Square Poems - Poems about Square

The clean slate gleams, almost blinding. A stark white canvas where vibrant hues once clashed, or perhaps faded into a tired monochrome. No comforting smudges of the past remain, no familiar landmarks to orient the gaze. There's a strange liberation in this emptiness, a shedding of accumulated weight, the heavy cloak of expectation, the tangled threads of what should have been. But the air...

If I give you today Will you give up tomorrow If I ask you to wander Can direction be saved If I say that I love you Will the words meld the seasons If I surrender this moment Can forever — be gone (The New Room: March, 2025) ...

A circle and a triangle went out to take the air one moonlit night upon Piccadilly Square, and to every heartbeat pound and every footfall plunk, the triangle said, "thunk a thunk a thunk". The circle said not a word, so silently did she move, ever good and graceful, she had nothing to...

What if all our tires were square? Well, we couldn't go here or there! We couldn't go, well, anywhere! If our tires were square... We'd walk everywhere! There wouldn't be much pollution in the air! Airplanes couldn't take off anymore! We'd go back in time, to the dinosaurs! If tires were square.... We'd sail everywhere! Circle shaped tires wouldn't be found. Now, I am glad my...

In the heart of the city, where the rhythm flows, KCCK Jazz Radio, where the magic grows. Man, turn up the dial, let the jazz play, A symphony of legends, lighting up your day. The greats of jazz, their spirits alive, Miles and Ella, they thrive. Old school notes dance with the fresh, A fusion...

When I think of you, I miss you in waves— Memories drift of those first days, When we talked and talked for hours on end, You sparked a fire, my long-lost friend. Like a flame, it grew, strong and bright, With every word, with every night. And when you came over, that was my prayer, The one I waited for, always there. Like a...

Allemande left to your corner; Go right and left grand. When you see your pretty gal, don't squeeze too hard her little hand. Head ladies chain; side ladies too down the middle Your partner ain't no second fiddle. All partners promenade. Don't stop off for lemonade. Do si do your corner; do si do your own. Circle left. Make a ring; no, don't...

A right and a left and around to the back Line up like horses at the track Queen of hearts, Jack of spades, Gee up Neddy and promenade Allemande left with your best front runner Wink at your mate if you've pulled a stunner Lift knees up and dressage round the room It's the old style way to meet a groom Comb your...

Bow to the partner in the corner Hey, this dance ain't nothin' but torture! Heads lean left and circle to a line Guzzle down that old moonshine! Roll away to a half sashay Get down on your knees and pray. Circle round and round with the dear little thing but for God's sakes don't let her sing! Meet your partner and promenade Slip a...

Circle left, hang on tight Don't get caught in an alligator bite Allemande left, what you want to do Is turn that alligator into stew Do-si-do, listen to the band Alligator shoes look mighty grand Roll away to a half sashay If you're a gator, forget what I say Right and left grand, give a kick, Gator eyes fall on a dancing chick Swing your...
