Lungs Poems - Poems about Lungs

Empty Lungs
She alone shadows my outside heart in glass, Unknowns in saws and hands, a lifetime's goodbye That her memory's stay will still on us crash, Where the breath in both our wombs, this hollow light — A channel of trees all grown up should, must last — And the tongue in her leaves also with me cries, The rattling of...

Premium Member SAVE THE MORIBUND LUNGS OF THE EARTH

Locking in scanty rainfall and a prolonged arid season, tall towering canopies fell down~ecosystem lost balance entirely. Greenhouse emissions omitted approx. 288–247 gigatones of carbon absorption, erosion erased...

A Strict District
All the folks in the district Know that they should walks restrict Or guards shall restrict their walks: Make them suspend lengthened talks Or with lengthened talk send down To the valley of the town… All the folks in the district Like human lungs that constrict, Because bronchitis is strict And tormenting hour picked… In an-too-strict district No lips just funnily licked No...

Swept away on the wave of your voice Never another will be my first choice I play with my eyes closed to take it all in Please song don't end, just forever begin Parked in the lot of my favorite store I have to compose this, I cannot ignore The beat of my heart, it just won't calm down...

Please Don'T Tamper With Us Forests
As you can see I am very big,... One of the biggest forests in the world. I belong to a major league Of chief forests of the veld. I pack, daily, tons of oxygen Which I release to the atmosphere. That gas, along with nitrogen, Needs replenishment as part of air. In here you can pick things to eat right away But most of...

Options Underwater
Options Underwater: The Song of the First Amphibian by Michael R. Burch “Evolution’s a Fishy Business!” 1. Breathing underwater through antiquated gills, I’m running out of options. I need to find fresh Air, to seek some higher Purpose. No porpoise, I despair to swim among anemones’ pink frills. 2. My fins will make fine flippers, if only I can walk, a little out of kilter,...

Premium Member Cheer Your Lungs Out
The crack of the bat The arc of the ball It lands over the fence Gives the fans a thrill Close play at the plate A headfirst slide Clouds of dust raised He's safe; game's tied! Cheer your lungs out Give an occasional boo Beer and brat at the ballpark Great day for me...

Premium Member At Last
Like bumping into an old friend un-expectantly a warm spring day arrives un-announced. People smile unabashedly making their entrance teeth first into each others view. It all seems so new. Winter’s curtain lifts like Marilyn’s skirt on a subway grate, ruffling everyone’s consciousness awake. When things are so fine, we all take note. A new alertness in...
