Zig Poems

Premium MemberZig-zag

Zig-zag, zig-zag, what’s coming next?
Just corners, twists and bumps, 
No glimpse, no signposted clear path,
Just loads of holes and humps.

Day after day, just up and down
And twisting round and round,
No indication anywhere
Of where the end is found.

So much of life zig-zags around
Surprising frights and fears,
Uncertainties, anxieties,
And even desperate tears.

But stop! Just look! A bright new

Premium MemberAlphabet Zig Zag

Again, I take my pen in hand.
Bring words to mind, so I can plan.
Compose a verse quite fresh and new!
Deciding on what style to do?
Each letter then I will suggest,
Flows quickly through the alphabet.
Great, this shall give me loads of choice,
Hoping you out there hear my voice.
In-case you don’t I’ll write it down
Just to ensure

I see the wake 
of what I look at
objects casting ripples
through the sea 
of visual fields
like a boat or Nessy
cutting water
in zig zags
its trail allowing 
secrets, coloured 
kaleidoscope waves
rips and tears
peep holes no less
an honoured glimpse
into the mechanics
of reality, I hope
nobody up there
gets into trouble
for showing me
things they shouldn’t
how things are working
behind the scenes

Give no chance to be depressed 
Bow not in lovely mess!

Premium MemberFalling Leaves

Yellowish-red  leaves falling
Persuaded by the weather
Carried by the wind
Falling 
To the ground 
To the neighbourhood
To the lane
To the river
On my palms
Oh
What a beautiful zig-zag shape
What a dazzling colour of the sun
Is to be kept
Just as a memory 
Sad or happy
Is an experience in the life we lead 
A milestone of the journey on earth

That Zags With a Zig

Had a thought that was after
not sure if it was after definitely not before noon
the effect that came after was witnessed
every where
the sight of the eye
the ache of the ear
the bird that was mocking
the frog that leaps
full of forget
joy never stuck
struck was the moon
set was the sun
all the kill was over
forward never straight
scaled every time
the

The piglet is a baby pig
As far as it appears
The wiglet is a tiny wig
That fits on tiny ears
The ziglet is a little zig
But only when it veers.

Zig-Zag

How was I to know a lightning bolt
would zig-zag into me? My body lies there on the ground,
a nurse, doing CPR.
Shocked voices. All eyes focused on the victim.
	
While over the way, I stand. Separate. Watching. 
I move to tap a friend’s shoulder, saying,  that’s me. But my hand
goes straight through. Spooked. Why doesn’t he

Zig-Zag

Downtown or on the roadway
zig-zag searching
always for something..
Stopping at a coffeeshop 
reaching a place
seemingly removed..
An interruption in
a zig-zag map
with map forgotten..
The coffeeshop was not
a zig stop..or a zag
just momentary..a respite..
Might zig-zag dissolve
right here and now
 in this cup of coffee...?

The Purple and White Zig Zagged Kite

It was 4:04, late in the afternoon,
My mom shouted, honey please come in soon.
There was supposedly a storm nearby that was pretty heavy,
Little did I know that it was just beyond that brand new Chevy.
Before I knew it, the storm hit the Jones’s home,
The storm was just starting its long and deadly roam.  
The
