Carolyn Poems - Poems about Carolyn

Dennis and Carolyn

In a time when bell bottoms danced with the breeze,  
Two young hearts collided, as wild as the trees.  
In the glow of the disco, beneath starlit skies,  
They found in each other the spark of their lives.  

With laughter like music, they twirled through the night,  
In the warmth

Premium MemberSuper Confident Carolyn Lee

Carolyn Lee, a quirky artist, befriended me
She did everything with a bucket of glee
Best of all, her friendship was free
I learned a lot from Carolyn Lee.

She played art well, with a tee hee hee
Always laughing and beautifully
Other people’s criticism she did not hear or see
She was super confident, Carolyn Lee.

Why don’t you come paint with

Carolyn is a fabric artist, she has a rare gift
I watched her work, her fingers are swift
She was making a wild flower the other day
Colorful and pretty, it blew me away!

The patterns were beautiful, her machine was a buzz’n.
I am glad to let you know that she is my first cousin.

Premium MemberMy Lucky Twin Sister Carolyn

To say my twin sister Carolyn is lucky is an understatement.
She had a broken C-2 that had to be fixed.
Dr. Kawakaki from Iowa City put rods in her neck.
She had a physical occupational appointment yesterday.
Doctor read fifty-two pages on her before she arrived.
Doctor said “I know this might be morbid, but I have to tell

Premium MemberCarolyn, Mortified

Recipice Precipice
Carolyn Child would be
Mortified watching me
Cooking with joy and glee
Random ingredients
Thrown in a pot!

Hardly comestible
Near-indigestible
Never repeatable
Undefatigable
Principal requisite
Just make it hot!

Not a pure double dactyl, but in the spirit of one…

Julia Carolyn Child is the person, I pronounce Ju-li-a,
but the syllable counter pronounces Jul-ya,
so I went with her middle name.

Premium MemberA Highly Debated Issue - Carolyn Devonshire

A "Highly" Debated Issue


From glaucoma to chemotherapy
Medical marijuana has its place
But you won’t find any prescribed
In the conservative Sunshine State

Chris couldn’t eat while under treatment
Watched him lose one-hundred pounds
He had no access to an appetite stimulant
His weight was 85 when laid in the ground

Hefty Jen had lived a life of kindness
Taught spiritually uplifting courses
She suffered

 By candlelight, I write a letter to my sweetheart
 Without him, I feel powerless

Premium MemberFearlessness Revealed By Carolyn Devonshire

"Nothing to Fear" 

"We never know when death will come, 
so I cast my worries aside. 
When I first heard the news, 
my heart went numb, 
and then the diagnosis I denied. 

Finally acceptance came as I cried. 
Sands are pouring through the hourglass, 
but faith now saves me from fear. 
The beauty of heaven

Premium MemberWhy I Loved Carolyn Devonshire's Poem

Past-Life Nightmare
 

A child of four suffers recurring dreams,
disturbing parents and siblings with screams.
When she awoke, always sore in one knee;
next to a birthmark, it throbbed painfully.

Night after night she feared going to bed.
What caused these nightmares that raged in her head?
Even when grown, the torment persisted,
so a therapist's aid she enlisted.

"Hypnosis," said he, "might

Premium MemberWhy I Loved Carolyn Devonshires Poem - Midnights Miracle

 Horses and nature I have always reveled in;
when I read “Midnights Miracle”, I remember
feeling so sad in the beginning that this horse
could not be found.  I was certain that it was 
gone forever, never to return.

I read on feeling for the owners of this beautiful
black horse.  Elation set in, when I read

Why I Loved Carolyn Devonshire's Poem: See Me Now

See Me Now by Carolyn Devonshire

See me while my eyes are open
don’t delay until they close
sealing away my soul’s window

look within, see the love and joy I hold
capture this moment
remember me this way

when the light leads your eyes to heaven
think of me, smile sometimes
let laughter be my legacy

I cannot live today if you fear tomorrow

A Tribute To Carolyn

Hop scotch, skip a rope
Swings and slides she pass upon
A few bouncing balls here
A few there
Her field of dreams
Longed with poetry
From a page to a book
From words to a poem
The first ink lit her house
From top to bottom
From room to room
Her upstairs being her crux
So star bright, shiny and humble it was
In
