Best Unconventional Poems
Do the UnconventionalTrapped behind a desk, first at school, then at work
Why on earth are folks such awful jerks
If we didn't like school, why continue to suffer
Just because some boss made a great offer?

Unconventional LoversPillows and blankets
Shaped in a 'V',
Bottles and pills
In a wrapper-filled sea.
Drool on our faces
Clothes on the ceiling.
These are the nights
My heart is healing.
My head on your feet
Your toes in my hair,
A repulsive aroma
Sweetens the air.
It's the puddle of glop
Is that yours or mine?
It doesn't matter
We'll...

Unconventional WarfareA convention of unconventional warfare
It’s the Olympics of BS, the mind boggles
Unrelenting coverage; I try not to stare
Through my thick, round minion goggles
Slogans chanted numbly trump reality
Still, there are three sides to every story
Windmills fall; eclipse goes to totality
Attention shoppers, Kool-Aid spill on aisle three
I’m...

Unconventional RoyaltyCanine the king and Feline the queen
Were not quite birds of a feather
In fact they fought like cats and dogs
When they were reigning together!
One dark night Feline ran away
Canine was real mad about that
He caught up to her the next day
They all said, “He's quick...

Unconventional War......Demi-gods,directives in whispers
pact made in secrecy,done indiscreetly
Originally defiled,by those whom beguiled
enslave those of light,to serve their might
Brood of the past in constant war
mandated slaughter of each,'till no more
Nature of nature in opposition
each in force gaining position..............

Unconventional BrideFrom a distance, she sees
the groom in sweat;
moist with tears,
his lips tremble.
At the pace of voices,
she marches;
line of gazes: her path.
The contrast of white
against red;
petals are swept
by her trail.
Behind the lace
she gets a glimpse
of tomorrow
and yesterday.
She kisses her mother, who smiles;
as well as her...

Unconventional LoveYou say you love me and yet
I feel you hardly know me
I say I love you and yet
I feel an aching emptiness within
and fail to have a sense of ‘we’
It’s curious and odd to think we are in love
when we have no clue where this...

An Unconventional MarriageJan and Nan were not just twins but best friends,
so when Stan got down on one knee, he got
not one, but two, to say “I do.” Some thought
him blessed; some found it strange, but Stan thought he
got a good deal: two for the price of...

Unconventional Godthe One Omnipotent God
does unconventional things
and many out there agree
until they find out that it means
His ways are passed finding out
but if we will simply obey
the world will see what God does
and hear what God has to say
{Bridge}
So who directs God's Spirit to do as...

UnconventionalUnconventional is how we first met,
Unconventional is what we are.
Walls were surrounding me, yet
You still tried to crash them.
Brute force was your might,
While quiet reserve was mine,
For some reason I was in your sight,
You resolved to make me yours.
Unconventional was what you tried,
Unconventional was just...

An Unconventional ValentineLet me contrast you with a rose in bloom
Whose unfurled buds exude a sweet perfume.
Eternal token of romantic zeal
On lease from heaven with a loving seal.
You, in comparison, with beard untrimmed,
Complexion florid and your vision dimmed,
Have no external beauty to extol;
Possession of long life must...

Unconventional LoveIt was a Bikers wedding.
All the Chapter were there
In brightly coloured leathers
And freshly washed hair.
They escorted them off
To the start of their new life
As Mister and Mrs,
Husband and wife.
They looked forward to consumation
With such anticipation and delight,
They thrilled and pleased each other
Through...
