Turnover Poems | Examples

Premium MemberThe Bay

She whispers, ‘Stay’
yet I find myself heading toward the bay

I start with a hike though the woods
if only the way I knew I could

And then the marshes to soak my feet
I’m on my way to a divine treat 

And then there is the entrance to the bay
So little time to release what I have to say

To immerse myself up to my neck
In cooling waters, oh what the heck 

It’s late at night and I see the stars
Will they wish me goodbye so near or far

I hold glimpse to the waxing moon
My spiritual turnover is coming soon 

Will she miss me my darling love
We were soulmates attached from above

I hear the ghostly fisherman’s bell
And now it’s time for me to go to hell

Don’t cry for me today
It was just an outing to the bay

Its your Birthday!

Its your B’day,
Time to be Happy & gay.
Put on that lovely smile & walk that extra mile!
After all the cakes you bake,
The calorie counter is at stake!

Lay down the boots, drop the shoulder.
Take rest, let the mind wander.
alas it’s your day,
Give the ADDA team a break,
Your dedication is doing wonders,
ADDA is growing stronger…

Whip up a Ganache, make a turnover,
Apple or pineapple –nah, do it with durian when not sober!
Deconstruct a pavlova, reimagine an opera,
A pinch here, a dash there,
A drizzle, a flambe…
Life’s boring- create some melodrama!

Dance a tune, declutter the mind,
Don’t play mommy tonight!
The Girls are teens now,
Let them loose today, don’t raise a brow!

Ask Hubby to be at his best,
Toast a bubbly & forget the rest!
Alas, it’s your B’day,
& You deserve the very best!

JUDGED

There is a root behind it.There is shade behind. 
There is a lap behind, Behind those memories,
There is love behind it.
Another turnover makeover the hope,
One chapter opens, another is closed.
I shouted, I shouted, I shouted aloud,

All in me, all of me, I grabbed it all and threw it loud.
A diagram, I made, a hope, I made pragmatically.
Theorems I learned, but they should be understood 
for being learned; how it comes to get something 
another is a must.
So if you want to see your soul, you should make 
your mirror free of dust.

Acceptance and rejections, solutions and hurdles—that is what we call surviving; that is what we call living. 
For some, it is hell; for others, it is heaven.
But we can't judge the book by its cover.
There is accuracy and imperfections in between the chapters. Read it, accept it, but deny the judging and 
accept the procedure of enjoying.

The Expert Hunter

The Father is an expert hunter.
He has 3 sons.
He is about to die.
He wants to turnover his expertise to his sons.
One day, he invites his 3 sons to the field.
He told to his First Son to see a tree.
He said, "Son, what do you see in a tree?"
The First Son said, "Father, I see the fruits that are ripen."
The Father said in his mind, "You fail".
The Second Son was introduce.
The Father said, "Son, what do you see in a tree?"
The Second Son said, "Father, I see thick leaves and branches in it".
The Father in his mind, "You fail".
Then, the last son which is the youngest.
The Father said to his Third Son,
"Son, what do you see in a tree?"
The Third Son said, "Father, I see birds in twigs.
Some birds are eating the fruits".
"Son, get your bow and arrow.
Shoot those birds", the Father said.
The Father smile. In his mind he is happy and proud.
He is happy to die in his estate.

fall inside winter

My turnover, leafy cheek saw and salvaged
From Autumn's remains— this Winter's surgery,
White stitchery for washed-out color; dead cells...
               ...nip bright for scars on

She Has a Special Magic

she has a special magic 
or so it seems to me
in the early morning when i rise
i process the beans in the grinder
a short succession of tasks
the coffee is brewing
aroma of her hint of cinnamon
fills the kitchen
as i wait i look out the window
dawn has erased all the darkened shadows 
the flowers line the property's end
all are ready for the day
i speak their language, tell them to be patient
let me take her coffee and a pastry
she will be with you shortly
it is Saturday and your day with her
tomorrow is Sunday and i am whisking
her away on a picnic
she does this to me you know
everything she touches becomes family
we share conversations about her
the coffee pot is in its last gurgles
remember, cream, one lump i hear
apple turnover, warmed, buttered
the tray is now filled and ready
pushing me to a faster pace
i turn to the coffee pot, thank you
be right back for mine
as i disappear into the hallway
there is a last gurgle, you're welcome
she has a special magic, everything she touches
becomes family to me

Premium MemberA Very Memorable Christmas Present

** A Very Memorable Christmas Present **

Someone made an err::
Boxing Day ‘ere’s 
Been the day of — not after.
What started as the greatest 
Christmas ever, turned 
Us from better to worse
As our tempers grew, altered 
After our fingers were slid into
Those gift-wrapped firm gloves of leather,
Punching through the room’s air
At each other
With words roused from harsh to meaner,
‘Till our referee pup barked 
To end our Round 1, forcing a turnover
Into creating a round of rich laughter.
Re-freshed, happier, remembering our
Proper manners appropriate to honor
Our Savior’s birthday…We resolved
A return trip to the store to trade 
That shared present of boxing gloves for 
A healthier, sturdy set of parallel bars.

