Bursting Poems | Examples

Bursting Open

The green plasma blasting out the moon
made to look like a thick smoke plume
interference with this satellite called moon
something huge incredible will show soon

It reminds me of birds trapped in a zoo
wide and high to keep caged a slew
seem as an experiment term is at the end
we have to be released from this iron pen

Satellites everywhere we seem to be
watching all; there's no where to flee
Studied for reasons that's so weird
recording what keep us too feared

Noticing the many fights in the sky
help is seen with a clear keen eye
They're here to help us all out
illusions spewed to bring us doubt

Those whose here to ground in the light
hold on, this has been a long tired fight
darkness need to be balanced out
it has overrun, but now it's caught

EARTH needs you to balance you
if you don't we continue in a coup
fear not we're upon a great change,
although things look very strange.

Premium MemberBursting The Bubbles


When after the sunrise traffic begins to roll
in the morning, Mary goes out for a stroll.

From soap water can someone she doesn’t see,
blows large bubbles that glide her past with glee.

The morning sun glistens on her blonde hair,
flashes colors on the bubbles flying in the air.

She sees them as soaring big pearls that glow,
but she knows inside they are all hollow.

The bubbles waft toward the blue sky,
until they couldn’t float up much high.

Winding slowly in cluster they come down
to touch softly her side-turned tilted crown.

Her fingers silently burst the bubbles one by one,
the sprinkle of delight she senses with great fun.

PAINS OF LOVE

She was my best friend a forever companion
We were so close and compassionate in dealings
Travelling, laughing creating beautiful memories 
Promising each other forever without apartheid
Love was so strong and edifying without dispute
Always laughing, kissing and caressing all day
Without hesitating before love making and more.


Woke up one morning without my lover by my side
Waiting and hoping she went to fetch something
Never knew I have been blackmail to her via text
It's a text from my ex lover wanting to reunite 
Wanting to ignite the love she was unable to build
vulnerable without location knowing her whereabouts
I ponder and wonder over where and how to find her. 



This feelings bursting my brain causing migraine 
making me want to migrate from here to Madrid
In search for her, for that's where I find her
Now I am winning and dinning with aches of pains
Drinking and smoking sobering in solitude panting
Breathing heavily my heart beats in search of her
Presence but it was absence the rhythm of my heart.

   Balloons fill with helium, soar in the sky

   What strange gases burst politicians’ bellies

     ~ Perhaps Saturn will see them fly by

Premium MemberBursting At The Seams


A cute little French girl named Francine
Had young garçons bursting at their seams
Agitated is the word
As their hormones did surge
Were heard letting out muffled screams

Premium MemberThe Days Come Warmer

The Days Come, Warmer

Time has ammassed the many aspects of me,
Which I then collect, design and tatt 
Into delicate lace edgings for my aging, and which I then
Lay out into rings around  the bases of tree trunks
To become splendor again, anew across the landscape
 —  with the fragrance of lilies — orange, yellow, purple —
Bursting their blooms through the darkened earth
Beside the already  growing roses, asters, peonies and hostas —
To celebrate meeting a new season of warmth in the forest;
Awaiting evensong, to grace this day’s ending work and memories
With the birds flocking, circling, singing out overhead
From here to the horison’s moonrise.

Straddling fire, he rode bursting through space,
fearless trust wearing an astronaut's face.

Bursting Into Flowers

Upon rockets they'd been launched into the night sky
Each of them more beautiful than the ones before
Exploding in bright array, resounding on high
Despite the scent of acrid smoke, crowds shouted, "More!"

Each of them more beautiful than the ones before
Bursting into life like newly blossomed flowers
Despite the scent of acrid smoke, crowds shouted, "More!"
Like tossed petals they fell in prismatic showers

Bursting into life like newly blossomed flowers
Exploding in bright array, resounding on high
Like tossed petals they fell in prismatic showers
Upon rockets they'd been launched into the night sky

Bursting Busty Bruise

waning wits smirked
vying voluptuous verge
meagre mood metamorphose
saucy spell's sauce
hoisted hankerings hummed
pruning punctured pukes

dark dribbles dazed
rusty reels raved
rusticating riff's creates

lanky lusts birthed
callous crisps cremated
crunched crescendos hibernated

crumbling contractions cruised
bursting busty bruise.

Hugs Are Squeezed To Contain Bursting Joy

SOME thoughts are daggers
as others are kisses
while hugs are squeezed
to contain BURSTING
joy; ...my privately confessed 
delusions -->.  God pleasure return
my m i n d \.  THESE pesterous
Cherubs sending L oVE 
air mailed / i delightfully collect
their stamps for the golden saliva
by cherubic artist can visit me
post return of my comatic brain.

Premium MemberBursting With Pride

So proud of my son now, just bursting with pride
   though there were times, I admit, I was worried inside
   
In pre-induction training to defend the Jewish State
   surrounded by sworn enemies loaded with hate

With the guts to do what he truly believes in
   my youngest son's photos display a wide grin

He knows the Israeli Army's no walk in the park
   Losing even one war means the state goes dark

Yet the esprit de corps in his army's unmatched
   May God see him through his service unscratched
