Star Trek officer Mr. Spock
simply couldn't find his sock
which he had just overlooked
but don't tell Bones Spock's goose was cooked!

Son of Eros, where are you?
I feel I've been overlooked
Arrows speeding all around
Never one for me
Written for the Cupid contest
one spends their whole life looking for a cause but have overlooked their ~self

Deprived pilgrim wives ruminated
On ways to get hubbies elated:
After Thanksgiving chow
Ogling men hollered “wow!”
As wet-shirted women they rated.
I'm seeing into the future
I'm that ugly duckling that gets overlooked
One day I'll surprise everyone

Your hesitancy
is observed yet overlooked,
since love in your heart’s not bloomed.
Perhaps it’s a test,
as of our soul agreement,
which we merely here enact?
Appearance only
Seems to matter
Outer aspects
Are placed at
Greater value
By society
Internal aspects
Are overlooked
And ignored by
Society as a whole
He had lots of faults
She loved him with her full heart
Overlooked them all
This surprised and amazed him
He rapidly changed
Becoming the man she saw
Stepping into his best self
older is not always wiser
a saying proven wrong many times
I have met many wise children
they recognize the power of love
whereas dementia is often overlooked in elders who were never wise
Somewhere in Time
hidden in rhyme
I seek the love I once known
Beyond my reach
under a foreign beach
I found a love that had come and gone
Back again
a forgotten friend
overlooked and withdrawn
Sky tears fill a calm heart with memories
Crystal clear images ripple on the lake
Sentiments condense along the river of time
Overlooked and left behind—
Still,
finding their way back to the sea.
in verdant grasslands
rusted trucks rest, overlooked~
all that is still deer

Peanut butter, Jack’s favorite cuisine
‘Til he ate a sandwich that turned him green
Jack overlooked one thing
That gave his sandwich ‘zing’
Pea was spelled ‘Pee’ ~ smelled like a latrine
Day after day,
The pawn keeps on moving
Surrounded by the real action
Unnoticed, but still progressing
For though so easily overlooked
The pawn slugs on
And soon enough
The pawn is no longer a pawn
…But a queen

Conditioning
Is what we all
Carry along with us..
All of those boundaries
And attitudes toward
What confines and frees..
Then to discover..or not
That Freedom is overlooked
In our life as lived...
‘Oft overlooked is the noble foot.
But please let me in, my 2 cents, put.
For, granted, it is so often, took.
Homely and crooked, though it may look,
still gets you there, that most noble foot.

Speaking of Christmas dinner
and not to be overlooked
some say it's a winner
when your goose is cooked
but now let's talk turkey
and by hook or by crook
let me set things straight
it's gobble-gobbledegook
As crisp or tart, she favors my cookbooks
Perfect dessert whether October or June
Pumpkin's cousin, come autumn is overlooked
Luckily, any month, week or afternoon
Every season, the sweet apple fills my spoon

Watch out for the bus, Gus.
Attention all drivers of a bus,
We have important safety matters to discuss.
This week watch out for those on foot,
They can not be overlooked.
Stay observant and alert,
And no one will get hurt.

Soft needles shapely
Perfection was overlooked
Simply adorned_star
(The topic is tree)
When dawns your own world, when
From another's blank horizon
Rises your brother's habitation
Can it be overlooked then?
Stretching with the sympathies
Out from coldness of craters
Approached are the Maker's
Fixed sensibilities.
words that pierce like a sharpened edge
the pen has no regret
old pain incessant we must dredge
if not forgive, forget?
but the power of a simple verse
overlooked by the creator
has made the past in present worse
and lesser pain now greater
To the forgotten
your work is silence
your contributions unnoticed
You are seen everyday
but you are invisible
passing through the world
most of it does not know you
Many don't realize your worth
you go through each day
being overlooked
