Short Amos Poems

Like cookies by legend Amos
This day's for presidents famous
The resident scoop
On such a small group
Makes us like an ignoramus...

A milkmaid in the town of Nome
Never found time to write a poem
She woke up Randy
Amos and Andy
And squeezed them 'til the cows came home...

Forget-me-not sprigs
for the nipper of figs
and dandelion soup set a boil
The sycamore tree
leans ever toward me
crowned in humility: loyal....

Canadian Willie Amos
Was so eager to be famous
To prove he's no prude
He zoomed in the nude
And peed to confound the shamus

26.IV.2!...

Here lies Hector Amos McSpiel
Slipped on a tossed banana peel
It really was not Hector’s fault
He came down hard upon his heel
We buried him here in a sturdy vault  

Written April 8, 2022...

A splendid actor was the late Walter Brennan.
There were so many movies and television shows he was in.
One of his characters I would particularly enjoy:
That was when he played grandpa Amos McCoy.

Poor absent minded
Amos Magoo!
He used to be Keeper 
Down at the zoo.
                                                           
But his name was included 
On today's obits page.
He tried putting a tiger
In a parakeet cage...

Jesus was not born from the rich
does not belong to the rich...
But he advocates for rich and poor
in conversation... epistemology...
He is not Amos
nor Isaiah!
The contrast between rich and poor,
only possible on earth...
Due to misunderstanding and ignorance...
There is no contradiction in heaven,
in the Kingdom of the Lord...!...

Her moves want to be famous
She tells her love while she moves. 
She sings like Tori Amos
Lost in peace as she grooves. 
Subconsciously trying to prove. 
Her heart is pure as water
When she dances her bodies less hotter.

Like a landscape of calming green
Surrounded by crystal blue water
Her soul reborn and clean.

What do you want from me
Is there something you want me to see
Just ask
Don't make it a never ending task
Don't give up your life
What about your wife
She loves you
Don't make her blue
Quit following me
Let me be
I don't want me picture taken
But I do take me hot chocolate shaken
I can't seem to get away
Oh, by the way
I'm not rich and I'm not famous
But my name is Amos...

Beseech the wooden hip and eye
To paddle off and caper.
Beseech the Maxfold cat and stye
Forlorn with hairy Gator.

Bring not thy chesticle to bear,
Thy open arms to boot.
Beseeching here and everywhere
To hear old Amos flute.

'You can but not cumcumber me!'
He gummed in chitter-chatter,
And passing water from his knee
Knew something was the matter.

Alas! Alak! A Ladybird-
A lullaby in butter.
Beseech in me the rare absurd,
Not sane, not yet a nutter....

Out of sight and ought of mind is a philosophy vain,

It holds not a bit between friends of standing;

(Not even between enemies, again!)

The more time takes you from sight,

Much more your thoughts arrest my mental train;

And I can’t help but pen this rhyme,

To treat the wound wreaked by time.

 

Till again we meet these two observe:

Remember your Savior upon the Calvary tree,

And the others a kind request of love,

That you please pray for me!...
