Ode to the Three-Minute Poem Plop
In the study, bright and sunny,
I thought I'd try something funny.
Three minutes, that's all I need I cried,
As I set my timer, pen and paper aside.
I brewed my thoughts, to nice and hot,
Clicked the timer, it proclaimed a plop.
The words danced, swirled in a muse ballet,
Melding to a happenstance touche.
But, soon my thoughts began to

Popsicle Plop
When I tried to lick an icy pop,
When bike riding, with two-up on top.
I screamed and you squealed
As ice cream, revealed
Two riders fly head over heels plop

Stop and Plop
At a certain diner I often stop
It's super cheap; they serve such slop
Afterward, a broom and a mop,
Then on the pot 'til there's a plop

A Single Raindrop - a Magical Plop
One day whilst going out to play
I felt a plop upon my head
Oh what was that, I cried out loud
Then spied the largest blackest cloud
Maybe a warning of more to come
As he flung a raindrop just for fun
Or was he laughing; having a joke
Intending to give me a jolly good soak
Imagine my joy when combing

Plip Plop Plip Plop Pickle Playing Clock
Penny dropped circular clocks on carved out emblematic wisdom cones. Be careful if it rains coal dust as radioactive drones, mobile phones, and teapots too could all gather to form lines of imperialism. How rather interesting it is to count the snot flung out of the window. It often lands in a rather interesting pattern

The Plop of a Frog-Colored-Grief
Everything is creased & kept
In right place & order
To avoid even a particle of dust.
But all worms
Are not devised to
Die before a naphthalene.
The dead narcissus,
The spittle of wind on windowpane,
The half-empty dish of rice
Beside the folded mattress
Make me return & recall
The days of nursery school,
The lesson of my favorite farmer.
His corns would come &

Plop
praise the first begotten sun
and soak in his light
for pure delight
if you can't take the sun
run in the night
taking the pale mounts light
his name is death
death is his right
the end of your light
and when you meet death
just to his right
your see my flight
yes i'm a falling star
with everything in sight
piercing so bright
touching your

Drip, Drop, Plop
With a Drip, Drop, Plop
The rain will sop
Upon a leaf they land
Then roll onto the sand
Absorbed by the ground
Prepares the next go round
It filters through the rock
All around the clock
The plants will seed
The living it feeds
Then onto the river it runs
Until evaporated by the sun
Into the air it mists
And gathers like a fist
In the shape
