Best Veronica Poems

Somewhere in the hills o'er yonder
My hear beats louder than the thunder
And day and night it roams and wonder
Why did we begin to fall assunder.
Sometimes when the moon is bright. I
Press her to my lips in prayer
For we must dance again before we die
While moon...

How can something be amazing and terrifying at the same time? 
I have a wife and three kids
no, wait that's my imagination running wild
I have a girlfriend, my world of a month now
but I've chased her for years of 6
She's been twice out of my...

Central Park has grizzly bears
(Don’t worry – in the zoo)
Residing in the habitat
The polar bear once knew.

While visiting the park today
I saw them in their lair;
With one asleep and one stretched out,
They didn’t seem to care.

Their given names, to comic buffs,
Will bring a little smile,
As...

Veronica
You have a way that pulls on gram-as heart strings
Bringing me so much joy and pleasure
For it is you that makes gram-as heart sing
Your gram-as little treasure
You bring a smile in little things you say 
Or a laugh in little things you do
Your the sunshine...

I was sitting a the edge of the bar
thinking of my new car.
I saw her
she asked me to dance
I loved her at first glance.
She told me her was Veronica.

and every day Hanukkah
with my Veronica.

Every day is Christmas

You are old I am young
You have love I have none.
"Look. Look at those flocks of birds emigrating south! 
They’re escaping with regular wing beats, crying farewell."
Tomorrow would be a good day to die 
Today a good tomorrow
Dying must be strange, nonsense life is strange
We...

Veronica, Veronica
Valerie, Valerie
oh! blond hair and perky breasts
tan legs and hot lips
when oh when will you be mine
not my girlfriend
no you're not that kind
but I have a use for you
and though it's a shame
after all I'm only a man
who can I be to blame
your soft...

Why did Archie keep running after Veronica?
Betty was the nice one.
And she was blonde.

Why was Reggie’s mouth always drawn into a sneer?
Did they want him to look cruel?
Why did they want Jughead to appear stupid?

Oddly enough, I never questioned why
Betty and Veronica were both drawn...

Archie Andrews
Lots of girls from whom to choose,
But one young lady caught his eye
For her he could be the lucky guy.

Veronica Lodge
Would never our Archie dodge
She was always his girlfriend
From the beginning to the end.

Very vivacious and vibrant
Elegant and eloquent as ever
Radiant as the spring sun 
Overall, amazing and odd in a good way I must say
Never fails to amaze me...allow me to smile in sunlit glee
Invigorating and intriguing always and forever
Change is a challenging chore, but nothing is...

He woke up in the middle of the dream again.
She was wearing the same blue-red suit. 
Her brunette hair was scooped up, off her neck.
She was walking with a lively step, on heels.
He was intrigued. The heels were painted red on their bottoms.

Where were they?...

This is the saga of Veronica Vole
Who committed the perfect crime.
She murdered three lovers,
But not all at once,
She did 'em in one at a time.

The first was a lemur,
A two-timing schemer,
Who seduced all thirteen of her nieces.
Every female enticed him,
So she sliced him and diced...

   Jughead even played his harmonica ~
     But Veronica’s Jewish
     Leaving two suitors bluish ~
   Steinberg made her latkes for Chanukah
