Cole Poems - Poems about Cole

Icebergs floated all around me – frozen is no place to safely flee. I fell down on an ice crystal, then I heard you whistle and felt myself turn towards bold so I could leave this place so cold.

...or It's good to be the king! What was't made King Cole Such a merry old soul As he sucked on his pipe, And he supped from his bowl, And he fiddled around With three young court musicians? And what was the role Of his missus, Queen Cole? Was she under a table With a lad from the stable Who was told he'd be able To upgrade...

Cole hated rainy days. He looked out of his window. He watched the raindrops bounce off the ground. Through grey clouds, a beam of light touched his face. "Why are you hiding, Mr. Sun? Did you have a bad day today?" Mr. Sun frowned and hid his face. The clouds yelled at Cole. "Why do...

Personal Nat King Cole Inspired Tears streaming, come to life, from these brown eyes, eyes that have been as dry as a popcorn fart, out in the middle of some desert and as dead as road kill on the Q.
