Best Zebras Poems

Ancient Arabians, mother to all
Bloodlines, essence of exquisiteness

Clydesdales, symmetry of strength
Dignity of duty, power of purpose

Ebony elegance, midnight silk
Friesians, crusaders in
Galloping gallantry

Hardy hearts, tiny and tenacious
Icelandic horses, gaited grace over
Jagged soil, volcanic climes

Kaleidoscope diamonds, lissome finesse
Lipizzaners, dancer of moonbeam dreams

Mustang beauty, bred by
Nature, to run...

Zebras

Zebras full of Zest and Zeal
Exquisite Stripes Dancing Happily
Black and White, Black and White
Running wildly as it turns into prey
Africa's Amazing Animal!...

Blue sky forms the fortress of their world

I can picture them- the ebony and white
velvet stripes, the arch of necks, the
flint-edged hooves
Beneath the weather-regimented trees
 they gather in the heat- to rest

Heat waves and the dreaded grunt of beasts of prey
then the  hegira, enmasse
following
the...

AL DE LA MY LOVE


You and I had everything calculated and planned
We were just following fate and its every command
Two souls were going to find forever in an unexpected land
And neither of us would dare to defy destiny’s demand

We were supposed to last a lifetime...

stripes snaking through verdent grasses
we follow along in a helicopter
appreciating that natives are free
like wild mustangs, enjoying their full power
not locked in zoos, separated by bars...

Hear the zebras roaring?
  In the forest shadows,
  Deep into the night.
  Dancing on black stripes,
  Across the moonlight.

  Little imps and urchins,
  Falling over roons.
  When the zebras are a roaring,
  They shake the mountains on...

THIS IS A sexth foot GRAVE  SITUTALTION
Velvet fell from the SKY ON a Boston day by the bay
Cotton caressed thy lips gentility so that you might sigh
While you tried to convince me you and I could beg to fly 
Suddenly uncertainty and fearfulness drew...

Zebras are striped
We all can agree
But the color of stripes
Is a mystery to me
Are they black
With stripes of white
Or white with black
Which one is right
As for me 
I just don’t care
But I know 
There are folks out there
Who label you 
As black or white
And judge...

Are zebras white with black stripes
Or are they black with white stripes
My mind's confused
Standing accused
Zebras await is it black or white stripes...

I was thinking about life the another day
And how we are made to live it day to day 
It seems that you don’t want to be
The one who stands out from the pack you see

Don’t be the best or nicest looking in the pack alone
So...

Blue

The color of the sky is blue. 
Sometimes it is bright,
and beautiful. 
It is light
and full of wonder. 
Sometimes is dark, 
and menacing. 

It is also deep...
like the ocean, 
full of stars, 
and angels 
that dance, 
to faraway music, 
that only they can hear. 

Blue...
