Short Amply Poems

The fork goes on the left.
The poor go on the streets.
And the plate is amply full
when the thankfulness conceits....

FOOTSTEPS IN THE SAND


       Amply dimpled, so nicely defined

               Evenly spaced, so perfectly aligned

Touch of zest
Amply
Wit hurls jest

Who Will Read the Book? The Honeyjumper said.
I had no idea, for I was trying to pretend I was dead.
I will read it said Grandpa, whose face had turned red.
He was not the best reader, but he was amply fed....

Conceal
Fancy reveal
Sexy beauty surreal
Wholesome moments amply appeal
Goodwill

Splendour achieve
Witness wonder deceive
Astound ample active believe
Receive

Happy feels easy
Sorrow heaps plenty


Sadness feels heavy
Placid prompts cheery


Motive moves fancy
Discrete sows amply 


Divine mind inspires
Human kind conspires

Just bring me a box of matches and some pretty blue thread
I had no idea what was in the mind of my creative cousin Ned
He whipped up a climbing ladder, and stuck it near the bread
We went right up in a few minutes, and were amply fed....

Quatrain #876:
SOUL


Stillness speaks well as silence shows,
Observe truth dwell in touch that knows;
Urge flavours spell in mystic moods,
Love amply tells how soul moves flow.

A song to sing -
A heart that feels-
A pleasant thought
A tasty meal
A friendly smile-
A healthy temple--
Good conversation- -
A life so simple
Grandchildren- my life to extend-
A dog- a fish-like minded friends
Will suite me amply till the end....

I
Quaint, queer
Jesting, writing, laughing
Sighs, highs
Curious


Me
Stoic, loud
Telling, prompting, talking
Oddly, amply
Script tease


Myself
Tall, taut
Glimpsing, dreaming, touching
Crazy, bossy
Mimic

SUM YUNG GUY

I’d like to make something amply clear
And make some necessary corrections
I asked a Chinese American what was happening as November grew near
And he responded “they are hodeing presidential erections”

Soft words curl
Leapfrogs loud
Heavy lift


Soft sense knows
Discerns well
Poignant poise


Soft tell works
Grapples gist
Notice lures


Soft moods cast
Reveals more
Lavish zest


Soft moves plain
Subtle touch
Amply fond

With no forethought of romance
Simply wanting to look up, and gaze,
a cute little star winked at me,
unlike others though amply had blaze

'neath a veil of enchanting blue
with traces of beamy-red and yellow
she winked on into the night, my heart
swelling ever so full~feeling large as
a moon, enraptured, quite lustrous and
mellow.......

Marsupial luncheon was a huge success
We had enough food with a plausible guess
Kangaroo baby made an enormous food mess
We did not help mama clean it, I must confess.

It’s all in her pouch the koala said.
She is embarrassed. Her face is quite red.
Opossum did not reply. She was playing dead.
All marsupials were amply and adequately fed....

In the chorus of the sun
With that of the moon 
Light chorus amply sings
Night sounds another tune

Love sometimes cracks apart
Leaving a terrible stress
One heart lies in freedom
While the other breaks in two

For all appearances in one way
There is always another perspective
What one wants wholeheartedly
The other dies in respective

Shh! Babies are sleeping Dorie said.
Slumbering in dreamland with her Uncle Fred
Tummies full of dolly potatoes, they are amply fed
Especially after gulping down cinnamon bread

Two dreaming of a trip on an African bobsled
Cozily cuddled up in a rocking chair bed.
One baby dolly in a nightshirt made by Grandpa Ed.
All three in dreamland where only angels tread....

Jane was tiny, but then began growing
till her bosom most amply was showing.
Now she’s griping no more
as she goes out her door
on fun dates with her cups overflowing!

They talk about me in Cincinnati and Kalamazoo
In Texas, Idaho, Wyoming, Russia and Timbuktu.
They like my photos but few travel to New York City.
Where the Broadway shows are spectacular and witty.

A skyscraper, what is that? Asks a child from Chad.
I’m the Empire State Building, beautiful and bad.
Decorated each December in lights of green and red.
Come to New York City, see me, and get amply fed....

“Hope springs eternal”
a wise elder said to me
I never forgot
a strong cornerstone of faith
hope is found when needed most

I did not “find God”
faith was always part of me
in good times or bad
faith allows us to feel love
even for those who are foes

love is amply strewn
by all who have hope and faith
the blessed trio
travel lifelong together
escort us to heaven’s gate

Autumn colours drift down like aubergine 
Catch carelessly a crimson columbine 
Chestnut leaves flutter 

Auburn tinctures drop down like treasure troves 
Gather gently from glossy golden groves 
Amber blades clutter 

Sepia hues dance down like floating planes
Amass amply those amazing remains 
Ginger fronds putter

The Constellations, intricate designs,
Displayed across the sky,
Truly show intelligence,
And a practiced eye.

Not just scattered randomly,
But very carefully balanced,
Forming systems all their own,
Not happening by chance.

Extreme precision, mathematics,
Portend another being,
Enormous power to create,
A solar system teeming,

With life and beauty everywhere.
Nature at it's best,
Proves to us that God exists,
And that we're amply blessed....

Seize words and thoughts
Brine works the lot


Time takes a while
To urge clear style


Jot brief ideas
Then strain them clear


Here and there write
As moments cite


Fill notebook page
As feelings stage


Age for a while
Poise that you style


Live without fear
Watch peace thrill near


Wit flavours best
The working fest


Words like brandy
Jazz feel amply


Round and round hurl
Such precious pearls
