Seuss Poems - Poems about Seuss

Poems don’t have to rhyme, free verse it isn’t a crime I can write what I please—don’t call the police. Must I play the game, rhyme and spill intimate things? Can I develop leitmotifs without rhyming riffs? I could claim I’m writing prose - yeah, be one of those. No one can rhyme all the time. I can refuse—I’m no Dr...

Oh, the things we might write if we all channeled Seuss: like streams of Foie Gras through a cannibal goose! Even masters might gain, yes even the bard. Cuz you’ve got to admit it: that blank verse is hard. And thank goodness this doc was a Seuss, not a Geisel, or our poems would struggle to include a weasel. Yes,...

Quality children's books were what this man was bound to produce. He was a writer who died 30 years ago and his name was Dr. Seuss. He died in September of 1991 and was born in March of 1904. It's a great loss to the world because he can't write anymore. He wrote books such as "How The Grinch...

I woke up from the house of dead... Awakened by some noise I heard the sounds of two young children... Playing with their toys Alone I live here by myself...

The feast was all done, For Grinch and the Who’s, And after the meal, Came terrible news. For Max and the Grinch, And Who’s gathered round, No one spoke a word, Or a single Who Sound. The mayor spoke up, About our grinch crook, Of all that he broke, And all that he took. “You still did the crimes, So you’ll be on trial, For crimes of last...

Well Hello Doctor Seuss, May I offer you a Juice? It’s has been a while, Since you visited in style, And I’ve words to say, That I’ve kept for this day, So let me begin, I almost feel like kin!

*One very early Christmas morning long ago and far away, I was hard(ly) at work again. In the spirit of the season, and being a child again, I offer a poem I wrote as a tribute to Dr. Seuss: What walks through the forest, And shakes all the trees? Is it a fat tourist, With very large feet? Who don’t...

For us, Doctor Seuss was way cooler than Goose or Aesop, the Grim Brothers, or that Greek god Zeus, Mr. Rogers by a hair, although not the Muppets, where Cookie and Piggy were our favourite puppets. But we were surprised on our socially distant walk when this amphibian leapt up and started to talk or rather sing,...

March 2nd is the birthday of Theodore Geisel, better known as Dr. Seuss so, having grown up with his wonderful works, I've written a little tribute: Happy Birthday Theodore Geisel, here’s a meditation mat, made of sisal; I bought it in Mexico for your last birthday but, you’re number was up and you went away.
