Short Resented Poems

There was a young man named McAvity
Who resented that old Law of Gravity
He heeded a rumor 
That values good humor
And now he is lifted by Levity....

Frost is a fashionable folkway
Rather resented by Reason.
Offish, often obtuse
Snippy, snooty, sometimes sour
Terse,  temperamental

Hoping for attention, it’s a game she played
Resented by her grandfather, all he knew was shame
She was lonely, broken, and bruised -
Comparable to rotten fruit;
She was always picked over, left to rot in that shame too...

I once knew a frightful witch named Zelda
She resented bitterly her Dada
   There was no denying
   No use even trying
All good looks went to Sis Esmeralda

Unfortunately no brew charm or spell
Could possibly make Zelda look swell ~

Besides the lies
I accepted it

Besides the remorse
I encourage it

Besides the wickedness
I praised it

Besides the pain
I endured it

Besides the beatings
I wanted it

Besides the love
I resented it

Besides the love
I required it

Besides the joy
I buried it

Besides the happiness
I cut it

Besides the life
I ended it...

I gave my friend a car.
She complained it was not a good one.

I paid her rent for a year.
She resented me for that.

I gave her some clothes.
She threw them out, disgusted they did not have designer labels.

I paid for her dinners when we went out
Because she never brought her wallet.

I paid until she angrily dumped me
Because I had run out of money....

Time heals most things,
but will it heal our friendship?
I don't know how,
but we drifted apart,
it seems that as i moved on,
You resented that, or at least, 
I think you did.
It was awful, what I went through.
After you decided that our friendship was threw.
I weeped and cried,
just about had a breakdown.
All I wanted was a relationship,
and a friendship that would,
Last a lifetime....

She was a cartoon, but he fell in love with her any way.
I wish I knew her name! He confided to his grandmother.
She is a cartoon! His grandmother replied, she does not have a name!
It hurt her feelings, so she disappeared, never to grace his computer again.
He resented his grandmother for this faux pas for the rest of his life.
Holding a grudge because she never came back.
Not even in his dreams....

I was liked but not loved, 
For not believing in god, 
For not accepting the basics, 
Of his existence baud. 

All at school resented me, 
But claimed to talk to me sometimes, not often, 
But I know love means relating, 
That love means conversation. 

I did have a best friend, 
And boy friends whom I played with, 
But I didn’t feel included in the circle, 
Of the buds of tomorrow’s world, the pith....

you can x-ray me if you want
you will see the truth
i will rip out my guts and pull out every tooth
if i lose your friendship, then i have nothing at all
i have promoted you to platinum golden diamond
the impact of your inspiration i will flaunt
when the results are presented,
you will see that you were never resented
it was actually a form of precreation
 to honor you and express my full and total appreciation...

M aking their way from nothing
O pening their hearts for others
U sing what they have on hand
N ature seems to draw them in
T ime keeps them always alert
A mazing grace is a part of church
I nner peace comes from hope
N ever giving up on a Holy God

P recious people in their souls
E very one knows everyone 
O ver the hill they send love
P resented by caring and kindess
L ove that adores with serene joy
E veryone here loves the mountains...

Betrayal

While sending out this email
Surely felt a sense of betrayal
From those in America who live
And find them hard to forgive
What will the future entail.

As a retired veteran Trump is a slap in the face.
Wonder how Captain Khan's parents are accepting
all of this

May Be Resented

If by no one was I consented
Catch disease, may be prevented
To ballot box had proceeded
By Hillary was badly needed
Gave up and Trump relented.
