Lobby Poems - Poems about Lobby

luxurious hotel lobby in 1962

New Orleans’ 1962 ostentatious hotel lobby
extravagant crystal fluted chandeliers
highly polished walnut counter tops
opulent Italian marble floors
plush scarlet velvet cushioned couches
swankly brass and glass décor
luxury never seen after nineteen sixty-two

Strangers in a Motel Lobby in Arkansas

motel lobby in arkansas
close to the crystal bridges
young man with tattoos walks to large creamer
he begins to pump creamer into coffee
sees me and indicates I go ahead of him.

Ii shake my head ‘no”
tell him to go ahead, he will be quicker than me
two polite strangers making conversation
in a motel lobby in arkansas
I sit down to

Lobbying

When others speak
in hushed tones,
behind closed doors,
my voice
rises
for the voiceless.

My heart
only knows
to advocate,
to persuade,
to fight
for the cause.

A Trip To Hobby Lobby

Wreaths
Paintings
Wall hangings
A decorator's paradise

Wooden cars
Paint brushes
Stick on designs
A child's moment to learn how to drive for the first time

Candle wicks
Candle scents
Colored wax
A candle maker's luxury

A hobby for all
Who come to seek out
Their good fortune

In the Presence of Greatness

She swirls like desert sand
She has a natural curve of welcome
Complex, with the openness of a sensual woman
Each beautiful light-filled stroke artistic genius.

She is an overall intriguing pattern of love.
I came to this lobby today to write a poem.
Instead, I stare in awe, feeling humbled.
Who was the architect?

Surely one lone person did not envision this

Sitting In the Lobby To Read

His moustache was long and black,
silky at the ends, shiny almost,
slick with gel to keep the ends
turned up in a smile, even when
his lips didn't match.  They look
like shoestring ends, she thought,
all perfectly pulled together on
either size of a bulbous nose.
She never asked his name, just
watched as he strode with
purpose through the lobby of

Courthouse Lobby

In the lobby of the courthouse
People’s demeanor
Are such a telltale
Casual and comfortable
The secretaries
Determined and debonair
The lawyers
Focused and unperturbed
The judges
And then the others
With scowls on their faces
Nervousness and concern
The weight of accusation
The slow ominous pace
Of being led directly
To the slaughterhouse

Looting With Hobby Lobby

If we pray for other countries to prosper, real neighbor ...
As Old Cultures and Histories model, imbibe, declare ...
There would be fewer dark nations seeking refuge in whiter

Would you even consider praying for Nicaragua, El Salvador,
Gautemala, Honduras, and Mexico to reach more of their poor
With JUSTICE, fair prices for what they own, sell, barter???

Even as

The Lobby

A lobby's meant to represent
The building it is fronting,
To welcome all who enter
From the elements it's blunting.

It may be fancy, to impress
Or functional and boring
But either way, it greets us
From its ceilings to its flooring.

And whether an apartment, office,
Inn or a hotel, 
The lobby sends a message
Not too easy to dispel.

It lets us know if

Hotel Lobby

Hotel Lobby

There is nothing quite so lived in as a hotel lobby.
The seats are worn with daily use, the lighting just the right depth to hide the shadows who have passed through its angles, sharpened with use.
The maître d' returns my watchful eye with disdain
I do not belong in this hotel lobby;
Too many children and

Hotel Lobby

Hotel Lobby

To be in a lobby is oh such a shame,
Lonely and troubled it’s all such a game,
Suits and stubble typing like pawns,
Fed to the lions before going cold.
Success in their minds with a stench of despair,
As they desperately struggle to sustain a soul.
Battered and worn with the internet scorned,
Corporate specials are oh such a
