Nevermore Poems - Poems about Nevermore

Nevermore, Whatever For?

My eyes wandered through an old photograph.
Pausing suddenly, I dissolved in tears,
remembering how, the first half of half
of my life, you were with me all those years, 

and how my young love, bonny, bright, and fair,
stroked you with fingers, delicate and soft,
as well she styled you, "beautiful blonde hair",
and admired you, as wind bore you

Sisyphus Silence

Sisyphus’ Silence

I sit, a silent, carved-out zone,

A soul entrapped, unlit, unwhole,

The majority’s tide grinds flesh to bone,

While others’ feelings wallow, roll

In mud that clings, a river’s drone.

Sisyphus slumps at mountain’s base,

Scowls at the stone, then dares a smile,

“Nevermore” hums through empty space,

The gods, once loud, now mute, exiled.

The Greatest Show On Earth Nevermore

 
Nevermore to return...the last performance was grand...one-hundred years in the making and now nothing can be found
A painted face with a smile lost and left behind
leaves a field of broken dreams
Where one child lies

A waning clock tics as the years pass by
Now, but, a memory is all I can find

Quietly 
Slowly
I turn the page
Of

quoth the raven - 'nevermore'

reality -
home, school
playground, job
in life everywhere we
are intellectually tested

t-rump -
an angry spoiled child
lost his billions and now
wants to rule the monopoly
game board with his farts

nevermore

an eagle …

snake clutched in talons
flew across the sun and cast its
shadow beachward 
like a dark arrow … loosened
I watched it soar and disappear into the
fingery brume of the high fells
as a cold breath of autumn slapped my
face, seeping bones …
as a heartsick lad, I had strode these
shores a thousand times
and a thousand more in

Letter Ends Her Name Nevermore ''E'': New Poetic Form--TEARASSONANCENET

Eve chose neither red nor green between these,
Eat, sweetened me' feet needn't desert Eden,
Keep earthen delved deep beneath heightened trees,
Heedless sell serpent issue agreed in.

Centuries teems decades, millennium,
Free Verse verses' a-peck-o-peppers-herbs,
Elves live in teepees Sumer pole Autumn,
Presley name per some steep fee minced-free verbs.

Requirements necessary--get there,
Senseless feather-headed time essential,
Execute effectiveness engineer,
Acquiescence evidence credential.

The Road to Nevermore

The hourglass betrayed 

The youth that once was mine

My brittle bones decayed

Through the ravages of time

A cruel and cold embrace 

Is what I have in store

A traveler to face

The road to nevermore

No mercy once begun

This weary winter's frost

Those days spent in the sun

Are now forever lost

The Sunrise of a Nevermore

The Sunrise of a Nevermore 
David J Walker

From here the sunsets closer than ever before
The deep rays quicken long-off memories

Removed to the distant shore 
The fabled days of youth are no more
As I turn and realize 

The light in my eyes
Was once the sunrise 

Of an opening door
That I have traversed 

But never more

O Bipolar, Harass Me Nevermore

O bipolar, harass me nevermore!
     Depart from me! For Easter Sunday's here,
     a comfort which transforms this time of year,
and gelds you like oxen for evermore.

O minotaur, you cursed bull! Whether more
     man than beast, for you I'll not shed a tear;
 

Becoming Alice In the Land of Nevermore

I am looking thru new eyes.
It's as if I'm Alice and,
I fell down the rabbit hole.
I see people for what they are,
Not who they are.
I am now in their world.
Fake smiles.
Fake faces.
Hidden feelings and arrogance,
But the same can be said for Johnny on the street,
who oddly resembles the Cheshire Cat,
Who only wants chaos and madness.
You

Nevermore

Here lay the broken shards
Of a glass called bones,
With it are weeping hearts
As cold as a stone.

You know you left too soon
Pending is our journey,
Awaiting is gloom.

You set fire to our kingdom,
Built a castle with the ashes,
Kept the crown, holding the matches.

The story continues…
How you fought battles,
Ablaze was you heart
Like your burning castles.

Walls are degraded

Nevermore

The vines of fear reap its satanic fruit
   in the hot sands
   and cold desert winds of war -
bitten by the martyr, the Jihadist, the brute!
   May its seeds of hate
   at its poisoned core wither and die
         

The Security of Nevermore

as if the body destroyed
endure the decline you try to mend
when entering and exiting appointment
and pharmacies and bandages
and palliatives and medicines
and therapies and hopes
and absurd bets
after the unsynchronized years
the age and the intercurrence of the discomforts
as they say putting velvet over the thorns
silently waiting for something wonderful to emerge
from the left end of the brightest

Napowrimo Day5: Myth's Passing

NaPoWriMo
NaPoWriMo Day5
Ancient
Shorts

Ancient powers forever lost
Mourn their passing
When time stands still.
Wander over hill and dale
March along the river's edge
On no occasion to be found.
Again, sweet song sung by the water
Beauty's incarnation to see the light nevermore.

Nevermore-

I used to be in bondage wrapped up and hogtied 
Now I'm freedom bound 
No longer neglected I'm found evermore
Oh, oh and shall I diddle and daddle  that'll in my old dirty ways
 I am risen washed and polished in Jesus name 

Nevermore 
Nevermore
Nevermore, evermore

Shall I worry never more shall I care 
Never more
