Short Cockles Poems

Sand laden waves

Pound rich seaweed crusted rocks

Cockles dig deeper...

In a cold world you warm the cockles of my heart, honey.

Heidie, my dear....
Your "cockles" are,
in fact near...
Your "druthers"
Where they just may be,
Grey's Anatomy you
must see......

Autumn's quite colourful but I'm partial to warm
Like the cockles of my heart, need sweat beads to form
I'm a happy old geezer
Cold temps cause me seizures
Living naked at the equator but watching out for thorns...

Fainte brethe of thine, so sweete and pure, that falleth on my breste
Arouseth love within my hearte that beateth in my cheste
And when thine loving handes caress the cockles of my hearte
Makes angells danceth in my soule for we shall never parte...

With candyfloss and sticks of rock
Funfair rides made to shock.

Roller coaster big fast rides
All made to hide your eyes

The carousel and kiddies swings
Hoopla darts and all those things

Sandy beach and cockles too
These are the things I loved to do...

Cockles and Mussels In Brussels

The women wore trusses after having tussles;
They were embarrassed thinking that Brussels;
Did survive;
Came alive,
Only city that can serve cockles with mussels.
(Actually it was London fair city.)

Your eyes light my world
touch the cockles of my heart
pulse me with desire.

Your touch makes me want
like a thirst in a desert
quench me with thy lips.

Your lingering scent
Like a spring scented blossom
draws me closer, awwww.

Listen to poem:

Down under the sea it's frolic time free.
Fiddler crabs play jigs, lolling, lively lilts.
Cockles flap up to clang their symbols with glee.
Angelfish, halos askew, sing in kilts.
Octopuses play jazz in harmony.
Shrimps a dancing, rocking attune on stilts.
Anemones tentacles wave in surge,
as tide and current roll rhythms and submerge....

Listen to poem:

The best thing about waking up
is not the coffee in our cup
warming the cockles
I'd impart
from the bottom of our heart
it's knowing we survived
to see another day arrived
no matter what may come our way
as being late
when we're done and gone
is far too harsh to contemplate
so smell the flavour
savour the roast
and of our time here on earth
before we're toast
let's not forget to make the most

For starters I'll order the tripe
Wrapped in dark blue plums, just ripe
Painted with a bright red-white stripe
Dabbed with green spots from icing-bag pipe

Next, I'll have the fish, grilled just right
Flambéed with whiskey set alight
On a bed of cockles, shut up tight
Wrapped in seaweed. What a sight!

For sweets I'd like the chocolate mousse
With eggs, cream and bitter lime juice
All gooey and creamy, sure to seduce
My cravings for sugar and a cup of Seuss...

Once pierced by Cupid's arrow,
love's the only thing you feel.
For Hope banishes all pain
to the fringes of real.

As euphoria floods in,
sparks spontaneously start.
And a warm sensation stirs;
in the cockles of your heart.

Forged upon desire's anvil;
fantasies burn hot as coal.
And tides of hope surge and ebb;
in a lonely heart and soul.

Freed by the passage of time;
anxieties drift away.
And though love levies a toll,
it's one that hearts gladly pay....

Nothing is what I feel 
Empty was my world 
I painted a picture, but it was blank 
Blank imaginations, blank feelings
Dark and wild place I was in
No one, nothing nobody ever heard me
Skies were so near, could count the stars 
The moon tried to smile but blood covered it
Anger creped in, frustrations and greed
Tried ease the pain but I eased my self
Empty and Emptier I felt 
Bins couldn't be Emptier 
Gongs couldn't cockles than I was
Evil brought the sunshine but felt NOTHING...
