Best Swimsuits Poems


Premium Member By the Water's Edge
Sunscreen could not save our skin,
as dressed in skimpy swimsuits, 
we splished and splashed that afternoon,
so happily slapping the water of the sun-kissed glistening sea,
splattering each other with its salty taste.

Afterward, we swam out into the swell of its waves,
surrendering ourselves to the surges
of the...

    When I think back on the tattered pages of my life, I find so much sadness and
sorrow.  But there was a time way back when life was truly perfect, before Susan
was killed by a truck walking home from school one...

Premium Member King Sun
A very mighty king resides on high.
His face beams down upon us from the sky.

We praise him when he’s shining happily,
Reflecting in the azure of the sea.

King Sun, however, toys with us some days.
He hides behind the clouds to make a haze.

And other times he...

May's End
June is around the corner
and soon it will bring
the sound of the June bug
strumming it's wings.

The waters are warming and 
swimsuits are in.
A wonderful sunny season will
soon begin.

Watermelon freshly sliced
a wonderful gathering of friends.
Company is so very nice as we
welcome May's end....

Night Dawns

          The folding plastic chair creaked
           Fading  sunlight turned  bronze
He noticed

Seaside Memories
Modest swimsuits, bathing boxes
 White-blue flesh ice cold
Scratchy towels, sandy sandwiches
 Pots of tea being sold
Foxford blankets, picnic baskets – 
A donkey ride on the strand
Flowery summer frocks, mischief brimming 
 A practical joke being planned 

Hesitant breast strokes – high pitched laughter
 Terror, delight...

Skin I'M In Part One
Tough skinned -strong, take it and dish it out.  
Thin skinned - overly sensitive.  
Skin of our teeth -
struggle for life, survival. 
Skin defines and designs us, 
the skin we’re in, through pain, color issues, death and life.  

Skin-If skin could talk....

The Boardwalk

Whistles, jeers
Unrelenting young men
Ladies in swimsuits sigh while passing by

Screams from the Wild Mouse
Creaking ominously against summer skies
What happens if it fails to make that turn?

Spinning wheels, colorful trophies
“Step right up and try your luck!”
“Come on, Dad, it’s just a buck.”

Children’s laughter
Fun House draws...

On the Catwalk
In numerous locales countrywide, they hold sway
Pirouetting at intervals like ballerinas from Bolshoi
Beauteous, feline and very feminine
Slender to the point of emaciation, not quite
Cultivating the undernourished look on a frugal diet
Decidedly austere for a longer tenure in the limelight
Basking in the fleeting warmth of an...

Dominion of Canada
Canada goose

The Tin Bath Childhood Memory
..~~Childhood Memory~~..
None of us could swim, from the river we were banned
Not allowed near the water without an adult holding a hand
When the adults were busy we went to play
Of course to the river our thoughts oft did stray.

A tin bath we found much to...

The Bright Side
This onset of autumn’s first chill
Means swimsuits will no longer thrill.
But only a dope
Would snivel and mope,
For women have sweaters to fill!...

Waiting On October
when the sun finally shines its last hot beams of
annoying rays down upon the slimy suntan-lotion-saturated 
bodies &
the convertibles get taken back in the garages &
the vast groups of lame ass motorcyclists who drive only during
the summer months (gliding on their gross neon-colored crotch-rockets)
disappear &
the...

One On His Finger
One on his finger, one in his nose;
Crackers and honey, marsh mellow toes;
Voluptuous women, desire that grows;
And what is the problem, he’ll never know
        Seashell collectors, wadding through waves;
        Tight fitting...
