Best Cricket Poems

It’s not enough to have a Dragon plus his penguins and pigeons, too?
Darn it! I had a limit, until a cute Cuddling Cricket found my shoe.
He was just a little baby, who saw the pigeons and decided to hide.
Now, he won’t let go of my...

Hold me low, pin me under 
Says the cricket to the thunder
In vibration intonation
Sacred sonic open eyes     
Under fern and forest flurry
Fits of fire feed the fury
In the garden of the jury
~The cricket king defies

Hear me deep, breath my name
If you...

THE CRICKET  


chirp chirp!


Visions of my past why are they following me?

Leave me the h3!! Alone,

Let me be, the earth is my home. 

I am not willing to fly free allowing my deception to roam free.

A passion I no longer see.

A Long, Long Time ago, there was a cricket whose name
was Blue, she was named after the sky that she loved so true. 
All day long she would look up at the sky while the other 
crickets played and hopped merrily on by.

Even beneath my fence that is a picket;
Grass is dying;

His bat willow three springs and all
Ours a joke no umpire to call
Yet did dream of 'Lords' having took a wicket.

I was cleaning my garden bed one day
when a lovely bright green cricket had 
a word or two to me, to say.

At first my eyes was full of wonder
how could this cricket be talking to me,
I was lost in ponder.

He looked as though he had...

Alone in my room...
Bored and hungry
With no food to consume

I look at a corner...
A cricket
"Hello, Jimmy, it's an honour."

My room became his...
My new room-mate
My heart was filled wit bliss

Day 3, knocked off at five
Jimmy still in my room
"Come on, let's get you a wife."

I offered...

Cricket - Haiku

forest, rainless storm rages

Each year in August the teams descend, cricket foe morphing quickly to friend,
Bonds are forged on a pitch unique, camped on the banks of Reedybrook creek. 
The grass is cut, the fields set out, the umpires shout, ‘Fair play gents, otherwise, you’re out!’
Of drinks consumed,...
