bending my mind around his words, makes me feel like a contortionist
For Bobby May’s contest “Who Flips Your Trolley?”
Theoore Robinson ie so young
perhap s why he remains unsung
He found the eat coast too bright
but it gave hi style visual delight
Edwin Arlington Robinson of Maine
with verse was to find fame
His 'Children of the Nigh'
achieving a Pulitzer Prize to his delight
Jackie Robinson
Broke the color barrier
Number 42 first ever retired
Lead the way for so many black athletes
Honor this great man today
The Squirrel In Winter
by Merlynda Robinson
Winter’s russet lad.
The cheeky schoolboy, Seeking
Autumn’s lost homework.

I can hear what Jackie Robinson's mother
is saying right now. "Batter up, even when
I am making biscuits so that I can be baking
them."
She is 100 today.

call me Robinson Crusoe
steer me toward my own island
in the Pacific,
let me be myself
one with nature
let me enjoy her balmy ideas
release me to summer
April 15th was Jackie Robinson Day
My boyhood hero who led the way
Allowing those since
To follow his prints
This spirited man, a pioneer he did play
Well howdy doody my name is Jack
Isn't much history this old dude lacks
Even Jackie Robinson
Dad and I saw game one
First black player ever to get untracked
It's almost time for that grand old game
DiMaggio, Mantle, Robinson, some names
To bring back joy
When I was a boy
Adoration for these heroes is still aflame
English journalist, Daniel Defoe,
was most famous for his novel Robinson Crusoe.
The whole idea of novels it’s said that he conceived,
and he wasn’t afraid to write on anything he believed.
Half-drowned from another cloudburst
His life seemed to be at its worst
He opened his eyes
And with great surprise
Robinson Crusoe said it first!
*TGIF=Thank God its Friday
Fast as you can say ‘Jack Robinson’
Up pops another rookie phenom
But as April heroics fade
to June swoons
Came the dog days of August
extinguished ~ the honeymoon

Mr. Robinson
debates career paths above:
sanctuary found in sounds of silence
For Chris's "Sanctuary" contest. Based on the film "The Graduate."
Inner voice speaks
I dare not push her away
For I have been schooled
Warning Will Robinson!
Not a trick
Not a joke
Absolutely real
My internal voice
Saving me heartache
Keeping me alive
I dare not push her away
Growing up in Montreal, there were many great stars
Loud cheers for the Royals were heard from the local bars
The greatest of them all
Jackie Robinson stood tall
Jackie's memory remains always in our hearts
The Baltimore oriole sports an orange coat,
But I haven't seen one; to L.A., they're remote.
Their rich whistling song is a sweet herald of spring.
Ones like Frank Robinson have a great home run swing.

This guy's been a baseball fanatic since I was ten
Jackie Robinson was my hero, first man of colour back then
History in the making
He was shaking' and baking'
Most teams weren't accepting but my Montreal Royals were... amen!
The incomparable Jackie Robinson
who wore "42" rose to prominence and...
broke the Major League Baseball color barrier
In 1947, and had a 10-year All-Star career

the great You Tube purge
con tinues
free speech and expression
are being eradicated
2 of the banned You Tubers are
Tommy Robinson and Alex Jones
but there still remains
a certain individual
by the name of David Icke
does that make him payed opposition
is Mr Icke a fraud?
Shine at the centre of all of our hearts
No longer together but never apart
May your love fill us up at each new day start
Til we too, sleep the sleep of angels
Written as an additional 4th verse to Greta Robinson's beautiful poem 'Shine' that you can find here on Poetry Soup.
Smokey Robinson
Liquid tenor voice
Poetic lyrics created
Through a life of sadness,
Talent remains
Mother encouraged her boy
to be greatness in song!
I saw a special on Smokey Robinson and it inspired this poem. He was a talented musician
and song writer. Smokey is a product of the detroit car industry boom.
“Plastics”, is the word the man said
To Ben who just graduated from college,
At his parent’s party that was so dead.
“Plastics”, is the word the man said,
As he floated off in the pool instead,
Soon to enjoy Mrs. Robinson carnal knowledge.
“Plastics”, is the word the man said
To Ben who just graduated from college.
