridge
Nimble stream
Magic of a mountain climb...

Dwell among tent dwellers the

Deus Et Tribulationetime slides ever to the right,
neither scabrous skidding mark,
nor faint leavings of wisdom’s feast,
only gouged furrows, upturned days,
to love only ideas of love,
inane this hate of a cruel gentle kiss,
blackened hollow, sunken chest,
banal sacraments bless clamoring voices,
blown down a narthex like noisy wraiths,
screaming attention...

Do Unto OthersWelcome to the new millennium
Seven years in the making.
Forever forsaking.
Every year touted as the last one on earth
Yet we all know the worth
Of a dollar.
Holler if you hear someone knocking
On heavens door.
No one lives there any more.
We bury our ineptitude in Prozac
Leaving a chemtrail of...
