Leaguers Poems | Examples


Premium Member Veritas

Ivy leaguers smell like turd bits
Near the king’s commode where he s*its
Don should flush elites
Like what he excretes
Including these ass wipes and twits:

Yale University…J.D. Vance
Yale University…Scott Bessent
Yale University…Daniel Driscoll
Harvard University…Robert F. Kennedy Jr. 
Harvard University…John Phelan
Harvard University…Dean John Sauer
Princeton and Harvard…Pete Hegseth
University of Pennsylvania...Tiffany Trump
University of Pennsylvania...Donald Trump Jr. 
University of Pennsylvania...Ivanka Trump
University of Pennsylvania…Elon Musk
University of Pennsylvania…D.J. Trump
University of Pennsylvania and Harvard…Mehmet Oz

All have a mobile

Small guys or bigger, all have a mobile,
E’en tattered beggars… all have a mobile.

Social-media eager has a mobile,
Be they big bloggers… all have a mobile. 

Even a gravedigger has a mobile,
Or well-known figures… all have a mobile.

One not sweet like sugar has a mobile,
Or sweet-voiced singers… all have a mobile.

Every Tom, Dick, Meagre has a mobile,
Big figure leaguers… all have a mobile.

Ghazal (Tongue-in-cheek) |11.10.2024| humour

Poet’s note: Every Tom, Dick, Meagre has a mobile, as this Ghazal claims, but many true leaguers do not bother about smart phones. The world truly runs by the people that keep low profile. The billionaire investor Warren Buffet used no smart mobile for long years till Apple’s Tim Cook gave one insisting on its use. He does not waste time on social media. Pop Singer Ed Shiran also does not use smart mobile, and says, I used to see world through mobile’s screen, but now I see it with my own eyes. We can add actor Tom Cruise and singer Justine Bieber in this list, and quite a few more.


Premium Member Oh, Christmas Tree

scraggly
let's face it
not quite Charlie Brown 
scraggly
but scraggly 
just the same
you were alive, though
and that's the thing
new house, new yard--
--needed you
Christmas did, too.
so killed two birds with one
you
am i really tearing up 
over a tree?
you're so much more
thirty years
of memories
little boys in roper boots
and cowboy hats 
riding rocker horses
grew into little leaguers
then men
overnight
and a sweet baby girl
blessed us
and went from tea sets
to barbies
then... boys 
before her daddy 
could ever be ready
while you grew
the house grew, too
moved you first to fatten 
the driveway
then again for an addition
finally, to the corner you're in
--you just needed more room
for all the memories
you keep 
with me, now
oh, Christmas tree

~ Let's Have a Parade ~

A Shriner drives his little car
  Hairpin turns upon a star
Red-fezzed Turks play guitars
  Let’s have a parade…

A marching band is next in line
  Buglers trumpet notes so fine
Cymbals crashing all the time
  Let’s have a parade…

Egyptian camels with two humps
  Maneuver over traffic bumps
Circus dogs through hoops do jump
  Let’s have a parade…

Little Leaguers, baseball teams
  Young majorettes live their dreams
Confectioners dispense mint creams
  Let’s have a parade…

A special occasion is not needed
  If my advice would just be heeded
Camaraderie and Joy to be seeded ~
  Let’s have a parade…

                    Baseball,we miss games
                    Some eggheads snarl at their pay
                    Making gain, a shame
                    None of us perfect, or are we
                    Little Leaguers, beats rioting

Dedicated to those who coach and who play in Little League,
or....have friends and family playing baseball!
And to retired players who are poets here today. Thank you!
You learned good values of sportsmanship, and that winning 
and losing is all part of life! ...Play ball!


Premium Member A Reflective Poem of the 1970's Drive In Movie Mark of the Witch

There is a stack of books over there 
One has information that could change your life if you care 
Then have your collegiate book fair 
And in the end you will end up with a scare 

You will find out about your descendents past 
On that seventies stage of academics with flasks 
Oh my you lovely book warm 
Your attitude will  turn 

If you are obsessed with these pages 
At your intellectual ages 
A witch will invade your space 
And you may have to built your case 

Why oh why are these younglings destined to die 
Watch Mark of the Witch 
that has Ivy Leaguers who all they do is  .

Premium Member Salute To Little Leaguers

Here's to Little Leaguers!

Who get to learn companionship,
leadership, skills and more!
Who are not out killing or doping!
These are the children not on TV.
The hours of practice they spend.
The joy of developing skills.
and learning to play by the rules.
They are a blessing to this nation
Their parents are too!
Thank you parents and players who
show us a future of a bright and
glorious American nation.
Your work year round creates
childhood transformation!

The Spread of Crime

Students at Columbia
Are smart and also deft,
Yet someone’s figured out their scheme,
Which is a form of theft.

They aren’t robbing banks or stores
Or stealing from the dorms,
But something’s disappearing,
Likely carted off in swarms.

I’m talking ‘bout Nutella!
It’s a chocolate, nutty spread – 
The perfect yummy nourishment
To slather on some bread.

It’s also quite delicious
From the jar onto a spoon.
With loads of it in the café,
Temptation’s opportune.

But now the secret’s out and so
The stuff may disappear.
The Ivy Leaguers may need other
Substances to smear.

The weirdest thing to me is that
This story made the news.
Nutella theft must be among
The campus’s taboos.

A parent would be reassured
While on a college tour
To hear the biggest crime was
A Nutella saboteur.

Just as any durable and competent shortstop,
you cleanly field practically anything coming on the hop.
Your athletic ability shows when you throw to first base.
Among the best major leaguers, you have taken your place.

You hit equally well from both sides of the plate.
Your surge of power in recent years has been great.
On the base paths, you have been a constant threat.
As a base stealer, you are among the best ones yet.

Proven to be a player of the best kind,
to the Phillies, you have been quite a find.
May you continue to play baseball for many more years.
Among the home crowd, you will hear many cheers.
