Best Witty Poems


Witty Darkness
Witty darkness spread her arms
talking in colored tongues
she opened her blanket wide
and covered everyone
warm, cool, calm, soothing
what a great feeling!

Her breath was life
even where light migrated
promises were prophetic
even if she was no prophet
deeds full of kindness
even if she was not an angel

But wind blew without...

Premium Member Nancy Kay Lee - Witty Epitaph
~Nancy Kay Lee~
(1712-1752)
Boston, Massachusetts 

Herein lies a lady by the name of Nancy Kay Lee
Who just climbed a very tall tree.
A twig caught up her dress 'round 
And she just fell all the way down.

Wee Witty Ditty
I once met an psychic Gypsy
Who warned me not to get tipsy
I always got drunk
But who would have thunk
I'd end up in Mrs. Shipsea*

Premium Member Witty Pun
Run with fine pun
Fun in the sun


Ploy works fond toy
Joy meets small boy


Know fun that shows
Grow where change flows


Spice up the nice
Dice that stray vice


Stake what you make
Shake out the fake


Dread halts the spread
Dead lines feel dead


Wit in sure bits
Fit in swift grit


Mine in odd...

Premium Member Cornelius Gus Huss - Witty Epitaph
Herein lies Cornelius Gus Huss 
Who wanted more muscles and then plus 
Til one day he had more of his "juice". 
It killed him when he combined it with booze!

Sir Calbot NewGate
(1214-1262)
Scotland


Here lies a cheater by the name of Sir Calbot NewGate.
He was caught cheating with a young maiden called Kate.
His mad wife just pushed him into a moat
And he drowned for being a nasty old goat.

Just a Witty Bitty, From One So Silly
My T.V. just left, said he was
Gonna go out and catch a real movie...
Those on T.V. stations have grown too trite,
My refrigerator told me,
He ain't letting me in no more...
At least till I drop 20...
I guess I'm a frightful sight...

Things are seemingly becoming,
So very, very...

Witty Lizard
Protruding eyes turn around; ball in socket.
It just jumped out of Dad’s coat pocket!
Visibly disturbed, it is not to lose its wit.
A new shelter it must find in grooves, sunlit.

Catch it! It fools us leaving its tail behind
to make a clean escape, leaving us blind.
Try...

Witty Paradox
Let's say we have capitulated 
yes, let's say we have succumbed
to their whimsical naivété and inane wisdom
Let us assume that it is all phoney
that it is a bogus hoax-filled folklore
We shall now pretend that we have been beguiled by such marvelous
exercise of ludicrous folly
Such bombardment...

Witty
Forbidden nectar taste so sweet 
She smiles as I play in her garden of eden 
Her lips pucker anxiously, but her face remains completely still 
Body grabs have escalated dramatically 
Slow and steady has transitioned into aggressively rapid 
She is the completion of a strenuous...

Paper Clips
Most people are easily bent out of shape
Like Paperclips
Because they can't hold it together
Like Paperclips
My words are weapons so I lock & load
My Paper Clips
I bet your two cents is worth less 
Than a Paperclip...

She's Pretty
I met a lovely lady and her name was Pretty, 
I wanted her badly so I had to be witty, 
She now resides in my mind, 
Our lives forever entwined, 
Now the song in my heart is this here little ditty....

Y'All Scream
I’ve never really needed ice cream,

just the mention and other’s eyes beam!

Ate a spoonful with such ease,

then my eyes bugged from brain freeze! 

I’d rather sit back and watch y’all scream!
