Best Thicker Poems

Blood is thicker than water (farewell)

Burdened and scarred by DNA
Passed on to us without our say yet
Blood is thicker than water you say?
Characteristically speaking at least 
Yes this much is true

Blood coagulates, dries up at such a rate
Impermanent - given certain conditions -  
As...

My childhood friend, my blood brother
We did a lot of fun things together
Playing carom, table tennis and skating
You were the dull school boy
My eyes were always pained 
To see you struggle through school
The painting on the wall of the little boy in tears
Always reminded me...

In the summer of 1949, I lay in the grass in "Grannys"  back yard picking clovers with 8 year 
old Ada Bee, my black and only friend.  Ada Bee had six fingers on her left hand and picking 
Clovers meant that I could...

I noticed that You left me with nothing to lose
These scars bleed and I’m a dried-up seed
Heal my heartache and tear apart the bad news
Oh Lord, I’m sorry for being full of greed
Wintertime has swept against my skin…
I shutter…shocked by the coldness…
Please forgive me for...

THOUGHTS AND FEELINGS COME OUT TO PLAY
NONE In DISARRAY
WHEN FAMILY ABANDONS YOU
AFTER SOME TIME, IT BECOMES REAL, TRUE
SO MUCH PAIN BECAUSE BLOOD SHOULD BE THICKER THAN WATER
OH HOW I THANK GOD FOR MY WONDERFUL DAUGHTER
SO MUCH JEALOUSY FOR SACRIFICES I MADE
WHILE THEY ARE STUCK IN...

"Thicker Than Water"
by:  Eric L. Boddie

Once again, we are here
Regardless of the place, Love remains sincere
I can't think of another group I'd rather be near
Just being close to you all gives me reason to cheer
Because in my heart, it is oh so clear
That each...

Tend those sad blue eyes 
To cry drops but of honey 
Tears flow much slower 
Down her soft caramel neck 
Queen bees silently agree...

Blood is thicker than water,
So the saying goes,
But sometimes blood can be,
The source of our woes.

Family ties run deep,
Bound by love and history,
We laugh and we weep,
And share in each other's victories.

But blood can also bring pain,
When family turns against their own,
Betrayal and anger reign,
And...

I thought blood was no longer thiker than water.
But that's not the matter.
Even that who calls you honey,
Will run away when you have no money.

Listen to me yee!
Not in anyway  will I mislead thee.
Build a rapport.
Your kins need your report.

Let your mother be your...

Threw thick and thin
Threw right and wrong 
Threw the rain and the storm
Threw the years 
You held me down 
You always have my back 
You lend your ear’s to listen 
The voice of good advice 
The arm’s that in brace 
When time’s are hard in...

My nurse got in touch
I did not expect much
from my medical results she had seen,
but on one thing I failed,
Cholesterol off the scale
which was bad news for little old me.
She just sat there quiet,
I reeled off my diet,
red meat, lots of eggs,dairy stuff,
not much veg...

I pushed at the open door, no sound
just darkness inside. Dust filtered my
nostrils, a mustiness of lost years
inhabited my senses. A loose floorboard
creaked in the stairwell, the aroma 
of her Chanel provoked memories of my
living hell. A tear of self-pity congealed
in the dirt at my...

How does it feel to succumb to the pain I've endured?
Your blood runs thicker than the dirtiest water.
This hate for you cannot be cured.
No one can save you, not even Our God, your true father.
How does it feel to fall onto the same blade you...
