Tootles Poems | Examples


Premium MemberGood night 2

Great night to sleep tight
Onyx sky looking at stars
Owls hoot a piercing cry
Did he just call sweetheart 

Now I lay me down to sleep
I pray that I wake up
Good night poet or good morning 
Hope you get plenty love

Premium MemberSpotting a Sasquatch

It is a Sasquatch said a child who has seen several I know.
It was hairy and tall, lumbering along in the deep snow.
Moving faster than most of us who are wearing snowshoes.
Is there ever a pair? Do we ever see them in two’s?

It’s an ape, probably has run off from the zoo, I bet.
Said my far-sighted neighbor, Mrs. Tootles McRett.
We did not know what it was but did not run after it either.
We are smarter than that said my cousin, Lordy McTeter.

Time

Time


Do you know the rules of time? 
Well, it will take a while
Please wait for me to start
11:59 separates day from night 
Midnight is morning with 
A gray moon in the black sky
And afternoon start at 12:01 pm

Every second counts 
All 60 of them especially when you say 
“I’ll just be a minute” 
And all 1440 of them in the 24 hour day 

Especially on your alarm
That goes off just in time for you to wake up on time 
To make breakfast 
Shower or bathe
And to get dressed
Take your phone
Your keys 
Your wallet 
And your extra coffee
To start the day

If you’re late
You can’t do anything about it
Don’t let it get to your head
You’ll look like a fool
Especially on a stormy day

Every early bird has woken up late 
I know you’re not a bird
You get the idea
Or do you?

Will you lend me some time 
to explain it 
Because we will have to 
leave mathematics and go to English 
Okay then
A nod of your head
Is not convincing 
Okay next time
So long
Tootles

Farmer Haiku

Haiku
The cock crows at four
I listen to its keen caw
Then sleep till eight 

The farmer is up
Starts his infernal tractor
I smell diesel fume

At eleven o`clock
The fishmonger`s white van tootles 
Soon it will be lunch
