Best Wheezing Poems


Premium Member Wisdom From the Wheezing Woods

Listen to the wisdom, oozing from the wheezing  woods, 
Whimpering in euphony, far from the bustling boulevards,
Crooning, mumbling mellow chirping soothing strains. 
The warbling of the warbles, buzzing of the bumblebees, fetching sputtering riddles! 

Listen to the cryptic hooting, hissing, howling of the forest critters, 
The whooshing weald is whistling, winking, whooping as living being! 
Twittering its' silent sagacious saga when the ringing roots are entwining, 
Gusting, the swooshing symphony of the smashing symbiosis. 

The seeds are throbbing spasmodically into mature trees;
Sheltering the myriads of native wild species. 
The wild blooms in seclusion are trilling in the tranquil breeze, 
Twiddling and twirling in oblivion, invigorating the dying dandelions. 

There is no hubbub; discrimination, feeble and strong, old and new, 
Even cheeping competing species  sloshing in consonance are clinking in gleeful communion!
 
The flapping, fluttering forest is clicking, caressing each other, 
To enliven, the stup of the felled trees for hundred of years. 

The mother trees are murmuring the lulling lullabies, nurturing their saplings. 
They know not, the survival of the fittest, the gluttony! 
In the thicket, there is no cacophony, but mere 
Mellifluous  rumbling of  dribbling polyphony!

Their fists were of furious intent,
But backs were too aged and bent.
It wasn't the seizing,
But rather the wheezing,
That both to the hospital sent.


Premium Member Asthma Wheezing Kept Me Alive Today

My asthma wheezing has kept me home today.
Saving my life no doubt, in a most wonderful way.
Winter advisory is on her way to dance and play.
No one who wants to live should be out today.

One of my inhalers is at school, but not a worry.
The birds and the squirrels are all a flurry.
There are things to cook with spice of curry.
But no time to waste, fret, worst of all worry.

My asthma wheezing has kept me home today.
Out of the traffic, so dark and mean, in every way.
I have a glass door, so hip hip hooray, like a play…
I am watching the fastest snowfall I have ever seen.
My asthma wheezing has kept me safe today.

10-6-2025 Side: B

Sneezing again,
Somewhat lost control over me.
Again.
And now the seasons changed,
Summer’s walking out on me. 
Again.
The nicotine chain, 
Forcing down another twenty.
Again.
Wheezing refrain,
I feel the rain pouring down on me. 
Yet again.
Reminisce again of the roof above, 
Something that once held over me. 
But the sky now drops tears, 
Joyless tears, 
Again.

Love washed over me. 
Again.

Pointlessly in love, 
Your eyes never hold on to me. 
I’m just pointlessly in love, 
Washing my memories with golden relief. 
The gold shines above, 
The sky sing songs bittersweet melodies.
Now,
Again.
