Best Thousands Poems

Thousands living in fear
For they knew Hitler was growing near
In Poland her career would soon to be
As she helped scared persecuted to flee

Gas chambers were yet to come
For not all heeded the warnings of this young one
Compassion and determination
Made her the first in reporting the...

hard winter, blackbirds frozen
moccasins left there

Hold your breath
Not a touch of death
Go above the atmosphere…
Embrace the rainclouds that sponge in fear
Tell them that there’s a hopeful Utopia that lies ahead
Wipe away their tears of dread 
Put all of your doubts to bed
Walk into the orchards of thousands of trees
Scan the...

Hey Mr. President Obama, it's time to wake up from your loooooong

Can't you see
That I'm dying inside?
I know you think
This love wasn't meant for you and I
I wish you could love me
Like the way I love thee
I want you back
There's a crack
In my heart
I wish you could glue
The pieces back
Even though you were
Thousands of miles away
You...

but by then
it was too
late
many shook
radios
slapped
the sides of
t.v. sets

the sneeze
of extinction
that

I cried harder than I ever have.
And then -
I never cried again,
Because after counting every tear,
To measure their worth,

a thousand times:

to devilish emotions! 

They have taught us
not to be fooled
by deceiving words,

The peace they display is a ripe fruit from thousands of battles,
They walk among us, in a silence that intrigues and soothes,
We think they have always been this way, under a benevolent star,
But this peace vibrates like metal hammered a thousand times,
It resonates with the...

This is about Lenny and Jenny,
Whose love had begun with no Penny
But Jenny's songs all about Lenny,
Thousands ready to swear 'uncanny',
Not excluded Miss Jenny's Granny,
Who had told Jenny about Danny,
His Gold in all the nooks and cranny:
"Leaving it for just Lenny Funny!"

"My Smarter Grand Daughter...
