Best Striped Poems
The Striped ZebraThe art displayed by nature is a gift-
sometimes not noticed in a passing glance.
To pause, look, and admire creates a shift
as we observe this artwork- not by chance.
Yes, nature paints with its creative tools,
those grand designs...

Mr Tee Striped Small Headed CatStriped small headed cat name of Mr. Tee
He does not have any idea how it came to be
But his body is huge, and his head is small
He is fluffy, but looks enormously tall
I am out of kilter, he says, with a wheeze
Hoping his litter mates...

Waddling Wafer In Striped PjamasA waddling wafer in striped pyjamas
A feathered goblin often chews a tail from a sweet scented twig but a pixie can eat over two hundred caramelised pebbles in one single bite and swallow. Swallows passing in the colourful air are simply at ease with gyrocopters...

Striped NothingsFloating on a river of fire
sitting in a cooking vessel
you were invoking the rain god.
Your hollow words had holiness
of unmeaning.
The sky opens the third eye.
Are you going to offer your
tongue to a footwear
of a proxy blood ?
As a hymn to goddess of wealth,
sugar is thrown...

StripedZebras and tigers and lemurs’ long tails
Have stripes both distinctive and cool,
As well as some convicts in old-fashioned jails
Who wear black and white stripes as a rule.
The American flag and a barbershop pole
Both have candy-candy stripes white and red,
While some p.j.’s and blankets and sheets...

Striped Or Blotted Cat ContortonistIs a striped cat a better contortionist than a blotted cat?
I have no idea, so decide to compare the two groups.
One problem. All of the blotted cats have run away.
They heard about the experiment and feared measuring up.
I guess you win, I tell the...

Ultimate Striped Tom CatThe striped Tom from the land of the river
Was hired by Channel Ten; the rule was, he’d better deliver.
In fog and sun, in heat that others could not abide.

He did the reporting of news every day.
He did not...

Striped Butterfly Glides BySoaking up the sun's rays this morning, loving my flowers in oranges and pinks, I look up as a striped butterfly glides around two bushes, and swirls around my chair, pirouetting prettily. She is not fearful in the least, possibly believing me to be...

Striped InfernoOrange and black, nature's warning sign
Muscle and grace intertwine
Prowling predator, jungle king
Silent steps, deadly swing
Eyes of amber, piercing gaze
Stalking through the misty haze
Whiskers twitch, sensing prey
In tall grass, the tigers lay
Roar echoes, primal sound
Shivers run, fear abound
Teeth like daggers, claws like knives
One swipe is all...

How he lays there with a slouch.
His blue-striped sweater
So warm and comfortable,
Any weather, good or bad....
