Overstated Poems | Examples

Premium Member Free to Be Me

oh yes, I am pixilated
This cannot be overstated
At least I am not still constipated
movements never premeditated
my freedom is to be celebrated

Fruitcake

You may say I'm crazy
but as it takes one to know one
do you have what I've got
if I am are you too
and am I nuts to think I'm not
the shrink he's not telling
despite all my yelling
he only asks how it makes me feel
it's quite a strain on the brain
is he really and truly for real
then again if I'm insane
as the earth is bipolar
it's no wonder
there are so many weirdos and whackos
in a world torn asunder
at least I'm not alone
I think you'll find
it can't be overstated it's overrated
sanity
it's all in the mind

Premium Member new species of dinosaurs

In modern day times since twenty-fifteen
Fifty new species of dinosaurs have been seen
Because new places are being rapidly excavated
Excitement generated cannot be overstated


Premium Member h e a v e n

how would we remember? I know we have been there
elegance is probably overstated, I see it as a place of service
angels will be singing songs we love the best when we arrive
visualize colors we cannot see on earth, new magical colors
every soul we have ever met will be there to greet or remind us
now is the time to make amends and peace before we get there

Premium Member A WALT DISNEY INSPIRED BLESSING


Today’s blessing takes its inspiration from Walt Disney
whose wisdom can’t be overstated..
Just look at all the joy and laughter
In the wonderful world that he created:

May we be blessed to understand….
The answer to this aging quiz…
That growing old is not our choice
But how we choose to grow old is.

Premium Member THANKFUL FOR PARADES

Today I’m thankful for parades
reminding us something that cannot be overstated….
How every step along the road of life…
needs to be celebrated


Premium Member Sharing the News

Sharing the News

The power of sharing
can never be overstated, 
or under understood. 
Together we make a difference. 
Like single drops of rain, 
coming together from the sky
to the land... 
creating streams, 
rivers, 
and floods, 
all the way to the Great Ocean
and beyond. 

Sharing is the power of knowing
that you believe and are sure
that what you know is true, 
and the over-exuberance of holding on
to so much reality
makes us want, 
and desire too... 
give to others what we have found. 
Knowledge, 
wisdom, 
and purpose. 

Share, 
like there is no tomorrow, 
as the likelihood might be
you are right, 
rather than wrong. 
Share, 
and tell others 
about the Lord, 
and His Son
the King!

Running With Scissors

The dangers of health and safety 
Cannot possibly be overstated
Because yesterday I tripped over 
A pile of paper H&S related 

It's a minefield of regulation
I've bought a tsunami plan 
And six fire extinguishers 
For a one-man-business band 

The ludicrous requirements 
Are completely over the top... 
Soon I'll have to wear safety goggles 
When I vac the floor and mop

Premium Member Final Farewell

and then death came upon him
under the cloak of the night
three more breaths and silence
an ending of suffering as a blessing 
to comfort the pain and demise

the dashing man startling in his youth
had been reduced to cachexia
every last sip of water near torture
a few crumbs of food an unwanted event

the mouth of many a wisdom now quiet
eyes closed in peace and tranquility

when I have to go myself
I wish for a quicker journey
less prolonged agony
fewer moments of ‘I am almost there’

his last words to me were
there is Kai sitting in a corner
and spreading peace
and he now doubt overstated my presence

life is precious and so is death
a passing relief in a way
an event with no before and no after
so large is the trauma of being let go

Premium Member Measure of Fame

MEASURE OF FAME
the self evident
  motive
 appears&
  correlates
a
likeness famoso

 exemplary
    predicated
 to elaborate &
       fragment
into
a gleaming
catalyst
   burgeoning
but
 tenacious
&  becoming

enlarged
    to adorn
      by intrigue

of an
 overstated
     phenomena

THIS IS AN OPEN(organic) FORM VERSE without grammatical symbols the ' open' relies upon 'the one breath limitation' & so inherently requires the 'reader' (reciter) to input and respond thus making the form a two way interplay and often a unique interpretation by the enigma so derived

Premium Member Barbie As Lady Godiva

Ken sits and stares from his pink cadillac.
She’s unlike the pretty girl he dated.
Birthday suit stretched on tight over nude slacks.
She’s definitely not overstated.

Ken thinks his Godiva’s lost her mind.
Nevertheless he buys her a pony
to ride and a very long wig that blinds.
Barbie giddyaps — she’s fancy-free.

It is as simple as that, she’s cut out
her fashion wardrobe, wears no pantyhose.
She was a lifetime working girl, devout.
Tired of modeling, Barbie wears no clothes.

Premium Member Blind Faith and Me

I know without knowing how I know 
Bathed instantly in a feeling of truth
I understand fully and instantly 
Without any clue how I know what I know
Convinced beyond the realm that it is true
Following her lead with blind faith, 
Trusting in the essence of my soul guides

I used to fight my inner voices
They did not fit into society’s ideas
They did not conform
They did not wait their turn
They were not socialized 
They did not play well with others
But I followed them 
With complete faith they were right for me

They have saved me from car wrecks
They have saved me from heartbreak
They have saved me from destroying myself
I know they are from God, 
Angel’s voices
Waiting in my soul’s fibers
To save me, nurture me and conceal me
The importance of blind faith cannot be overstated.

Wine and Beauty

Wine and Women 
Women and Wine 
From the origin of human
Will remain complement each other 
Civilized and rude society
For the fun of a moment within the society
Dearest instrument
Wine and women 
Women and wine 
From the overthrown society
Civilized and rude society
Inside corruption, misconduct, crime
Unhealthy health
Development 
"Two times a day, four times a night."
Not to be overstated
It may not be the case
Yet responsible government, institutions, 
Stakeholders are silent
For what
To create 
Healthy society
Unhealthy society
……………………?

Premium Member Bird Seed

Bird Seed

The power of a small kindness,
can never be overstated.

Billie Eilish

Ocean eyes and 
billowing, bulging
covering: the most 
vulnerable parts of you
unspoken
so somberly sad
in the most 
curious places
your style is wild
and your flare overstated
your smile may lie
all she wants
but your eyes tell
the truth
to mine.
