Short Up And Coming Poems

First days are weightless,
Going up and coming down,
Rollercoaster glide....

I dream bigger than the tallest skyscraper
"They say I'm up and coming like I'm f***ing in an elevator"...

Life is going up and down 
Speeding up and coming to a stop 
Hitting a bump and blowing a tire
How do you make it all stop? 
I just wish it could all stay up
Without all the pain...

I wish the best to you,

   And to those that you hold dear;

      And in everything you do,

         In the up and coming year,

            I hope it’s filled with cheer.



Happy New Year Contest - Written 12/30/11...

Many are her faces
          Wry, sly, a twinkle in her eye
        Gregarious, oft-times hilarious
          Not easily intimidated, yet shy...

        Serious, without dreariness
          Considerate, deliberate, AI-literate
        Caring, sharing, even a tad daring
           Her pronouns ~ Me, myself, and I...

There was a man:

He Rob the bank

And stole the cash

He shot a tank

And off he dash.

Across the street 

And Into the town

He ran bare feet

Like a funny clown ??

The BBC never saw his face

The radio house never heard his voice

The papers had a blank space

The witness were all false.

Up and coming

I wrote with pen

Now everyone is asking

Who wrote this poem....

EarthTribe justice She's the One
to give a call
for a whole lotta' fun!

Social justice She is One
if She can't do it
EcoPassion can.

Eco-Echo he's our Groom
born of not-not EcoWomb,
and He can't do without Her;
BeLoved's up and coming 
Community.

EgoEco echoing One
if They can't do it
not-not PolyCultural can.

Peace with JustUs
they Be One
so give Earth a call
for this whole lotta' fun....

Got lost in a beautiful day 
one of those days just
glad to be alive
to feel the warmth of the sun filled sky
the sunny breeze buzzing by
sparkling cloudless blues 
bursting above and beyond
glint of greens
up-and-coming
energized by an infinite universe
a sense of airy amazement with nature
chirping and changing
crystal clear
fresh and free 
picture perfect
hope
where nothing will ever be the same....

Weird things make me happy
The man who talks more with his hand than mouth
The child walking a broken wall
as if upon a tightrope
The puddle spray that reddens the suited business man
The rebel because
The universe flaws
the he that follows the haws
The intertwined fingers of blackened trees
lost within the blanketed darkness
Softened showers simper under summer sprays
Mountain meld with midnight's melancholy moans
Up and coming comeuppance
Karma shows it face...

An online date inquired,
Via text, of my good friend,
If she indulged in what’s become
An up-and-coming trend.

He had to know, he claimed,
‘Cause her retort could break the deal,
If she had shaved “down there,” 
Which would diminish her appeal.

To say this question threw her
Is to minimize the truth,
For how could someone better prove
That he is so uncouth?

My friend has crossed him off her list
For how he did behave,
Preventing what might have become
An awfully close shave!...

Dead leaves lay upon my lawn
Barren trees from Autumns dawn
I look outside at what went on
Another Summer come and gone

Gloomy skies of cloudy gray
Aching bones from falling rain
Discontent with seasons change
I think I'll stay inside today

Turn the thermostat on high
Ok, maybe sixty five
Just enough to stay alive
And somehow, maybe, just survive

Water drips from houses eaves
Inundating fallen leaves
Has me longing for reprieve
From up and coming Winter siege
