Mishaps Poems


The Clumsy Ghost's Moonlit Mishaps

A ghost set out one moonlit night,
His tattered sheet made quite the sight.
He’d planned to haunt with eerie flair,
But his faint glow was thin and rare.

He floated high, then snagged a tree,
His sheet got stuck—oh, woe was he!
The owls all hooted, “What’s this mess?
You’re less a spook, more fancy dress!”

He tried to wail, to chill

Premium MemberA Dream World

Are we living in a dream world
Contrasting the real world
When we're small 
We started dreaming
A dream world appeared suddenly
In front of the real world
Are we still living there
No,we aren't 
Now even frustrations and mishaps we face
Still
We're full of hopes and expectations
We face,we fight,we wish and we pray

Taking Naps Caused a Mishaps

Taking Naps Caused a Mishaps

What I was told about taking knaps,
They may cause a mental mishaps,
Shortness of mind,
After left behind,
Which will be of time a long lapse.

Missteps, Mistakes and Mishaps

Missteps, mishaps and mistakes

In a World of tears and fears
A world of half light and shadows
Where night is a fool… days last for years
And the only way out…is the gallows

Terrible are the times in a man’s life
When feelings of kinship
Seem lost in the night
And hatred diminishes the light

…After all It all ends in tears and

Road Mishaps

Their honks were like buzzes
From a desperate housefly;
Streams of smoke blurred the air
As the metallic insects cued up
On the road beaming the light of the night
Like a trapped lampyridae in a race-field

Its moves in snail-pace
Overtaking the unfortunate scraps
With broken eyes and disfigured body
Again, the honk increases
Like a trumpet from an elephant nostril
There came a monstrous

Holiday Mishaps

The room looks over and starts to chuckle.
An oddly beautiful stream of cider
Erupting from the nose of my uncle.
Kids waiting for a Christmas night rider,

All hoping to finally see Saint Nick.
Aunty Mary stands up and starts to twirl,
Nigh knocking over a lamp, she stops quick,
And she instead flattens the nearest girl.

Family running to see if

Mishaps and Misunderstandings

"Never once had he felt so bad."
The man told his good friend
"I don't know what happened, I'm sad"
His friend thought he had seen the end

What happened then, that night before
He had been talking to someone else
But after the fact his friend made him sore
He wanted him all to himself

No bad intentions, no leading on
It's not

Fireworks Mishaps

(This is a fictional poem)

On July the 4th I decided to light a firecracker with my cigarette.
It was something I soon lived to regret.
I accidentally threw my cigarette to the ground and put the firecracker in my mouth.
It exploded and all of my teeth came flying out.
After lighting a roman candle, the contents came down
