Bray Poems


Premium MemberWait Until Bray Comes

Wait until Bray comes, they warned me in a condescending way.
He will dive into the Christmas Tree from far, far away.
I thought it was silly of them and did a crazy sashay.
The next ting I knew, I was dive bombed by Elf Antics Bray.

Everybody Bray
David J Walker

Everything is see and say 
	Everything it green 
Everything is made of clay 
Every single scene 

Everyone I knew is blue
Everyone would pray
Everyone was once and done
Everybody bray

Premium MemberI Heard a Jackass Bray

Please consider the tone of your voice, I say
For I am not in the mood for ill-considered sarcasm,
For it’s been a while since I heard a jackass bray.

Words can slice through the heart, emotions flay
Send one’s warm feelings into a deep, dark chasm,
Please consider the tone of your voice, I say.

I suppose I might be more tolerant another day,
But in my present state of mind, I have no enthusiasm
For it’s been a while since I heard a jackass bray.

You say you merely tease, it’s just your way to play,
But the nastiness of your words provokes a spasm
Please consider the tone of your voice, I say.

No one likes their sunny day turned a gloomy gray
Or feel their self-worth is reduced to protoplasm,
For it’s been a while since I heard a jackass bray.

Would you like if I set about your nerves to fray?
And, then told you it was in your mind a phantasm
Please consider the tone of your voice, I say,
For it’s been a while since I heard a jackass bray!

Bray Tell

A burro that peons called, "Trump"
Was as stubborn as an oak stump
But still had the gall
To poop on a wall
That taxpayers built chump by chump!

Vicar of Bray

There was a dear Vicar of Bray,
Fell out of his pulpit one day.
Jumping up, said I’m fine,
Too much Communion wine,

That inebriated Vicar of Bray.

One For You Peter Bray

One for You Peter Bray

i have an old tape recorder
it is a friend of mine
it is half chrome
and
half
blue
a little rust
on the screws
it ain't worth a dime
but
it
plays back the
blues
from every car wreck
war
and
pawnshop
train
travels
at
night
thats
when
the music flows
and the chrome
glows.
