Short Brawn Poems

Finale
Streams of tears falling;
His crepuscular brawn years,
Embracing his end....

of that fine day,
mornings magnificent brawn
and beautiful bay,
whose skylines soon would yawn,
a break of dawn...

Men don’t cry
not in pain
not in rain

Men are strong
they hold on
they have brawn

Just one time
a man tear
a love fear...

Found fossils render knowledge
Brawn returns to dust

Cute as can be
Always intelligent
Ready to learn
Strong in spirit and brawn
Only son
Needs to express himself

Paroxysm of the pupil
   Blind eye opens to dawn
Brightness quadruples
   Crimson-tangerine brawn

You stand alone, so full of brawn
Poise you have, that of a sitter
You stand steadfast, until the dawn
That weapon you wield, will always glitter
Your spirits remain high, never bitter....

Used to be a wall-flower when I was young
Look at me now, noted for much doo-doo I've flung
But still a gentle soul
A yummy casserole
Of brawn and mushy stuff, it's my mother tongue...

Dad was a man of good virture.
He always knew what best to do.
He was handsome, he had some brawn.
He showed us respect, and much care.
He listened to our problems there.
He was the hero we leaned on....

Why is it Peeping Tom and not Peeping Jack
An honor to be called Peeping instead of Cracker Jack
My Brit friend Tom
Though he has more brawn
I care not, I peep through other peoples' peepers...

Believe it or not, I was a wall-flower when I was young
Look at me now, noted for much doo-doo I do flung
But I'm still a gentle soul

I once knew a boy,
Full of courage and brawn,
Afraid-
Of nothing,
He fell into a trap,
Within his mind,
He found his princess,
Not me of course,
Rather an honorable girl,
She waits for him,
Hundreds of miles away....

Nicotine drips from his flesh,
Brawn tainted by addiction cries
Emotions enmesh—
Nicotine drips from his flesh,
With tobacco laden breath
The crinkle of burning paper dies 
Nicotine drips from his flesh—
Tissue, tainted by addiction cries...

A scholarly man of numbers,
when confronted said, “Chance be gone!
He who believes the lie slumbers.”
A scholarly man of numbers
challenges the mind that lumbers.
“Probability is the brawn!”
A scholarly man of numbers,
when confronted said “Chance be gone!”...

A-n ant though small has brains, 
M-en on one hand have brawny arms; 
E-ven if men have big muscles
L-ots of them little ant harms.

B-eautiful lady likes shrewdness, 
R-ecognizing sense and reason; 
O-n twenty-third September, 
N-ice to prefer brains over brawn....

big and badass mammal
bluff and warlike charges
bold most untouchable
brave dominant creatures
brawn and fierce the Polar
based predators on earth
baby cubs lovable

Fight me,
I propose a challenge,
A duel of sorts,
I will triumph,
Fair warning,
I will scale that mountain,
Leaving you and your cronies,
In the tundra.

I will force your fall,
I will battle your brains and your brawn,
And succeed.

I will wash your bleeding core,
When I defeat you....

Sunbeams scatter all the waves back
The ruling embers of might and brawn

The still post of time issues it's wail
Till merely mirage and immortal eyes
Those waves only now do tell.

Yet I myself hold such a gaze
Which no one, no matter how high
Can steal it's reality from behind mine eye!...

Where have all the gentlemen gone?
Worldly thoughts have led them astray –
Desiring neither love nor brawn.
Where? Have all the gentlemen gone?
Tho’ my days are short and nights are long –
I hold my breath, take note and pray:
Where have all the gentlemen gone?
Worldly thoughts have led them astray....

We’re not all blessed
with smarts and skills
some of us
have got the looks
but not the brains
some of us
have got the brawn
but not the balls

It’s not easy
but somehow
we have to
find a way
to all get along
to keep our cool
and hold our tongue

Beach Boys

Male, wise virgin sly.
within their pubic-awkward
brawn, they testify
to ultimate wry-caricatured
innocence of flesh.

The body? Yes. But strutting chaste
and mirror brave--enough 
for mirror bluff.
None dares to risk
(or daring, could but hate)

A dim-lit face-to-face
With female, wantflesh Odalisque....

Blue eyes, brown eyes, dark hair and light
Beauty and brawn, hours stolen from night
Moon dance, one chance, nibbles to ears
Hot breath of passion, words the heart hears
Gold rings, pipe dreams, whispers of love
Fumbling fingers, push comes to shove
Lips upon lips, seasons of rhymes
Heart for a heart, forever entwined

Robins are a delight to see
When winter snow is almost gone
To see them chirp and bounce with glee
And hear songbirds singing at dawn

An eagle soars, mighty and brawn
Flying, circling the sky so free
Feeders full, hummingbirds are drawn
Bird watching is joyous to me

Video kitties are all the rage
Kittens tinkling the ivories
  on a hand-held stage

I glance at the screen
can't believe what I see
Cutest kitten ever
  decorating a X-mas tree

I know that kittens favor
  brains over brawn
But have you ever viewed
  fifteen kitties yawn?

Three more lines, and this'd be a sonnet ~
  So, I'll 'bow-wowt' early, with a kitty in a bonnet...