Salt Sorta

Sumthang wrong wiff dez words
They give know direction
To me and you
Hypertheticail thoughts
They don't tell me
What I gotta do

Ribeye, broccoli, and potatoes
Cup of gravy on the side!
The Carney, sorney 
Tater, broccoli and
Meat special
Now we know
The garlicky, onion,chivey
Sun dries tomatoes
With olive oil roasted
Red pepper and bacon,
Cream cheesed 
Scalloped potatoes.
Where inspired by a
Lonely man begging a
Woman for a date.
The night he scored they
Dined on these dishes.
She made him to harvest
His cattle 
Potatoes
Pick the broccoli
And pick the
Apples for the
Turnover
She said she:d
Marry him if he
Planted seven
Peach trees
Seven blackberry bushes
And seven rows of
Lavender
She asked for
Twenty male quails
And fourty hens
She'd consimate
If he bought
Jersey cows
Two females
and one male.
And seven rows
Of mulberry
To make scented soap.
He complyed!
They married before
A orchestra of sixty
And seven vocalist
The preacher wore purple
And ate
Red snapper and apple pie.

Turnover

I want to change.

To be a good person.

To trust in  God.

Start doing the right.

And get baptized.

Then I'll be blessed.

In wealth and wisdom.

My reputation will go far.

Will start raising the vulnerable.

People will respect me.

God will bless me more.

When my day will come.

I'll die peacefully.

And go to heaven.

@Kipngeno Robin.

Childhood Sex

CHILDHOOD SEX
	(for D.P.)
Oh, where is she now, love of my life, the woman I adore?
(I was five that summer, and she eighteen–—
in my childish heart of hearts, I had promised to marry,
knowing nothing of heartbreak and the grownup world of desire!)
— she walked up the steps ahead of me—
wearing a pair of those 1940s-style-cut white short-shorts 
like Lana Turner wore in “Postman”: 
and my heart did a tailspin–a turnover–—
from which I have never fully recovered!

The Fifth Brother

The story from Arabian nights and its epitome,
life’s frustrations under our unique heavens dome.
The hero of the tail in luck of a modest legacy,
hundred silver coins from destinies hierarchy.
The brilliant idea to invest in fragile glassware,
taken them to the market to gain from the fare.
As Merchant sitting in the hot sun and musing,
how to pyramid the profit to flow ever oozing.
Two hundred with the first turnover, then four,
Allah wills grand me all and more.
A fine house with eunuchs and horses,
social prestige and influential sources.
Calling the most expensive marriage broker,
for the prime ministers daughter bespoke her.
Indeed all imagination until all length,
in that haughtiness completed strength.
The festive celebration in excellence performance,
bride and groom in gorgeous dresses accordance.
The opening dance a prestige’s protocol,
big steps which need to be floated on.
Striking out in his reverie, kicking fragile wares,
destroying his stock in short shattering affaires.
Make believe and its immortal confidence,
destiny and a muse in sympathy of providence.

On a Skate

Opportunities come and leave on a skate
Falling down doesn't mean it's all because of fate
Failure are supposed to teach you about errors not hate
Getting up is all about never giving at any rate
Things can turnover in any date 
Opportunities come and leave on a skate

Premium MemberSeasons Sonnet

THIS Italian Sonnet does NOT have a regular meter,
has 10 syllables and a rhyming pattern of 
abbaabba, cdecde

SEASONS SONNET

One year old today, pink frosted candle.
Year later, ecstatic, open presents.
At three, twirling dress, snapshot pose frequent.
Five years old, sweet toothless grin a scandal.
Sixteen, the sherbert punch, broad smiles handle.
Twenty-eight, sophic change - adult ascent.
Scowling at forty; fabulous event.
Sixty, blows out big bang roman candle.

Early blades of grass tickle baby feet.
Hopping white bunnies in carrot garden.
Damask leaves nudge the storm of Autumn’s grace.
Mannahlike snowflakes beg a turnover greet.
Seasons divine, but in time, the day’s done.
Shimm’ring eternal light, dawn’s glory-face.

A Digital Era Stage

Digital Era technology
Computer Age machinery
Lost and found 
In the Information Age frown
Taking place, face to face
The desire to do, whatever, in grace
Necessary to get the praise
For speed and space
Of knowledge turnover 
Required for super minded processor 
Gathered and decided 
To influence their devices
On computer reality communication 
By transmitting information
Into a discrete numeric routine
Merry go round machine

Trump Born a Beginner

Trump Born A Beginner

Trump had been  born a beginner;
Prayed at dinner to remain thinner;
He ended being,
Not worth seeing
Is now President and big, fat sinner.

Trump is in another  period of denial;
As President he is constantly on trial;
Habits  bad,
That he had;
Was killed while crossing a wide aisle.

High turnover in Trump  staff started;
Were disturbed and  dearly departed;
Brain retarded;
Must be discarded
Instead of lion became loser hearted.

Jim Horn

Turned out being a big, fat sinner.
