Best Popcorn Poems
A Bag of PopcornThey ask me why I’m so happy
Asking me, if I just won a prize
I replied, well I reckon I did
Today is a wonderful surprise
When you have a past like mine
My today is always bright
There is no better feeling on earth
Than the joy of doing right

Introduction
It’s time to dance, time to tango
There’s a Canadian on the banjo
When he sees the guitar strings
Jack’s mirth grows soaring wings;
As he scans the rhapsody drums
While busy the Banjo he strums!
He strums with finger
Voice doesn’t malinger!
He strums with thumb
He’s loud, he’s not dumb!
There’s...

PopcornPopped, salted and buttered;
Popular at movies;
Perfect with a Coke! IF
Preferred, you can also
Place it in a bowl and
Pour hot syrup on it.
Prepare balls of sweetness!

My Kryptonite Is PopcornWhen dieting, I’m rarely weak. In fact,
I’m Batgirl strong – resisting the allure
of sweet desserts. I’ve never been attacked
by chocolate hunger pangs. I’ve got the cure.
I give myself allowance every day
to taste a little bit of things I crave
since deprivation is the surest way
to get...

Twisted PopcornTwisted popcorn lace decorates
The eastern pale blue sky
A canopy of delight hangs
Miles and miles up high
Upon the eastern horizon
An orange sun seeks to climb
Across the sun streaks of purple clouds
The sun arrives just in time
Apricot jam slathered across
Dripping stickily on pines
Silhouetting an outline there
Of oaks...

Popcorn salty, popcorn sweet
popcorn toffee, luxury treat
popcorn plain, popcorn simple
many sprouted me a pimple
Chew it slow, chew it safe
chew it fast, pull a face
make it last, make it linger
got one stuck on my finger
Hard kernels what I fear
bitten many, brought a tear
tum filled...

PopcornPOPCORN
White kernels of hot popping yummy flavoring,
Cooked in golden butter drippings, lightly sprinkled
To taste with salty perfections gentle touch,
At the kitchen cooks discretion.
The crunchy and munchy treat, to pass
Around at any family social gatherings
Celebration.
Fill up them empty bowls both large
And small heap them full to...

Popcorn CarolynLonely hearted Carolyn
searched long and hard
but couldn't find a man, good or bad
so she went on a popcorn diet.
Popcorn Carolyn attracted many men.
both good and bad,
She jumped on a testosterone carousel of confusion:
she dumped and was dumped upon..
flourished then languished in...

I Smell So GoodThey scoop me up, I smell so good. Others come, and stand in line. People shifting, impatiently.
They pay money, as cash registers sing happily. Wide pleasing smiles appear when they reach for us.
One starts eating me before she returns to her seat. ...
