Best Yammering Poems
Shackling His TongueI am frustrated and annoyed by his ticking,
or perhaps it should be labeled the 'tocking'
By the never-ending tongue wagging clicking
in the language better known as 'clocking'
Must Grandfather Time command my life?
He so rudely continues without a thought
that his hammer yammering rhythm of strife
mocks the beating...

Preparing For the HolidaysChristmas eaves’ drop - red and green leaves of pre-December.
The snow-white clouds, the beard of Santa Claus’ pre-remember.
The elves are surely hammering
whilst Mrs. Claus is yammering.
The yawning of maples and oaks ‘fore their pre-sugar-plum dream.
Boughs with wrappings held high in the pre-burr of holiday theme.
The...

Cry BabyToddlers yammering
Grinding wild berries
Misty hopes dwindle
As the rays gray over
Another gaze through the dark
As stars dance round the moon
Boiling degrees melting the night
I wake up to life’s norm
Another day, counted blessing
Dourer than yesterday
Optimistic the Red Cross drives by
Or more graves we shall dig
Whom do I...

An Alliterative Abecedarian CompositionAbecedarian poems are also known as alphabetical sequential writings.
Being deviously different and difficult to
Compile, compose and complete. Consequentially combining
Determination and deviant, driven poets devote determined time, and
Exercise extreme etymological enthusiasm
For forging a fitting composition that
Guarantees generous grades, and gracious responses.
Hardly a...

The Strangling SeasonIn the strangling season
There are too many flowers to count.
My loves fall like petals against my ears.
All this undeserved yammering.
Showers of grace.
And here I kick empty buckets
Remembering what never was.
Age wears you like a coat.
It’s always heavier than you think.
So start moving. Be unbridled.
There is...

Quiet Hours
It’s so quiet now,
no more noise coming from upstairs
All of the background sounds
have faded into the mist
Radio silent dawn ... each morning —
once rambling chatter now only dead air
Audio spikes of serene quietude,
no more voices that are rude yammering late
Turn the open sign,
shut the...

Climate Health WorshipersI believe
multicultural vitality is better than monopolistic monoculturing boredom;
not just different, but the difference of climate health v pathology.
I believe
you believe this too.
Because if you did not
then you would probably not still be reading this.
We may also believe, then,
multicultural climate vitality
is better than monochromatic absence...

Competing VoicesWhen two or more Yang Dominants
are in the same room,
noticing each other,
it may be time to leave that room.
We have issues curtailing our co-arising competition
to reveal who can win
our CoElational Wealth Game.
All Yang-voices inside
and outside
clamoring EgoSapiens
hungry for EcoRights
optimizing Elational AnthroLight,
a smile of Namaste recognition,

Random BirthdayBaby born off of the bay
Inspiration is into the imagination
Right there ranting like red rovers
Tyrants topple from their towers
He hustles to have his hands hammering homes
Day when daisies drown in detergent; disgusting
And anyone able to achieve amazing accomplishments,
Yields the yellow yaks yammering about the yams.
Happy...

Soul Suckersouls sucker to make you beep,
dragged away from counting sheep,
shut up brain no not a peep,
the shadow talkers are sleeping,
voices coming greeting,
an imbecile retreating,
bugged brain is in denial,
ole solitude do smile,
the walls hold shades a weeping,
bugging out this bandy chile,
retreating from the meeting,
awhile...
why not...

Abecedarian AlliterationAn abecedarian Australian animal activist
Bagged bodacious big bucks
Caustically criticizing crocodiles,
Driving darling dragons
Essentially extinct. Eschewing
Fact, fabricating fanciful fiction,
Grifting gloriously,
He haughtily held hostage
Important, instructive information,
Juxtaposed jaundiced, junk
Kangaroo kills,
Leveling large lizard libel,
Manufacturing marsupial misinformation malevolently.
On other ominous occasions,
Preferring pernicious propaganda,
Quickly, querulously, quashed
Real, rational reports, rather,
Substituted several substantially
Tarnished technical...

The WoodpeckerRhythmic tapping outside my window
Bring E. A. Poe’s reflections to my mind,
Hammering an aggravating intrusion
The cause of which I must quickly find.
A red-headed woodpecker hammering
Oblivious to his naturally irksome task,
Worse than my turkey hens yammering
Hardly as deadly as the red death mask.
Poe found his intrusive...
