Kelly Poems - Poems about Kelly

Kibitzer Kelly

Kibitzer Kelly is in everybody’s biz
She adds details, hoping for some extra fizz
Likes to spy on her neighbors all day long
Takes detailed notes, her observations strong
Writes down license plates of cars every hour
Snooping and spying is her superpower

Kelly and her Neighbors

Kelly cannot get along with her new neighbors
Their tree limbs fall on her fence
They say they want to poison mice
They park their car too close to her property
They plant flowers she does not like to smell
None of the other neighbors like them either, Kelly says.
She sounds like a thirteen-year-old when she says this.
The other neighbors

A Tale of Kunta Kelly Image

What a precious, dear boy, you were.
Caressing me with your long, red fur.
I found you lost, on a San Francisco street.
Into my arms you came, the sweetest treat.

Years have flown by since my life you left.
My heart, you took, upon your quick death.
Bright as the sunrise, you shared my days! 
In starlight I see you,

2 Lunes

1. Kelly Lune:
silk rose under dome
opaque glass
thwarted love preserved


2. Jack Collom Lune:
the faded corsage
under a dusty glass dome—
missed spring ball

Hark Ellie

R. Kelly did meet Lucy Furr
But - dang it all - she did not purr!
He sang, "Bum Rap"
But that was crap
Because his peers would not concur

Kelly Wasn'T As Pretty As Sally

Sally wasn't as pretty as Kelly,
they had two different personalities;
one was hard to love, the other was
gentle and surrendered easily.  

I shared the love of two girls
who battled to have me desperately;
they fought and pulled their hair,
showing endless rage and jealousy...
they couldn't put an end to their animosity! 
I was torn between the two

Sean Kelly a Poets Poet 2

In Praise Of Friends.
The quiet one , who is always there .
Whose trust is real, and who'll always share
That secret deep within your inner soul .
No loyalty emblem will he wear .
But in silence lift the pain and dare
To cure the aches and ills your wrongs extol .

No ransom, or obscene demand ;
For loyalty is

Kelly and the Telly

Written by Gail DeBole on March 16, 2020

There once was a kitty named Kelly 
Who watched his shows on the telly. 
When someone massaged his ears 
Kelly’s purr became clear 
And he became one cheerful felly.

I'M Gene Kelly Again

Spending today 
whilst wiling away 
   
   each hour 
      
      each minute 
         
         each second

Pottering about
doing nought

I am feeling 
relaxed as can be

For

note in a song
that allows
me to sing

in the
rain while

dancing

Ned Kelly

Ned Kelly

Ned Kelly, born 1854
Beveridge was my town
I wasn’t born with a crown.
Irish parents I have,
Dad, a transported convict
told me, when I was a lad.
Dad, with possession of meat,
Without explanation, 
Was locked up because
Of legislation.
Six months later
Dad, died, 
got on the drink
His liver, he fried.

I was only 12, the oldest boy
Helping my mum
I tried to

Kelly

There was once a girl named Kelly
Who ate nothing else but jelly
It fell from her hands
Onto her pants
All she could see was her belly!

R Kelly

The often-accused R. Kelly
likes 'em young, say reports on the telly.
He says, "Innocent am I!" He believes he can fly!
Just as well as he sings, he can LIE.


"I Believe I Can Fly" -- hit song by Kelly
