Short Get The Hang Poems

Get The Hang of Things


Once of things will finally get the hang,
Maybe you might start  learning slang;
Knowing for sure,
And can endure;
Appear that you do belong to the gang.

To feel superb,
use a verb in
hyperboles!




I teach English/Writing classes at the high school level.  Am doing poetry in 3 classes right now and decided to try a new style.  Than-Bauk is kind of fun once you get the hang of it. One class really got into it and we wrote 6 poems in less than 30 minutes! Love it when the muse hits!!!...

I think love is a flare 
We were beautiful and you were there
I wonder how much I can loose to you 
The sun shined for the sake of our nakedness
Holding each other unto every ounce of space
And I thought you'd become bitter but only strength led you
Take your sword and bite through the edge of it
Maybe you'll get the hang of it 
Cause I love the dark and you are the dark...

Love one another do
not stutter, say it
loud and say it proud.
Be renowned for love.

Let Lord Jesus pronounce
our words. The word is
true, the message need
not be confused. 

Lord Jesus is  in our hearts,
the message is “love one
another” love your neighbour,
show love to a complete
stranger.

Get the hang of this, even with 
the slips and trips and life will be bliss....

Listen to poem:

Every day I thread my way
along high wire tightrope,
strung between: 
promise and doubt;
resolve and quit;
hold on and fall off;
with a safety net set out below to catch me. 
But, try as I must, 
I can't get the hang of it.
I can't get to the other side,
without falling into the net.
The task is too taunting, 
taut and daunting, 
even when I use a balance pole.
So Here's the Rub!
Perchance to Dream!
Scrub the Net!...

I love a meal with chopsticks – 
It’s elegant and fun.
I’m slowly eating, bit by bit,
When forkers are all done.

Each morsel’s daintily procured
And lifted to one’s lips;
Some concentration’s needed
So the food stays in its grips.

But once you get the hang of it,
You’ll dine with new delight,
A feeling of accomplishment
In every single bite.

Some people find it challenging,
But everybody should
Discover just how pleasant
It could be to eat with wood!...

I got a hudl for Christmas
And I don't know what to do
Its full of little gadgets
I haven't got a clue.

There's Facebook and there's Google
There's YouTube Twitter too
When I try and find one
I end up in a stew.

I tried to write a message
But kept pressing the wrong key
My family say its easy
Ah but they're not me.

I do like my little hudl though
I'm sure I will be fine
One day I will get the hang of it
But its going to take some time....

never hanging up
always being there
never will be used to it
welcome mat still shining

never hanging up
encouraging words forever endless
never will be comfortable with it
taking her coat anyway

never hanging up
eyes never rolling either way
never will get the hang of it
preparing her favorite adult beverage still

never hanging up
platonic chemistry intact
never will come close to loosening up
still cuts her cell phone off for the duration...
