Short Bear Hug Poems

Bear hug, chest to chest
Two hearts tick
Wrapped in sheer comfort

Bear

A pair of bears together
Gather in for a cuddle
A bear with a pear 
And a bear with a ladle
One real and one not
One eats and one not

A still life and a life, the pair
Both giving a bear hug forever....

‘Without the claws,
Without the snarls and groans and growls,
Without the massive weigh differential…’
“Come here little teddy bear
Come here and give me a little hug”

A missing front tooth
Nightlight glowing soft
Height marks on the wall
Training wheels old news
Car keys in the drawer

Butterfly kiss
Mama bear hug
A runny nose
Love for my son

Brushing teeth
Bedtime tales
Shutting doors

Baked bread
Beer breath
 
Tears

(Youth is Wasted on the Young)

Oh, to be young again, 
and have your arms wrap me 
in bear hug warmth,
in breath-stealing squeeze,
as I taste morning coffee and cream.

So cold the cup rim, 
and how flat the flavor bine, 
without the channel 
of your steamy lips....

Gentlemen always say ‘Ladies first.’
Women always seem to adore it;
Masculine ways charm naysayers,
feminine tears a man does not permit;

Flower bouquet given for no reason, 
power to bring a smile and calm mind;
Shower of laughter and a bear hug,
our love is the old fashioned kind....

UNSUPPORTED CODE 

                                Loving Brothers

                           Hand hitting the face
                        Red burning titty twisters
                          Throbbing charley horse
                     Bone braking grizzly bear hug
               “Now, do you submit?,    .     .   .   . ”Uncle!”...

this or any other grandchild
should not have
to remember
his last visit
with grandpa
wearing a sterile mask
over his face
smile concealed
grandpa not allowed
to get close enough
for the traditional bear hug
or tickle session
this is breaking all the rules
defying all makings
for childhood memories

RAINBOW EMOTIONS

a laughter better than sunshine,
the smile of a child.

multiplied splendor
of a radiant day.

roar of thunderous
personality rays ~

rainbow colors of my world.

corners flip upside-down
into a universal beam,

powering the earth
with mirth...yet sadness,

as eventual clouds float overhead
tears run down a ruddy face.

i bear-hug the hope of mankind
with double-rainbow results.

The Tiger and the Bear.
Tooth and claw, tearing
flesh as death draws near.


Primitive killer instincts and
lack of fear


Sheer brute strength with a
blood thirst to quench.


The Bear, a tower of strength
with a razor sharp Bear hug to
dissuade.


The Tiger, a ferocious attack upon
your back. Blends in like the wind
itself, moves with stripes of deadly
stealth.


The Tiger and the Bear.
Tooth and claw, tearing
flesh as death draws near...

I hear it snowed at home today
while I basked in the sun.
I don't care, I cannot wait
to hold my little ones.

Edna my precious first born
with your hair of flaming red.
I miss talking things through.
The wise things you've said.

Cora with that bear hug
I love walking into.
Tight embrace, I'm encased
in the love flowing from you.

Rena my baby now and always.
Turning twenty soon.
The joy you've given, I'm smitten.
Love you to the moon.

And back!

She's a skilled fighter
Nests a fire-breathing dragon
Rests in the barrel of her gun
The rumble of thunder

Just a drop of her blood
The badge stood crime still
Time froze in her powerful spill
Injustice fertilised the ground

Against all tradition, she's a knight
Hidden beauty behind the vise
Maiden on the wings of justice
An angelic armour shinning light

I drink daily from her mug
A fresh cop of her love
Full of peace like a dove
Her shield protects me like a bear hug...
