Nod Poems - Poems about Nod

Plains of Nod

Amidst thy grassy sea,
Stands a lone cottonwood tree.

A man of red–
His many feathers
Scatter like dust–
Away in the wind.

Amidst thy cottonwood tree,
Lies a man who once was free.

A man of blue–
My musket, aflush
A sacred scarlet–
Stricken with iron.

‘Thy brother’s blood crieth unto me.’

My blank canvas,
Suspends in time–
For I – I
Hath begotten flames–
Unto this rich plain 
Of gold.

Smile and nod

Smile & nod
Actin like my attention spans top notch
Steady glancin at the clock
Checkin my wrist with no watch 
Don't take  offense 
This probably won't make sense 
Sht got me all jittery & tense 
I really can't help it
My brain cells are spent 
Done way too many drugs
Still do...just because 
I keep going & going

Perchance To Dream

eds are deadly dangerous
more people die there
no matter young or old
than anywhere
else in the whole wide world
(or so I've been told)
and if it's not too late
someone should legislate
to outlaw
and recall them all
then instead we'll sleep on the floor
so before you go
up the wooden hills to Bedforshire
and wend your weary way
to the land of Nod
if you

A Nod to Dante's Inferno

A nod to Dante’s Inferno


First: Home to unbaptized and the self-righteous
Retirement home of the afterlife 
Aristotle, is there, in his own way, pious
So, deep talks, CSPAN, and not much strife

Second: The final home of the lecherous 
Anyone controlled by their own hormones
Cleopatra, Helen is there, so adulterous
And, reality tv stars calls it their home 

Third:

Gave Claude Nod and Sent to God

we gave Claude a nod
sent his poems to friends and God
spoiled child and spared rod. 

Great things God has done
we will always love His Son
He is Holy one

with God friends would share
He and Son are quite a pair
sins are hard to bare

when we have great news
each page read then we will use
tickle and amuse

Premium MemberTrue colors

A recent brush with death,
makes most people reflect..
They stop and think of God,
not just give him a nod..
It's been less then two weeks
and Trump's back to nasty tweets..
True colors flaring again, slings
mud at Joe Biden.
This man has got the nerve,
"Biden's not fit to serve".
President Biden deciding not to rerun,
not enough for some Republicans..

Premium MemberNod if You Believe Me

Do you know Wynken Blynken and Nod?

Claimed they had reservations with God

When we asked them for proof

They all went through the roof

Don't you think that reaction is odd?


Tho we said we would listen to more

Then they claimed there'd be dinner for four

Said they couldn't be late

Cuz God hated to wait

And would throw all their food

Premium MemberNod To Greed

His was a lifetime 
spent grabbing
	storing
	stashing
	garnering
	stealing
	collecting
	depositing
	amassing...
try-try-trying  to fill  
his soul hole   carved deep
   from a youth
   from a poverty
of having nothing.

But all was but a sinkhole
each stash
   more greedy-desperate
and heavier
   than the last.

In the end
   all was as nothing 
An aggradation,

Premium MemberBlinkn Winkn and Nod

This looks like Blink’n Wink’n and Nod the old-timer said.
He was a lifelong reader, this guy we call Frankenstein Fred.
I thought it was Wink’n Blink’n and Sod, I said to rile him up.
He rolled his eyes at me and took a sip from his coffee cup.

He knew I was kidding, and that was okay because

To Establish Justice, Will God Nod

Is peace of mind for all the souls possible?
Can the happiness of the World we double?
These questions are totally unanswerable
As the loving part of human heart is feeble

Man is supreme among all the living races
By hook or crook, victory he easily traces
With vengeance, every soul, he chases
He loves to stash money in suit-cases

Money makes him

Premium MemberNod To God

Wynken, Blynken, and Nod,
Decided to speak to God.
Wynken was thinkin,
If he left it to Blynken;
It wouldn't burden Nod.

Blynken was of the mind,
Him and Wynken were two of a kind.
He'd forget about Nod,
Cause he thought he was odd;
And couldn't relate to God.

But, Nod had his own plan;
And knew God would understand.
He'd forgive the two,
About the doubts

As Winter Flees Giving Spring A Begrudging Nod

As winter flees giving Spring a begrudging nod
So the farmer waits to turn over life giving sod
Mother Nature, bows to Heavenly hand of God
Summer too, waits to embrace racing feet unshod
Young lads dancing forth with live bait and fishing pole
With promise of joy and food from fav fishing

Premium MemberA Simple Feel-Good Nod

How sweet are the messages of affirmation,
Enhancing our self-image when we are down
Often providing reason for contemplation,
But should not be worn like a golden crown.
To give someone else a simple feel-good nod
Elevates the spirits of both giver and receiver,
Now and then, everyone deserves that laud
Being noticed for being a creative achiever.

Affirmation gives a special boost
