Best Accomplished Poems

I was a skilled, dedicated CIA agent, helping to preserve national security,
By searching for and garnering information, as silvery rain ensures purity.

Days were spent perusing foreign material, or viewing international news,
Like walking a maze of crooked, green paths, in a pair of fancy red shoes.

I...

Made a batch of cornbread Saturday morning.

Mixed the cornbread with clams and nuts to make stuffing.

Surrounded and filled the turkey with onions and stuffing;

Having done my part there, my wife did the cooking.

I chopped up the turkey gizzard and liver,

And fried them with chopped onions...

Woke up this morning,
To a bright, cheerful day,
And this is what I accomplished today:

Sat down with my Bible,
took time to pray.
Asked for God's guidance,
and blessings for the day.
Ate pancakes and bacon,
(a rare breakfast treat),
then showered and dressed,
made the house neat.
Picked up my cell phone,
called daughter-in-law...

My accomplish are very small throughout the  daytime
Senior and retired, I have to remember to make sure I don’t forget to take my pills
Memory is short and cannot  focus

Seven fifteen  in the morning comes around very quickly,
especially when I go to bed...

The bright sun chasing night awakes me with delight
Arising from my sleepy state is a terrible plight  

Dragging forth to brush my tangled pressed down gray hair
Eyes barely open, stumble forth needing java juice and air  

Turned on the computer to check emails...

What I Accomplished

Today I made my way to school
I sat in back and played it cool.
I think of all I might have missed
and then I put them in a list.

Timmy told on Tommy for telling big fat lies
just below the window sill I found three...

What I had planned for the day is no longer an option for me.
20 minutes on a full body vibration machine
30 minutes in a sauna. Same for the oxygen bar.
A free lunch with my friend, but I cannot get to my car.
It has been pouring...

I said I’d wake at dawn
And mow the shaggy lawn,
I said I’d clear the shed
And weed the flower  bed,
I said I’d press her clothes
And wash her pantyhose,
I said I’d clean the rooms
And clear the musty fumes,
I said I’d cook the lunch -
But now we...

I set a small goal today

One that could be accomplished

However when I set out on my journey

The goal became monstrous

I thought isn't this the likelihood

The Universe keeping me in check

Making sure my convictions are something I respect

 

I set a small goal this morning

With a...

Today I accomplished after a sustained effort
I wanted to set my mind free of all its dirt
I got rid of all,  that's redundant
The baggage of experience that's abundant

Anger, hate, envy and jealousy
Myths, confusion, illusion and fallacy
Laxity, mess, incoherence and insanity
Chaos, clutter, dishevel and obscurity
Dogmas,...

English Sonnet

 A speck of dust had life breathed into it
 A willing volunteer a soul of love
 Conceived of lust, love, trust and light spirit
 Trip impossible without God above 

 Arrival endured treacherous journey
 Brilliant light at the end of the tunnel
 Caressing...

Mission Accomplished – for contest


For if we are only human
we have separated ourselves
from our divinity

re-created ourselves
in our own disfigured
images and likeness’

gone forth preaching
to all nations the truth
of our godless inhumanity

At least I hope so Looking back
As I lay my head on pillow
Close my eyes and hit the sack

Glad my body could still work
Walked into...

In order to do so 10 steps must be put into play
and these 10 steps are in place in America today.
