Best Alright Poems

I grew up shooting pool and dancing on the bar
 Mama said with enough buise anyone could be a star
 Daddy was in the back room chasin' skirts
 Mama was in the parking lot dancin' with Mary Jane just to mask the hurt

 I've spent...

Everything's going to be alright

Maybe you have forgotten…
that, it will all work out!
It’s hard to see, when everything goes wrong,
just what it’s all about.

Yes, we’ve all had our troubles…
in this, our sorry state
Our imperfections, they blur our vision, 
of our future happy fate

Chorus
Everything’s going to...

The wind blows it’s gentle breeze,
Rustling leaves here and there,
A horn beeps then another,
The city cries, why me, where.
 
Bring back the time,
Bring back the joy,
Know you are mine,
Children playing, catch my, toy.
 
Beauty all around,
Flowers still blooming,
Some so profound,
Winter is coming, she is, going.

"Everything is gonna be alright".
A simple writing stared at me from wall.
Somebody drew it. Why, for whom? Don't know.
And what they meant by it, if anything at all.
.
A busy day, its noise - tried push me out.
I had to rush, fulfill, complete and run around.
How...

Everything will be alright, 
A sentence I didn't hear very often
When you hear it, what does it make you feel? 

Is it a calmness that fulfills you? 
I want to know what that feels like 
I once had these words whispered to me 
But all...

The U.K. announced another lockdown and Jack thought oh my golly
So he headed down to his local store , determined to fill his trolley
At the loo rolls aisle his face lit up, he grabbed fifty for himself 
And with a mocking laugh and a grin,...

It's the hardest thing
I ever had to do
You asked me how I felt
And I lied to you

I can't tell you the truth
So I deal with the pain
But when I am alone
My tears fall like rain

So I said it's alright
And I said I'm okay
But I know...

When hope hides its face
In the shadows, the shades
Of worry and fear, painful
Dread and despair…
Listen to the whisper
Of His voice, His stillness!

When joy is far away
Beneath the darkness, the gloom
Coloring lives in hues of gray
Dimming the soft, gold sun
With a dull, grim sadness
A silent melancholy
Remember...

I want to read a book
That's never been read
Hear a gentle word
That's never been said
I want to sit back
And close my eyes
When I open them up
Everything is alright

I want to ring a bell 
That's never been rung
Sing along to a song
That's never been sung
Pull back...

“Just a simple little ditty, not too long and not so witty, but a feel-good sweet refrain that I’m proud of all the same.” — Poet

I feel alright when I write
doesn’t matter day or night
Writing helps me clear my head
helps me sort all things I...

Before I go, I want you to know
That I’ll be alright, heading into the light

I can feel it in my heart tonight
The loving feeling tells me its alright
I know my way into your soul
Knowing our hearts will never let go

When I go, I need you...

It's gettin' late and

This is a love 
that is bitter as citrus
that leaves me burning coldly
bowed head, clenched fists
on a park bench 
in the middle of winter

The people see
but they can't help it
they can't help me from falling
so they walk by with 
shadows spinning 
like spiderwebs in their...

“Okay then, alright then, toodle-loo, bye-bye!”
Sure love to hear that again
My first wife would end each phone conversation
With this familiar old refrain

Once uttering these words of sheer finality 
It was over, finis, a done deal
Even though their words are heard trailing off
Time's up, no chance...

Alright

Alright, enough already!!
I’ve taken all I can
Of these missiles of misfortune
Aimed at me by man,
You’ve targeted my health, my wealth, 
My family and my friends.
Methodically destroying 
Everything you can.
Poisoning my lowly life 
One bombshell at a time.
Stripping me of all support, 
No matter how unkind.
I...
