Best Nut Poems


If You Weren'T Such a Nut Meg
She had so many chances
     Yet she kept muffin it up
Butter intentions were good
     Just not much coffee in her cup

Couldn’t make a good decision
     Too much waffling back and forth
Always peppered with...

My Fifty Years In a Nut Shell
I was born fifty years ago on April 10th 1964
Looking back through the years I began to explore

My mama said when it was time for me to be born
I decided to come early and fast in the wee morn

Born five week premature with jaundice I...

I Had a Little Nut Tree
I   HAD   A   LITTLE   NUT   TREE

I had a little-nut tree
Nothing would it bear
But a silver nutmeg
And a golden pear.
The King of Spain’s daughter 
Came to list me:
She'd heard about my little-nuts 
And simply wanted to...

Premium Member The Smile of a Nut-Brown Squirrel
A nut-brown squirrel wore his smile in a curl,
such a clever one was he.

He ate nuts and fruit in his nut-brown suit
in my avocado tree.

He gave me such lip, and never did tip,
and ate my harvest for free....

Banana-nut bread
Sliced
Carried in the hand 
All through the house

Crumbs 
Dropped along the way
I wonder how long a mouse
Could survive on the crumbs

You would think
Slice, place on a plate
Get a fork
Sit down, eat and enjoy

But no
Carry it in the hands
All through the house
Is the best way...

World Wide Wacky Dot Leaders Dot Nut
Let’s look at our wars, rebellions,
riots and disturbances
which have been burning our world up till now.
Baghdad, Jerusalem, Gaza, West Bank, Mindanao,
Ambon, Aceh and many other places in the world
have been burnt out.
So much blood has shed
Too many lives have lost in vain
What have we really...

Premium Member Golf Nut
On the course it's pouring down rain.

 Anyone would think he's insane.

but a ball in a hole

is his joyful goal.

 I think golf has addled his brain.

Premium Member Up the Tree Laughing At Me a Little Squirrel Eating His Nut
a squirrel climbs the tree
squeaks,squeals, chee chee squawks at me
has a nut in mouth

apparent he's not sharing
he's just chirping chattering 
giving me the eye

chee chee chee chee chee
gnawing at the nut in mouth
this squirrel in a tree

chee chee laughs at me
while in his little paw...

~Chocolate Nut~ 
(Rhyme ) 


I am a chocolate nut 
I like them all and so what? 
I eat them in a rut 
And I enjoy them in a hut 

I buy them in a store, 
I eat them when I'm bore 
And always want more...

Nut-Ricious Nutty Poetry
Most people go bananas 
over chocolate
I'm well nuts about nuts 
as well
Stuff them in chocolate
ice-cream or sherbet.

Yeah munch on peanuts
brunch on hazelnuts
Ah lunch on pecan nuts
or crunch on chestnuts

For nuts could never 
drive one nuts
Ironically nutters 
perhaps never ate them
A nutcase perhaps never 
pried open
a...

Ode To the Nut
I’m not crazy I’m insane.
   Kind of goofy, have no brain.
Goofy is as goofy does.
    Can’t remember who I was.
Happy yes or happy no. 
    Here I am and there I go.
Looney toons is just my way.

There has always been an inter-outer over-under tender balance of loveless socio-equations as they super fit the psychosocial sexe-endices in this modern garner of pluses/minuses/bytes and scribbles mostly incommunicado inexperience and parental impreciseness as to, "anything planned", which in tomb leaves us doth a deranged...

Premium Member Not Without a Washer
Something minute had been carefully tucked away, it was a nut
Got loose, rolled helplessly away, had no direction afraid, she shut
Her eyes, and slowly rolled towards a destined force,
An eager bolt nearby bolt gave her the eye, she thought to pause,
She looked at him said...
