In Short Poems - Poems about In Short

I've loved half-faded flowers on the better side of the road and left my smile surrendered in the heart of an untouched daisy I've stared at the honey-moon felt liquid stars drip their dreams into the pupil of my eyes and melted like lemon drops of sunlight I've known love to burn inside the glow of my wild fire and slowly drown deeper into...

What truly sets my quill to grin? A limerick with an end spin! I rhyme by couplets, A and A, Two lines’ integral interplay. One finished thought, One moral taught, With the fifth line - a final say! I like it plain, And concrete, Good old quatrain - Short and sweet. ...

Have you ever felt not wanting anything new, coz' the flashback of old memories gives a lot of pleasure to you, that pleasure is incomparable to what you see in front of you, The place where you once were is now filled with many like you.

Joan’s spouse requests surf and turf. Bob’s stature and beard - a smurf. In short, she plays cute, Puts on a wet suit. She climbs iron board to surf. Bob tells her to get on down. His ask, does not make her frown. She winks as he guides And rolls with the tides. She’s hot off the plate, his clown. 7/16/2022 Limerick Contest Sponsor: Lisa YY...

I've come to old man Berber who's grey-haired and skinny To solve problems that I'm tortured with. "I see, my son, that through you beams hot light as you breathe But you are not his owner, silly. Dread muddy waters and medals for your own labor, Guard the dragon, dove and rose flower. You see, all these people around you... how...

It's been a good run To the back side of sixty, The short side of time. First Hollywood kiss Behind a pink crepe myrtle. Thanks, Patsy Werner. High school was okay. Didn't help me to focus; So, my mind wandered. Surfed Bonzai Pipeline, Big waves break into lava. What made me do it? Vietnam jungles. I wondered why I was there. America lost. Smoking pot. Stereo. Good fun in the seventies. Psychedelics...
