Best Zing Poems

Lima describe how yours truly went Peru zing...

thru truckloads of his personal communiqués broadcast
(methinks quite some years ago) across world wide web,
but now still smarting from selfishness, I feel quite aghast.

Yes practically every word
needs be overwritten with bleep,
nevertheless, an intimation doth arise
regarding me-an utter creep,
whose...

Absinthe makes the heart grow fonder,
But Whiskey makes you frisky.
Clerihews and epigrams are fine but
Do not tell these to one lost in love
Except when you mean to cheer up one
Fevered with temporary  amourous setbacks.
Gift them the gift prized by one and all
Humour - evoking...

Love is a many splendored thing
It's the meaning of life, it makes our hearts sing
Without it we're lost
As our ship gets tossed
Till that person appears and you feel that zing

We're aware of our oncoming summer fling
With sunshine galore
Happiness to the core
The best time of year, we can feel life's zing...

**** lies zing constipation
     nothing to poo poo about,
cuz when bedeviled by
     colorectal obstruction 
     without wasted doubt,
that malodorous,

     analogous to uranus

Yesterday, on the first warm day of Spring,
I heard a robin redbreast sweetly sing.
And it was a melody on the wing,
a beautiful, magical sort of thing.

Although Winter's hold continues to cling,
its effects are slowly on the downswing.
And I know that April showers will bring
magnificent flowers...

more often than not, a knightly surge
     combs a pawn me,
     especially after the stroke of midnight, when
hermetically sealed in my rookery,

     where bats in the belfry
     flap their...

Old familiar tune of Happy Birthday, 
Along its line I fell in love with May. 

As long as I remember from the start, 
It etched for good into my childhood heart. 

On the same date as years sprinting along, 
Birds orchestrate my birthday with a...

Just think, pops
     With your voice
   You could have been
     such a lounge lizard...

   With your eye for talent, son
     You may yet find your calling

Perhaps if I take a nap, when I wake it'll be spring
At this point in our Canadian winter I'll try anything
Have had it up to here
Where the sun don't appear
The warmest part of my bod where I still got some zing ...

I called a Mommy the other day.
With her 7-year-old son’s permission.
I always ask the student first,
Not wanting to violate their trust.
“I’m afraid,” he told me. “You do it.”
The minute he went back to class
I called his Mommy.
She answered on the eighth ring.
I could hear, Zing....

The awful gift was given to us in front of a bunch.
I saw my wife and her mother grimace, so I had a hunch
They were not totally in love with this ugly bugly offering.
But it came from my favorite Aunt, we call her Aunt Zing.

In my flower garden everyday,
Sun verily shines it's bright rays.
I dance, I sing!
I add some zing.
To the jaded flowers, what say?

We love those church bells,
do we not? Such chimes, such rings!
Are you a churchy type?
Or, like me, are you not?

Those bells we hear here
do have a rather angelic sound
(though, as we know, there are no angels).
But what a voice they have, those bells.

You don't do...
