Best Trickle Poems
Trickle of Rain and SunshineWith droplets flip-flapping outside,
The gush of rainfall begins to chime
Unto the soft fragrance of moistened night...
And I tiptoe on naked earth
Savoring this minty nectar,
While a cadence from drizzles invites
My adult- being for a water-dance, a trance
Quite delightful in the cascade of...

Trickle Down AffectMother
You have hovered way to long
soured breath down my back
I forgave but
never was forgiven
for the late nights with Dad
sitting by his chair in the parlor,
you in your bedroom
eyes wide shut
Counting the seconds, the minutes
your iron fist at hand...

Never Force a Trickle,Wait For the ShowerBack from his five nights summer camp
I bombarded my son with questions
What did you eat, when did you sleep
What was the best part and such
He gave me bored couple words-
‘Okay’, ‘not much’, ‘Yeah’
And kept mum at some
I felt dejected, ignored and sad
But next...

Trickle-Down EconomicsNope, benefits for the wealthy does not
trickle down to middle-class
and the poor, that's nonsense.
Enriching captains of industry? Please.
What about the little guys?
They deserve a leg up!

Trickle DownYou and I
may not agree
nothing to say
never to see
Yet I'm fulfilled
within my realm
When you're near
I am overwhelmed
Best I leave
For a while
Until I return
Promise to smile...

Pickles Trickle To Tickle
My gal has a fetish for pickles
Down my back they sure do trickle
As she awaits them to roll
Always reaching their goal
It's more than the pickles that tickle...

TrickleLying still
Windswept
Held fast by the grime of years
The view never changes
Slowly you give to the wind and as the mountain of dirt succumbs
you drift without direction then stumble upon a friend
with minds alike you join forces to escape this filthy prison
running down, down ever faster...

Trickle Down HypocrisyTell me how does one fathom why poor fail to vote their own interests so much of the time?
That they somehow look up to those men having real wealth would seem to lack reason or rhyme.
But I wonder sometimes if it’s really an honor the...

The TrickleThe Trickle
by Odin Roark
But from a trickle
Streams of consciousness coalesce
Cascades enjoin seasoned rapids
Buffered by endless boundaries
Urged forward by more surging tributaries
Such adventurous energy
Wants only the oneness of here and now
The sustained awareness that perpetual peace is flux
A truth...

Trickle DownMy mind
Trickles down
A lonely page
Blank space remains
I stay
On the edge
Whispering
To the white
I wait
I pause
Thoughts unexpressed
Waiting
On the sideline
I wonder
Who will fill
My empty space
Is it waste
Is beauty
In a pause
Words not said
Never read
Held in mind
Three words confined
Dripped down page
Done
Trickle down free verse contest....

Black and White Trickle VerseYou are black
I am white
our color
is only
skin deep
If you are
wounded
you bleed red
as do I
If you bring
children into this
world you celebrate
as do I
When a loved
one
leaves this world
you mourn
as do I
For I know
as the end
of days...

A Trickle of BloodThat scarlet drop of a life still on my bayonet;
Lying lonely then in a six foot trench fox coffin,
Judgements of those at home not yet screaming in ears.
Shouldn't I have died to free them of guilt ridden freedom?
Only if they knew I had dreamed I...

Tears trickle down

I hope they

Cold rational cost/risk measurement —
Downsizing is the capital flow chart right way to go
Middle management under extreme personnel loss liquidity:
Short wigs facing contraction strategy harassment,
skirt the raised profit projected pressure of the actuary table
Lower management stem the tide of...

Trickle Down EconomicsTrickle Down Economics
By Franklin Price
6/10/2017
Trickle down economics has been around for quite awhile
Makes the rich so very happy doesn't make the middle smile
Puts the masses at the beck and call of the increasing super rich
They tout they did it by themselves that life is such...
