Norther Poems | Examples


Bassoon the goon and the Rit'uss wonez

Freid Manoes and Oysters
with waffles and fried leeks
with bacon and maple gravy.
That Ole Gal tried
to stuff us up like hogs.
Man the boudin was meaty,
 the burgers beefy
sipping wine
feelin soothed and satified!
Right that one down:
think bout using it!
I thought that leomey cream cheese
was bit norther
but it worked good wit dah maple gravy
ya'll! Ohh we, nuts for all!
Can't keep queit 
when the sound is groovin
shakin it up and down
keep my body movin
aint no party like
the ones with you
tell me what we gonna do
I want the morning
wiff you
I want the night to stay
and last alittle longer
so we can always be in love you see.

Goodbye Nimbus

Sky walks on childhood white cloud dreams—
Wind's gist, my puffy pillows, undo; stunned
With tastes of sugar rain in coffee mug—
Dropped out of the air, I break in streams

That trickle down her nose; withdrawn in
A memory walking home from play,
The sunset a strange blue fade that day,
Songbirds fleeing norther; she's hushed them

With the sky's rivers of crime,
A girlhood doll robbed by rainfall's stealth—
The eternal crack in me herself—
To weather out, when by time.


Premium Member Maybe Ill Go For a Walk

Maybe I’ll Go For A Walk
David J Walker

Maybe I’ll go 
	For a walk
Old men think such thoughts
	About 
How to spend time on
A cold December morn

Maybe I’ll walk
	In the park
Disembark in a different
form
Same land different 
	Time 
When the park was 
	Mine
And my friends 

No ends to the things
We could do
Even if a blue
Norther came in

Maybe I’ll go 
	For a mile
And maybe a mile more

One mile 
every day
until I need not 
	go away
anymore

A Panhandle Christmas

The snow was blowin' and the cows roamed free
Outside Amarillo in fifty three.

It was Christmas eve, my fingers was froze -
I swore and cussed at this life I had chose.

Then, of a sudden, there appeared this sleigh.
He said,"Howdy, boys, I have lost my way!"

I laughed at this fat man rubbin' his toes,
And said,"Old Timer, where's Rudolph's red nose?"

He said,"Son,in fog he saved my gizzard,
But he ain't no help in a blowin' blizzard."

I was surprised that this really was him,
Told him that I'd help and my name was Jim.

I said,"Santa, this wind's from the North Pole,
We call it a Blue Norther sure as your soul!"

He said, "Well I'll go home buckin' this wind,
Ain't sure I'll see this Panhandle again."

He must have changed his mind come the next year.
Left me a note and a six pack of beer.

So you see, my son, Santa's on his way.
You get to sleep..tomorrow's Christmas Day.

Winter's Beginning

A cuddlesome babe when
The norther came
Wind-brushed cheeks,
She cried.


Mama pulled over a blanket on her face,
Ducked her own snooded head
Walked toward home
And warmth.


Off to school another day,
Another norther slashed her tender legs,
Shirley Temple curls blew wildly,
She learned her abc's.


Another norther another time,
She held hands with her football player,
Northers' winds unfelt,
She was in love.


A mother now, she cups another,
A cuddlesome babe in pink,
Pulling a blanket over her tears,
She drives a car to chocolate.


Northers came and northers went,
And bitter winter winds,
She's a babe again,
Winter winds can't blow on her.


And she sleeps to their singing
Dreams of blossoms and springs,
Sweet water-flowing springs,
Winter winds making music.

Opaline

Translucent and absorbing light
Opaline and burning
A piece of farther norther glass
Death and nightmares earning

Silhouetted against the dawn
Flashing in mid-sun’s light
Laying on the burning sand
A crystal piece of night

Canada Squared

I live in a place called Canada
where it's always hot or cold
Our bodies adjust accordingly to the freeze or burn of toes.
We have four season's unlike the rest,
and id say its quiet a scene,
But when you're here you cherish the sites 
for there's so much to do and see. 
We speak Enlgish- We speak French , and not one is all the same
But we do our best in hopes to include all equally just the same.  
Up here in norther Canada we do all we can do
but when it's minus fifty eight we're also  inside too.
Sometimes it's hot and sometimes it's not, in upper Canada
That's why we try to stay outside- when our weather is just right. 
Canada can be the place to be
If its meant for you.
You'll stay with us and all the rest 
 All just because you want too.
