Best Tongue Poems
Silent Echoes of Her TongueIt's always those who reside in our hearts,
whose words, like lightning,
electrocute our soul,
and in each pain there is a lesson.
Her life was like a room without a view,
those 'rainy day' eyes,
could have formed a deep river,
but no ship sailed upon it,
to carry me to...

I study my tongue.
Much has been said
about the tongue yet
how has it pertained
to my own.
My tongue has delivered
and served, it...

Words Roll Off My TongueHow easily the words roll off my tongue
when decisions become too hard to make.
Even then, I only admit them to myself.
Sometimes I get confused, indecisive,
and hesitate in moments filled with doubt.
If only I had more confidence in myself
I would trust my voice not to...

Shackling His TongueI am frustrated and annoyed by his ticking,
or perhaps it should be labeled the 'tocking'
By the never-ending tongue wagging clicking
in the language better known as 'clocking'
Must Grandfather Time command my life?

that his hammer yammering rhythm of strife
mocks the beating...

The TongueIt slays without drawing a drop of blood
In an instant, turns reputations to mud
Its eloquence sets the innocent free
A serpent's weapon, resides in you and me

Tongue TwisterCome hither, Mister Delicious Sir.
Satiate my craving for saturating kisses.
Read these ready lips like romance fiction.
Practice your best parched desert depiction.
Slurp up this mist smorgasbord to savor
cherry chapstick and cinnamon disk's flavor.
Caress love's breath, pressed against companion lips.
Twist with saliva's textured slides and slips.
Play tongue...

Tongue Twister TimeWhat I know...I think
This is what I think I know or what I know I think
Dust upon a windy sky will cause my eyes to blink
Roads that lead to nowhere find there’s nowhere else to go
This is what I know I think or what I...

On a racehorse, don't fret.

A double that's for you.
It's a wager you should not ignore

Oh yes I had seen grass, but out on a footy ground
and my entertainment was drinking at a nightclub bar.
As a city bred young bloke I had never...

But he stubbed toe three in the trap in the tree,
Snip snap toe three was gone.

tried to trap a laughing leprechaun
with a black claw bear paw trap.
But soon...
