Carol Pelletier Poems

I help warm the bench and cheer for my team.
I join in the huddles and listen and scheme.

I line up and join in the Star Spangled Banner
...

Accompany me and listen to the music of the singing, dancing river rushing on its way to the rocky ridge.

Feel the cool spray of the river shower as it tumbles over the jagged rocks of the falls.
...

Country living suits me so fine.
You have your place and I have mine.
Don't misunderstand
Nor be mislead.
...

Come quickly with me lest the sun sinks into the luring west!

So there's light to see where an eagle built its lofty nest.
...

Red-winged blackbird in the tree,
Sing a song along with me.

Sing of songs of yesterday,
...

I'm dumping my pain in the back of my truck
Taking it out for a cruise.
I'll be driving all night
Maybe all day.
...

It takes a certain type of soul to live in a wooded spot,
Where neighbors are quite far away,
Not on a nearby lot.
...

I am having an affair.

The wind kisses my lips and runs its soothing breeze tenderly through my hair releasing me from restless feelings of anxiety.
...

My? birthday is too darned near!
I'm dreading that day, let me make it clear.
When I was younger I had no clue
That age would change my point of view.
...

A turkey I'm not! I'm happy to say,
To be one would ruin my Thanksgiving Day.
If I was I'd rebel and change the tradition
to one less barbaric with a better condition.
...

My shadow needs a name of her own
So she knows who she is when she's all alone.

Her name must suit the things she does.
...

The Best Poem Of Carol Pelletier

Super Basketball Son

I help warm the bench and cheer for my team.
I join in the huddles and listen and scheme.

I line up and join in the Star Spangled Banner
With the rest of the team in a very proud manner.

I wait for a beckon from my coaches hand
As I check out the cheerleaders or watch the pep band.

Coach looks at me, a starter needs rest.
My heart pounds like I'm taking a test!

I look down the bench, coach can't want me!
Oh why do have this darn shaky knee?

I kneel and tell the scorekeeper my name.
I cannot believe it, I'm now in the game!

The fans are cheering and clapping their hands!
In awe, I want to gape at the stands.

I feel like waving at my mom and my dad.
It's me out here, your lanky young lad! '

The moment has come to show my stuff!
But alas, time flies and coach says, 'Enough.'

With a pat on my back and the words, 'Well done! '
Such a short time to be 'Super Basketball Son! '

'You did your job and did it well!
Relief to a starter you gave for a spell.
He will help win the game because of you.
Starters are parts, bench warmers the glue! '
