Best The Americas Poems


Premium Member Middle-Belt Star In the Americas
A stop route of west African slave trade
passing through gradual conversion from an escape center
to a beautiful republic cemented in the ninety-sixties,
to pride as the first nation in the middle of the Americas
and to become an independent political and economic entity.

The first among the ‘warm-climated’...

Americas Greatness
America’s greatness is not marble or stone
But the soldier who’s willing to stand all alone
Out on their post with weapon in hand
Protecting the people of this great land

America’s greatness wears Army Green
Or the clothes of a sailor, Air Force or Marine
Their background is Asian, Hispanic...

Premium Member Americas New President Jr Biden
Have been following CNN avidly, 
Learnt a great deal about American politics
Your Ex -President, an arrogant man to his core,
As opposed to a dedicated, humble, proud,
Soul searching man, President Joseph
Robinette Biden Jr. a Vice President before,
During President Obama’s Administration.
He has gone through so much grief,
Wife,...

Premium Member North Americas Southern Trees
Deep in the south, lives the Southern Pine.
I love the fresh pine scent, it’s really quite divine.
The palms adorn the water’s edge, such sturdy summer trees.
As they grow, they will bend and shape up in the breeze.


The Magnolia has a lovely flower; its scent is,...

Americas Villain
Low flying plane
Cloudless sky, bright blue
Steel clashing, burning orange
Cloudless no more, smoke fills the sky
Thick, gray, rolls through the city
Much more than a tragedy
3,000 deaths
Millions affected
Billions left with a dark memory seared in their minds
By the hands of one, and
A search begins
War, oil, money
What are...

Premium Member Americas Round Table
América's Roundtable,  
Kings and Knights of a fable,
Broadening the smorgasbord of a playing field,  

Swelling midriffs peak, 
they drool as they speak, 
for the empires for themselves that they build.

The fine lady now fattened,
America's breast now flattened,
and they ravished her while singing her...

Premium Member Captain Americas Shield
Captain America’s Shield

A shield of a brave imaginary hero
With lots of symbolism to show
Bearing some signs from state’s flag
For patriotism and loyalty hug

Shape is always round
Resilience from all battle-wounds
Armor made from the strongest metal
Super shiny, a bulletproof material

Center is a state’s big silver-star
Surrounded by lines...

Americas Dream
A demonstration,
Of black and white,
Showing through as a beacon of light.
I have a dream, 
Four words
With a meaning so big,
Thats more difficult to understand than anything.
Forty-seven years have passed.
Really? are we this self-centered?
America as a whole, we could do better....

Forbiden Fruit/Americas Favorite Pass Time
"Forbidden Fruit"

Sometimes tangy, more often sweet. Grown in trees, Natures treat. Some are yellow, others 
red. One once fell on Newtons head. Great in salad, a delight in pie. Why you could be one of 
my eye. Eaten by the bushel or eaten loose. A...

Americas Heart Torn Apart
Sitting here with a deep dark stare
Looking out into space in my underwear
Trying to get to my happy place 
Listening to my heart race
As I keep pace with all of God's grace
Many would make a good case
We see it more face to face
Life changing all...

Americas Unfinished Business
The woke demand that we devenerate,
revise old statues, plaques and history
of leaders who were once considered great,
as truth confronts a lasting bigotry.

To laud and honor what they represent
supports and propagates a curse and weight,
creating new and growing discontent,
to abrogate old hails to racial hate.

Blind scales...

Americas Heart
you may think you have won,
but it has only just begun,
America's heart is at stake,
but we will survive and we will grow in faith,
this heart is not only one,
but it is the core of our love,
with every step we take,
with every choice we make,
America's heart...

Happy Birthday USA
But the short and long of it
Political correctness, sungay- pungay -
America for short, United States in it
"Norte Americanos", or US citizens
Celebrate on July 4th
And I have lived & lived that too
God bless America! Amen

II
And God Bless AMERICAS, South too!
There is colonialism in language
We...

Hope In Asking Unpopular Questions
 Unasked questions hide truths from you
Asking them offers hope
Why did the East long shun Europe
Until post - '92 [1492]...
