Short Bolster Poems

spoke my sun away
to bolster my own ego
and be with the stars...

ripples form on surface
swells crest and surge forward
shoals break then bolster...

Perturbed By Each Pollster

Politicians are perturbed by each pollster;
Their popularity would refuse to bolster;
Are annoyed;
Not enjoyed;
Should have parked mouth in his holster.

the doorbell rang
it was a delivery man
I looked outside
indoors I hide
cautiously opening the door
the man steps back
it looks like a sack
I thank him and get my scissors
I open it carefully
and to my surprise
it's my yoga bolster
AWESOME!...

Perfection
Comes encased 
In an illusion
Hiding the decays
And the facets
Of imperfection.

Like a mirror
With two faces
The good glitters
And the bad
Lurks and reflects
In dark recesses.

A banal farce
Of human nature
The affectations
Used to bolster
The image
For the greater....

Some spurious confine
nor resolutions mew, I so refine
convening measures that my heart could sign
some logic that your own can find ~
their hope again in you ~ remind
my love, I only want you as in love, behind!
I bolster up your feeling in your mind
I stay within you ~ healing, thee as mine!...

triplets in rhyme

Just need two under par 
I've mastered this shot
and my partners will lose.

One is my only son,
and a friend from college.
Fond memory's my muse.

Soar among the Eagles!
I'll let my soul sing,
their spirits to bolster.

I let loose measured stroke.
My eagle's in flight
soaring t'wards a bunker....

They claim my words are rather rude
My ink is refined human sense
My presence will bolster the brood
They claim my words are rather rude
Faults thrive in reed and grasslands dense
Through every gloomy, dampen mood
They claim my words are rather rude
My ink is refined human sense

Smile create
The world so bright
From the rising
To the setting sun.

Smile  makes
The world so round
From north to south
From east to the west. 

Smile of a child
Makes daddy work easier 
An inspiration bolster 
And a happy energy getter. 

Smile to flowers
For ones pleasure 
For every moment cherish 
For lovers golden treasure....

Ode to a pillow

Oh pillow ! Your dexterity astounds me
You bolster the head of the destitute and the deep-pocketed
The hangman and the internee
The blooming and the senescent
The caretaker and the tsar
The analphabetic and the scholar
Yet none could serene sleep savor
Except those with a clear conscience ardor.

Bolster Polster Who Has Holster

What has been required is to bolster,
Someone who is an accurate pollster;
Fully grown;
Job known,
With writing material found in holster.

Jim Horn

I do believe that God gave me a gift
that I should be utilizing and taking
advantage of. Just think of how may
talents are just laying around and 
going to waste....

Quote: I whisper your name to Him because that’s all I can do

I revere and thank you for taking care of our old dad
I can’t fly and be with you;I can’t lend you a helping hand
But my forehead wrinkles when I hear you worried about his reports
And I ask God to bolster your unrelenting strength each moment

tamed twigs moaned
cussing callous clone
sassy sequoia invited
dark dribbles ignited
felon fashion bolster
bounty blitzkrieg fostered

wanky wind whooshes
humming hoisted hymns
nocturnal nature drips

punctured pulses pouting
rusty roots reeling
vying voluptuous drilling

eerie epistle etched's
of the forest.

Agrarian....agriculture
wet and dry affecting bolster
basic grain pre-market commodity
dispersal targets rift uncommonly

Feedstock fodder higher priced
milk,egg,cheese will future thrice
upkeep livestock feel the strain
lack of grain...we'll all feel the pain

Corn,wheat,rice and soybean
hot potato money machine
pass the buck absorb the cost
surcharge tacked as all not lost...

Despair shrugs off its dirty shell
emerging as Enlightenment,
cramped and crumpled she crawls 
off in dazed bewilderment,

as remnants of vile guilt and rage 
plot her demise, (shameless vestige!) 
and residues of spiteful hate 
conspire to take her hostage.

Sitting in her brand new skin
alone Enlightenment is like to die,
till Love, Confidence and Joy conjoin
to bolster her into a Butterfly!...

Last light here
Closure steers


Sad moods touch
Nothing much


Close the door
Empty core


Work day fades
Ending trade


Hard times call
Bolster gall


Touch brings hurts
Messy dirt


Such sad waste
Bitter taste


No one comes
Broken sums


In the end
Dying trends


Work brief pain
Start again


Why not ask
Beyond bask

It is not helpful to think, to ruminate
on things that cannot be re-thought.
The original is pounced upon
by piggy-back thinkers.
Charge and counter-charge,
nothing changes
thoughts engraved in stone remain.
When a brash mind questions,
rats nibble at ancient foundations.
Better to write poetry,
better to lie then bolster a false truth.
A poem can fabricate
love and hate and still be true.
It's not helpful to think too much
about this....

Dawn arrives now
Watch light endow
Our why's and hows 


Shine brightly then
To spur our when
Dear happy friend 


Sun styles fond good
To lift our moods
Warm light our food


Shine brightly thus
In a fine blast
Of love that lasts


Wise is the play
That nature stays
Our Milky Way 


Shine brightly here
To bolster cheer
As warm light steers


Sunny side up
Joy pours full cup
For a big gulp

*Hollow Hosting Feelings - Day 4*

face like pages
seeped'n smirking ink
fostering felon flips
delicate chapters drip
font feigning feasts
meager metamorphosis creep

smiles like ointment:
sturdy substance rent
saucy stench's spell

porous sequoia posture
whooshing fashion bolster
fiery limbs features

delicate gaze digs
hollow hosting feelings.

Lemon seltzer water on the night stand table
next to a vase of nasturtiums
Clouds painted blue on the bedroom ceiling
wood on the floor painted orange.
Ms. Fitzgerald's jazz in the air from her record
skipping from the scratches of use
Water for a bath bubbling steam and seclusion
waiting for it's tired recluse.
Candles caught up in the thoughts of the fireplace
shine up the mirrors with shadows
Home for a moment to catch my breath hollow
to bolster me up for tomorrow......

Fly my heart across the seas,
The dense woods and the highlands 
Faraway that eyes can’t see
My warm heart, nearby you stand  

Far away on the horizon
Nostalgia built up by time 
With mother word’s connection
Great forefathers, we remind

Fly my heart in a soft breeze
Be the shadow of your pace
Take care matters you please
Hang around your loving face

Bolster when you are unwell
Support when you get trouble 
That’s all my heart can tell
My love for you is sizable...
