Best Cheers Poems

I had an old auntie called Mable
Who could drink men under the table
She’d tell folks of her gout
Sup up six pints of stout  -
then stagger to the loo when able!

Drank so much that she...

Cheers and Beer for Jan


Anyone knows if Jan drinks beer
Maybe we all should sing her cheer
She is funny and hip
Lets give her a big tip
She is our dazzling queen so dear

I awaken to a lark’s song
 In early morning’s misty light
 Spy it on a branch, softly shaking
 In the gentle breeze, its fewer leaves
 Turned yellow gold
 Surround her so pretty,
 Her song to me. Yes, I know 
the lark sings to me 

Its...

A glass of red wine spilt on cream carpet, I'm upbeat salt will remove the stain!

The glass is always full contest

The birds were feasting
on mutilated remains,
maggots oozed,
from the ruptured veins,
as bodies piled high
of casualties with no names,
ripped flesh,
rancid smell,
guts mesh,
and visions right from hell,
the markings of fear,
written everywhere,
and songs about bombs
bursting in air,
as death hears,
all the war cheers....

Cheers, Poets

No fancy forms will I use tonight.
I just happen to find poetry a most uplifting delight!

So will be thinking of you when 2020 is born.
At twelve A.M when we don hats and blow horns!

We do not know what the New Year brings!
But, I'd be...

poinsettias blooming
on someone else’s mantel -
clearly I see them
guarded by two nutcrackers
and cheered on by crackling fire

LIVE FOR THE CHEERS, DIE BY THE BOOS

"If you live for the cheers 
you'll die by the boos"
Ephemeral joyful pool of tears
exterminate joy and invite foes.
Deceitful applause and wrong peers
are both companions of fools.
Don't live for the world's cares.
Apply your mental tools,
the cheers are thorns...

I pop the cork, smell the perfume

Cheers to the Teenage Years

Heartbreak and Sorrow, 
The complaining never ends
He never called you back 
And you're fighting with your friends

Partying and Hookups
Bullying and  Pain
Breakups and Name-Calling
Teachers driving you insane

Essays and Assignments
Drama and Boys
No more play-dough and snack time
No more barbies and toys

Learning life...

Cheers to Christmas, 
A Joyous Season’s nigh.
Cheers to hot & spicy wassail
Keeping Christmas Spirits high.

Cheers to our Fellow Man.
Best wishes, one & all!
Cheers to Christmas carols,
Chorales of bells chime “Deck the Halls”! 

Cheers to hanging mistletoe,
A holiday kiss at every door.
Cheers to Christmas stockings
Awaiting candy,...

What makes the hiking up mountains more striking?
What makes the driving more fun than arriving?
What makes the ocean-ing worth the sun lotioning?

'Twas a week  before Christmas, when at the Kalikimaka's house, I thought I heard a shout, it must be my boyfriend, quiet like a mouse.
The Christmas tree was dry and had no Tylenol  to survive, he ran out and was up from his...

Blessed are you, this God's great day!
Get up and in the Lord's will, stay
To follow His orders, with faith - don’t delay
First things first… you should pray!!!

Make the most out of this wondrous morning…
Upon His strength, keep on leaning
From inconvenience, quit complaining
Praise God, you’re safe...

Tonight I plan to go out and enjoy my time
With some folks of mine that love red wine
There is no reason to say where we go
It could be a bar, or maybe my own home.

I just want to steal away somewhere no one cares
And enjoy...
