Short Try It On Poems

A wonderful gift
You can give away,
Pass along, even to
Strangers, yet 
The essence remains
With you.
Always welcomed,
One size fitting all.
Try it on...
Wear it for 
A while,
You will like it!...

my love unworn
you try it on
looking at yourself
in the mirror
turning around
to see how it fits
not liking the look
you take it off
and toss it
on the floor
and continue shopping
for a different size...

So you’ve got a new head, try it on for size.
It’s a brand new day, time to open up your eyes.
Think you’ve seen it all before, you’re in for a surprise.
Don’t believe in everything, or fill your head with lies....

You work all your life
Trying to avoid another's knife
For they will try it on
And then be gone

To scheme and to plan
To make them grand
But just telling the truth
And they will retreat saying 'struth!

have you seen the diamond dream bra?
You will not be allowed to try it on.
It was created by Harry Winston in 1997.
Made by Victoria Secret
a forty-two carat pearl-shaped flawless diamond in the center
with one hundred diamonds on each side.
1997 price was three million dollars.
Worth much more today....

if sanity was a new dress, 
i would buy it for you
you would try it on,
and i would cherish the pleasure of your company
i would buy you matching heels
perhaps a necklace and two bracelets
i would tell you how beautiful you looked....just so I can see you smile
then i would brush my lips against yours and whisper in your ear a soft, but sincere....
Thank You...

The Way You Sing My Song
David J Walker

I remember falling in love with a song
And then searched for someone to
Try it on

While you were singing the words
Of your hearts desire 

The fire
		The fire 

The words of arrant desire

If I write another love poem 
It will have to be 
an apology 

for not believing 
someone could love me  
the way you sing my song...

I’m adjusting fixed positions
On opinions and deductions
From now on breathing other airs
I have a stack of fresh instructions

I let go of once held handle bars
Veering off from straight line steering
Riding curves requiring nerves
Whilst watching stances disappearing

Chancers wait to try it on
Consider risk-maintaining stakes
Ask what can we afford to lose
Whilst still expecting lucky breaks...

You in there
Don t ever hide
at cost of fighting through this,
don t prefer the comforting bed side.

Day by day don t enter into that shell,
To catch up try breaking the routine
 you have unconsciously set.
After all your smile is just not out to fake
It surely has the power of goodness
Try it on You for goodness sake.

Letting it engulf you completely
while you wait for someone of trust
My dear you are the break through
Spirit of fighting back in you first is a must....

Everything’s been said before;
The goal’s to find a way
To tailor those familiar thoughts
To fit beneath your sway.

You choose a pattern and a swatch
Of fabric that appeals,
Then cut and stitch until, at last,
Your feelings it reveals.

Along the way, you change a word
Or rearrange a phrase,
Then try it on, assessing with
A slightly biased gaze.

When done, you snip the final thread
And put it on display,
Content to know you’ve said exactly
What you meant to say.
