Best Up A Wall Poems
The Fall of a WallThe GDR put up a wall
in ‘61 because
they wanted West Berlin kept out.
A wall of shame it was!
In fact, the West more easily
could travel all about
while Eastern Germans were the ones
from freedom routes locked out.
The wall was guarded. Some were killed
while struggling to flee.

Franken DragonOn one dark and stormy night… on a local, lonely, wind swept moor,
A very young and slightly mad scientist did some craziness, for sure.
Now mind you, he was only 3 years young, but, yet, still a science nerd,
His binky and blankie well in hand, a...

Tropical ObsessionI've got a tropical obsession
I think I'm losing my mind
I want to see my work day done
Go out and have some fun
And leave the city life behind.
I love the roar of the ocean
The smell of tanning lotion
A secluded beach somewhere
There are coconuts in the trees
With...

Ballad
Trumpet Vines and HeatherHeather in a garden
Or heather in a store
Flowers beg a pardon,
Lovely forever more.
Vines climb up a wall,
Effortlessly tall
Vines climb up a gate,
Chopping is their fate.
Flowers and vines,
‘til the end of times.
Together forever
Trumpets and heather....

The SpaceshipSo I’m building a spaceship,
But where should I start?
When the spaceship I’m building
Is made out of art
Books for the seats
And paintings for the walls
Cause this type of spaceship
Goes nowhere at all
I do not want it to
Why should it go?
To travel to space,
Where...

Poemdog PoliticsWe are all aware of the season
Politicians give us good reason
To be happy we still have choices
And bark in our hunting dog voices
This year is like the rest
All from different nests
Somewhat similar attacks
Groupie pundits pushin' the pack
Donning my helpful glasses
Suddenly nothing but asses
In their...

Locked InsideI needed a way to release from inside,
All of the tears that I never cried,
My head was exploding from all I kept in,
While onto my face I glued a fake grin;
I hid inside my suspicion and fears,
And locked them away for many years;
They built up...

We In Deep TroubleI think we are in trouble
they are all in good spirits
something smells fishy to me
They smile and they tell you
they "will", fix it this time
give them your vote, and you'll see
Each one is claiming
they are without question
so far above all reproach
They wave their credentials
and...

Super HeroDon’t have a Mjölnir hammer
Like the mighty Thor
And I’m not bionic
Can’t break down a door
Can’t fly around the world
Like a superman
And couldn’t move to fast
Like the flash can
I’m not the human touch
Like the fantastic...

The Call of GodThe Call of God
One cannot truly understand why God
selects a person with whom His secrets He choose to confide,
and He living closer it seems to them
His presence in their life is found there to abide.
Does He select such a one by their beauty
their grace or...

Pucker UpWanna move up the ladder fast?
I'll tell you what to do;
Run to the boss's office,
And shine those dirty shoes!
Are your fingers stout enough,
To massage his smelly feet?
Clip those crusted toe nails,
Make sure they're nice and neat!
Hang around the time clock,
Snitch on those who's late;
Spend more...

Trespassers Will Be Prosecuted'Knock, knock' on the door,
But, I won't let you in.
No, no.
The chamber of my heart is closed.
But 'knock, knock' you say.
Oh no!
I am stronger in this position than any other.
A huge 'liquidation' sign hung,
For months and months,
At my window pane.
I gave away everything I had...

So I’m here with my son and his spouse
Sitting outback looking up to the sky
Hoping to see something go bye
Wishing for a sign to see
Something from my wife to me
