PostPoems Be Artistic. Be Creative. Be Inspired!

I listed all the things in the world:

A dervish whirl,

A handsome girl,

A Cadbury's Twirl;

I listed all the things in space:

Sputnik waste,

The moon's dark face,

The furthest, farthest far-off place;

I listed all the things in the soil:

My nanny's bones,

A false plastic hand,

All the toil of all in the land;

I listed all the things in the past:

Smoked the grass,

Ten trillion rats,

All of the many misplaced winter hats;

I listed all the things in the future,

But I'm never too sure,

If things are secure,

With the global rising temperature...

I listed all the things I want,

And apart from a jaunt,

To my local haunt,

With a pint in hand, I'd want for naught.

I listed all the lists I've made,

And the list I made,

I'll take to my grave,

With all my belongings.
