Best Aligned Poems


The Stars Must Be Aligned
I lay here mesmerised by the sky so immense, 
Observing the stars that are so dense.
The stars must be aligned in this heavenly bliss,
However, I know just by looking, that one is amiss.

Save for those we use, as a birth sign, 
Some remain scattered and...

Premium Member Miss Aligned
My biggest influence was Van Gogh, after he cut off his ear.
For being lopsided and askew is what I don’t fear.
His uneven brush strokes and off-balanced yellow sky
Makes his art intriguing, he simply is the real guy.

I am a cartoonist, a poet, a writer, a...

When the Stars Aligned
Is life predestined? I ponder
Gazing up at the blue sky yonder
The alignment of stars in a certain way
Does favour and fortune our way sway?

Does Fate spin the thread of destiny?
Leo, Virgo, Scorpio or Gemini?
The constellation, the galaxy, the celestial sphere
Star gazing raptly with hope, awe...

Air, Aligned
I wonder how many times a day
Our breathing patterns coincide,
As if my source of life, and yours,
Conspired to keep us both alive....

Premium Member The Stars Aligned That Night
The way our hands explored, the thrill we felt
   Our eyes were glazed, our hearts so wildly throbbed
The chill outside, our eager mouths did melt
   A prelude to romance, sheer passion robbed
  
We fled the streets, abandoning all grace

Planets Aligned  

Planted on a planet 
of alien aims
The planters plan as parents 
Aliens of alien names 

And so goes 
The planters woes 
	The Earth shows
In biopic frames

The day that is done
Leaving no one
	To recon 
all that remains...

Stars Aligned
As my stars align i quiver,
Searching for the next step as i age and wither,

My destiny i try to figure,
Yearing for something bigger,

I slake my thirst through small achievement,
Tears i burst when the timings convenient,

I search for something more,
Scared to settle for a life thats...

Destiny Aligned
The day that we met
It seemed our fates werent to be together
Because i was in a mess
With someone that threw me away after using me 
Then leaving me for death
Things being the same as before i felt like a used,
 Heartbroken and battered door..
Until our...

Confined and Aligned
Confined and Aligned

To one state as a voter we are confined
And with a certain party will be aligned;
Going national,
May be rational,
Or stay in past and time that is behind.

Premium Member Generations Aligned
As I watched our daughter watch her son graduate from college yesterday…
as our three generations aligned
I wondered if she was thinking what I once did…
If my same thoughts crossed her mind.

Was she wondering where the time went?
Was she wondering how fast our children grow?
Was she...

Aligned In Faulted Hands
The tip of a brush is the finger of God
Each stroke a creation
Each movement a chance to bring beauty to an unaltered platform
But when there is a crack in the pavement
The hand of the maker no longer caress the cheek of the brush so daintily
The...

Premium Member Cosmically Aligned Forever
Entered and did not place in ‘ANOTHER 2025 POSTED POEM’ contest. Judged 1/8/2025.


Marriage could not bind us
but the stars would hold their own
aligning us together as soulmates
forever and a day
touched by the cosmos
and remembered with the cyclic sunsets

As We Aligned
God helped remind
Crowned our chest with knowledge
Love was acknowledged
Hurried still while thoughts remained
Life was forever changed
Tranquility of rivene
As we entered the stream
Sense of pure enjoyment
Smiling through every moment
The dream still vivid
With nothing omitted
People who surround
All truth was found
Our hearts of revelation
The souls filtration
Powered back
To see...

Let’s just say
with my husband now having heart troubles and my 
being old (& bedridden while waiting for my new prosthetic-leg) makes for on-going thinking, remembering, observing, reflecting, tentatively concluding, believing
how the ineffable ultimately rules…and one’s

language (for all its commanding need to be used...
