Portions Poems | Examples


Premium MemberLimit Those Portions


     Don’t drink this
       Never eat that
     No ‘naked carbs’ now
       or you’ll get fat

     Too much sugar
        too much grease
     From fries and pizza
        you’d better cease

      Limit those portions
         Dessert, not a nibble
      Else like pudding or jello
         you won’t walk, you’ll wriggle

      Well I’ve had it, you hear
         I’m off my diet at last
      ‘Cos if I eat any less
         I might as well fast

Distorted Portions

She speaks words I like to hear
she pronouncate
her words so clear
I embrace her
for more than a Kiss
our time apart I stop
to reminese
Don't leave me strange
and in an unwanted way
 things I never thought I
would have to say
must I balance my time 
between you and my wife
Uncertainty of a nightlife
might we exist to see see the day
That morning comes and 
erases the night away

FAITH

Oh boundless faith
You are a gift
How do we get it?
Less it's too late.

Oh help not far
The fall of man
Or a woman,
God is so near.

Premium MemberPortions

Across the lakes

Through frozen flakes
 
They come in storm, 

Whose breath be warm 
 
To change a freeze 

Into a tenderness, 

To fall and splatter, 

With applause

To somehow matter; 

Offer cause,

Hard against the clotheslines of 

The earth of every yard.

Spilling a releasing warmth 

To all frozen tongues and 

Flowered root that soon 

From canon stalks will shoot 

The sky with both barrels 

Of new brightness. 

Seizing every eye,

As spring is born. 

Pages torn, windows flung, 

Songs sung and

Sun splashing warm kisses 

Onto cheeks that blush 

With wishes 

For only more.

A day or two of lasting pleasure

Amore’, 

This too, a part of 

Our forever story.

I will sit outside tomorrow 

On a tiled balcony

Have my breakfast, 

Scrambled eggs 

And caviar, 

Portion out a peace

To share with God.

The Public Privy

My phone a private gadget
Sweetheart-
My dress a private garment
Sweetheart-
My weave a private attire
Sweetheart-
My Sop a private program

My roam private trekking
Dear-
My wallet a poach in heart
Lover-
My calls meetings in camera
Baby-
My texts unpublished docs

My utmost toast -
All of this belongs to you
Except what I've said not
This wrist dear you for
This private your public lot
Sweetheart-
I love you  a lot

not trim

Small Portions of Time

Developing a skin of leather
You know birds of feather flock together
The universe stitched fine like mesh
Indulging in myself with only love for the flesh
We are only small blips in time
The mind thinks it's all mine
How could i hope to ascend
When i can't see it's all pretend
The ego acting as the biggest defender
To never give up on the inevitable surrender
