Mare Poems

Premium Memberstubborn opinionated doll named Mare

Dorothy had a stubborn opinionated doll named Mare.
Mare had a persnickety attitude, her nose in the air.
I am taking in boarders, she told the stunned Dorothy.
So far I have signed on two, with a possible three.

Dorothy was intimidated by this doll named Mare.
She told others, but they laughed, for they did not care.
How can I

Handled Mare with Care Horn Haiku

what we will look for
what waits for us at the door
will be more and more

weather may be bleak
when to God would speak
Him will always seek

what God would suggest
you will score high on my test
always do your best

truth has passed us by
in legalism up tie
much of do deny

when God rode a mare
slick and brown would be

Water Snake Night Mare

A bad sleep and I had to wake!
A long fight with as much long snake
From land progressing to a lake
I knew not what to of it make,
Save that Precious Life was at stake…

Inside the lake did I more ache,
For in it did more troubles take,
Not warned it was a water snake
And the swimming fighter ‘its

I miss you most 'twixt dusk and dawn
Wondering where you might have gone
Like Little Bo Peep
I'm stuck counting sheep
Thinking of you with nothing on

Premium MemberMare Does Things Her Way

Mare will harvest her pumpkins one of these years
Cheers to you all, she says, for she is unorthodox and crazy.
Lazy is her middle name, for the pumpkins all rot.
Not that she cares, for she is unconcerned about such stuff.

Rough hands look like they have gardened, but she has not.
Rot is what you find in her

A Hare For a Mare

It was to prove Some Sort of Snare,
When he, got the Gift of Hare
While he’d wanted to keep A Mare…

He wasn’t sure how he would fare,
Whether he wouldn’t be left bare;
What The Hell knows he of Hare,
Except its furs not like our hair…

Perhaps, he should sit on some chair
To reflect on the gift - Quite

When I Shall Begin To Care

What do I care
When at me eyes stare 
Or at me glare
And I safe from every snare? 

Why should I ever care, 
When you can’t hurt my hair 
Or much worse things dare:
The Terrible the Unfair?

Begin I shall to care
With a dispossessed mare 
Or a made-away ware 
And I can’t find it anywhere.

Premium MemberA Mare Usque Ad Mare

 
The motto for Canada is, A Mare Usque Ad Mare, you see,
it is Latin from the Old Testament of the Bible taken;
Psalm 72:8  "He shall have dominion from sea to sea, 
and from the river unto the ends of the earth"(I like it !)
So, since 1921 it has been Canada's motto "from sea

A Frenchmen’s Hell Nothing More
David J Walker 

No father
            Please I pled
It was only a dream
Nothing more
 
About mesquit trees
Turning themselves into mustang ponies
Nothing more
 
Running wild and free on a drunkards horizon 
A prairie’s floor 
The fences strengthened
The three gates tightened 
hanging
post to

Aging in almost every way you see
Her hair turning white
Teeth losing their bite
Sleeping less deeply every single night

The coffin-maker likes his black tight
