Survey Poems | Examples


Britannia Rule

As an Englishman's home
is his castle,
I abide in my own abode
part and parcel,
but as I'm always being told,
by the trouble and strife
(Cockney for 'wife'),
how to behave
in my own house,
whenever the rules I waive,
I must ask, I have to say,
"Why am I not Lord
of all that which I survey?"

Premium Member The Phone Survey

'Least likely' times three,
Putting me through difficulty
To persuade me to go away,
Axing with, "Have a nice day..."

So much for a 'Protection Plan'!
That maze through which no one can,
Defeat the 'Crooked Counterplan'!
The 'gods of profit' win again!

(sigh)

'Most likely' times three,
These "gods of profit' turn beastly,
And poison justice everywhere,
Until their profit becomes a snare!

Israel's leaders blind and dumb!
Their nation so far out of plumb.
God sent His prophet, Amos, to say,
Their 'profits' He would drain away!

Despising 'God's Truth' cannot win.
'His Truth' rises to win again.
Jesus Christ is His 'Point Man', 
Look to His 'Protection Plan'!

Premium Member Us Survey of Intentions

I received one of these in the mail today,
and would like to know if you got one too:

Please see enclosed survey for all current and prospective residents of the United States, 
to articulate the fullness of your positive reasons for wishing to remain/relocate within these same United States, 
and for fully disclosing the emptiness of your negative reasons for wishing to remain/relocate.

Thank you so much for your cooperation. 
We will review your application and those demonstrating greatest potential for multicultural strength 
and nurturance of our future economic and political health 
will receive your annual invitation to pay your federal taxes, 
or, for those wishing to relocate, 
to pay your requisite fees and transportation expenses. 

If you do not hear from us for the next four years, 
please do not be surprised or disappointed; 
and please do not bother to call us. 
We are not listening, 
and that continues to be your problem; doesn’t it?

Premium Member Survey of a Happy Life

Survey Of A Happy
life.

The question I was
asking:
The couple answered;
it's Good-Flavorful
and lasting.
It is fun and
uplifting
it's giving and
sacrificing
It is easy to
Identify
if you know the
signs.

Reciprocating,unselfish
It is hushed kisses,
smooth caresses
gentle movements
that induce deep-
gutted moans
it is pillow talk
and long walks-

A blood rush to
cheeks.
it is rocking chairs
and wheel chairs
It's thanking
God for each other -
for the ability
to remain meek.

And for our,
grandchildren
adored.. seeing the
past presented in
the
presence of their
eyes.
Enduring and over-
looking each
failure.
Sharing of favorite
stories for the
Ump-tenth time.

The prayers,the joys
shared, produced the
unity that made
us strong. Strong
enough together to
withstand disasters.
Escaping cracks
and sink holes...

We who know,know
the value of
these...
Also we see the
importance of
laughter.
We knew how to live
-
we knew love then
and shall, in the
hereafter.!


Shoe Survey

I scanned all my shoes with my eyes

What I concluded was no big surprise

        As I recall

        It was me brought them all

They're all my favorites and they're all my size.

Regal Survey

Fearsome feathered beauty hovers high,
Life long mate proudly drafting nigh.

Feeling U Had Survey

what feeling did you get when the darkness came
what feeling did you get when you received your first check to claim
what feeling did you get when you knew someone who died 
what feeling did you get when you were the reason someone cried
what feeling did get when you accomplished your long term goal
what feeling did you get when your companion crushed your soul
what feeling did you get when you experienced a perfect day
what feeling did you get when you didn’t have the words to say
what feeling did you get when you wrote a masterpiece
what feeling did you get when you when you realized there was no more peace

Silly Survey

For those kind enough to participate, a silly survey I'll relate;
1)Your 10 favorite movies
2) the 3 funniest to you
3) the 3 saddest to you
4) the 3 weirdest
5) the 3 most profound to you
6) the 3 most repulsive to you

This could be interesting.  I'll compile and publish results in a week,
regards, tom

The Survey

What have you made of life?
What has life made of you?
That silver spoon you were born with,
Is it tarnished or good as new?

Did you use it to feed another,
Someone hungry and down and out?
Was the path you trod always level?
Did you ever know pain or doubt?

What has life made of you?
What have you made of life?
You were a have-not at your birth.
Was all the rest struggle and strife?

Did adversity harden or soften you?
Was your journey a sorrowful one,
Or filled with such loveliness and joy
You regret it will soon be done?

Have you been mostly friend or enemy?
Were you blessing or were you curse,
Or both, or neither?  Because of you,
Is life better, the same, or worse?
