Best Group Poems

Our Little Group
   by Bob (Robert) Moore © 2016
I love to read the poetry, 
the verse, the rhyme, the symmetry
it’s there for all the world to see, 
I love to read the poetry

We started up a group you know, 
so we could let...

poetrysoup must finely flourish
This is my most sincere wish
Her difficulties give me anguish
She helps swim every poet-fish

By giving the site my best write
I must supply minds bright light
The site provides enough delight
I must take her to a great height

For a long time the site never...

Laura my friend from the past

Has reappeared after ten long years

She was my first real friend

Here on the Soup and never forgotten

I was a little apprehensive

About joining coz of my inexperience

But Laura was one of the first

To put my old heart at ease  

Inviting...

When put into groups I know that I never have to worry or  step up because there is always an A1. 
Arrogant One reaches for the group paper
And the one blue marker, because 
She or he knows that no one can do anything as...

hey God!
look at this mess
we have down here,
can you believe it?

you told us to 
to create a better world
and boy,
have we blown it

can you forgive us
and help us try again
the only thing is, God,
people are angry with hard hearts

touch everyone's heart God

Joining a tour you meet people
Who may not be like you at all – 
Politically, age-wise and maybe
With views that repel or appall.

Religion’s another divider
As well as the places you live
And quickly, you’ll learn who’s not social
Or those who have much they can give.

But mostly,...

Hotel stays when we
     all must go; broken phone but
            the Ice is cold!...

AUTUMN LEAVES-GROUP OF TEN COLLEGE MATES
==============

Summer ends, Autumn comes,
Days become shorter and shorter.
The green in the leaves fades away,
And red and orange take its place.

"Autumn Leaves" is a group of ten leaves,
Sprouted at Peradeniya fifty five years back.
Started meeting once a month with pot luck,...

Midgeted paws gently experiment 
with the silken whiskers of their maternal dynamo
  
Dabbling with the conscious but succumbing 
softly to the confetti of uninhibited dreams

Rejoicing in a triangle of togetherness  
Basking in the periwinkles of space and time
 
Under a backdrop of light...

Hey everyone it’s me again
thanks for having me present
I’ll do my best not to offend
as I share and truthfully admit
I get dumb when I don't attend
can’t get past simple words like….

“happy” and “sad” “now” and “then”

Just the other day I went mainstream
and for an hour...

It's beautiful, the whole dam business, the circle, 
the new and distant friends, the words formed, 
which blow away; like Zeek and Ike and Calloway; 
and the dark sky, rests; and I find a jilted tree, not 
far from the buzz, and the busy blue-breezed,...

One day, Brad felt overwhelmingly sad
The next day Brad was raging mad
Following this day, Brad was feeling glad
This was the best day that Brad had had

One day, Suzy had been crying all day long
The next day Suzy was cheerily singing a song
Following this day, Suzy...
