If you kiss heart
None miss silence

The greatest mountain screams down
Mighty is its screeching yell
Words sojourn verbose alike
Pushed its voice alive

Bubbly verbose bee had so much to say.
Ideas spilled out every which way
He was a motormouth back in the day
Fifty years later, he still has his say...

There once was a Martian from Phobos
When he spoke he was really verbose
He chattered away
Yes, day after day
Till, he drove the whole moon comatose!...

Bellicose and Verbose 

Trump has been known to be bellicose,
And at same time also very verbose;
Sad affairs;
Never cares;
While feeling like we may be morose.

Another Dose of Trump

Of Trump we experienced another dose,
Who is a loud mouth  and very verbose;
Another tear;
Pain in rear,
And guaranteed that he has been gross.

Alas, my wife, your verbose superfluity
Displays an obstinate incongruity
It's just word play hide and seek
Be succinct when you speak
Ok—you're a pompous ass in perpetuity!

Trump Is Gross

There is no doubt Trump is gross
Around waist has much adipose
Small hands and lips that pucker
And definitely is a dumb clucker
Actually thinks that he is verbose.

Always Suspicious About

We have always been suspicious of AXIOS;
Have spread many rumors and are verbose;
Breaking rules;
Draining pools (And swamps),
And like Trump we wish would die a dross.

Judging by his muteness, he is sick,
Sickly fallible;
Yet by his playing the verbose
The man gets no better;
He is sick, no matter what he does,
No matter how he looks today;
All of them are sick, except me!...

Vocabulary is
 Vital to all language
 Voiced or when written down
 Verbosity can be
 Very annoying in
 Various settings in
 Verbose conversations

   wordy, verbose, prolix,
   chatty, jejune, digressive,
   tedious, long-winded, repetitive,
   elaborate, grandiloquent, loquacious,
   pretentious, comprehensive, circumlocutory

Now he is:
   pithy...

Shout, scream out!
No! Feel the voice
Verbose lyric, hyperbole!
No! Feel the words of song
Truly feel the depth with no wrong
Melt the berg of grief among
the happiness group and belong
a cheerful kingdom

I sat next to the Duchess at tea.
It was worse than I thought would be.
A  bee sat on her nose
The Duchess turn'd verbose
When it stung her right there but not me.

Treat trash as it deserves
with dexterity and cleanness
with the nobility of those who served us...
Trash is also rich
in recycling done well...
Don't treat it worthless trash
don't be sloppy verbose
Waste can and should be reused
there is something luxurious in trash....!...

Listen to poem:

Baby Chantal,
giving her a lady poison 
by her name...
Dad gets glimpse
of high heels running
out of his future

He sees her at twenty
in his mind with verbose lipstick
with a long name he can't pronounce,
and mouths he is sorry
for calling her Chantal

Emotional me
is out from my verbose head
like a winter flower with
petals, so much like
hankies of a sleepless god,
to wave in such elegance
my charm over you,
again and again, ‘til your
smile, left to death by the strides
of your rococo
lover, is awakened and
becomes my choka poem...

A Woman
(a limerick)
By Franklin Price
10/22/2015

A woman I know from Vermont
Would Facebook grammatically haunt
Her critiques quite verbose
Errors smelled with her nose
Tell me I'm wrong she would gleefully taunt

(I know verbose and nose don't rhyme – you'll just have to live with it)...

Verbose word
among deaf...
brilliant gesticulator
among blind...
wobbly loser
in lonely races,
  harmless digger
from the deep void...
you have a fast hand
inside the fatal night,
you have a fleeting gesture
and an atrocious glow...!
you have no heroism
in the nameless pallor
of all your acts... !...

Does your writing lack power, 
 is it merely verbose,
as you labor line to line

Is the message red meat
or a vegan’s delight,
its essence so defined

Each word as an arrow
that strikes for the heart,
its tip to preordain

The strength of the meaning
abandoning all
—when destined to explain

(Dreamsleep: January, 2022)...

the eyes and sights,
the little lips,
the face
wanna tell something
noiseless civilly

our boastful
verbose words
shut these all beautiful
make mute these all

and we the beastly inhuman
behave everywhere as unruly tyrant deaf

oh
for our impertinent dazzling happiness
liking this all in burning fire of sorrow

New reverend espouses ridiculously flowery verbose sermons 
Congregation divides several times over the next few months
I stay, imagining they will get better, more down-to-earth, honest.
Pretty soon there are only two of us left.
We give each other shrugs and glances.
He does not ask for help.
So we remain silent.
Contributing to his failure....

Empirical, Actual and Real

Trump never heard of  anything empirical;
He is very verbose about it and hysterical;
Well defined;
Not his mind,
And missing in vocabulary is actual and real.

Jim Horn

I think all that Trump is doing is providing
a tinsey iddy bitty more information from
his tinsey iddy bitty brain for Saturday Night 
Live....
