Best Swift Poems

My precious chimney swift
Envy alone
Has named you so mundane
Tethered to the slightest pause
Amid your life upon the wing
Describing you as drab
Cigar shaped
And flying like a bat
While within me 
Your beauty burns
And I thank you so for that
For from my human complications
The conditions of my sin
You...

swift, swift, the rills do run
          swift, from high the mountain
               swifter, tho', the running years
     flowing through...

"I loooove Taylor Swift. I'm a devoted Swiftie." 
"GAAA! Why didn't you tell me that on the first date?" 
"Excuse me?"
"Look, I'm a classic rock guy, you know, Bad Company, Queen, Zep." 
"ARE YOU TELLING ME THAT YOU DON'T LIKE TAY TAY?" 
"Hey c'mon babe,...

When Swift, "Bird of Hermes", Its Last Flight Takes

When swift "Bird of Hermes" its fast flight takes
path through nether worlds, its tall broken stones
phantom from Olympic heights swiftly breaks,
to survive ancient gods's dying groans.

Into earthen world, flashing flaming wings
from behind echoes of thunder and light
as...

How to stop swift and stealthy time that brings death?
Must we think only of victories, not defeats
and deny that all we posses will be lost as wealth?
Disease and age are our enemies...doesn't health control heartbeats?
Spread those tables and enjoy your food and wine,
dance and sing...

Ever flying, never ceasing, ever soaring, speed increasing,
Two sharp scythes by your side,
Leaving land behind

Journeying over land and sea,
Flying high, flying free,
Super speed, velocity,
Hawking prey incredibly.

In the air you make a rift,
With your pointed scythe-like wings
Ever moving sinuously swift,
In the air you are the king.

In...

A poet comes; a poet goes
  There are many of us now
    You know  

Yet at times one leaves
  And we all grieve
    The loss of that
      Only he can weave

Such...

White rapids rushing for the falls,
Morgan horses loosed from their stalls,
From fragrant sunsets to nightfalls,
Songbirds answering southern calls.

Precious moments of golden hours,
Butterflies midst cherry flowers,
Rainbow's appearance with colors,
Sun and silver moon encounters,

The time it takes for love to grow,
The time it takes for winds to...

Swift, fleet, written be
This poem flies here from me

Ode to Taylor Swift and the Car Park Incident

Today I saw the most ridiculous thing 
Taylor Swift existing backwards from a car park 
So she wouldn’t be seen 
On her un-best side that is
Does she look beautiful on one side 
And from the other a...

Up on the hill I found my joy
on grass of green and gold
I would roll down when a young boy
for I was fast and bold.

Oh how we'd play from dawn to dusk
in torn pants and bare feet
The day a thrill when winds were brusque
yes we...

Jonathan Swift's
priorities could sell for a dime,
for his greatest wish
was to be big and small, all at the same time.



NOTE: Jonathan Swift was the author of Gulliver's Travels....

Rants do not make great songs
Rosanne Barr I am sorry to say
not so great in a thong
when you sell no tickets
you have no show

Unless you on the side streets of cali
among peepers and creepers
then ticket sales of two are no crime
if you over and above...

Spots,
swift feet.
a jaguar runs;
silent hunter,
leaps.
