Short Zingy Poems

pizzazz:
a zingy term
that implies flamboyance,
zeal and some zoo like behavior.  
flair-up!...

Orange
Sizzling, colorful
Zingy, zesty, zippy
Happy, upbeat, drab, plain
Calming, blending, neutralizing
Tree-like, blah

On the road in hungry mode, 
Golden arches call! 
Stomach immensely howling, 
“Big Mac” has attacked.
Hamburger and cheese 
Zingy sauce to please, 
Gulp it down!
Plump!

Silver streaks of zingy songbirds 
and choral trills.

Orioles in Scarlet -
gorgeous carolers of
dawn canzonet with a sapphire score.

Rich viol spells of melodic melody
they engulf my twisted skysill
featuring lavender gold and
honeyed agate spring odes
silky lilac skylight accents....

Tonight I thought about some people I met.
With the one, I even never really have met.
But they, all enlightened my life
With their rainbow thoughts,
Zingy personality and words of wisdom.
They are the ones
Can make my heart beat faster,
Can make me smile,
And surprised.
You, all will stay like precious butterflies
Before my eyes....

Waiting
For the green show
When flowers blossom bright
And young fauna are born to play
Life glows afresh with zingy zest, sun shines
Azure sky is clear, crisp breeze blows
Blooms sway in a spring dance
Sprightly spirit
Waiting

Listen to poem:

Ballads and candles of lyrical light
in stemmed yearning

breezes of ethereal pearl

shimmering translucence 
in a velvety damask

A celestial serenade ~
glittering gold, a halo of airy haze
An ostentatious cynosure, a wispy elixir

Calcite talismans and ethereal melody.
The cosmos is in harmony

zingy zest blasts in sapphirelike gaze
A flow dashed over the scary abyss.
an emollient erstwhile fugacious lyric...

My tongue flaunts a fur-trimmed coat
of smoldering, ginger-scented rhinestones,
bragging and boasting
about how fashionable it chooses to be
when a Chime ventures
into the dank, cavernous throne room.
Gilded lions guard the gate,
cowering upon beholding those decadent,
syrupy, muted Chimes.
Zingy, flashy, and so trendy.
Glowing like glowworms,
they make music in my mouth
with a percussion section of ginger gold
that spits sparks of regret....

We want to be quirky, zingy, weird, and crazy
Because interesting, exciting and enthusiastic sells.
We want to be someone who is noticed or applauded.
If we cannot have that, can we at least have one-of-a-kind?

We want to be exasperating, conniving, mystical, and ethereal.
Mystery surrounding us in a swirling orange cloud of joyous confusion.
We are the world's women; we will have to be plain soon enough.
After our children arrive, and we try to fit into society so they will too....
