Homers Poems | Examples

No Guarantee

There is no guarantee
when it comes to the 
heart...

though love released with
sincere eternity – our carriers,
though Homers of loyal wings
transverse a sky of hawks

There is no guarantee
when it comes to matters
of interpersonal love – only God knows
man's truest beats – for the mortal heart
is an aggressor
while also retreats

Love, indeed!~ is a campaign of sorts

armies of feelings going forth

entrenchment on both sides

love often hides

while never a victory without
two fond surrenders

Time To Judge

When a record might be broken,
All the fans are on their toes.
Will it happen now or later?
Well, nobody really knows.

So the Yankees are expecting
Aaron Judge to do to the deed
If he hits just 2 more homers,
Which is never guaranteed.

Roger Maris holds that record;
Back in 1961
He surpassed Babe Ruth’s achievement,
Sixty homers, by just one.

Judge has 60 at the moment
And each time he’s up at bat,
There’s a buzz throughout the stadium,
Just waiting for that stat.

But the pressure is enormous;
So far Judge has not come through,
Yet all baseball fans are hoping
He will do what he must do.

Though the Yankees won, most watching
Would have sacrificed that win
To see Judge tie up the record
So the breaking can begin.

Fads Come and Fads Go

Fads come and fads go
Is this pronoun thing a ho ho ho?
I am sure for some it is important and real.
Others jump on, wanting more zip and zeal.

Tik Tok and U-tube, two of today’s norms
Taking new directions, creating new forms
Will they both be passé’ in the thirties?
Names going back to Homers and Gerties?

Database and web were unknown in the eighties.
Google was not a word known to us natives. 
Word processors barely peeking out.
LOL and MMAT make me want to shout!

The first computers took an entire room.
No one fathomed owning one.
Now we all talk away on Zoom.
High tech craziness. Oh what fun!

Things are moving at mega-super-speed.
People like Putin filled with incredible greed.
Sex traffickers are real and true.
I liked the old ways. How about you?

Who Am I

Who am I? 
A question with a purpose and so very deep,
One could go on and never touch bottom.
The search for the answer can be compared 
to that of Homers The Odyssey.
Its an outlandish adventure filled with Highs and Lows.
A mission that tests all that is human,
By end ones pride will be broken and rebuilt.
Who am I? is a lead question heavy and cruel to ask.
  Who are you? Who am i?
 Why, why, why, why.... WHY!
I'm yet to know, how do i know,
Did you know? Tell me who am I?
Cause i cant even begin to describe!

Baseball Will Be Back

Baseball will be back on the scene once more
For a 162 games, I'll watch all the scores
I root for the Blue Jays
My two arms I raise
As they belt out homers, and the crowd it does roar

A Walk-Off Homer

Walk-off homers are the thrill of the home team
They rejoice in jubilation, the whole team beams
Friends french kiss friends
Men kiss ugly men
Players touch each other in places unscene

Baseball's Little Guy

A little guy by baseball standards is garnering much praise
His name is Devon Travis of the Toronto Blue Jays
He's on a tear
Hits more than his share
Of doubles and homers, he continues to amaze

March Middleness

First half of the month cooler, then the second half warmer

Spring clocks turned forward, daylight lasting longer

Games of gold always told, losing harassed nine-fold

Allowed homers and walked batters that would be never

Scrimmage full of big time moments given, at the end guilt-ridden,

but rainy days getting more frequent leaving fields flooded.

Rainout, rain delay, games are stopped or canceled

deep into the night as fans sit in the grandstands

Agonizing for players and fans alike going home drenched

Despite the weather or the ups and downs of the sports

games will be played and fans will always spend watching their sporting events

Rowntree Park

ROWNTREE PARK

I have found green here
bordered by white lines
that meet then veer off
into infinity, perfect symmetry,
peppered by flashing yellow dandelions.
These, and more, colours
I have found here.
I have found dreams here
in the bats that sing for singles
and scream for homers,
in the cleats that pound
a rhythm as they slap the ground
with mercurial delight.
Oh, the sights and sounds
that I have found here.
I have found the cycles of life here
in the grass below and the sky above,
in the safe and the out,
I have found peace.
I have found youth here,
 for here I am not an old man
barely able to walk,
I am forever ten
as I round the bases and slide
headfirst into home,
the feel of dirt in my face
and the smell of death in the tag.

Summer Feaver

Baseball seasons here 
How many homers this year 
I drive fourwheeler all day 
I stay in the sun and bail hay 
Hope I get some money 
Then I'll buy some honey 
Sit at the fire all night 
hope mosqiutos don't bite.

     like every other ethnic group

Walk-Off Home Run

Ever since the game of baseball had begun,
nothing excites the fans like a walk-off home run.
In the ninth inning with a tie score,
hit a home run and you don’t have to play anymore.
Perhaps the bullpen did not save the game.
Having a tie score after the ninth is a shame.
This is a common thing that is hardly a quirk.
Extra innings to play means additional work.
If a home team player homers for the local crowd,
the fans with elation will cheer quite loud.
Inning after inning without runs brings frustration.
However, the home team scoring brings jubilation.
To be the team’s latest hero
is the greatest joy any player will ever know.

Zenball: a World of Homers

The clear zing into the air
As my thoughts depart from existence.
The little brain waves ramble along the bases.
Sick to the thought of motion my spirit hovers.
For I never left home plate.
I am everywhere all the time.

Coming Home

I have been gone for two years
Battling sickness, work, and tears

Now that I am home it is plain to see
This in now! Homers Oddessy

Old friends and family don't recognize me at all
Though I haven't changed or gotten tall

Some things have changed like things do
Most for better and worse too!
