Bonny Poems - Poems about Bonny

May I take your hand My pretty one And walk with you Towards the setting sun? We'll disappear Into its charm And stroll together Arm in arm And if perchance We were to kiss All other senses Would dismiss Their presence From my current view My only focus Would be on you...

My bonny blooms, grew up to the housetop. When I watered them daily, they grew nonstop! They rose very fast, for they love orange sun, So red, gold and pink, and loved by everyone! The birds sit high singing, thinking they are trees, Bouncing on my bonny blooms, in a warm breeze. Purple butterflies fly higher, just to see them all. My...

Anne Bonny- Pirate Anne Bonny preferred the pirate’s life She turned her back on being a wife And cleverly hid her womanhood In buccaneer’s guise ignoring all good She sailed the seas as gallantly as the rest Sadistic and callous, she couldn’t care less She swore and drank with the rest of the crew Matching strength and skill with energy anew One day...

Bonny Island You, who are drunk on the palm wine of the mighty Atlantic’s eternal fatuity laugh and make vain in perpetuity her attempts to blot you out of sight Daily taunt the thundering waves whose fury rises several storeys high but succumb with a crash at your feet returning fully spent and shamefaced! Whose palms grow into the heavens and bow to the earth...

Bonny by boat The skater did at the break of dawn Commence her rhythm-less glide Down her south-easterly meandering rink- Not on ice; cold and hard, But, on a brackish, salty, watery waste Eyeless spectators flanked the course Blindly staring on in silent cheer Waving their branches and their leaves Side to side and back and forth; Rhythmic dance to the whims of the wind Minutes,...

I walked the roads, both low and high, In search of where my bonny lie, And when I found her, I did cry, My bonny love, I know her spirit's in the sky, Far up above. She's freed from all her earthly woe, As in the ground she's laid below, Where fields of purple heather grow, My bonny dear, I hear her voice, as breezes...

She wore a tartan bonnet upon her flame red locks, Around her waist she wore a kilt For her no fancy frocks. She puts fire in my veins, I love her so, I do. Oh my bonny, bonny lass My heart I give to you. I'll love you forever, Aye, my lass I will And should I live a thousand years, I shall love...

Until I've seen, Melbourne days was not just emptiness in play I know I'll see What I didn't see, the September soaked symphony of Vivaldi vines climbing, jacaranda booms, tremolo spilling eaves Until you know this suburban kid's righted the wrong I'll verse on my way, you as the bridges in my song Making choruses of dreams that could soon belong And urban princes and their...

My tour made me really content I was pleased with where I was being sent The Air Force said go I couldn't say no so over to Scotland I went. The tour could not have been better I knew SHE was the one when I...

A sparkling jewel Of nature It brings peace To my soul Fills the Empty hole Slows down My heartbeat Stops the retreat And rebuilds Refills My heart With wonder With hope With silence. Pained As I am By my past The re-casting Of my being The removal Of my all-seeing Alter-ego Is a certainty When on the boat To Lerwick With waves Licking The sides And the rhythm Of the slow Humming Engine Slowing my rhythm Sending Me to sleep. Gets me Dreaming of The glistening sea This wondrous Place This hidden Space Where few Do tread And the...

Through shadowed forest glade she rode 'Midst grey and gloomy chill No single thought of safety did A moment stay her will The mist clung to her nostrils as She charged into the brush The creatures of the forest paused In terrifying hush Foreboding seeped into her bones Ghastly, from ages spent Urging her mount to breakneck speed Resolve would not relent To slow would mean downfall...
