No Poetry Lately

I haven't written any poetry lately.  I am working on getting some inspiration for some poems.  Prayerfully, it won't be long.

Will They Ever Know?
I was at a party the other night.
Hair flawless, make-up great, outfit just right.
Walked into the building, fashionable as could be.
Looked around, to and fro, to see who I could see,
Two familiar faces, two friendly smiles.
Another person I recognize, a nod this time, no smile.
I walk around a time or two.
Feeling very lonely because no one, I really knew.
Grabbed a treated, tasted it, a fanciful delight.
Taste another, perhaps I shouldn't, well, one more bite.
People stare, I know they know me.
They see me all the time. But they never talk to me.
Will they ever talk to me? Will they ever know?
Will they ever see me? I'm not even sho'.
I'm tired of being here, but it's too early to leave.
No one knows me so there's no reason to cleave.
If I walk out now, will they ever know?
If they don't see me, will they want to know?
If I fade away, will they really care?
If I never come again, will they just use a spare?
I guess I'll just go ahead and go.
Perhaps later, I will learn what they know.

Rainy, Dreary, and Scary
Rain falls all around me.
The sky is black as night.
Children crying, noisy as can be.
Each one filled with fright.
When will this nightmare end?
I want to see some sunlight.

Summer Breeze
Hot air all around,
Sweat runs from my brow.
Water from the hose won't cool,
Perhaps cold milk from a cow.
Just then a cool calm wind,
Breathes easy on me.
Gladly running again,
Down to the water's edge.
Smiling at the Summer Breeze,
Not to forget her, I pledge.

Spring Time Kiss
A smack on the lips,
A gentle breeze in the air.
Spring time just kissed up,
We have not a care.
Birds coming back home to nest,
Whistling their special song.
With flowers growing everywhere,
We know winter is gone.

Winter Storm
The wind blows briskly,
The air is filled with ice.
Kids all bundled up,
The snow is very nice.
Men scrap windows,
Shovel sidewalks alike.
Children rolling in snow,
Making snow angels, what a sight!
There was a storm here last night,
But the children don't care.
There's no school,
And there's fun in the air.

What If...
What if...
The world was flat.

What if...
The letter "l" was fat.

What if...
My eyes were blue.

What if...
Fake friends were really true.

Would the world be any different?

Would things change?

Would people be nicer?

Would things remain the same?

What if...
We were nicer to everyone we meet.

What if...
We didn't waste most of the food we eat.

What if...
My hair wasn't brown.

What if...
Life didn't sometimes get me down.

The world around me changes.

I manage to stay the same.

The world is growing meaner.

Who is to blame?

My Yellow Hat
"Try on the hat in the box,"
My sister wrote on the yellow note.
I did just that.
Now, that I have it on, I may just vote.

I Don't Play
"I don't play!"
That's what the woman always says.
She doesn't laugh.
No way, no how.
She doesn't laugh.
"Who is the dark brother?"
That woman asks.
"I believe he is the man."
Matters not to the woman,
You best believe.
"He betta not mess with me.
Cause, I don't play!"

Elephants Don't Ride Bikes
The elephant came.
The elephant saw a bike.
The elephant ponder.
The elephant might.
He went to the window.
He came through the door.
He went under the table.
Or was it through the floor.
He went outside.
He stopped at the bike.
Oh, how he wants to go for a ride.

The Little Green Butterfly
The little green butterfly ventures through the snow.
Little does she know that playing during winter is a no-no.
She flips, she turns, she spins, she plays.
Looking for a spot of green upon which to lay.
For a small bite to eat, she frantically seeks.
But none to be found, not even on the mountain peak.
We see her play, we see her fly.
Eventually, we will see her die.

Who Cares For Me?
Life is new,
But words get old.

I know some people,
Who are truly bold.

Haven't call me,
Since yonder years.

She's having a baby,
Now, she sends me cheers.

Trying to be nice,
But it's hard you see.

Until they want something,
No one cares for me.
