Practicing Poetess Poems

Don't blow in my ear, please
It makes me weak in my knees
Blow in my ear, and I'll follow you anywhere
I lose my inhibitions, and I cease to care
...

When people look at him and me,
They think we are a pair
But things are not as they appear,
And life is so unfair.
...

You're searching for love
In all the wrong places
Wouldn't know it, if you saw it
Hidden in a million faces
...

A long, long time ago,
Before the advent of t.v.
Or even radio,
Things were done much differently.
...

I wish that I believed in me
The way that you do.
You make me beautiful.
...

Not yet a woman; no longer a girl,
Caught in a challenging, in-between world.
Too old for dolls; too young to go steady
Wondering if you'll ever be ready.
...

The lonely young girl never cried
On the day her mother died.
Of her, the mother was not fond
So, there was no maternal bond.
...

My neighbours are rude
They're loud, and they're crude.
Every time I hear a bump,
I practically jump
...

Even little toddlers
Slip sometimes
When proudly learning to walk.
So think of it that way
...

Would you rather be safe, or free?
I know what my answer would be.
You're safe in prison, under lock and key,
But that existence would never suit me.
